So get back to work,
Motherf****r.

(Contains enough paracetemol to kill a big blue whale)"

I realy do put some advertising execs in the same pen with Ax murderes and thievies, they take a little bit away from you for someone else. Damb

Ooh, nice smilie didn't know that one was there.

Yes admen get on peoples nerves because most of the time they tryand convince you that what there ofering is what you need, when in fact if you know about a product your more likly to buy it when you need it because you haven't saw adverts.
