The pre-moderated one is Eames, I believe. That means we can say what we want about him, and by the time he can respond, we'll all have moved on

Hi GFC

I'm off home, talk to you about serious, adult topics tomorrow

Strange. Me and CCE are now the sensible clean ones and everyone else is the filthy smut merchants.

Bye CCE

From this day on, I will be teetotal. Cold turkey. Clean.

"From this day on, I will be teetotal. Cold turkey. Clean."

From what? Are you a secret boozehound?

From smutiness!

I don't like the taste of alcohol

No one likes the taste of it. That's not the point.

I'll give you about half an hour before you're smutty again.

Then what's the point? I've completely missed it.

I've been good for the last few days, smutwise!

Getting drunk. Upsetting friends and family. Spending too much money. Causing your body irreperable damage and struggling with addiction. It's really rather good.

I can upset friends and family and overspend when sober!

Is that good or bad?

To me it just says you need alcohol to push you to the very limits of your potential.

I kind of feel like Anakin Skywalker, and you're the Emperor telling me one act of hate will fulfill my destiny to the Dark Side

Don't try and Star Wars up this otherwise touching moment.

Why not? Star Wars is beautiful! I love the Imperial March.

I prefer imperial mints.

DUM DUM DUM DUM DUMDUM DUM DUMDUM, TUM TUM TUM TUM TUMTUM TUM TUM!

You can't do that with Imperial mints.

You can't freshen your breath with the imperial march.

But you CAN use the Dark Side of the force. I can choke people without even touching them. And all I have to do is walk in a threatening manner, and the music plays.

These are not the people you want to choke.

I know But I'll get told off if I reveal who I DO want to choke.
