- Human beings (me, that is) can survive intolerable stress;

- Human beings (me also) can survive on little or no sleep;

- The people I work for are a bunch of two-faced, lying egotists who would stab you in the back at the slightest whiff of a possibility of advancing their own agenda and I hate them all;

- To make excellent muffins you must not overmix the dough;

- No exercise makes you fat;

- Eating 2 muffins every time you have a cup of coffee makes you fat;

- All that really matters is to love and be loved, all other "stuff" in life is just meaningless shite.

- It's easier to get into debt than out of it...

I've discovered that the lyrics to Doh a Deer aren't "Tee - A drink with German bread" As I had previously thought...

While satay sauce is impossible to buy in the super market, its not really that hard to make

Mixing a load of sauces together can be quite nice if you smother it in cream and onions

Driving with gears is great fun

Pantene smooth and sleek conditioner is great

being a girly girl can be cool too

While there is little more important than love and hapiness, there are some people who should not be informed of this fact in its entireity

You can handle pretty much anything that life throws at you because you have no choice. You just keep going.

Friends are extremely important in times of crisis.

Custard is made from eggs.

Merangues from M&S have 55 calories and no fat.

Christmas inevitably turns out to be quite a lonely time.

its very hard to know your friends

evaporated milk can be a good substitute for cream

typing while you nails are drying can be a messy sticky business

people that let you wait outside the RDS for 5 hours by yourself aren't really your friends.

you can think you know someone for ages, and then suddenly see a side of them you never knew, and never be able to think of them the same again

- I've learned that some people can be extremely nasty and petty on web forums and try to make others feel guilty even though they know what happened.

- Giving some people exactly what they wanted is never enough

- "May cause Electric Shock" is not a challenge

- Feckthat Rules!

You can't please everyone

Workers at McDonald's are friendlier than the workers at Wendy's

George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were terrorists (well, my US history teacher seems to think so anyway...) :confused:

What the world thinks of America

Dishwashing is a very boring occupation

Most American food is not food, but plastic

To take advantage of opportunities because it might be the last time they ever come around

How fun message boards are

Don't care what people think of you, because you won't be happy if you always are what they want you to be

and...

Quizmo Sponge Monkeys are the beginning of the end of the world

People are very cynical.

It's quite difficult to make things go your way.

Evil plans are very hard to pull off and are almost always foiled!

You can never get away with murder when Horatio Caine and his team are on the case!

People will constantly surprise you.

"Surprise" is not spelt "suprise".

"Australia" is not spelt "Austrailia"

This was a funny thread!

I've since learnt that tortilla has two different meanings. In spanish, it means omelette while in english, it's a wrap thingy.

You never pronounce a double L in spanish.

i thought the same about australia and surprise and darkstar and tree had some valid points too.

through perserverance even the snail reaches the ark and all that.

mcarthys on cornmarket st is the only place in cork that sell black steel toe caterpillar boots in a size nine retailing at €134.95

i love cheese, expensive cheese.

Ahhh...spelling for dummies! Hmmmm...most of the posts I'm replying to today seem to be your's osiris. If you stopped posting such silly things maybe I wouldn't. Or maybe not, that sentence didn't make much sense...at least I know what I'm talking bout!
