Major invention, the futility belt.
What Jean-Paul Satre used to keep his pants up.
Or as seen on Fatman, the super hero who has let himself go.
I wore my bright red “The Federal Election is Hungover; WTF Australia” t-shirt to twilight lawn bowls last night and raised a few old grey eyebrows. 😀
I want some FD-merchandised lawn bowls please. 🙂
We’re having Health Week at work and we each got a show-bag of agency-logo’ed merchandise (including a stress-ball) this morning. Ooops! Mine fell into the round filing cabinet.
well FD 4 out of your 6 six fit me to a tee – pun intended (so to quote meatloaf – 2 out of 3 ain’t bad) – having the stress ball (in this case with my own company logo on it – which is even more depressing than having a med companies insignia on it – as they red balls got us stuff all business and cost a mint) in my car in an attempt to free myself of brisbane’s traffic nightmare each day, isn’t really work – freedom, ha…maybe if i did some ironing and got a futility belt then things will improve…i am now off to google “futility belts”
keep up the good work
Dear FD. I tried the futility belt……and…..Let’s be polite about this.
It was worse than futile. It was friggin useless.
So I have moved on and now wear the braces of defeat.
But at least my trousers stay up. 😎 🙂
You’re going very Leunig on us Firstdog.
