Also, you never know Applebite
In a recent job interview I was asked for examples of competitive environments and working under pressure and all that bollocks, I mentioned both Ballroom dancing and the night I DJ at, having done the former for 6 years and the latter for 10 and stuck at both til I was making a success of them seemed to work in my favour. The HR lady who called me said they bloody loved me. And I didn't even have to suck them off

She probably thought you'd come in handy for handbag shopping.

Oh, you're nasty
But I smiled with your post. Am I nasty too?

That's not nasty!
That may be the mildest "You're gay" comment I've ever been subjected to

About time you showed up.

Howdo Mr Vest. My girlfriend is very impressed with you
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 24 Jun 2010, 13:18, Reply)

She's easily impressed. Well, duh.
Have fun here today - I'm hours behind on my work, so I'm off.

I was going to say something that might make DF bad
I can't. Even when I know he'll know it's a joke.

I don't think I deserve being here. I'll go back to work.

You can say whatever you like about me George
Everyone else does. At least with you I know you have a very sweet disposition and won't mean anything bad by it
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 24 Jun 2010, 13:35, Reply)

It's nasty that she thinks you might like going shopping
and for handbags!! ffs! What's the internet for?

Ta, I try to improve every day
I think they're talking about you again down there.
(Aberracion Life's getting very complicated, but a lot of fun., Thu 24 Jun 2010, 13:25, Reply)

They do spend a lot of time talking about me
I wonder why that is
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 24 Jun 2010, 13:34, Reply)

I think they're secretly in love with you
They keep calling you gay in the hope that you turn homosexual, so they'd finally have an opportunity to do you.

Funnily enough that is exactly the conclusion I'd leapt to
It's like we're the same person, posting on two seperate accounts so I could pretend someone on here likes me, or something
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 24 Jun 2010, 13:38, Reply)

Hahaha!
Somehow, for them, the first thought when they read your name, is bum. That doesn't say anything good about them, eh?

Well yes, Geoff, er... sorry... that's me, not you... I mean... nothing...
(Aberracion Life's getting very complicated, but a lot of fun., Thu 24 Jun 2010, 13:42, Reply)

I'm glad I suggested we're the same person
Cos it's only a matter of time before Vipros accuses me of flirting with you, and that's probably slightly more original
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 24 Jun 2010, 13:45, Reply)

But that would be incongruent of Vipros
If you're gay, how would you be flirting with me? Unless he knows about George. Have you told him?
(Aberracion Life's getting very complicated, but a lot of fun., Thu 24 Jun 2010, 14:06, Reply)

I don't think Vipros, or anyone else on B3ta, who let a little incongruity stand in the way of a two-pronged wind-up
Excellent use of English vocab btw :-)

I seem to have had a number of good mates
who I suspect to be closet gays....

I think you just described me as a good mate
Are you hitting on me?
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 24 Jun 2010, 14:55, Reply)

I was just making conversation
you seem to leap to conclusions too swiftly and I'm afraid your feelings might get hurt.

I just can't love you back. I'm not that way inclined.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 24 Jun 2010, 14:56, Reply)

Yeah, we'll see
I bet you love a bit of tent bumdering
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 24 Jun 2010, 14:58, Reply)

once again
my mrs is going to be there. as we learnt yesterday from Al, she won't mind if she wakes to find me being ridden by a girl, but will mind if she wakes up to my arse being plundered by a man.

also, I don't love a bit of tent bumdering
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 24 Jun 2010, 15:00, Reply)

I no longer know
if I should meet either of you. The bumder potential is massive, and you might be happier in each other's company

I'll step carefully around
your shaking tent, and meet her instead

he's a good laugh, if you can excuse his really shit puns

hold on a second
why would I accuse you of flirting with her?
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 24 Jun 2010, 14:08, Reply)

You accused me of flirting with Amberl yesterday
it's not a huge assumptive leap. You are the Heat magazine of B3ta, after all
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 24 Jun 2010, 14:11, Reply)

that's because you accused me of it first
and you are clearly far more guilty!

Ah, but the difference is, I was kidding
You're just making malicious gossip to sell copies of your filthy publication

alright, admittedly I am trying to shift copies
but that doesn't make what I said any less accurate!

You have no evidence of that. I'll see you in court
