Drunk as a skunk and having a one man mosh to Botch and trying to ignore the vast stockpile of booze that got left in the house from my housmate's birthday party last night. I can see this endeavour failing miserably.

Well, we managed to house about 25 people last night; in the living room, the kitchen, the hall, the landing and in the garage, and one heroically drunk guy in the garden in a pool of his own vomit so I think I can accommodate some relatively sensible B3tans.

And I prefer to call it the House of a Thousand Corpses.

My brother also decided to shag my friend over the bath and she dropped her bottle of beer and left it, leaving me to clean it when I decided to have a shower.

( fuck shit up the best you never had, Sun 27 Jul 2008, 23:33, Reply)

@ becky
YA RLY. The full story is in one of my ancient QOTW answers, but I forget which one. I added an address I'd been told was an old friend of mine from school's (I got it from my mate Bob and I trust him), only to find the address I added should have ended in @hotmail.co.uk and not hotmail.com, as I added. I ended up asking this person if they were, in fact, Tori, and getting Dutch in response. When I said I didn't speak Dutch, they swapped to English and proceeded to tell me they were Mark's sister who liked to watch her brother making sexy tiem with his girlfriend from the wardrobe, and that she wanted to have sex with me.

After a while, I got to talk to "Mark", and he claimed that as we had met by accident we were 'fated to be together' and he 'loved his little English girl' - to the point of dumping his thirteen year old girlfriend to be with me. I freaked, naturally, and blocked him after this, and what felt like the 90th attempt to get me to get a cam, and to video myself ladyfwapping, and then he wanted me to shove a computer mouse up my mimsy, all in the space of a week, and I only had to pop up for a second to set him off. Fortunately, I had the presence of mind to give him a fake name and location.

After I blocked that address, other Dutch addresses would start adding me "why did you block mark? he cannot see you online.", to the point where anyone who has a Dutch screen name who tries to add me on MSN gets instantly blocked, no questions asked. And I thought it had all ended about 18 months ago, bar the odd invite from SexyBabes.nl and FunkyHunks.nl, which go to my Junk folder and as far as I can gather are Dutch dating/porn sites.

So if someone called Mark Stronks ever messages you, you don't know me.
( Maladicta, Sun 27 Jul 2008, 23:40, Reply)

@ BK
I could tell tales about that; after not being able to get rid of him for an hour, he was saying "we should meet soon" - yeah, because I'm going to fly to Holland to meet some morbidly obese nutcase who wants to violate me with a mouse and probably other technology and calls me a 'slut' every other line of chat.

He was 30 and still lived with his parents.
