About time for a new thread
What's the week got in store for you? Anything fun or horribly terrible?

And since that question wasn't good enough, tell me about the last thing you bought

Alt: so which day of the week were you born on? Do you fit the rhyme?
(, Mon 9 May 2011, 11:50, 93 replies, latest was 15 years ago)
I was born on a Friday.
Apparently Friday's child is loving and giving.... I suppose I fit it. To an extent.

I'm just studying like a mad thing. I have exams starting 1 month from now. :(

I didn't know there was a rhyme. I expect it's something about hay, or away tum tee tum, or something.

Turns out Darth was born on a Sunday...
Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace,
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go,
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for a living,
But the child who is born on the Sabbath Day
Is bonny and blithe and good and gay

Oh.
Well I'm fucked if I know what day of the week I was born on, it was 30 years ago and I wasn't in a position to see a calendar.

Judging by that rhyme though, it was probably a Wednesday. That appears to be the default day for a miserable, cynical cunt.

Edit: Definitely not a Saturday.
