Are you still here, chalice? Didn't mean to confuse you.
Alright, dad, I'm off to Bedingfordshire anon.
Please don't beat mum any more.
Well, we'll see. You know how she gets when she drinks...
Good luck scorin' yer smack!
I had some smack a couple of months ago. True story.
It was nice to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there.
:lol: I remember. You got it as a birthday present. :D
speaking of; how is that novel about your reprobate brother coming along? :unsure:
Don't get me started about that stuttering freak.Quote:

He's like The Fugitive or something. Well, The Fugitive played by Porky fucking Pig, like.
So no news since then?
He phoned me yesterday cos he can't work a computer and wanted me to do his O2 Surprises for him.
He got 20 free minutes to use today and tomorrow, innit. If he lives that long.
I can't make up my mind who's stupider. Him or his plank of a girlfriend.
It's definitely not his conversational skills she's after.
Oh is this the barely legal gf? What is she like?
Behaves like a four year old.
But then, my kids were far brighter than her when they were four.
She won't be winning University Challenge any time soon.
Maybe you should sign her up for it, just for a laugh? The weakest link is looking for contestants as well.
She wouldn't even make it to the fucking studio.
She'd get dazzled by her reflection in some shop window.
Edit: And prolly try to eat it.
She sounds like quite the catch.
In other news; the boy has learned how to say 'Oh no' in an overly dramatic fashion and is now creating situations so he can say it. Ie, 'accidentally' dropping his cup, 'accidentally' falling over on the newly mopped, wet floor, 'accidentally' sticking his arms in the bathtub and thus getting his sleeves all wet.
Genious, I tell you, genious.
Noice.
Can he say 'fuck' yet?
I could at that age.
No, we've not concentrated on that yet :rolleyes:
Besides, he's a bit slower with his language development than other kids on account of being raised bilingual. The poor thing is having to make his brain work twice as hard.
I think it's fan-fucking-tastic that he's bilingual. Lucky kid.
I could only say 'fuck' in one language. Still, it's been good to me, I suppose.

Enjoyed that. Just right as we try to get the kids settled back to bed after their first feeding of the morning.Quote:

I'm not complaining or anything, it's fun watching it, all round. It's fun watching you metaphorically run circles around them while they think they're winning...something.
I don't remember many people I harshed ever trying that with me :dunno:
Dunno, mate. Seems my reputation precedes me, or something.Quote:

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.
The hand can't hit what the eye can't see.
The only reason I posted that Cerys Matthews thing is cos it's a Kirsty MacColl tune wot I've been plumbing the internets depths for for fucking years. Stumbled over it on Spotify to my liver-bursting delight.
Could be they're trying to look cool in front of their wee buddies. Arguing with a lounge harshist might be worth some mong-points, or something.
Also, I liked that tune, anyhow.
Fuknose why.
Yeah, but do yous not think she lost all her credibility after going on 'I'm celebrity super mong, get me out of here'? :unsure:
Yes. Yes I do.Quote:

Still, she did perform it superbly. And it even has that wee homunculus fucker Jools Holland on it, innit.
Well, that's alright then, innit?
BTW, I have never heard anyone actually say the word 'homunculus' - How does one pronounce it? Does it stay true to it's Latin origin and has the stress on the 'cu', or has it adapted and has the stress on the 'mun'?
Hmmm?
Answer me! Answer me now!
I hactually have no idea about what you're talking about there.Quote:

On another note, I'm cewking, now. Filled peppers.
I have high hopes for it, it's starting to look pretty good.
I've heard people say it, and they did stress the 'cu'. But they were japanese, so they could just be mangling the word.Quote:

During this time the country's popular media speaks about not much else :(
As for homunculus - I had a look at 3 different online dictonaries and they all stress the 'mun'.
I can't remember the times I have been laughed at because I pronounced a word true to its Latin origin, only to realise that, of course, it had been bastardised to make it sound more English :cry:
Have I been exposed that quickly? Yes, it's true. I was arguing for the sake of gaining CPP (chalice pwnage points) which are exchangeable at the gift store for little cool key chains and a sharpener.Quote:

Back in the day, the bittards used to come scavenging for MPP (manker pwnage points).
If you managed to get one you won $1 000 000 000. No one ever managed.
Someone lost arguments to a guy whose name rhymes with wanker?
Wasn't worth it for 50p.
Dunno what the current exchange rate is. Might be up to 60 now.
Yeah, it was Canadian dollars you see.
It was usually that kind of inside-of-the-box-and-never-getting-out thinking that did it.Quote:

Yes. Food for thought.Quote:
