deary me
we were out in the pub one evening, and a mate who i hadn't seen for a while, and was absolutely besotted with, turns up. we get chatting, catching up on stuff. she's looking really good, sporting a healthy tan, so i ask her where'd she been on holiday. she admits its just a fake tan, to which i reply "oh right, is that why its all patchy then?"

and another time, i was out on a sports club piis-up. it was the christmas dinner so everyone was dressed up, myself wearing a sharp suit and tie. in some bar afterwards, one of the members, who i didn't really know, asks "what's that mean then?" pointing to the chinese characters on my tie. (it was a few years ago, and i was young...) my response, pointing to each character in turn:
"you"
"are"
"a"
"cunt"
he was non too impressed and walked off.

he now owns a computer shop opposite my flat, and i see him pretty much every day...

i'm such a cnut
