» My Worst Date
Argh, the memories!! =(
I remember in my first year of college, I got my first proper boyfriend. On the start of the second week I was brought to meet his parents.
Parents: "You must be Dan's friend?"
Me: "Boyfriend, actually"
*Awkward silence*
Dan: "I guess now would be the time to tell you I'm gay?"
I left after half an hour of sitting alone in the kitchen whilst they argued in the living-room. Sorry Dan! =(

Poor Dan...

Parents: "You must be Dan's friend?"
Me: "No, boyfriend."
*Awkward silence*
Dan: "I guess now would be the time to tell you I'm gay?"
I left after about half an hour of sitting alone in the kitchen whilst they argued in the living-room.
I bumped into him for the first time in 3 years the other week. He didn't return my wave.

This question reminds me of the time I was doing some temp work in the Welsh Assembly between college and uni.
To try to stop as many depression-related suicides as possible, we're each forced to decorate our departments at Christmas, and at the end of it all, our efforts are judged. In the week approching the big day, we all got treated to this open e-mail exchange:
Dear colleagues
I refer to my earlier e-mail, which relates to Ann's judging of and prize-giving for HSC's Christmas Decorations at Cathays Park. As I'm sure you've guessed, saying that she would be coming around tomorrow was of course a classic 'soft' deadline tactic. For information, the real date of the adjudication is now Monday 19 December.
Regards

Alun,
That will put us in an awkward position. As you are aware, our display involves a lot of fresh greenery which is unlikely to survive until Monday in the heat of this office. This team has put a lot of effort and personal time into competing and I, as the one who bullied them into this, will not be available to try and save the foliage as I will be in hospital that day. I am personally disappointed at this arrangement adjustment.
Regards
Bev
It should also be noted that both of these messages were send with 'high' importance. Says a lot about the governments priorities, if you ask me...

OK...Last three
Three prostitutes were sitting at the bar. The first one said "I can get THREE whole fingers in me!" The second one said "I can get a whole FIST in me!" The third one simply laughed as she slid down the barstool! =S
Two women decided on a sucicide pact, and jumped of a building. Number one landed on the road and it took two days to clean the mess. Number two landed on the lamppost, and it took to weeks to get the smile off her face!
A woman died and went to heavan, where she was given a set of wings. "And my halo?" she demanded of St Peter. "Sorry luv, but you don't get one of those until you've been here 10 years!" The woman scanned the angels ahead of her, and suddenly she noticed something. Pointing she said "So how come Princess Dianna has one then?" and St Pete whisperd "Thats the steering wheel!"
