Deaf and arm
I love my legs, they're well long. Although I couldn't dance without either so I'd be a bit stuck I suppose.

I'd rather be deaf because I'm not a huge music buff so I think I'd miss my hearing less than my sight.

I can't figure it out since half the columns match up and then the rest don't at all so the only way I think I can fix it is to go through each bill that we've done this year and find the figures that match up, which will take ages. But then it is my fault I think.

I just read your reply to QOTW
when I lived in the exact same position, flat opposite mine, I had a new kitchen put in and the guys left some wood and a couple of binbags outside my flat whilst I was at work. The flat opposite put yellow and black caution tape all over my door and posted a note through asking that it all be removed immediately. At the end they wrote "the caution tape was a joke LOL!". Stupid cunts.
(, Thu 9 Sep 2010, 14:24, Reply)
I hate that.
"Lolz I am just joking (actually I'm not joking I'm deadly serious) no really it's all a bit of fun (no I'm really not joking I'm seething with rage)".

I already admitted to the double standard of course, but the smiley faces in my note were meant to amplify the rage rather than passive-aggressively trying to pretend that there weren't no problem.

And hey, at least your cunts actually used words. I hope you went and shouted all over them for that little display?
(, Thu 9 Sep 2010, 14:36, Reply)
I put the caution tape over their door instead
and when they knocked on mine I explained that the joiners had put the rubbish in the hall, not me, and that because I actually worked for a living I wasn't in until half past five. When he tried to say again that the caution tape was a joke I said "Oh don't worry, I got it, I LOLLED REALLY HARD" and then shut the door in his face.

NEEDLESS TO SAY AMOROUS BADGER, I HAD THE LAST LAUGH.
