Etiquettes Schmetiquettes!

Let me first give you time to untwist your tongue after reading that title! And in the case of "Froggie", check the meaning of the first word and be given ample time to figure out that the second word doesn't exist.
 
Sorry dearie, just had to take that shot!
 
Alright, what's up? Well, work is going fine. Classes are going fine. Life is great!
 
I'm sure we've all read that e-mail on urinal etiquette about which urinal to occupy (or not occupy) depending on the circumstances. I'd like to add to that. No matter how urgent, no matter how full the bladder, no matter how quickly you're losing control (enough details?), should you rush to occupy a urinal which was just vacated even if there is no one else waiting in line. Don't ask me why... it's just something you shouldn't do. Try it yourself and let me know if it feels right.
 
Phew! Feels good to get that off my adonis-like chest! Now... what else?
 
Haha! The computer classes I've been taking have a whole bunch of computers connected on a network. So it should come as no surprise that I've been messing around with the computers of the other students. Bear in mind, they are all working men aged 30 and above.
 
There they are, merrily typing away, running a series of programs when "wattzis? My computer just restarted!" or "Huh? I just got logged out" or "The computer just opened a new window filled with comments making fun of me!". And there I am at the back of the class, holding back waves of laughter and trying to remove all trace that I did anything at all!
 
Don't you "tut-tut!" me! It's the only way I can stay awake in the class! I just keep drifting off... Lack of sleep and an abundance of boring lectures do that to a person! Even coffee is useless!
 
Oh! I finally figured out why coffee helps people stay awake. It's not the caffeine... it's the shock that accompanies a burnt tongue!
 
Man! Course enrollment is tough! There's no way that I can pick one course! Uff! And those artsies think that they've got it rough! TCH! Yeah, that's right... I just said "TCH"
 
Inspiration!!! -> "Tch" is just a sound effect we make when we're exasperated... I just realised its origin. It's desi (Ok, own up... which one of you lot started singing "Show me the meaning of being desi!"?) and what's more... it stands for something. Something we all want to say to "Frenchie" whenever we see him. "Tum C*****ya Ho" ROFL
 
By the way, "Lone Ranger", since you're really bored staying at home, why don't you take control of wooing "Frenchie" with the 'special' MSN account? However, take your time. I know you'll need a few minutes to vacate Mike's knot! Ooh! Dis!
 
Ok, to be serious for a moment, who the hell is 'we' and "what the hell, yaar?" Ah wait, that's "Midas"' line. Who is we and what is it that you guys think you know that I should be telling you? I have no idea what's going on! In the words of the ever-so eloquent "Artsie", "ALL MY FRIENDS ARE ***"
 
Hmm, I think I need to change the layout of the page. This dark format is disheartening. I need something more perky and peppy with a touch of pizazz! I want... *And Pink is my favourite colour!...*
 
Oh! I went go-karting with my cousin. Karts that go up to 90 kph. Karts that skid like crazy when you don't use brakes on sharp turns! Karts that squeeze all the fat out of you (sniff! I lost whatever little fat I had) But they were AWESOME! Soooo much fun zipping around in a little kart though it bruised me in several places because of the cramped quarters. I was so stiff afterwards that it was hard to move around afterwards. Still! I'm going again on Thursday hopefully!
 
Bah, class time and I need to go take a tinkle on a cake... a urinal cake that is... ooh, too many details again?
