ITT we share good news and bad news for general amusement and possibly even support.

My good news:
I've got a place to live next year!
Bad:
It's next door to someone I've spent this entire year arguing with.

GO!

*It


erm, where?


There used to be a cartoon like this

in Whizzer and Chips.

It'd be like:

Good news: Harry found a fiver
Bad news: the fiver was in the hand of his father who'd just suffered a massive heart attack and was dying in front of him
Good news: Harry hated his father
Bad news: Harry's mother had been waiting for her husband to die so she could murder Harry.

etc


carry on

I like that


I would, but it's too

traumatic.


so many possibilites

Good news: Harry was pretty much suicidal

OR

Good news: Harry's mother then suffered a heart attack herself

etc


ok, lets go with the former

Bad news: Harry's mother THEN suffered a heart attack herself

Good news: Harry's mother was now dead

Bad news: Harry was living in an isolated rural farm (as opposed to one of those new urban farms, yeah? Vikram knows what I'm talking about) with no means of communicating with the outside world and he'd recently lost the ability to walk.


Good news:

Harry would be dead soon


Bad news:

Harry wouldn't be dead THAT soon


Good news:

I'm going off DiS for the rest of the afternoon
Bad news: I've just seen the price for Chemical Brothers tickets :/

good news- my working day ends in just over an hour and half.

bad news- i'm too broke and hungover to do anything fun tonight.

blimey. i've bored myself with that post.


At least you're not living with them

if they're nextdoor you could knock on their door and run away and then hide in the safety of your own house in seconds.

Good news:
Going to see Pissed Jeans later, yay!
Bad news:
Sadpunk says they're rubbish, but I don't trust him because he's an indie.


Sadpunk's an indie???

This IS bad news.


:D

I'm so going to do that at least twice a day

bad news: the person's room is right next to the door and has a massive window


wait til they're asleep

then use that snow-spray stuff to spray all of their windows white, so they think they've been snowed in, and in time they'll panic and begin to eat themselves.


:D

this is a Good Plan.


don't listen to him

he only wants to sell them some emergency planning


We don't SELL emergency planning

we required to do it under the civil contingencies act (2004)


.

good news - i had a fish finger sandwich for lunch
bad news - Dom doesn't like me cause I like Late Of The Pier :( he was even nasty about Spurs and he's usually quite nice. I nearly mentioned Robbie Earnshaw but I felt I needed to be the bigger man.


I read that as 'finger sandwich'

I wasn't sure if you were referring to a fight or something a bit ruder.


MAYO

Alistair McGowan as private detective.

good:

um...
ive finished organising an ace summer.

bad:
spanish interpreting tommorow= the biggest exam of my life.

.

good news - im finally getting a haircut.
bad news - I have a lot of work, none of which I either want or like doing.


Good news:

I have a job interview for a very good job.

Bad news: I need the loo and can't really be bothered standing up. Its stinging a bit.


You can sit down to go the loo

these days


That's a 30 second walk I'm saving myself

by virtue of the pain. I'm sitting tight.


Make sure you go

before your job interview.


That's next week.

I've pencilled in several wees before then.


Hope you've set reminders

on your outlook calendar.


No room

Its full of reminders saying things like 'Send pointless e-mail to bastard at Nobhead & Co'.

I'm fully reliant on my body clock.


good news:

-last day of school tomorrow
-i got your cd today!

bad news:
-english exam on thursday that i have still done basically no work for
-the artwork on my cd (whenever i get round to doing it) is just not going to be able to live up to the awesomeness of yours

Good news: Zonino 3.5 plans are progressing VERY WELL

Bad news: My body is so, so bruised that it's not funny.


I've got arm strain

from air hockey :(


My favourite air hockey injury

is squizz's flatmate, who basically turned her right thigh black and blue from leaning on the table so hard. COMPETITIVE WORLD.


I WILL DESTROY YOU ALL AT AIR HOCKEY

I spent my entire life keeping in shape should it ever be announced as an Olympic sport.


I'd whup you

I even broke a bit of the table off I'M THAT GOOD


I broke a window

..

Good News: I have got an ace new job which pays really well

Bad News: I kind of owe my current company £2.5k and am unable to get a loan so need to PHONE my dad tonight to borrow the money. He will be both Angry and Disappointed and will probably make me cry.


Good:

it looks as though there's going to be a job for me maintaining the fancy new computer system that replaces the one I'm working on now.

Bad:
