    It's a strange phrase that you use in the boomed threads, isn't it? So strange in fact that the only other person to have ever used it on here is MF.

    What are the odds on that? I am in no way suggestion that you're one of his creations, really I'm not. No, seriously, I'm not.
    Maybe a little Peanut Butter Jelly :P

    For those that dont get it, I assume they dont watch family guy? Bad times, you need to get on that. Oh, and Im no-ones sockie :P

    After 3 years of lurking this post finally made me register and comment!

    While working as a permie I had a contractor on my team who dragged himself in for a day with the flu (real thing, not man flu), one by one the rest of the team including me took ill and missed at least 5 days of work. I have never been so sick before or since, we terminated him based on the time lost.

    Oh, hi everyone.

    Do you really need to remember the names of your food though?
