The really frightening thing is that my habit is quite demure compared to the wardrobe of the other sisters. Moonbear actually wears little more than a rosary covering strategic areas. :biggrin: She's already given heart-attacks to 10 of our priests. (We're taking applications for new ones.)


I think i'd rather not be one of the priests.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I guess they weren't wearing their "Cross Your Heart Bras" and their "No Nonsense Pantyhose." :smile: (at least not the whole time.) :-p
 
Will someone please let me know when it's time for the defrocking ? Wouldn't want to miss that...

Has anybody checked the Internet rumor sites for this story?
After reading http://femalefirst.co.uk/entertainment/3782004.htm from the same site, I have my doubts about its reliability.

Actually, as gross as it sounds, I had heard that same story on other news sources that I knew to be reliable. I think the site is just one that publishes all the bizarre news stories from around the world. Of course, is it relevant if it's a real news story or not? :smile:

That actually happened last summer.

A 34-stone American woman who had not left her sofa in six years died this week after becoming fused to the fabric.
HOW did she use the bathroom?? (it would explain the foul stench) and what is 34 stone?? :rolleyes:

It's a British site. Nobody else uses "stone" as a unit of weight anymore. I don't remember exactly how many pounds to a stone let alone how many kg to a stone, but suffice it to say, she was BIG. As for using the bathroom, um, well, yes, that contributed to the stench part. I think they sent in the emergency workers in full biohazard suits to remove her with the couch still attached.

Edit: I looked up the conversion.
1 stone = 6.35029318 kilograms
1 stone = 14 pounds

Is it true that the Americans get pounded and the Brits get stoned...?

yes! But then what do Belgians get? :confused:

Hammered.

With absinthe.

Lucky euro-folks.
 
I'm a Brit and I get kilograbbed or stoned depending on the social situation. I trained myself up as a human units converter, it's a good party trick. (Just don't ask me about slugs, chains or cubits.)


Mmmmmmm absinthe! Still got a bottle in the fridge...

Oh gee thanx, just rub it in why don't ya.

I plan on taking a quarter in spain eventually, so i'll be getting some then. Actually i'll be stockpiling it in preparation for the end of the world. How much do you figure a three year supply will cost me? :biggrin:

It's fun to feed beer to slugs! I'm outright evil to the slugs in my garden. I lure them out of the garden with beer, and then salt 'em good! (Can't just dump salt in the garden, or I'd kill the whole garden). Muwahahahaha! *sigh* Why do I have this eerie feeling that now Peta's going to be at my doorstep this spring accusing me of slug abuse?
 
Absinthe will make you crazy. I watched a documentary about it. Franz, you don't need to be drinking that stuff!

Is it worse than Oozo? Oozo makes me go completely out of my freakin' mind.
 
Mmmmmmm ouzo!

Fondest ouzo memory (and let's face it, ouzo memories are rare) was getting up at 8am, walking to school with a flask full of ouzo/water to get our GCSE results, then sitting in deckchairs outside school for the rest of the morning, then getting bollocked for appearing on TV, on school property, drinking ouzo, in the morning, at age 16. Happy days!

Gonna give up spirits at 25. Honest.
 
You have Ouzo memories? I have no Ouzo memories. People just have to tell me what I did the next morning. It's never good news.
 
Math Is Hard said:

Yeah, when I was younger I never used to get hangovers, and I never lost my memory.

My explanation is that you have to be over 18 for the beer monkey to be allowed into your bedroom to do his magic. Is there a more rational explanation?
