what on earth?

[Favu]

I've just had the conversation from hell... bearing in mind I know this guy, he wen't to sixth form with me and that we have a history of this sort of conversation, mainly him asking for help, me helping him, and then him asking the same question, me answering it sarcastically, and then him getting abusive. Although this time I swore first.

I dunno if you find it funny or not, but I sure did.

I am sorry to hear about his loss and his loved ones being ill, that's not cool for anyone.

But after he repeated what I had written back to me, I kinda lost the will to live....

[WonderBread]

lol, I saw that alot when I was working at Geek Squad. Also one of the reasons why I quit.

[skool h8r]

XD XD XD XD! Sorry, but that made me laugh! Especially the bit about giving him a sticker. The part about someone in hospital is a bit upsetting (for him at least), but the rest brightened up my afternoon.

[Daniel ~]

This is why I refuse all forms of IM!

I don't like funny! ":O}

[keithwalton]

That is quite priceless and at least made me smirk a little after my miserable weekend!

[Rondog]

I understand his pain about the loved one thing, however!

You answered it: If it works it works, if not, get another one. :\

Bought a grin to my face.

Hey it's a common slop bucket...how unattractive is that! Dude you can't drag down our collective average because we don't have one.
