I'm cleaning my carpets tonight (not a euphemism)
What are you up to this fine Wednesday?
What's your favourite euphemism?
Alt. What will be the media's next scare tactic? I've seen an influx of natural disasters and pollution. Paedos and terrorists have taken a back seat.
Altalt. Speaking of taking a back seat, what are them gays like eh? They win their gay marriage bollocks and now they are moaning about Sainsburys covering up Attitude and gay Times. Never happy.
What are you not happy about?
Alright.
