I have met some crazies, including this week.


This week alone I heard:

-"If somebody leaves me, I ruin their lives."
-"I wouldn't mind getting raped. I would actually offer them money."
-"My front lobe decides whether I answer a phone call or not."
-"It is hurtfull when somebody uses my drug habit against me."

Anybody else?

You have some strange friends FD. The weirdest thing today would be the lastest post on the riots.

The weirdest thing that has been said to me lately was that he couldn't talk to me (via text) as his wife would catch him with his pants down.

Not friends BB.

May be not as weird as the pants thing but I've just heard some kid say on telly that he was rioting because VAT had gone up and he wanted to get some of his tax back.

That's a bit weird!

He didn't mention how much VAT had gone up to tho To be honest I can't even imagine that he knew what VAT was.

Wouldn't you have to be employed to pay taxes???

VAT is Value Added Tax, Bora. It is added to goods at point of sale so therefore if you buy a 50in wide screen TV, VAT is calculated at 20% of the purchase price.
So much cheaper if you can just go and 'nick' one though!

There are two sure things in life - death and taxes. You don't have to be a productive member of society to pay taxes.
