» Thrown away: The stuff you loved and lost.

Married my Mom??
When I was a teenager, on a small number of occasions, my washing would be left in my room minus certain garments. After months of hoping they would turn up I finally ask dear old Mom if she has seen it, has it gone into anybody else's pile of laundry? No answer, it is a mystery. Years later she finally admits that the garments in question, usually some scruffy t-shirt I kept because it was really very comfortable, had been thrown away by her. I guess she made an executive decision that it was too scruffy for me to be allowed to keep wearing it. Maybe not the biggest travesty of justice but it did bother me loosing things because Mom didn't like them.

Fast forward a few years, I don't live at home any more, but with my new wife. I don't rely on Mom to do the laundry anymore, in fact, as a modern-ish man I even indulge in doing some of it myself sometimes. But I have started to notice very occasionally, t-shirts going missing. And when I confront wifey, she denies throwing them away. Until a couple of months ago when I see in a shop the exact same t-shirt as I used to have. I was so happy I bought it so I could have another. Wifey cannot hold it in any longer and confesses to having thrown it away because it was.....

Too scruffy. There it is, I am sick, I've married my mother.

Diego Maradona
It isn't just because he cheated us in '86. It is because he still wont admit that he cheated. Also, I hate to admit it but he was bloody brilliant and he wasted his talent by becoming a fat old coke fiend.

Cheating waste of talent. I don't like him.
