So many idiot posters on Charlton life.

Don’t be so harsh on yourself.

A postage stamp size of cones, complete with temporary traffic lights, blocking off a lane and nobody working on Summer Hill Chislehurst close to the station.

Chaos in both directions.

Amazon deciding that having a valid student card isn't enough to get student prime and that limiting the number of years you can have student prime is a good way not to piss off people.

you're not a student anymore are you?

The stalk should be at the bottom anyway

I hold the banana with both hands, twist slightly (almost like your giving someone a Chinese Burn) which breaks the skin

then just break into it and peel away

Doing a postgraduate certificate with work provided by a uni so technically yes.

Well thank you, @stackitsteve. I never knew that! 
I'm all ready to join my monkey brethren...

Dangerous precedent to follow what monkeys do, they throw their poo and perform lewd acts at the zoo.

People who, when a question is asked of the whole firm, feel they need to "reply all" their answer, when it clearly isn't necessary. Like anyone else gives a stuff what you think. Always the same sort of pompous twerp, or old codger who has barely mastered email

also the dicks that think they're funny by hitting reply all saying shit like "thanks for sharing John"

Luckily not encountered that... That would certainly set my urine at a vapour pressure higher than that of the surrounding area

People used to send out a firm wide email at my old place using the term "Sorry for the blanket email but.." usually followed by how that disorganised Wally had misplaced his water bottle or lost their notebook or some other such drivel. 

I once sent a passive aggressive retort "Sorry for the blanket email..." and literally just pasted a load of pictures of blankets and nothing else. Gave me an enormous sense of well being at the time.

I got one today because some bell end has lost his charger but it was accusing someone of nicking it rather than asking if anyone had seen it

Did you manage to put it back without him noticing?
