    Ideas and possibilities for 2008

    ................... And what list might that be HHNF? The one for next year. My personal deathlist. Wolkers (see previous post) was on it too.

    Room Lovely, Look You.

    Nothing wrong with a good cock every once in a while... *tongue in cheek*

    Room Lovely, Look You.

    Cock on a stick is a sugary cock on a stick... apparently it's an old Goose Fair tradition like mushy peas with mint sauce. I haven't touched my cock on a stick yet because it has the look of something that will make your teeth hurt just by looking at it. Might go back to Goose Fair tonight. First the Registry office today.... giving notice ;-)

    Room Lovely, Look You.

    My fiance says: guns, knives and women's bottoms. If anyone wants to argue with that, remember one of them is guns. I'm sort of partial to the cross-bow myself and not exactly into women's bottoms either. EDIT: Having just been to Goose Fair: cock on a stick (and just because it's nice: Spotted Dick).

    Room 101

    People in the streets wanting to get your money for some sort of dodgy charity. People in the streets wanting your opinion on something you don't care about. People trying to sell you stuff from the Dead Sea, if it worked, that sea would NOT be dead (and your hands smell like a bleeding candy shop for hours after). People who leave their empty coca cola tins right next to you while there's a dustbin three steps away. People with their trousers so far down you can see their pants or knickers or even worse 'invisible' thongs. People in general I suppose.... *Goes into misanthropic mode*

    Room 101

    I'm so happy I'm not the only one who doesn't get it when it comes to these two. And then there's Dr. Who as well...

    Room 101

    Oh ok. I usually just post in Dutch on Dutch boards anyway. Me too. Well I didn't cry... but I do read them and I enjoy them (otherwise I wouldn't waste my time reading them would I?). With the original covers (except one, there was just the 'adult' cover left). And I don't do public transport as a general rule. I drive. Not while reading I must add. Ok going to read something 'grown up' now.

    A Joke

    I shall apologise ahead of time.... It's a long one: 50 Things I am not allowed to do at Hogwarts I will not poke Hufflepuffs with spoons, nor will I insist that their House colours indicate that they are "covered in bees". No matter how good a fake Australian accent I can do, I will not imitate Steve Irwin during Care of Magical Creatures class. Growing marijuana or hallucinogenic mushrooms is not "an extra credit project for Herbology". "I've heard every possible joke about Oliver Wood's name" is not a challenge. I am not allowed to attempt to breed a liger. I will not go to class skyclad. The Giant Squid is not an appropriate date to the Yule Ball. I will not use Umbridge's quill to write "I told you I was hardcore". I will stop referring to showering as "giving Moaning Myrtle an eyeful". Polishing my wand in the common room is acceptable. "Polishing my wand" in the common room is not. If a classmate falls asleep, I will not take advantage of that fact and draw a Dark Mark on their arm. House elves are not acceptable replacements for Bludgers. Starting a betting pool on the fate of this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher is tasteless and tacky, not a clever money-making concept. I will not start every Potions class by asking Professor Snape if today's project is suitable for use as a sexual lubricant. Adding the name "Bueller" to Professor Binns' roster is not funny. "Springtime for Voldemort" is not an acceptable suggestion for the class play. Seamus Finnegan is not "after me Lucky Charms". I will not refer to the Weasley twins as "bookends". I will not refer to the Patil twins as "bookends". The Slytherin prefect is named Draco Malfoy, not "Rocky Horror. "It is exceptionally tasteless to tell Professor Lupin that "Once you go Black, you never go back. "I will not call Lucius Malfoy "Jareth". I will not bring a Magic Eight Ball to Divination class. I am not to refer to the Potions classroom as "Kitchen Stadium". I will not tell Ron and Hermione to "Get a room" whenever they start to fight. The Forbidden Forest is forbidden for a reason. I am not a tribble Animagus. I am allowed to have a toad, rat, cat, or owl. I am not allowed to have a reticulated python, snow leopard, Tasmanian devil, or piranha. I do not weigh the same as a duck. Remus Lupin does not want a flea collar. Sirius Black is not #24601. I will not lick Trevor. I will stop asking the Arithmancy teacher what the square root of -1 is. I am not being repressed. Calling Lucius Malfoy "Luscious Mouthful" is just plain gross. I will not change the password to the prefects' bath to "Makes getting clean almost as much fun as getting dirty". There is no such thing as an Invisibility Thong. I am not a Pinball Wizard. Asking "How do you keep a Gryffindor in suspense?" and walking away is only funny the first time. I will not offer to pose nude for Colin Creevey. I will not offer to pose nude for Dean Thomas. It is a bad idea to tell Professor Snape he takes himself too seriously. It is a bad idea to tell Professor McGonagall she takes herself too seriously. Sir Cadogan is not one of the knights who say "NI". I will not offer to prepare tandoori owl. I will stop asking when we will learn to make "Love Potion Number Nine". I will not ask Dumbledore to show me the pointy hat trick. I will not greet Professor McGonagall with "What's new, pussycat?" There is not now, nor has there ever been, a fifth House at Hogwarts, and I am not a member of that house, nor am I its founder. I will not take out a life insurance policy on Harry Potter.

    Ah found Room 101. Got something for it: RSD (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy) which has just reared its ugly head again

    Erm... where's room 101? I need to toss something in there asap.
  18. Emily the Strange

    Room Lovely, Look You.

    I saw that too What would I put into Room Lovely? Coca cola and crisps obviously... What? Stop looking at me like that. Okay for my real entries for Room Lovely: The Chinese take away up the road. Telly programs on forensics (including CSI and Dexter). Modern telecommunications like mobile telephones and tinterweb (uhm... the internet).
  19. Thanks BS. I go for the goth librarian look. It suits me ;-)

    Brigitte Bardot seems to have some health issues, nothing along the lines of terminal illnesses... I'm still sticking to my nomination of Mademoiselle Bardot for 2008.

    Irate Visitors Rage Here, If You Must.

    Someone needs to switch to Firefox.... Anyway, you need to have something to do at work or while your better half is at work don't you? Death list time! Just in case you're wondering where the 'fresh blood' has gone. I'm on holiday, visiting my fiance in Britain.

    Browse Hows - How Do You Browse?

    I had something similar happen about three years ago... I have not touched IE since. I even haven an IE tab in my FF so I can do certain things without having to use the horrible IE. (This includes webdesign and internet banking) I am never ever going back to IE.

    That's lovely, thanks. However, I'm going to have to decline as my circle on Wednesday serves cakes and ale..... Perhaps some other time?

    True! He really dislikes them. I've finally been able to tear myself away from the train wreck that is Jack Chick's website. I feel so much better now.
