The Official Nonsense Thread

[Minty]

Another of life's little mysteries solved. Why is it a large bucket of water filled to the near brim the previous evening is regularly a third empty when you go out to use it the next morning? Answer - when the local cat and fox population think it has been put there to water them rather than the plants (drinking from it).

A young fox was at the bucket first thing morning when I opened the blinds, & he must have been lapping away for a good five minutes before he was finished. Shortly afterwards, the big tom from up the road was helping himself. I suppose if you're wandering around all day in a big heavy fur coat, you'll be wanting to get in some liquid before it gets too hot to move.

Today's great fashion tip. It seems a suit of armour is the in trend amongst all today's hipsters.


Bet Gok Wan's feeling pretty stupid right now for not seeing this trend hitting the streets.

Hmm, armour, you say. You know, in the '90s, or was it maybe the 80's, can't remember, one of the big designer brands produced a chain mail kit. It was a big box of little metal links and a set of patterns and you had to make your own dress by following the instructions. So maybe this trend is coming back. Not necessarily a good thing, chain mail dresses are very cold and, well, heavy!

Thank you Yahoo for alerting me to this BRILLIANT meltdown!

Arrrrgh! Get home from work to be told that a water pipe had been leaking in my kitchen. So lots of nice damp wall and floor to deal with, as well as the stupid pipe.

:nonono: Naughty plumbing. No more leaking!

[Caspin]

Pipe is fixed. Hoorah! Now just have to wait for the floor and the wall to dry out so I can re-paint. How lovely.

Oh well, the weekend is near. It will be part Sims, part Skyrim and part chicken curry. Lovely

Chicken curry, yum! What sort? May go for a CTM this weekend mesel. That's a swine about the leak. Usually with us it's caused by the washing machine's door falling off during a cycle (that cuts the machine out, but still manages to make a mess!)

[Caspin]

If the washing machine door fell off I would be absolutely beside myself with woe. I love my washing machine! No, it was just a problem with limescale destroying some fittings on the pipes at the back of the sink etc. Hard water is a real pain sometimes.

Chicken curry will be homemade by my housecarl! I think it will be Kashmiri-style, with lots of onions and yogurt. I am looking forward to it, I must say.

I couldn't help but notice TMN put a picture of a Pug in one of their posts, I love Pugs. What is wrong with me? Nothing.

[bobert26]

Pugs are quite nice. I haven't looked at TMN in ages.

I have Mmbop stuck in my head.

Give head a good shake, maybe mmbop will drop out!
