Complaint Department discussion

1. Our contractor has been stealing a significant amount of money from my family
2. I plan on reading a whole lot in the next month
3. I'm working this break

2. the least likely

I'll go with #1 because I like to think the best of people.

#3 So… you're working this break — NOT!

Roger you win! Yeah...so nobody really wants to be tutored over winter break...imagine that

1. Yes like a shit ton of money has been stolen but our contractor is also certifiable soooo
2. little insulted Pres, gotta say. I plan on reading a lot more than usual as I don't have school work or regular work to do...

Great way to start a Monday in Christmas week, with a lie…

1) I want a white Christmas

2) The Christmas pudding is more than two years old

3) We already used up a load of Christmas crackers

Don't worry, Santa surely won't find out about it ;)

A load of crackers went with the goose on Saturday, the pud actually is more than two years old, but – bah humbug – I hate snow, so Monika hammered it!

Hold on a sec. If the pudding is more than two years old (holy crap! how's that possible?! It hasn't called from the pantry yet?! O.o' ), you used up crackers and you hate snow then Rick guessed the lie, not me :)

OMG, Monika, you're right!!! It must be because it's Monday and it's been raining all day, and cold, though hot and sweaty if dressed to go out, and… I just got it wrong.

Sorry Rick – You won!

P.S. A well made Christmas pudding will last for years if it's been made properly… like wedding cake.

Umm, sorry but it's a bit beyond me. It's with dried fruit, right? Doesn't it get stale or something?

And a hell of a lot of preserving brandy!

I have some new nicknames, among them are...

Yes, Roger. Surely that was too easy. Ricardo is not a new nickname. Roger wins!

Hah! Going to have some lunch first… :)

Speaking, as we were, about nicknames, during the time I was at school my nickname was:

1) Boge

2) Pug-Wog

3) Rebel

Marcie aces it! I certainly was a rebellious character at school, but never earned the name. My closest cousins (more like my brother and sister) couldn't say Roger properly and it came out as Boge, which nickname survives to this day with them and my boarding house school mates called me Pug or Wog or both; Pug short for Pugnacious and Wog (shamefully) because I lived in Nigeria and as all Brits know: "Wogs begin at Calais".

Thank you, Boge;)
Ok. Here goes.

1. I'm not an OKC (Oklahoma City Thunder) fan. But I am a fan of Kevin Durant.

2. I'm not a Cleveland Cavaliers fan. But I am a fan of Lebron James.

3. I'm not a Golden State Warriors fan. But I am a fan of Stephen Curry.

So, #1?

Must be #3, though it's not mine to win as Kit got there first :)

2. Heck to the no, I am not a Lebron fan! But I do fancy his teammate Kevin Love *waggles eyebrows* ;)

1. I am sooooo totally a fan of Kevin. Homeboy goes up to the stands and kisses his mom after the game. Plus this: http://youtu.be/krzL7dX6G94

3. Although Steph don't play for my team (the kids and) I are fans of his: http://youtu.be/FZ2hcYlRupM

So Monika, your are correct. Go for it, chica!

I've just had traditional twelve-dish Christmas Eve supper and...:

1. I can't move
2. I'm still hungry
3. I can't think

2

Yeah, I would've said #2, but I'll go with #3. Clearly it's a lie or you wouldn't be able to play this game. ;)

Well Rick, it took me about 15 min to come up with something to write so I had some problems with thinking xD but yeah, obviously #2 is a lie. Absinthe got to it first ;))

Robbed! I tell you I've been robbed!

;)

@ Rick: Robbed! I tell you I've been robbed!

Now, now, don't you know it's the Season of Goodwill? ;-)

Sorry for taking so long...yesterday was a fairly busy day afterall and today has been a very lazy day ^^

1. I got a leatherbound collection of lord of the rings and the hobbit for christmas
2. I got a leatherbound collection of the song of ice and fire series
3. I got a shirt that has all of wuthering heights written on it (in very small letters)

#3
I can't believe it could be possible xD

Say what?! First it was the Season of Solstice. Then it was the Season of Yule! Then they changed it to the Season of Christmas! Now you're telling me it's the Season of Goodwill! How does the Goodwill company get an entire Season named after it?! Foul! I cry: Foul! I can't keep up with this anymore! Every couple hundred years they have to rename the season... Oops. Ah. Yeah Season of Goodwill! It's always been that. Right? Right, of course. I'm just being silly.

(when was it not Season of Christmas? Rick mumbles to himself while frantically searching through his 2000 year diary)

preston wins! I did not get the leatherbound collection of lord of the rings, but I'm keeping it in mind for my birthday...

Kit, I hope you get that leatherbound collection of lord of the rings.

1. My New Years resolution is to pick up after myself and generally be less of a slob

2. My New Years resolution is cook healthier meals.

3. My New Years resolution is to not put things off so much but I have actually made that resolution yet because I'm procrastinating still.

#3 sounds like the lie :-)) And anyway, I hope #1 and #2 are truths :-)))

Roger Wins! I have already decided to resolve to not put things off so much. My resolution will fail but it's already made so 3 is the lie.

Wow, that was quick!

Well…

1)) My New Year's resolution is to smile even more at strangers.

2) My New Year's resolution is to make more money.

3 My New Year's resolution is to give up smoking.

#3, because you should do that and then #2 will happen because you won't be spending so much on stuff to smoke and then #1 will happen because you'll feel better about having more money and your health will improve.

So, yeah, I'm going with #3.

#1

Daing, Rick, check you out. That was pretty good :)

#2

Rick Logic, brain works faster than a speeding bullet… and correct

Of course #3 is a lie because I don't smoke. I do smile lots at total strangers out on the street, but I need to do more, and natch I need more money… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUfwo...

Unless you're in the 1%, don't we all? (and if you're in the 1%, you do think you do anyway)

My new Grand-Nephew Ezra did not get his name because:

1) His parents are HUGE fans of the band Better Than Ezra
2) His mom, my niece, adores Ezra Pound
3) Neither of his parents had an objection to the name
