My imaginaty girlfriend kicked me out on our first week anniversary - she bought a spaceship equipped with Deathstorm Killgasm Megamissile Lasers, Satellanavicon SV-3000 navigation systems, Squinchum & Sons' state-of-the-art shields, and on-board Mr. Frosty ice cream maker.

I got her an XXL-sized T-shirt that I stole from a homeless person (he was using it as a rudimentary tent) that had a picture of Peter Sissons' face accompanied by the slogan "Peter Sissons Knows What You Did Last Summer".


I'm studying English Literature and Media, by the way.
What aboot ye?

I only do because it's the longest relationship I've ever had. And it's been the best 10 months of my life.

The worst part of my imaginary relationship was that, a few months later, I heard she was engaged to Peter Sissons.

I prefer killing the Thread™. It's just a shame that I did so before I learnt to appreciate it fully.

"Fong chau pei" actually means "to fart" in Cantonese, so yes you'd like it.

I also get a kick out of telling people with Chinese character tattoos that the character doesn't mean what they think it means.

I've long suspected that was the case with the Chinese character tattoos. Please indulge our curiosity with some examples of what a person thought a character means versus what it really means.

Wow, your thread-killing powers must indeed be awesome to kill it over 3 months before it started.

Controversy erupted today as the makers of "Thread-Kill - The Game" admitted they forgot to program a victory condition.
