Sorry dude. I wouldn't know where to start.

You should have watched that program series that was on a while back. Told you the origins of different words. Each week they had a theme like ........ Ships etc. Was pretty facinating tbh.

Damn, sounds good.

I'm frightened. Seriously. [a] It's not a Penguin book. I've told you you've got to pay for my Powerpuff Girls fetish somehow, and keeping my employer in business does that. [b] Er, UT. Like. 30 mins ago? We're worried, young wol. Worried I tell thee.
