This explains a lot. You obviously studied rhetoric with a master. That, or you were the only tall gay hobbit in the village.

Careful there Harry... for a second you started to slip from Gollum to that annoying little Jar-Jar-Binks character with the sock fetish from Harry Potter. Just think "Obsession with understated jewelry and sashimi; Cool-Geek. Obsession with smelly footwear; Crap-Geek."
Oh, and Swede is a very underrated vegetable.

I was mostly inspired by the feminism posts at LP. It occured to me that a normal human being became twisted by something until he was irrevocably changed. It got to the point where his 'precious' was the thing he loathed but he loved it because it defined him. Add the randomness off him being playful and then bitter, and you have EP and feminism to a T.
"Oh, and Swede is a very underrated vegetable."
Since the Internet people must be sick of Forbattle specific in-jokes, it's nice to go the other way...

Don't get me started on Ikea. I could be tempted to go over to the EP Dark Side if somebody would promise to wreak a horrible vengeance on those peddlers of furniture porn.

I have quite a bit of Ikea furniture myself. It's cheap. We're poor. A match made in wannabe-yuppie heaven. So I can forgive the tall white-haired Scandinavians for Ikea. Though actually going there is a real pain in the arse.

So what would change? Save your pennies and invest in decent furniture. Life's too short for Ikea.

"Save your pennies and invest in decent furniture."
# Thinking about it my stuff is what my dad bought me when I was fifteen!
I do save my pennies, but I spend it on wine and stuff. [Currently sleeping on foam mattresses on the floor in appropriate boho fashion]

Yeah but Fyodor you still need something to lie on/stack books on/keep your other stuff in while you save your pennies. I personally look at Ikea as being a transitional phase between uni student crap furniture and the qood quality investment stuff.
I'm not saying it hasn't got flaws, but that it fulfills a function.

I wonder if anyone could provide an alternate sequence of captions for the same run of photos? It could be a meme...

**It occured to me that a normal human being became twisted by something until he was irrevocably changed. ***
Yada yada yada Harry, you did it because you like to get naked and prance in front of a camera. Don't wrap it up in "i'm so deep" crap. We all know better. 
I bought some Ikea stuff last week, and put it together all by myself. I feel like i'm passing into adulthood. No longer do i have a milkcrate covered with a African blanky for my bedside table. I now have a small table covered with a African blanky for a bedside table.
I wonder what will happen when i reach 33?
(Ob still has his bucket...)

oh, and put myself firmly in the loving of Ikea camp. If for no other reason that it comes apart to move easily every time you move house. I have a bookcase that has lived in 7 different houses now in 2 states. Easy to put in an upstairs bedroom or in tricky to get to apartments. Can be moved by one person. tell me that's not genius!

Look, just because you didn't get the meta-joke and therefore aren't ubercool doesn't mean you can get all personal on my ass. Sure, it's understandable (no one likes to be a loozer4) but it isn't justified.
Oh, and Fyodor! You can just.... wait.

If Coz wants to get the meta jokes, she needs to start hanging out with the cool kids.
Well, the cool kids are a couple of real fucking nutjobs.

I think "posting" and "commenting" are two different things Harry.
Like, "Back in Yr 11 2U English when I had to write Pride and Prejudice."
