As a lad, I had perfect vision. The medical experts informed me that they had never encountered such a perfect specimen before.
However, during my time travels, I ended up at Trafalgar. Nelson was sick in bed, so they asked me, knowing my tactical genius and powers of leadership, to take over. Unfortunately, during the battle, I lost an eye. Fortunately, I've just invented a new machine for the Australian government that can instantly cure any physical problem.

I don't talk about my kids. I belong to the growing band who MOAN about them. When ARE they going to leave home? Oh, there's a lovely security job going on an aboriginal reserve in Frazer island, why don't you apply?

Also, if he drops groin-first into a black hole, the difference in gravity between the root and the tip would be enough to stretch it a very long way, like spaghetti.
I've dropped my bits in a few black holes. Didn't notice any increase in size sadly...

Also bad...people sending a round robin letter at Christmas detailing their family exploits over the past year, and how little Justin is doing exceptionally well at school.
No, I don't fecking care about your little turd. Tell it to the grandparents; I'm sure they're interested in the product of your sperm experiment, but I'm not.
Even worse...sending a Christmas card from the family and the bloody cat! Mr Tibbles wishes you all a Merry Christmas and will shortly be round to crap in your garden.
