On a serious note though....if you can pull off some free overseas postage at work then post me some of those pens. They sound neat.....Please....

hah, crucial yes
central
fundamental
the foundation of...
inseparable (sorta)
the basis of...
kernel
nucleus, nuclear
elemental (no, no witchcraft)
i don't know, can you provide a sentence? really...

i'm just waking up btw. seem to have missed most of the point of this thread.

Well where the fuck were you YESTERDAY, when it mattered?

Useless bastard.

Ooh, I've got these Parker pens, they've got sleek silver metal barrels, and they're retractable, and they're gel rollers, and they write smooth as silk. It nearly makes note-taking orgasmic.

If I send you these pens, you will have to lease me your soul.

hah hah sorry, i was resting at home from the long drive across 4 or 5 red states. no internet at home. but for fee, i can be hired as a consultant. $1000 buys you 10 five-minute calls per month :D

For that price, you'd better be a fuckin teleprophet.

Or a really good dirty talker.

exactly ;)

Please - why settle for the phone when you can get one of these?



Take Your Cybersex To The Next Level With An Internet Rabbit Vibrator

Online sex has taken a new leap forward with the recent invention of the Internet Enabled Rabbit Vibrator. Now you can link directly anywhere in the world and hook up with a play partner for instant online sex. This dual-action vibrator is made of a sensual, see-thru purple jelly. There are rotating pleasure beads in the shaft of the dildo and a vibrating, rabbit clit vibe at the base. Just by itself, this rabbit vibrator is a high-quality and sexually gratifying sex toy.

I just wanted an excuse to post that again.

You can do both simultaneously, you know.

i wish that had existed when i had a girlfriend that lived half across the globe. unix "talk" was good enough back in the day :D

oh and it wasn't an "internet girlfriend". it was a real situation. we just had to make up for the time between visits. with that kind of experience, you understand why the charges are so high. :D

You can't save face now.

hah hah i know.

but if you've ever racked up a $1000-a-month long-distance bill you'll understand why the internet came so "handy"

as the saying goes, distance makes the boner grow longer, or something like that :D

cmon, nobody's going to make a joke at my expense? hurry up already! :D

(on second thought-- maybe this is just TOO embarrassing to be funny... :eek:)

Well, it would be rude to rub it in to be honest. I'm more concerned about getting my free pens. How long would this lease of the soul be exaclty?

You only have one soul, and I thought Satan got dibs on that some time ago.

Nah...he kept bugging me for but I gave him a photocopy of my soul. He seemed to buy it.

Well, now you're untrustworthy. Deal's off.

Aw bollocks.

For some reason, that was terribly endearing. You can have your pen.

Yesssss! Result. I have had a frustrating day with pens today. All mine are shit.

who here chews pens?

i like the gel type, if you leave them on the paper the ink spreads out very satisfyingly. although this does render the pen inlkess in a few days.

i do need to get drunk.

I prefer doodling abstract things in pencil, because you can smudge the image in a variety of fascinating ways.

Em, I might have to agree.

I haven't done any doodling for a while. I even got a colleague to make me a sketchbook by stapling together some scrap paper but I haven't really used it that much. I need SOME DECENT PENS FIRST....

You doodle all the time, from what I hear on the street.

You actually trust me with your address?

You would know, wouldn't you?

Not intoxicated, you say?

Why does "mr cricket" sound lascivious?
