Well, that taught 'emSammi Evil Nice writes "I shared with two students, and it was always the same; whenever it was near to paytime, my milk *and only this* would disappear.
One of them, John, was a lovely bloke but allergic to nuts. John makes tea. Soon after, John starts swelling up.
ME: Runs, administers epi-pen. "You're going into anaphalactic shock."
HIM: "How do you know?"
ME: "I put almond oil in my milk."
What have you done to teach somebody a lesson?

TaughtWell, this is a sort of "Lesson learnt".
Kindof.
I used to drive like a loon, well, I was 22 and a guy. It's what we do. Cue many "you'll have an accident", etc statements from people.
Well, I'll show them, I thought - right up until the roundabout, oil, Armco, glass, bent metal, damage, tears, £800 insurance, etc.
Lesson learnt there.
So you would think.
6 months later, same car - tried to overtake - the other guy stopped. I didn't.
Great.
That taught me.
Last year - Older and wiser - brimming with the intelligence of age. Driving too fast, corner, field, swearing, bad.
Have I learnt the lesson of physics, speed and the pain that can be involved with driving like an arse?
No.
Why, oh why will I not learn???
Turns out my Passat doesn't handle that well either.....
