(1) But if you are an oilfield fitter in some godforsaken Siberian driller camp and your wages aren't being paid, owning a few hundred shares in the refinery is a bit of an abstract concept.(2) Lina, with her long black coat and trousers, stands like a villain in a spaghetti western in front of an unusually squalid shooting stall at some godforsaken Moscow amusement arcade.(3) Next morning we strolled, unwashed, along the desolate shoreline of this godforsaken place called Na'ama Bay.(4) Pitcairn looks to be such a godforsaken and boring place - there isn't even a sandy beach, let alone a palm tree - it's hardly surprising they had to make their own fun.(5) As if this freezing bunker on this godforsaken heath, the 18-hour days, the crawling about in the mud and route marches weren't bad enough, he's brought his own weights with him.(6) He has that deeply-lined face, he's from one of the godforsaken states where they have u2018northersu2019.(7) He's agreed to u2018sort something outu2019 so I'll be seeing him in a couple of weeks when he can get up to Manchester from whichever godforsaken part of the country he normally hides.(8) We may be in a godforsaken backwater, and this may be a tent, but it is my operations center, and I will have silence.(9) By the time I got home again I could afford to spend 55 minutes reinstalling my godforsaken operating system which was more or less all it took, I think.(10) You see, not only do these five godforsaken months of permanent darkness and sub-arctic temperatures mess with my mental stability, they also make me fat.(11) Though I am probably not much loved there, I shall curb my ire and allow the godforsaken alkali desert of California to become a state.(12) While travelling through that godforsaken country in the hope of turning the fruit of my loins into something vaguely resembling a man, I was unable to shake an insatiable hunger for biltong.(13) But stuck in their godforsaken corner of the world, none of them know what the hell is going on and the first shot after the credits shows a line of men on a craggy ridge holding up TV antennas to no avail.(14) This guy looks nice enough, and he'll probably make this godforsaken trip bearable.(15) I was like u2018Ok - not like I wanna be out in this godforsaken heat today anyway!u2019(16) Nothing goes right for me anymore since I started reviewing this godforsaken Gobi desert of a record album, dammit.
