I imagine a world where there is a board that is only for links.

That is amazingly cute, though.

You fucking shirter.

( Devil_In_Tights the *real* DiT!, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 12:50, Reply)

This is not the time for that kind of tone
It's a fucking giraffe. A baby one.
Think of your wife, man.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 12:50, Reply)

My wife is not a giraffe.

( Devil_In_Tights the *real* DiT!, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 12:58, Reply)

Damn straight
She's apparently a midget.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 12:59, Reply)

When did I say I was a midget?
I like midget gems.

Your dearest husband called you one last night
As he told me how much he loved that I was taller.

Also, never really been that keen on midget gems.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:17, Reply)

Oh I see
I go out for a few hours and he kicks off on the boards! Hmmmmm...
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:28, Reply)

Yeah, that's pretty much what he said
Oooooooo, I found an awesome sweet shop the other day, with loads of jars of sweets and everything! I plan to save up my pocket money and go spend like £20 on sugary treats. It's gonna be awesome.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:31, Reply)

Ooooh that’s exciting.
Was it a Mr Simms? A Quarter Of is still my favourite website, I think its DiTs turn to place an order though so I’m waiting on him at the moment for sweetie joy! :)
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:40, Reply)

Nah, it's some independent place
Although AQuarterOf may be cheaper. My bank account may take a severe beating this afternoon :S
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:45, Reply)

Hehe yeah its worth having a look.
I tend to find that the sweets are more expensive in the shops because they think people won’t bother to compare the prices online – HA! They clearly underestimate how much I love sweets and how much research time I put into these sorts of things, the darn fools!

It's useful to get the opinion of an 'expert' in the area
*Google time*
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:49, Reply)

*bows*
Why thank you sir!
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:55, Reply)

Ok, so I just had a brief look
And found about £20 worth of stuff I want. Damn.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:59, Reply)

Hahaha
Yeah good luck with that! :D

At least the delivery cost doesn't increase as the weight increases... some sweetie websites do that and its mean! :(
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Fri 26 Mar 2010, 14:01, Reply)

Again, the voice of experience
I might end up popping into the shop too since I'm gonna be past it on Sunday.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 14:04, Reply)

She eats giraffes, though
innit?

Damn you, though, Giraffes are my favourite animals.

( Devil_In_Tights the *real* DiT!, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 12:57, Reply)

is that why your wife has a photo of her fellating a toy giraffe?

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 12:58, Reply)

Stop stalking my wife, online!

(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:14, Reply)

They're amazingly cute, even as adults.
They have even more innocent-looking faces than whitetail deer do, which is pretty hard to beat.

It is a bit sticky

It looks a bit rubbish
The big one looks far more awesome.

giraffes
the only animal in the world born with horns

EXCUSE ME:

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:16, Reply)

Also
More obscure, but definitely born with horns...

GNAH'
Once again, I was wondering where the fuck everyone was on the other thread.
( G/PP 💩💩💩💩💩&#128, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:18, Reply)

I'm also reassured, for once, by the lack of any comments saying
"Ooh yes, and I wonder how long it is before these dirty forrin animals start sneaking across the channel to Grate Brittun to claim asylum and sponge off our benefit system?"

Give me a bloody chance will you, I'm eating my lunch -
then I'll get right on it.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:45, Reply)

They never did publish my comment the other day
Don't know whether I was too obviously stirring the shit or just that signing it as "Mr S Crow" was too suspicious an alias.
(LongJohnBaldry, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:53, Reply)

The bounders!

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 26 Mar 2010, 13:58, Reply)

Utter cads
I thought, despite being a bit sanctimonious and shit-stirry, I made a valid point, but as I think al said at the time, that sort of thing is about as much use as bashing your head against a wall.

They're still cads and bounders. Of the FIRST WATER.
