Looking back on forty+ years of existence I have learned… eh… learnt… (dammit)… realized a couple of things. (this wisdom will now be dispensed in point form forthwith)

  1. Don’t chop up chilies and then go down on your wife (or probably anyone for that matter)
  2. Heel cream is NOT toothpaste, even when enclosed in similar packaging with similar viscosity
  3. If it tastes funny, stop brushing.
  4. Your child vomiting on you is less onerous than your date vomiting on you. (which is very onerous… especially if you’re both naked)
  5. Operating on yourself with a pair of nail scissors may not lead to optimum results
  6. And also infection.
  7. And finally… your co-workers may be smarter than you give them credit for…

(This decoy didn’t work. Or rather, didn’t work for as long as I had intended)

    1. Thanks, sometimes it feels like the express train tho… blasting through all the stations you thought you might want to get off and have a look around for a bit

      1. Best in those cases to just hang on to the bar and wait until it really does come to a complete stop. I’d hate for you to break both your ankles with a hasty… erhm …dismount

    1. That is very Freudian. Well spotted! I don’t have much hope for improvement though… being as old as I am now. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks. Or something like that 😀
