This sentence filled me with a sinking feeling of cold dread. *cringe* Stupid 2009 Juniper...

It's not so bad, see:

Anyway, I hope that I can learn a few things as well as pass a few things on, I have already come across a couple of must read books having just read a few threads. This thing could be dangerous!

:lol::lol::lol:

Haha, reading, listening to music, drinking beer and sleeping. Boy Neely, how you've changed!

Oh dear that's embarrassing, but yes it does seem pretty accurate. 2005? It says that I've joined in 2008? I don't know, I don't even remember joining or that post, it's just a haze. I was probably under influence at the time. That's how exciting my life is, some people after drinking and a hazy wild night find themselves next to a strange women ("who are you?") or find unusual traffic cones/road signs scattered across the room - something like that etc, etc; me, I join a literature forum! As my current monkier says "Bohemian", notice the intended irony there?

Well not genius exactly but an attempt liven up an incredibly boring thread.
What could be more tedious than....'An apple' or 'Nuts' or most mind-bendingly soul destroying and my personal bête noire ...'Lime flavoured popsicle' ?

True, and also I'm often scared at some of those "foodstuffs" that some of our dear American friends bring up. I saw something the other day that someone had put it about a sausage on a stick wrapped in a pancake with chocolate chips!!! I obviously thought it was a wind-up but then, who knows, with cheese in a can and pizza for breakfast, you never know?:D

Yeah, that was my fault when I was copy that post over I couldn't remember your year so I took a stab at 2005.

Did you know you and bean joined right around the same time??

:D Juniper's turn:

Hahaha, I guess that one's not so bad; I just got a little excited. It's better than some of the things you could have picked, I've said some pretty weird things - none of which are quite as weird as this:

1) :lol:

2) Context is everything, it was a different time on litnet (there were pirates and ninjas roaming freely, we were always on the look out for Stan's Dastardly ship)

3) See!! I still agree!!

Yes I saw that sausage contraption, it's not for nothing that the US is home to the word 'gimmick', and it seems to be part of that vast swathe of inconsequential junk that flows in US capitalism's wake, such as Barbie Dolls, Ninja Turtles, Muppets, Action Man etc. etc. and which is usually manufactured abroad and sold back to credulous buyers in the US and elsewhere. Though nobody is ever going to better the giggling Sigmund Freud shown on LitNet a while back. I'm already laughing again.
