  • Hard News: The Sunday Capers,

    I'd just like to add that The More Pernicious Still is a GREAT name for a bar.

    are more often than not the product of something perhaps more pernicious still

    No, we have it on good authority that Mr Brown buys his whisky, rather than distilling his own.

  • Field Theory: Temepara George Has Aqua Toenails,

    On standing and stopping - sure, if you're watching one player but follow the ball and do those games fly...

    Happy as I am that netball is still on free to air tv, I do find myself screaming at the telly on occasion. You don't have time for a replay, k? By the time you replay that rebound, we've already missed a goal at the other end.

  • Up Front: The Ex Files,

    You guys are assuming that I can still tell when I'm being sarcastic.

    Not that I am presuming that Emma looks repellent naked

    Aw, thanks, that's sweet.

    (Yes, it's probably inappropriate for meto speculate on the state of their sex life, but hey, stories like that bring out the bitch in me.)

    You can rest assured that her former employees have said much, much worse.

  • Field Theory: Temepara George Has Aqua Toenails,

    It was about ten years after I stopped playing netball that I became able to enjoy it as a spectator sport - my favourite spectator sport. (Cricket's gone off to have a cry in the corner now.)

    So, how does it stack up on those claims people make about it?
    - involves so much standing still for proper ladies that players get cold or aren't proper athletes or something
    - stops all the time, given you can't run with the ball and penalties are 'per minute', so is dull to watch
    - is a non-contact sport

    I forgot that Emma has a comparative visualisation advantage - and is consequently likely to be snorting popcorn about now.

    I can't breathe...

  • Up Front: Romeo Smells of Roses,

    Are you coming on to me? Because I should warn you I am very open minded.

    Don't mind me, I'm just dragging up a couch and getting some popcorn.

    I note that Paul's career seems vastly more exciting than mine so far.

    Ditto, I'm starting to feel a bit whiny now.

  • Up Front: The Ex Files,

    My ex-boss has yet to have his come-upannce for his daily screaming (literally) fits at one or all of the staff.

    It boggles me how these people hold jobs. I mean, my ex-boss was running her own business, but she also had a real-life middle-management job where she had to deal with real people face to face, and we were seriously considering that she might be an actual sociopath. Yet once you get on to this subject, these mad bosses don't seem that uncommon.
