I just feel blobby. **NCB** - yeah, its hitting home now, but I still have to say that I feel better without him at the moment. Doesn’t stop me feeling blobby and unfanciable though. ☹ **EddyTeddyFreddy** ---

Oh, well, _blobby_ – that I can understand, especially having to deal with all that leftover Halloween candy. **Angua** coming back to bite me for telling Mum on her. But I’ll be gone then, nyah nyah nyah-nyah nyah!!! ---

How about star _foamation_ - the lovely way they suds up when enough trisodium phosphate and Coca Cola is poured on them? 🙂 The coolest thing about black holes is how hot they are. **Sampiro** ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by EddyTeddyFreddy \* > \*\*The three-cat-day, strolling in. > > Your poor friend, **F\_X** – did she live with a smoker, or work in a smoky environment, like a pub? That really stinks.\*\* No, she lived alone… I don’t think she had any friends who were smokers. As for her work, she mainly worked as a church missionary and doing things like that. So no, she didn’t work in any smoky environments _per se_. Could have been the exhaust and pollution in general evidence around this city. But no matter how she got it, she’s certainly dying from it now. Maybe I’ll start a thread on it later… > [@](#): > > Hey, F\_X, I see there’s now a parody apology thread in this forum. I checked it out, and it looks like a takeoff on our recently banned MetalMaven sock-mistress – who, it seemed to me, was trying to ride on your coattails with her apology thread. > > I hope you won’t feel it was aimed at you, too, because my gut feeling is, it isn’t. Yours was an honest, straightforward apology after careful reflection. Hers looked like a desperate attempt to avoid an axe she knew was headed for her neck. Actually, I noted that apology thread when it first burst upon my consciousness (a few days ago). Her apology thread wasn’t exactly what I’d call an honest one. I’m not saying my actions were any better than hers, but I am content with knowing I was honest with mine. I don’t think it’s aimed at me, because the parody of mine (if there was any) would have popped up a few days before I noticed this thead. Although I must admit that when I saw the thread, the first thing that popped into my head was: "Hmm… an apology thread that looks like it’s trying to garner some of the reaction mine got last week… " Prediction before I head off into the night: **BigDaiv** F\_X ---

I do indeed return. But am very smug myself. I have the Kill Bill soundtrack, and I’m currently listening to Nancy Sinatra’s “Bang Bang”. It is such a cool song. 😃 **ETF** ---
