Never going to happen.
Ha! Me too. And I lie about it on myspace.

Oh. Well. Around there yes.
But still mega sensitive about her age.
Should have saved all that for when I'm reeeeally old. I'm planning my mid life crisis quite soon too.
Quote: Dolly Dagger @ November 19 2008, 4:08 PM GMTI don't really like seeing dead-eyed girls pretending to enjoy something in order to buy more smack. Too depressing.
I take it you don't watch LK today then?

Have a quarter-life crisis like in that awful film with Zach Braff and Rachel Bilson.

What!
Then we're not around the same age. At all....

Yeah, but no matter how young she is, she's still got to lug that awful personality around.
I'd say age has little to do with it....i think a more interesting comparison would be living style. I'd say those in relationships (be they spousal or parental) are more likely to be thoughtful and compromising to others which affects what they find funny. In addition, being accepted by another tends to pull people out of the "oh look, i'm different" club they hide in for fear of rejection.
Just my opinion....all the wackos live alone in summary
Anyway... somebody made a joke on here about being a clown and having to act your shoe size which made me chuckle.

I'm glad you can still chuckle after the tragic death of your baby, Marc. Although Baby P was an unimaginative name for it.
You see, now I would never had said that unless you knew someone pretty well, because you just don't know what someone might have experienced...
Aw, you made me sad and happy in the space of seconds, chip.
As a writer one gets used to 'killing your babies' - but the last set of notes I had was like a strike from a F15 on Great Ormond Street hospital.

Yes and no. I'm 35, I got married (again) two and a half years ago and we have a 9 month old daughter. Yes I probably am more likely to be compromising and thoughtful but no, it hasn't changed what I find funny or my evil and sometimes dark sense of humour.

You must be a barrel of fun Sooty!
