Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Oh, making fun of German is an old pasttime. Tim Allen even had a bit when he was still a comedian :D

Played a bit of King of Dragon Pass, and the Toronto ball club haunted me with ghost legalese.

It has always been the language of love.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

I really need to change energy company.
My old one was one of the many to go under and I was passed onto shell, who I have past horrific experience with.
Plus shell. Evil evil.
My costs are nearly 3x what they were before. And that's despite summer :bleeding:

Ooof :(

Though I'm not sure switching helps much with costs at the minute.

My energy company went bust before the whole energy price thing. Transferred to Scottish Power who have basically been fine - but similar, my bills have more than doubled. But I'm on Direct Debit so I think it's calculated on what they expect me to consume over a year and then divided by twelve - so I think I normally build up credit over summer and then debit over the winter?

Changing power company. Similar, yet so different.

It's part of his "charm" that makes him so "popular" with the "voters." :P
