A woman got repetitive strain injury in her thumb from typing and was awarded nearly half a million quid
A soldier on the other hand lost both legs and sustained over 30 other injuries from a landmine and was awarded £152.000

Well its current news really seeing as the court case is still yet to be brought, but whether its an hour, week or month old is a bit irrelevant really isnt it?

Bit more constructive a post lol, cheers for that as I never noticed it, am just reading through it now :)
Ahhh, just figured out why, its on the political board :)
Dunno if theres so few members on here that everyone posts on every board or not, but on most sites each board has its own cliques of members with some floaters who flit between a group of boards so the same thread posted in several places tends to get quite different posts and overtones quite regularly as well as the equally predictable complaints of the “floaters” who have seen it on another board
As nothing under the sun is unique anyway I’ll most probably not lose any sleep over this lol
14 September, 2007 at 9:32 pm #287539My dad fell from a four foot high ledge at work. He had to step back to allow an HGV through so this narrow ledge which was all he could step back onto was made even narrower, he landed awkwardly, he was off work and on medication for months. He got a few hundred quid compensation.
According to the adverts – some bloke goes to work, falls of a ladder which he knows perfectly well is the wrong size anyway and gets thousands in compensation. Or someone doesn’t look where they’re going, trips and gets thousands.
Makes perfect sense when you think about it :roll:
14 September, 2007 at 9:41 pm #287540Im in no clique. I post everywhere. Not for a minute saying you are accusing me of being in one, just clarifying a (annoyingly brought up more than others not by just you) point.

Jeez get you lol, do you assume that every general statement is specifically about or in relation to you? :wink:
What I posted was a fairly acurate general happenstance of seemingly every site on the net where interaction takes place as well as being just as obviously seen with real world interaction, its what “people” do
How you manage to read that as talking about you specifically other than you being a “people” is beyond me, but missinterpretting the logical content of posts seems to be a popular pastime on here at the moment lol

I have to admit those accidental injury claim adverts get right on my almost unnoticeable tits
My initial response to the knob with the ladder would have been “well if it was the wrong ladder why the FCUK did you climb it then you retarded numpty” and to the clumsy oafs would have been “well watch where youre going in future ya dingbat”
It seems nowadays you can make a pretty good living out of being a completely moronic, unnatttentive, idiotic, clumsy, retarded numpty it seems
Infact rather than as a society merely encouraging people to be non thinking brainless worthless wastes of oxygen we actively reward them with huge pay outs and empathetic platitudes for their shortcomings and general buffoonery, and then people wonder why the country is the cess pit its become
Well duh
And the stupidity doesnt stop there, if youre useless and ineffectual but have an almost unlooseable job with regular promotions and pay rises then chances are your a disabled gay single parent female from an ethnic minority working for a council or any company that seeks to avoid the massive legal costs of sacking you for being useless at your job like they would have with anyone else lol
What a “c*nt tree” eh?
