Which mess, Jack? Something wrong?

[I admit I'm confused. As far I know, you don't need to cross the channel to go from Karlsruhe to Luxembourg : )]

As a fellow redhead, I personally find blue to be far more flattering than the constant green we're advised to wear. Anything from (muted) royal to navy, although light looks terrible. There are also certain shades of mauve which look good, although obviously you have to be careful with these. I'm extremely pale, but not really freckled, which makes finding colours simpler. Steel grey is another easy one to pull off.

However much like yourself, I seem to find myself mostly in a uniform of black and white. I own some fifteen or so black day dresses - black tights, boots and jewellery, and that's four days out of seven sorted.

I judge this thread to be the worthier, for the Judge has posted in it.

Hey JCC, have you, Apathy, Gothicus and all the possessors of reason been flying the flag for magnificence in my absence or am I going to find the walls smeared with brain-excrement? It'll be easier on everyone involved if you're upfront about it now, before I go and look around.

Maybe later, I'm on and off the computer at the moment. We'll catch up soon.

Did you ever nail that girl you had your eye on?

Got this forwarded to me on my cell phone today and thought it was hilarious ... so, I'm sharing!



When you are sad - I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad.
When you are blue - I will try to dislodge whatever you are choking on.
When you smile - I will know you are plotting something that I must be involved in.
When you are scared - I will rag on you about it every chance I get.
When you are worried - I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be until you quit whining.
When you are confused - I will use small words.
When you are sick - Stay the hell away from me until you are well, I dont want what you have.
When you fall - I will point and laugh at your clumsy ass.

This is my oath ... I pledge it to the end. You may ask "Why?" Because you are my friend. Friendship is like peeing your pants, everyone can see it, but only you can feel its warmth.

Send this to 10 of your closest friends, then get depressed because you can only think of 5.


Bwah-hah-hah-hah-hah-hah-hah!

Actually, the original "That One Thread About Nothing" was called ".:Randomness:." ... and we can't post in it anymore because it's been locked down. Someday I'll be saying the same thing about this thread ... if I'm still around.

And just where the fuck have you been?

I demand first crack on MSN, JCC insulted your boyfriend last time the three of us were online at the same time, and therefore clearly has no respect for you. Remember that when we both flash up on your screen demanding immediate attention.

Lakita and the Judge all at once, oh man, this is like G.net Christmas.

Except for the fact that I'm stuck in motherfucking Truro, the southwest of England.

You know guys, as much as I appreciate the utility of healthy rivalry, I'm sure I can't be the only one who thinks you two should get it over with and fuck already.

The Judge resides in the south-east. Rejoice, for she is near.

Look, the fact of the matter is that I have to update you on the sombre happenings of my life, the ornate details of the despair that has held me in the clutches of emotional suffering without respite or repose. I have tragic but hilarious stories to tell about my mishaps and misfortunes, like a good Coens movie without the bloodshed mixed with Rant in E Minor, whereas Tony has nothing to offer but puppy dog eyes and protests against negligence. Who really likes puppies anyway?

I like puppies, but I'd much rather have JCC for a pet.

I remember now why I don't go to dodgy Soho rock clubs. Because I do not have fun at these places. My bloody wallet was nicked and I spent half the night looking after a girl who was drunk to the point of throwing up- her friends certainly weren't helping. One right tosser, looked like Russell Brand, kept trying to get her to drink more black sambuca instead of the water in front of her.

And I ended up seeing Saw 6 today, because the Gent won the coin toss between that and the Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus. I remain confused about the attraction of Saw films.

On the other hand, the housewarming went all right, despite my being a terrible host and vanishing with two guests, a riding crop and a flogger for nearly two hours.

So basically you're offering mundane anecdotes from your everyday life. What cares the Judge for such meagre offerings? Her desires are not of this worldy... world. Yeah.

Besides, only a heart of stone could resist my best puppy dog eyes, and the Judge, as well you know, is nothing if not a philanthro[ist of the highest order.
