I'll let it go this time, because it's a fairly interesting message.
BUT! If anyone else posts a self-indulgent "It's my birthday!" thread without making it even slightly interesting to read, then I shall give them a frowning they won't ever forget.
Head my words, citizen.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

What's amusing about the Roller Girl is that the young boy holding her left hand is staring at her breasts while smiling wickedly. He started on the path to manhood that day.
Happy birthday, Mike!

PsyLiam, maybe you weren't reading properly. I didn't say anything about my birthday. I'm tired of you putting words in my mouth. Are you a re-re?
