My girlfriend and her father collect Commer vans. 

TRAGEDY! ALAS!!

On ebay there were the complete works of Samuel Johnson, in good nick for ten pounds. I was the only bidder and as I got closer and closer no one else did. I reckoned I would definitely win, put in my bid and....I had forgotten to sign in.

There will never, ever be a deal like that again, those books were worth at least £500 and I let them slip out my grasp when I could have had them for £10.

I need a drink.

That's beyond tragic! I refuse to beat you up over the Oops moment, seems like you're doing that on your own rather well. Have two drinks, sleep well and get over it!

Well, there's no point in fretting over a bunch of books. It happened. Oh well, we all screw up sometimes.

My poor pica, I am a notorious forgot-to-clicket, so I use a service to set up bid parameters in advance that prevent my snoozing from making me lose. One good one is auction sniper; they only charge the 25 cents if you win. I used it a lot when I was first buying women's clothing and didn't have much budget.

I'm waiting for the first call from the first doctor (/psychologist) I need to see to be able to go to gender examinations / whatever they are called in English. Should be only minutes now...

// Edit. ...Aand I'll see a doctor at the end of January. January! I know things take their time and all, but why haven't we got any urgent appointment times for this Meh.

Thanks
Maybe my head will be even clearer and more determined when I finally get to the doctor

I only know how to tie my shoes bunny-ear style. And I double knot 'cos they always come loose otherwise. 

Either you love bacon, or you're wrong...

God, I love threads like this.

There is a chicken in your sandwich, asking for a hot tomato soup. Please tell it that you'll be back on Friday at 10:00 PM when Fox News is discussing about Piccolo.

Glad to know there are others. I'm thinking of calling myself a bacovegetarian

The world's largest burger is $400: "Absolutely Ridiculous Burger" at Mallie's Sports Bar in small-town Michigan. The 134-pound burger (post-cooking weight), topped with cheese, bacon, and all the fixings, is housed in a giant 50-pound bun and measures two feet in diameter.

Funny you both brought this up because each payday we buy breakfast out at a local place and order a side of four pieces of their delicious bacon to be shared between us. It is absolutely the best bacon we've ever tasted and they refuse to divulge where they get it. I joke about needing to get a trigliceride boost and offer bigger than average tips, but still no dice!
