This is a question My Biggest Disappointment

Often the things we look forward to the most turn out to be a huge let down. As Freddy Woo puts it, "High heels in bed? No fun at all. Porn has a lot to answer for."

Well, Freddy, you are supposed to get someone else to wear them.

What's disappointed you lot?

« Go Back

My biggest disappointment today is...
Coming onto qotw and finding all my B3ta friends have disappeared.

Hello!
i'm here too! I have had an ace day, got my results today (2.1 - over the moooooooooooon) and am now drinking with my lovely boyf who is technically watching the football.
How is everyone this evening?

Yay, congratulations Lucy :)
I'm a bit overwhelmed with all the reception stuff I learnt today. Wont have to use it all again for god know's how long as both of our receptionists called in sick today and apparently that's a very rare occurance.

Other than that I'm good and my cat scratch is healing nicely :)

It's very strange that it's so quiet on the boards on a Thursday night.

Still, at least we can get a word in edgeways.

aaw fanks everyone
I am now trying to get drunk but i've eaten so much food today and beer makes me bloated i actually think I might puff up like a balloon and float away in a minute.
Though I could probably fit some more food in first.
hmmm.

We can only assume that some new cyber-goat-transmitted virus has evolved
and decimated our more talkative b3tans.

Edit: BGB - all I have is beer, I'm afraid. I might make a pizza with anchovies and mackerel on later though.

I know Ancrenne's doing work stuff, but not sure where everyone else is.

Great, I've got some twat called Sam buzzing my door entry bell and will not say who he's here to see, just "can you open the door please" Fucker

I only deal with small fluffies, not the bigger specimens. But probably yeah

I have arrived
on the pretence of doing paperwork, so I do not get disturbed. This chatting in a thread has become somewhat of a tradition now, much better than going on the /talk board (they scare me).
Am on Murphys, the poor mans Guiness, but may finish off that bottle of Bourbon that keeps mocking me.

Hi Belmsford.
Yup talk is scary. I don't even understand what their saying half the time.

Dammit, I TOLD them that sharing goats was dangerous.
Crap! I've just remembered a great answer for the last QOTW - when I worked in Tesco, a strange old tramp came to my counter to inform me that AIDS crossed to humans when "a tribesman made love to a she-monkey", and then advise that I not have sex with monkeys if I valued my health.

Edit - before someone else says it, yes I meant HIV.

I find /talk waaaaay too confusing to follow and I don't know anyone there. Granted I'd get to know them (and I'm sure they're all lovely in case anyone from there is reading this), just I prefer it here with fluffeh QOTWrs

A good collection of hats is
an excellent thing to have. I currently have *counts* 4. 5 if I can find one that's eluded my line of sight since I moved in though so I fear it may be lost for good.

Who are you talking to Spimf?

I guess technically I have 4,
but three are successivvely better versions of the same hat, so the less-good two are retired.

If you could call them that. One is a baseball cap which I wear on holiday to keep my thin-on-top bits from frying in the sun, and the other is a woolly beanie thing to keep those same semi-bald bits warm in winter.
