    Rattle, Rattle, Bang, Crash!

    What is it with people that hammer away at a keyboard as if they are trying to bludgeon it to death?
    For God's sake, the bloody spacebar has not done anything to upset anyone so there is no need to hit it as if it's just insulted your mother!

    There is no escape other than to shift to another desk, maybe tomorrow when you enter the building, but you'll have to control your frustration until the end of today.


    And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

      There is no escape.
      Trapped in a small room, quiet as the grave.
      Now, how can I sabotage his keyboard?

        Maybe you could insert a rubber mat under it to dampen the noise. Otherwise you may have to resort to flying over in an F11 and bombing him.

                Quite right. Start hammering your F11 key

                  If he's going to do it anyway, you may as well go and insult his mother.

                    Actually, I think I prefer the swivelling around suddenly in my chair and shouting "Shut the duck up! "
