What freaks you out? on Wall of Mouths

Yes. Especially if it wasn’t really a chicken or a cushion, it was an enormous albino cow covered in silverfish, being ridden by a papery thin 100 year old cowboy…

Right, I’m off. I might have a go at making Sunday Dinner :)

If it’s any consolation it makes me want to throw up too. Anything connected with swallowing mucus makes me sick - even writing it down! I have to get out of here…

Actually come to think of it, you’re right it may have said pie test, which would explain the pies around here…

I think my rubbish hearing can freak me out. I do suffer occasional instances of looking up upon hearing engines/aircraft and seeing a bird, then associating the two while knowing that it can’t be. I’ve seen and heard some loud bastard pigeons y’know.

Hmmmm, thats more of an irritation really though.

Irritation? I would suggest it is a sign of impending mental collapse :(

Tell me, do these birds ever speak to you? Little twittering voices in your head?

Its not so much twittering as the roar of turbines, but if you speak turbine they might be making perfect sense.

*Wonders if Mrs H can speak turbine*

I speak fluently in most forms of religious headgear. Would you like me to translate?

edit: I am sufficiently bored of waiting, and in any event i can hear them from here. They are saying “Andy - there’s a wasp in your ear you f**king idiot!!!!”

Sorry, had some stuff to attend to - beer pouring mainly.

But that wasp was in the deaf ear, I’m never gonna understand him of hes using the wrong ear. Bloody wasp!

It was the turbines I was translating. Wasps can’t speak :)

Which has reminded me of another thing that freaks me out - ‘Jimmy Spinners’ or ‘Daddy Longlegs’ depending, I guess, on where you are from. Horrible creatures, and deadly poisonous to boot! Apparently the only reason they don’t bite us is because they can’t open their mouths wide enough. *shudders*

Yeah, they don’t even make noise the spindly gits. They are abit odd those things, found a leg from one the other day, just hanging from the ceiling. No idea how it got there.

Sorry on the wasp/bird translation front, totally lost the thread there.

LMAO :D

I never thought it would happen but you have made me cry with laughter :D

I suppose it got it’s foot stuck and then the rest of it just fell off?

More to the point how did you ‘find it hanging from the ceiling’ and more worryingly how (and why) did you manage to identify it?

I think the spindle quality of the legs makes them quite easy to identify (despite the chance that it could be from a stick man), plus it was right by a window and that the way they bounce/fall/bundle their way in isn’t it?

Glad to have enhanced your evening :)

I did read in one of Boo’s nature books today that they have such rubbish legs because it means they’ll just snap off if they’re caught in the mouth of a bird or some such. Gross.

And then subsequently ruined it by making my skin crawl and making me itch all over. That bouncy fally ‘could go anywhere but will probably end up in your hair or down your back or something equally hideous’ way that they move that is the worst thing about them.

Anyway I must away - I have 700 billion things to do. Enjoy your beer, and I’m sorry about your dodgy eyes and weird ears.

*waves* Good luck, 700 billion sounds like alot of things to do. I’m gonna book a hotel and then do one myself.

Hooch, good to see you’re OK, I thought the threads reporting a kettle accident were too far fetched to be true - as if you’d have problems handling a kettle! Pah!

Sorry Squall old boy - I was on here while the Mrs found such a hotel as I could fritter my monies on, now I must drink and watch shite TV after doing a mere 550 miles already this weekend.

Ta all!

Thought; Hmmmmmm fritters :)

To be honest, me neither. But they eat, among other things, paper. I imagine it would take them quite a while to munch their way through a shelf’s worth, though! ;)
