Not for a few more weeks, but yeah it's gone quick hasn't it...

Oh you're right, for some reason I worked out June 15th as the halfway point, clearly I am not fully awake yet.

Hey, man. I can do serious if need be. I felt, given the context of the thread, a serious post was called for.

This doesn't change what we've got together. Nothing will ever change that.

Going to Slovenia for a week in September. And have just started booking flights for a year long round the world trip starting in october! :D

Time goes quicker as you get older because each year is a smaller fraction of your total life... It's mathematics, man.

Done some travelling round europe but didn't do interail. Just make sure the cost the ticket doesn't work out more than booking separate trains - depends how many places you wanna do and where they are.

My paypal has stopped working with Beatport, and both companies have the worst customer support I've ever experienced (even Sky+!). Would anyone like to help me firebomb their headquarters?

thanks dude. me n my mate are gonna plan it out properly all places we wanna go etc and how long for. but one thing i would rather do is just camp out in random fields and vineyards getting chased out by angry farmers then just book into hostels when in need of a shower etc save money for having more fun and think it would make the trip more exciting.

i'll have a look at the site you linked. thanks again

I'm slim and every girl i've ever been with has joked about my rediculously deep belly button. Must've been an elephant's trunk of an umbilical cord.

Yeah that would definitely save you money and sounds like a laugh. One big benefit of hostels though is getting to meet lots of like minded people in a similar situation and sharing advice/stories/booze/stds ;)

SomethingMoreGlorious · 2009-06-17, 14:57:20

When i was younger (and up until i was about 14) i thought the a boy's penis was connected to the umbilical chord at birth and his penis length was determined by the exact point the doctor snipped the chord.

And even though i now know this isn't true, a part of me still feels it makes more sense than the truth.

notagenre · 2009-06-17, 15:01:15

I got mine pierced when I was 14 and to this day I don't think I've ever shown it off in public, I think they're tacky as hell but I'd probably rather leave it in than have the hole scar mark.

EDIT: I'm talking about bellybuttons, by the way, NOT penises, in case the above post confuses anything!

So, for the avoidance of doubt, your penis is currently un-pierced?

Digital Glasses · 2009-06-17, 15:12:54

Didn't we just decide Notagenre is a female of the species? Or is this the joke?

Yeah, I was just yanking her chain though I don't think we decided her sex, that was her parents' chromosomes that did that.

Haha for the avoidance of doubt my penis is non-existant. I am of the fairer sex.

Two pages and the names have started already!

It's lucky that names will never hurt me, now if you had sticks and stones then that'd be a different story altogether. I'd have to beat you to death with your own shoe.

Digital Glasses · 2009-06-17, 15:25:48

Well it's a good job I don't wear shoes. I lost my feet in a freak attack by an unidentified feminist.
