Hello!
10695. greystoke - 8/7/2004 11:03:41 PM My wife doesn't mind joking about farts, but if she actually smells one she acts like she's going to puke. Of course hers smell like roses.
Just thought I would share. 10696. tmesis - 8/8/2004 1:34:15 AM Try farting on her head in bed sometime. Neat. 10697. Magoseph - 8/8/2004 2:17:44 AM Hey you guys, cut out the vulgarity in this thread, please! 10698. greystoke - 8/8/2004 2:30:09 AM tmesis
Your suggestion is shocking to a gentleman like me.
I usually pull the sheets up over her face while she nods off and then cut loose. 10699. arkymalarky - 8/8/2004 2:33:09 AM You two obviously don't have partners who understand the fine art of getting even. Bob and I were talking with friends just the other day about our personal policy of MAD. It's served us well for over 22 years. 10700. greystoke - 8/8/2004 2:44:17 AM arky,
Do you mean you never play practical jokes on Bob because he will "one up" you?
Or do you mean that you do it in such a way that you won't get caught? 10701. arkymalarky - 8/8/2004 2:51:47 AM I mean that we both know that if one dares, retaliation will be swift and complete.
We developed this policy years ago with "wet willies."
For those who don't know what those are, you lick your finger and stick it in someone's ear. The important question to answer in MAD policy is whether it's better for two people to be miserable or no one to be miserable. Since the Wet Willie Days we've successfully maintained the latter, and we both know that if one gets tempted to cross that line the response will be rapid and severe. 10702. arkymalarky - 8/8/2004 2:52:36 AM What's the fun of playing a practical joke that the victim doesn't figure out? 10703. greystoke - 8/8/2004 3:04:00 AM arky,
Well there is the amusement of seeing some poor, innocent child taking the fall for a cleverly planned "disaster". In the best ones, the child actually thinks he was responsible.
Of course the instigator must confess all sooner or later.
Maybe when the kid reaches adulthood Or gets out of therapy. Whichever comes first. 10704. tmesis - 8/8/2004 3:38:41 AM Does sakonige have a history of clinging intractably to arguments she knows to be stupid?
I'm just wondering if she actually believes in what she's saying. 10705. judithathome - 8/8/2004 4:02:13 AM People are what they are. 10706. judithathome - 8/8/2004 4:15:34 AM Is Nottingham southeast of Liverpool? 10707. Magoseph - 8/8/2004 8:24:22 AM Oh, I didn't see that, Juds, sorry. 10708. Magoseph - 8/8/2004 11:06:40 PM Hello, everyone. 10709. alistairConnor - 8/8/2004 11:22:09 PM I would have put it northeast, but what do I know. I've never been as far north as Manchester.
Which is about as far north as we'll get this time. Not actually to Manchester, but to the Welsh border. 10710. alistairConnor - 8/8/2004 11:23:38 PM There is another little Swede - a girl this time.
Lucky for the Scandos that they have enthusiastic immigrants to boost their birth rate for them.
Who's going to pay for your long, happy, expensive retirement Pelle? New Swedes. 10711. PelleNilsson - 8/8/2004 11:47:34 PM If Nottingham is north-east of Liverpool it is in Northern Ireland.
So what is your itinerary, alistair?. To Chester? Lovely city. 10712. alistairConnor - 8/9/2004 12:06:43 AM Unless it's moved recently, Northern Ireland is to the northwest of Liverpool.
No, actually, we're not going as far north as Chester, or Manchester. We'll be going to Oswestry, which is a bit west of Birmingham, we'll be staying with friends for a couple of days. We'll be taking the ferry from Cherbourg to Poole, and going back Plymouth to Roscoff, just for variety. I've reserved three days in a camping ground at Crystal Palace, in the suburbs of London, twenty minutes by train from the middle of town.
We'll get to see at least one open-air Shakespeare, plus whatever's on at the Globe. Visit some castles. Fun stuff for the kids. Language immersion, get some CDs and videos. 10713. Ms. No - 8/9/2004 12:08:11 AM "Nottingham is close to the centre of England at the heart of the East Midlands. It is approximately 120 miles from London and 50 miles north of Birmingham."
