Title: Freaky/Tricky
Post by: Phantom Hugger on July 02, 2008, 01:50:36 PM
I think the guy from Sweden who offered Benny Hill for the list said it was "tricky" to place Benny Hill above or below Nick Cave and not "Freaky" for which he was GOMPed.

Just sayin'

Me too, and I'm the one who said it.

Also, "the guy from Sweden"? What am I, a stranger?

Yes.  I felt kinda bad for Martin.  He was totally playing along.  Sometimes the bad eggs ruin it for others.  They're giving Tom itchy trigger finger.

It's a crop of an illustration of me.  ALL of my friends say that it looks nothing like me.  Ah, well.  It was fun to be a cartoon for a moment.

You are the second person to tell me this.  Sadly, I look nothing like her.  And my glasses, they be boring.

I didn't know that those were real words you guys used up there.   :'(

I'm going to start using inappropriate smileys, it actually looks kind of disorienting.   >:(

(actually I recently torrented a Swedish Pimsleur course-- was thinking of visiting there for my honeymoon, but I'll probably be too broke and will do SF or the South Dakota badlands instead)  ???
