I did not care for The Godfather.

Did not- couldn't get into it.

It insists upon itself

I confess to starting a fictitious thread about leaving in an effort to garner attention.

YeeHa

After 17 posts, a total log in time of 7 hours and 2 personal messages from a good friend of mine (DD12) I too have decided to call it quits.

Truth be told ziggy's leaving hit me more than I ever could have wished to admit.

That and the fact that it's a bit shit.

The Three Wolf Moon T-Shirt became an internet phenomenon when it began selling on amazon. Its basically a black t-shirt with three wolves howling at the full moon but after a spate of ironic reviews went viral sales of the kitsch Three Wolf Moon T-shirt shot up 2,300%

The first review gave the shirt five stars, saying it "Pros: Fits my girthy frame, has wolves on it, attracts women
Cons: Only 3 wolves (could probably use a few more on the 'guns'), cannot see wolves when sitting with arms crossed, wolves would have been better if they glowed in the dark."

That prompted hundreds of others to post frivolous reviews, turning the page into an internet phenomenon.

"When I put this T-shirt on for the first time, my wife left me! Thank you, Three Wolf Moon T-Shirt," wrote one wag, while another said that "the Three Wolf Moon T-Shirt gave me a +10 resistance to energy attacks, +8 Strength... and I have successfully solved 7 crimes in my city".

Other gems include

"I had a two-wolf shirt for a while and I didn't think life could get any better. I was wrong. Life got 50% better, no lie"

"Recently, my girlfriend asked me to meet her parents. I was hesitant at first, and declined the offer for a couple of months. Finally, she wore me down and got me to agree. Her parents are rich enough to own Bill Gates, and they insisted that we go to some nice steak restaurant. Despite her objections, I wore this shirt.

The first thing her father noticed on me was this shirt and, upon shaking my hand, he started to call me son. As soon as we sat down, he wrote me a check for 100,000 dollars and told me to call him if I ever needed anything, and her beautiful mother began rubbing my leg in a not unpleasent way.

Half way through the dinner, a man collapsed at the table next to us. I jumped to my feet and assessed the situation. I discovered that he was choking on a rather large piece of steak. Now I have no medical training, but the shirt showed me how to save this man's life. And I did.

So grateful for my actions, the man paid for my dinner and gave me the keys to his new corvette outside. Then the waiters all gave me their tips, winking at me and mouthing "nice shirt."

Later that night, my girlfriend couldn't keep her hands off of me. She wanted me. Being no fool, I kept the shirt on. She said the pleasure was so intense she forgot her own name for a minute. We're getting married next week, and I haven't taken the shirt off since.
Only downside: I turn into a werewolf on full moon nights when I wear the shirt. And I occasionally wake up to Carlos Mencia singing in my bathroom. Be warned."

"wolves upon my shirt
howling, i stalk my prey too
in my mom's basement "

"I bought this shirt from this site without reading the reviews and now, my life is pretty much over. It's just me and my disability check in this cozy trailer from now on.

It was just, like, I saw the shirt when I was looking to buy my boyfriend a gift for his birthday. The wolves... they, like, called to me from the webpage and I pushed the one click button immediately. And when it arrived and I was wrapping it for my man, I kept touching it thinking, "he is going to look soooooooooooooooooo hot in this shirt. Look at all those HOWLING WOLVES! One wolf would have been pretty sexy, but three of them? That's so triple of the sexy!

He loved it, of course, and then he went and wore it to the bar. Three days later, he came back to our trailer, packed his bag, and left me for one of the many ladies that were drawn to him and the "magical" shirt. Magical for him, maybe... but not to ME. I'm so lost without him.
I hate you, wolf shirt."

"After I bought this shirt, Chuck Norris rang my doorbell and told me he's my father."

"Three Wolf Tee, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Three-wolf-tee: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Three. Wolf. Tee. "

"First off, the wicked awesome wolves are what attracted me to this shirt.
hands down, these wolves mean business and make you look dang sharp.
But once you start wearing it and incorporating it into your lifestyle, a whole new world opens up for you. Its almost as if you start wearing gang colors that associate you with the coolest group of people on the whole planet; wolf poeple. Whenever I go out with this shirt, I know my people will take care of me. I started getting into free movies, free bojangles chicken, the best huntin spots. Most law enforcement agents are wolf enthusiasts as well and I can't tell you how many times this shirt has gotten me off the hook. Right now I own 4 so I can keep them fresh in my rotation.
Beyond the style and social implications; this is just a quality shirt. It doesnt chaffe on a hot day, the dark fabric hides my girth pretty well and it doesnt show blood stains at all. This shirt is the total package, order one now and begin your new life."

if the population of china walked past u in single file, the line would never end due to its rate of population growth

(unless things have changed since A-level geography circa 2007)

face.that.ball is Circa 20 years old.


oh to be circa 20 years old filthy dog.....id do it all differently....i actually retired teaching from geography in 2007 and once you get out of marking coursework case studys you lose track of the population growth rates of NICs (thats newly industrailised countries to those not privy to the geography a-level syllabus (your never fully retired))
