Bloodsucking, friendship, ukuleles, frostbite, a dead poet and a rather unusual hat

Today I left school at the perfect time, which was quarter to four. This has, really fairly improbable for a whole bunch of reasons: my school officially ends at four; I have a lesson until four on a Thursday; I am not predisposed to skive gratuitously; I am even less disposed to skive off English lessons. It becomes somewhat less surprising ( Read more... )

My head is spinning. As such, I shall reveal what I feel to be more monumental than Stonehenge. This narrowly won out over the pix of Bonaparte having tea XD



And when I recover somewhat, I may have something witty to say about all the above, but until then... *huggles him and twirls him around like a twirly thing*

:DDDDDDD

Bonaparte having tea? Where? How dare he? HE IS THE NEMESIS OF BRITAIN HOW DARE HE DRINK OUR TEA?

(Actually I quite like Boney on principle, but that's because I am a Byron fan. But there we go...)

I AM A TRUE DEVOUT TO THE TEA SHRINE AND SHALL NOT FORSAKE IT FOR THE HEINOUS COFFEE USURPER! That said, Bonaparte is having tea in my link to tea shrine art. Sadly, he does not have a hat. Also, history sure holds a grudge, young padawan ;p

He may be drinking uh, green tea? And do you have a teasmade?

(I suspected you would favour Byron. And also that you're the 6th Spice Girl in hiding XD)

Coffee isn't bad, you know. It simply isn't tea... Bonaparte should wear a hat. And history most certainly does not bear a grudge. I do. But there are few things that can fire me up into a patriotic fervour, and tea is one of them. (The other two thus discovered so far being Dr Who and the Queen. Not the monarchy itself, which I think is fairly rubbish, but the Queen, because she is made of classy. And totally pwned Bush.)

...I must confess that I don't actually know what a teasmade actually is... :S

(Byron is awesome. He's just a rockstar, really, from before guitars went all electric. :D Not only did he write Darkness and masses and masses of rhyming, metrical snark, but he also genrebended. :D

I refuse to comment on the other accusation.)

To me, it is. Like your views on Napoleone di Buonaparte. Can Waterloo not settle the grudge? Also, have you tried bubble tea? It's the bouncy, poppy bastard half-cousin everyone tries not to acknowledge but is impossible to resist, because it is infectiously whee~ XD

I kept forgetting to tell you that I adore your new layout. Very alkaline, streamlined, coolistic and so you, down to the subway map (of London?). Although the stockholm version is a little less cluttered and more organised XD I always wondered: if you could have a moniker (and since the likes of Beans is taken), what would it be, to show your awesomeness?

A teasmade is a terrific gizmo that boils water and along the way, as the water reaches that point, it can either be an alarm clock because it makes so much noise as it climaxes, or for other purposes. See the link next to my link of tea shrine art.

Byron is... er, no comment. Until you comment on my other 'accusation' XD

It's not a grudge, it's an assertion of national pride. We kicked his arse, because he forgot how awesome he used to be. And bubbletea sounds terrifying and very unBritish.

Thank you. :-) I just got a little bored of the other one, really. I wish it was the London Underground map, because I really love it, but it's just a generic subway map and I'm not awesome enough to try to make my own layout. :P

As for names, I'm honestly not sure. This works; it's a little clumsy and a little awkward, but it's mine, I suppose. *shrugs* Alizarine would be an awesome name, though... :p

I cannot comment. It isn't true. I'm too young. Too young, I tell you!
