A sign I saw on an episode of the North Yorkshire Steam Railway on TV last night:-
On the door of the Engine Maintenance Manager's office is a sign that reads "Due to the backlog of work at this time, the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off"
I have my shoulder to the wheel,
my nose to the grindstone,
I've put my best foot forward,
I've put my back into it,
I'm gritting my teeth,

Now I find I can't do any work in this position!

In 2006 we were in Western Australia and saw a brochure about the Yarloop Steam Workshop.  It happened to contain a very pointed safety sign which would not comply with modern regulations.  Unfortunately this was all lost in the big fires that wiped out yarloop a couple of years ago
 
Having lived through a pandemic I now understand all the painting of fat people on couches!

From a 1929 magazine.

Does anyone know my nearest supply and fitting dealer?

Feeling insulted or annoyed by something on the internet is a bit like seeing dog poo on the footpath and deliberately stepping in it.

Neither do you any good and both are easily avoided.

At least the dog poo is useful - it can be used as fertilizer!

Little Johnnie came home from school one day and said to his Father "you have to go to school so see the Headmaster"
Why said Dad, what happened?
"The Maths teacher asked me What is 6 times 7?, I told him 42. He said what is 7 times 6? and I said What's the f...ng difference?. He took me to the Headmaster who said to ask you to come and see him."

The next day Johnnie asked "Did you go to see the headmaster?" Dad said no, not yet, why what happened today?
Johnnie said "The physical education teacher told me to lift my left arm, then he told me to lift my right arm. Next he told me to lift my left leg, then lift my right leg. I said do you expect me to stand on my f...ing penis? He took me to the headmaster. The headmaster said to tell you to come and see him."

The third day, Johnnie said "Dad you don't have to go to see the headmaster now, I had to go to the headmaster's office.  The Maths teacher, the physical education teacher and the arts teacher were there."

Dad said What the f..k was the arts teacher there for? Little Johnnie replied "That is what I said and they expelled me."

Seen on the internet but I cannot remember what it was in relation to:-

What do you want me to do? drop my pants and make my butt cheeks clap?
I have my shoulder to the wheel,
my nose to the grindstone,
I've put my best foot forward,
I've put my back into it,
I'm gritting my teeth,
