I have eaten two whole tubs of pate in less than an hour.
THAT IS HOW MUCH TOAST I CAN EAT!! You are all sore amazed, yes?

I ate 2 liters of icecream when I was about 6. I shat in my pants on the way home. Go ice cream poo!

There is in existence a photograph of me being headbutted by Wesley Willis.

I truly don't know why Wesley Willis is.

AND

You know that time you saw Darth Vader on Blue Peter, well the man in that Darth Vader suit was my kid's godfather.

THAT'S how good I am at bragging, see? I've bragged about a story that has very little to do with me at all.

AND

I once had an angry letter published in the Daily Mail. I was letter of the week with a photo and everything.

AND

I once wrote a letter to Richard Branson telling him his trains were very dirty and could he please clean the window next to seats X and X in carriage X on day X because I was planning on undertaking a very long journey. On the day of the journey I got to Paddington and the train manager accosted me at my seat, asked me my name and asked me to step off the train. I got very scared because I thought my friend and I were about to be booted off the train, and we were actually on our way to her wedding.

Anyway, we stepped off the train and we were moved to a first class carriage, (at which point we proceeded to take lots of photographs owing to the fact that we are basically very lower-deck) and we were also given a bottle of champagne to drink on our journey, courtesy of the lovely Richard, who, the train manager said, 'very much liked my letter.'

THAT'S how good I am at letter writing.

Who! Who! I truly don't know WHO Wesley Willis is. Not WHY.

As far as the "why" goes, you need not fear: he has passed away. As far as the "who" goes, he was a Chicago-area "outsider musician," a mentally challenged and extremely enthusiastic man who loved to play his keyboard (or rather, put his keyboard on simple loop settings) and sing songs about stuff he liked a lot.

Bio on Alternative Tentacles.

He was THE MAN.

Not THE MAN, you understand. The one we shouldn't work for.

Not, erm, THE other MAN. The one we have to wait for.

He was THE. MAN.

He was indeed a genius (as it seems are you at writing letters, Lula) and I have also been headbutted by him, after having taken the picture of Stoatie posted above. It hurt, and he had a callous on his forehead from where he had done it to so many people. Wesley muttered "Rock'n'roll" to me as he did it too.

The one we have to wait for.

And indeed, queue for. If only to get headbutted.

I reckon I had the stupidest drunken accident on Friday night out of everyone on Barbelith.

The results may not hurt the most, though they do HURT LIKE FUCK, but the fact that I have no idea what form the accident took has to give me at least some chance in this cruel parade of random trophies.

OK, I take that back. Boboss wins.

I was saving my "I called Robbie Williams a c*** to his face and he took it really well" story, but now it's just not useable anymore.

As a Baker I would like to register the fact that I am categorically not frolicing in Princess' name.

Also: Optimus Prime once paid me to headbutt David Essex.

Flawless Victory.

I wasn't going to say anything, but;

Not only have I appeared (under a false name) on national television saying I bought Cliff Richard's Millenium Prayer -

but also

My back has appeared on local television while I was dressed as Steed out of the Avengers

and also

I've shaken Garth Marenghi's hand.

So.

There.
 
 
Princess
21:29 / 14.03.07
Are you a really a baker? I didn't know!
Frolic for me! Please!

21:29 / 14.03.07
Well, Garth Marenghi paid me to shake Cliff Richard's hand.

It wasn't on Telly though.

Boboss: I WAS IN A DAVID ESSEX VIDEO!

No you weren't! You weren't! How do we believe this?!

Is it on Youtube? Hmmm?
 
 
Princess
21:43 / 14.03.07
But there is no more pate left. I have eaten it all.
Maybe if I ate something else as well?
 
 
Essential Dazzler
21:52 / 14.03.07
Something else...... Do you have crackers?

10 crackers in 10 minutes is a challenge worthy of Frolics.

I once expressed my displeasure at the concept of Richard Madely. Funeral For a Friend and a 1500-strong crowd all agreed with me. I am a sayer of trooth.

I've pierced my own foreskin.
Twice.

Princess, did you do that just now?
 
 
Princess
22:08 / 14.03.07
No, I did it when I was about thirteen. I did it whilst watching the (at the time overwhelmingly erotic) fashion channel. After piercing it once I realised that my foreskin had moved and un-aligned the holes. The second time I did it I realise that I didn't actually ahve a stud, so I just put the sewing needle back through and used blue-tack to form end pieces.

It lasted for a few hours before it fell out at school.

What I don't get is how I managed to spend half an hour to an hour piercing my knob (I've never been good at decisive action) without even thinking about the stud.

But no, I didn't do it just now. If I did, how many of you would dace for me?

22:11 / 14.03.07
No, that was a sober one.
Can that be in the running for "mostest stupid youthful thing"?
 
 
Olulabelle
22:32 / 14.03.07
I think it certainly can. I am absolutely in agreement that the lack of stud forethought is the most crucial votewinner.

However. Am keen now to ascertain it is all tickety boo and in order...
 
 
Princess
22:38 / 14.03.07
Ah, tis a wonderful foreskin. That bit of skin which isn't the banjo-string but is attatched to it has a minor bend in it's center, but mainly it is a princely appendage.


Better than most even.

Olulabelle: AND I once had an angry letter published in the Daily Mail. I was letter of the week with a photo and everything.

Okay, stepping back, for a second, I have to concede that this *could be* a reflection of true greatness if we can have the recounting of the details.

Stoatie and I mooted the idea of competing to get a letter in the Daily Mail on our shift but we were, essentially, scared of what we might have to sacrifice of our souls to reach the DM (tm) level. Or whether they would see through our vaguely evil lefty ways.

'Fess up Lula - text of rant, if you dare.

And I once had coffee with Billy Bragg in Brisbane after a gig. He was really nice. I'm a bit rubbish at the bragging thing.
