Someone has sent me an irritating
Dingbat style spreadsheet-quiz.
I nearly finished it and then got stuck.
Any ideas for this one?:

You are out of touch.

Thank you.

Niet problemski, comrade.
Post the others, peas? I want a go.

I've sent you it in an email,
as I can't be bothered to type them out.

Sooooooookay.

So you'll get in trouble if I reply to your work email,
but not if you post on b3ta?

Odd workplace.

Where is the "are" in it though
if that makes sense, otherwise I agree.

Actually it should be
You is out of touch, aieee.

You are out of time.

You're out of touuch

Mind the piss!

*slips*
*lands heavily on back*
*gets concussion*

I actually did this when I was younger, although not with piss. I slipped over on a large quantity of spilt orange juice in the supermarket and managed to fall with such force that I got a concussion.

Soft lad!
I assume that you are now living fat off the compensation payout?

"Dingbat style"?
I'm afraid I don't understand.

However, it would seem that he or she wants to touch you down below.

Haha
I thought that.

Roy Walker would have a fit.

It's close. But it's not right.

Catchfreeze, then.
Same difference.

Any ideas on the final one?
It's a square with the word 'JUST' written inside the bottom right hand corner.
The corners are rounded ones, and the writting is rounded too, but I don't know if this is significant or not.

just round the corner

(, Wed 6 Jul 2005, 14:22, archived)
Probably this.
Is JUST written at an angle so it goes around the corner?
(, Wed 6 Jul 2005, 14:23, archived)
YES!
It was 'just around the corner' to be precise.
Thank you!

Something about a rounded bottom
and 'just right' I expect.

Mmmmmmm, bottoms :)

Dingbats were puzzles in newspapers
a bit like Catchphrase puzzles, but usually with words not pictures, and occasionally actually requiring some puzzling out.
There was a Trivial Pursuit-like board game at one point too.

Oh, right.
Sounds awful.
