Well, if Puck can turn her hair into a hard sticky-up thing, and rhino horns are really just hair....

...Instead of (allegedly) using rhino horn as an aphrodesiac, people should just take jobs sweeping up at the hairdressers.

But think of it! We could bake a little bit into the cake we give newcomers, and they would be forced to fall madly in love…no, you're right, that's enough of that line of thought!

I didn't mean for Ptolly to kill himself. I was *asking* if Puck's got the pox.
Isn't it ironic that the greatest supporter of the pointy stick is it's only victim I know of so far?

I haven't been around for a while, but I've been noticing the lack of PSD myself. Has he been gone, or did I scare him off?

That's what we like about you Kaz. You're so evil.
And yes, we have been missing psd for a bit, haven't we? Have to work on my aim.

Yes, ten points for the bad joke, but minus at least a hundred for making me snort soda out my nose.

Strangely enough, I don't seem to visualise what other people say so much as most people, so I don't suffer as terribly from mental images. Might be down to my habit of ignoring whatever anyone else says.

Yep, that would work. W/b Lenny, btw. Missed you. And still can't get on to the BBC writing thing.

MuseSusan, it's quite simple. You grasp your mind's eye and pull firmly until it tears, then you keep tugging until you've torn it out.
