So I guess that was one of the concessions Idol had to make when she dumped him and settled.
Happy birthday, mate.

If it makes you feel any better, know that that nefarious nasal wart which siphoned my spirit for twelve, count 'em, kids, sadistic solar cycles of humiliation and paranoia, having been frosted into submission by liquid nitrogen, providing huge temporary humanity to one who had abandoned the notion altogether, has resurfaced anew, proud and resplendent, now taking residency upon my eyebrow. Right, if you must know.
That was a long sentence.
Never take as gospel the information given to you by someone who lectures you on linguistics while at the same time spelling platinum wrong. :no:Quote:

Couldn't resist, my friend. Thank you for the birthday wishes and musical enjoyment. :)
I didn't want you to walk into that one, Idol. Those who reside just to the east of the Atlantic passionately defend the spelling and pronunciation of aluminium. To their credit, most metals do have the -ium suffix. On the other hand, platinum has the -um suffix on both sides of the Atlantic.Quote:

Not even ironic.
Pity I missed it first time around, chapeau.
After enduring a cunt-numbing 12 years last time out, surely you've already made arrangements for the sand-blasting to occur forthwith.Quote:

That make such perfect sense and yet at the same time is so utterly stupid that I feel I must now use it as the excuse for every grammatical error I've ever made on this site.Quote:
