Common sense evades this country
I really never have encountered such a lack of common sense in my life. Today I went to the library as I had to get a couple of core textbooks. A few days ago, I took back some books back late, and my borrowing rights have been suspended for a week (don't get me started). 
I went to go and photocopy some parts of the books until my card was reactivated, but I couldn't find a working photocopier (what a ******* liberty). I then went to ask at the desk to the ask the librarian (an Indian woman) if I could take out the books for a couple of hours so I could find a photocopier on campus. She looked at me like she couldn't understand what I was saying, and then swiftly said 'No'.
What a pile of absolute crap. So now I have to wait until Monday when my card is reactivated, all because that typical woman didn't have a scrap of common sense in allowing me to find another photocopier.
Has anything so retarded ever happened to you in this shambles of a country?

Bloody asylum seekers....
The fact that she was Indian had nothing to do with it, in fact I would say that the Indians I know in business have the most common sense - it's generally why Indian businesses are so successful.
Regardless of ethnicity or race, there are a hell of a lot of people in this country with little to common sense, or a sense of irony.

Here's some common sense for you: Take your books back on time, dumbass.

A librarian refusing to let someone take books out of the library without borrowing them...what is the world coming to...
Is this a college/uni library? If so, that's a really stupid punishment that you can't borrow a book for a week if you return one late. Couldn't they implement a fine or something? You're a student, you need access to books!
I'd complain to whoever is in charge of the library. But then I do enjoy complaining

Err, if they're core textbooks for your course, why not just buy them?
The point is that you're going to need them for most of your course - that's why they've been designated core by the module conveners. You will save yourself a lot of hassle by just buying them.

Depends on the course. In 4 years of uni I bought 2 books, which I barely used, even though there were several "essential" textbooks for each module I did. I never borrowed any from the library.
