I’ve heard this one!
Heard of. Heard of.
I’ve heard this one!
Heard of. Heard of.
Unless you had a 17" tv
Rose wine or one of those raspberry beers don’t count?
‘you fight like a barmaid!’
(throws road name sign)
Man. I’m gonna use this one for sure!
Some idiot politician. It reads like an ego piece.
I have a soft spot for pixel stuff. Stuff like the original monkey island, or heart star or cat tales never get old.
My dad put a cup of water in my car during tofu deliveries to a hill resort. He said it was to ensure the tofu didn’t get damaged in transit. But he was secretly developing my downhill racing technique. Apparently if I didn’t spill the water, it meant that my cornering technique was ‘smooth’.

There are exceptions. I’m in a semi developed SEA nation and I’ve heard of simple drivers who have German luxury cars at home because they’ve used the information they overheard from their bosses in the back to invest in stocks.

There’s a difference between inherited wealth and self made wealth. Also generational vs neuvo riche.
Sounds like it was a thing with the parents. What was your friend like?
Heh. He probably used it a total of a week too.
I can only assume that was difficult to process as a kid.
For some reason I stared at the image for 30 seconds then looked at a blank wall.
You’re clearly not burdened by an abundance of education.
