I thought Peter Jones died ages ago.

Tall businessman Peter Jones

Yeh Peter Jones the Dragon Den man, not Peter Jones the voice of the book.

Stupid customers who walk around the shop whistling at us like we're dogs. >_<

See I always got into trouble for that working in places in the past because I would explain to the customer I was not a dog and didn't answer to whistling or clicking.

I was a cheeky pixie!

I just can't get the hang of the word "scene" in that context.

And Robyn, your colleague should have got a pencil...

Where do they employ pixies!? :O!

At 'elf food shops...

BOOM BOOM!!!!

I saw a girl on the train today who looked like a pixie.

What, like elfin? Or she was wearing a green outfit while sitting on the only available toadstool on the train?

Crazy,
I saw a dude just the other day who walked into a gas station at 10 am wearing a shirt that read "I <3 Cock".
What surprised me most was the dude looked like a tough sort of labor guy. I figure it was a lost bet or something.

I saw an angry drunk with a can of Stella wearing a
"Cover me in chocolate and throw me to the lesbians Tshirt."

I assume he'd killed a lesbian.

I think he may have been the same guy I saw wanking off another tramps Labrador.

Elfin? Eh?

She was wearing a green-ish top actually, I think.

I elf·in (lfn)
adj.
1.
a. Relating to or suggestive of an elf.
b. Made, done, or produced by an elf.
2. Small and sprightly or mischievous.
3. Having a magical quality or charm; fairylike: moved across the dimly lit stage with elfin grace.

I suppose I was referring to 2 or 3, but apologies for not making it clearer. Or maybe we should just settle on the culprit as the over-nuanced English language. For instance, I'd describe my ex-girlfriend as 'elfin', but I'd mean 'pretty, but a complete and utter mental bitch.'
