Del Zeppnile Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Do you ever look at the way things are going with a thing and just say "FUBAR!" Share with me your experiences about the FUBAR in your life? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Zeppnile Posted March 17, 2008 Author Share Posted March 17, 2008 Fubar, that's a brilliant word! Isn't it. At work I have officially made all Fridays "FUBAR FRIDAY" ... a day to scorn and ridicule for my boss and his assclown attempts at managment. By the way, I'm studying One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest at the moment . Any tips? Yeah, don't get drunk and fall to sleep with a hooker.

TheZeppyWanderer Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 At work I have officially made all Fridays "FUBAR FRIDAY" A working Friday in the UK is " POETS DAY " .... ( Piss Off Early Tomorrow's Saturday), for those who are unfamiliar. I would nominate FUBAR day as the day when your team loses (again !) (usually on a weekend, and makes it (all the more) unbearable going to work on Monday, and having to put up with some of your smug, sniggering, so-called workmates.

L 7 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 FUBAR Is my standard of living. Everything is going up in price except my salary. Gasoline, taxes, food. Its out of control. I had to sell the Yosemite Sam mudflaps that WERE on my F-150 pick-up. My kid won`t get braces and will have to endure the taunts of "BUCK TEETH". My dog can forget Alpo and have to eat that 100 pound bag of cheap dog food I bought at Walmart. You should have the look on the poor little guy`s face I walked with that! I wonder how long it will take him to eat all. Hell I might be sharing it with him. Speaking of Walmart, I have been reduced to shopping there. I want to punch those door greeters or whatever they are called. If this continues, I will fall from middle class to white trash. Like a retro George Jefferson. Fish don`t fry in my kitchen Ain`t no beans on the grill Took a whole lot of tryin` Just to pay the water bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rover Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) The FUBAR is FUBAR..... after the Crane crushed it the other day..... "FUBAR offered a heavy drinking atmosphere, hence the name - which stands for "F*&%* Up Beyond All Recognition". While this may not be your goal, it seems to happen quite often here. It could be because the drinks are the cheapest in mid-town, or due to the encouragement of the friendly, pro-party staff. While you’re "getting your drink on", youcan snack on some free fresh popcorn, enjoy our video games, jukebox or pool table." The FUBAR was located between the two building left standing.

BO-HICA I use that one around work too! We have this general manager that has a bad case of LMS (Little Man Syndrome) and a Johnny Bravo haircut. He's always trying to display his "importance" by micromanaging all the departments, even though we have competent managers in place. Every time we see him come around the corner we all say "BO-HICA!!" He's heard it a couple of times, but hasn't figured it out yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redrum Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 I bought a motorcycle engine back in the 90's that was as FUBAR as they come. I wanted to FUBAR the asshole that sold it to me. (me and hundreds of others that he ripped off) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsRobertPlant Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Cheers, I'll remember that for my final exam I absolutely love that book, I know it like the back of my hand so feel free to PM me if you need help. Remember the underlying theme of "the establishment" in the novel, which relates to the time period Kesey wrote it (60s) and its represented by Nurse Ratched!

Del Zeppnile Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 I just finished my taxes and it's FUBAR! So it looks like that tax refund everyone is supposed to be getting doesn't apply to people who have jobs, work hard, save and invest money, and pretty much are not complete fucktards. Just like the $1000. child tax credit that we never get, my wife and I are not getting shit on this deal either. Our tax system in this country is FUBAR! Some people are going to need to learn how to get buy without the rest of us paying for thier sorry asses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody feel sorry for Del.. he's got everything he needs, and more, and yet (even though he claims to be Christian) he's upset that a portion of what he earns goes to those who are far less fortunate than himself. Are you feeling his pain yet? Del, you should venture outside your ivory tower sometime so you can see what life is like for people who don't live in utter abundance, as you do. Maybe you'd see how embarrassingly silly, selfish, and misguided your protestations are. Even if you think you don't live in utter abundance, the fact of the matter is that you do,.. compared to most of the population of this country, and certainly compared to most of the population of this planet. Be grateful for all that you have, brother, and stop whining about some of what you earn going to those who are less fortunate. Its rather unseemly of you. Think of it this way, bud: the portion of your earnings that goes not into your bank account but into programs that help the less fortunate, that money.. your "donation to society" as it were.. helps make life just a little less FUBAR for the less-fortunate among us.

Two words..... NOSTALGIA CYCLE, Huntington Beach, CA The 'Super-Vee' bike kit. They are very well known throughout the industry for being rip-offs. A class action lawsuit was in the works but it never happened. 'Big Steve' Iorio was the main culprit. Nothing but a thief from Chicago and as far as I know they are still selling the pieces of shit and ripping people off for thousands of dollars. There will be blood!
