Sure, once in a while there is a peanut butter cup or English toffee, but they are gone too fast and the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits filled with hardened jelly and teeth-shattering nuts. If you are desperate enough to eat those all you have got left is an empty box filled with useless brown paper wrappers


Damn, not goint to eat chocolates again if it does that to you. :eek::eek::eek:

A lot of people I know believe in positive thinking, and so do I, I believe everything positively stinks.

You're doing it all wrong. :sneaky:

Anything that happens, happens.
Anything that, in happening, causes something else to happen, causes something else to happen.
Anything that, in happening, causes itself to happen again, happens again
It doesn't necessarily do it in chronological order, though.

I LIKE THIS THREAD.

......a nice pint. sometimes you get good head, sometimes you don't. sometimes its nice and fizzy with lots of life, others it dull and flat and looks like a large glass of piss, and you still drink it. sometimes you have to drink it in places you don't want to be, with people you don't want to be around. have to much and its bad, don't have enough and you want more, and if you have never tasted a really good one, you have wasted your time.

Steady on there, Rae, you're getting a bit enthusiastic about this idea. I wouldn't bother if I were you - it's all bollox.

Meh.

Bernard Sumner had a habit of sacking drummers by giving them a box of chocolates (ok this is just a useless piece of music business trivia but it means I can link a classic clip I found on youtube this morning :thumbup:)
