Some of us are so rock'n' roll round here, we do typos as well as drugs. And, no I won't offer your Dad a typo either.

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

Well now that I've finally gotten off the floor from laughing...

Excuse me for thinking it might have been a sexual metaphor rather than a typo

This sounds like a job for you, Nick.

Surely you're not suggesting a suicide m*****n?

Edit: fookin' censorship Heaven forbid it would rather I put girls in place of mish

Never understood the reason for censoring the Mish. Nobody cared when I mentioned I'd bought one of their singles last weekend, and even when I posted a large image of it on "Currently Listening...", no response.

Somebody wasn't paying attention to my "Garden of Delight and Dance on Glass are crap"* posts then. I assure you that notice was taken

Lie?

I wondered the same when I got invited to a "baby shower"

Or I can send Johnny in my place, and he can say he's having a no hair day.

No alcohol!!!??? Beejeezus.

Okay then, if genocide is a bit much, I'd suggest enjoying Friday, then taking a LSD tab shortly before the Sunday shindig starts. Everything will be nice and normal (ie. dull as f**k) while you're showering the bride, then hey presto...playtime, 'as you live and breathe' - I love that saying.

You can keep the cookie, a nice curry will suffice.

Such a younger version of Miss Haversham (or maybe Estelle) in public forum but such a sweetie in Yahoo reality. Yes I appreciate that 'yahoo' and 'reality' don't quite equate but you get my drift.

Sh!t! I've just been nice to you. Sorry.

Affirmation (sp?). History counts. Even in open forum.

Oh no. I've just had a horrible thought. What if there are children at the shower? Oh dear. In that case, I won't need Pot Noodle to induce vomiting.

This simply won't do.

Children?

*shudder*

31 of them, all day

Today's Challenge: The bachelorette party is on the Friday, and the shower is on the Sunday. Your job is to think of a plausible excuse that will allow me to go to the Friday party while preventing me from attending the Sunday shower. Whoever comes up with the best excuse gets a cookie.



P.s. Deaths of family and/or friends won't work, unless you can produce documentation.

You could always go dressed as a "member of the opposite sex"

To elaborate on the Upset Stomach suggestion, you could make sure you eat something at the Bachelorette party that "gives you the s**t for 3 days". Whether it actually does or not doesn't matter, as long as it's believable. Then, after unnecessarily indepth descriptions to fellow shower-goers over the weekend, with any luck you'll be told you really don't sound well enough to go and wouldn't it be beter to give it a miss? If they're such dull people, they'll probably be relieved at your absence. And if that doesn't work, just bring up the subject again at the bridal shower before suddenly leaving in a hurry with your buttocks clenched together

Hmm, after reading that back, I don't think I'd want to know me if I were somebody else!

I'd rather stab someone

Hmm, A McHeartland meet doesn't seem as appealing as it once did.As for the Bridal shower, tell them you think you've won the lottery and your having your ticket checked.
