The Boredom Thread Version I

It's a good one isn't it, Wabbit? I keep a plaque-type thing of it on my desk at work...probably my favorite, if I HAD to pick just one poem:


OUT of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.​

It's especially fitting on some of my more trying days at work! My favorite line to quote being "MY head is bloody, but unbowed." ;)
 
This is the one i have been looking for...

This was an interesting post, and it helped to know more about each other. Since more new members were here, i just thought it might be fun. If any of you would like to play, here you are. and Thank you, Stella Leanna! :D

PS: please be kind not to use the info for some indecent (or disgusting) purpose, insulting others for example.
 
I'm an ignorant, disruptive, vindictive, verbally diarrhetic monkey who deserves no place to hide in this expansive, beautiful and eternally enlightening void of nothingness.

We should all learn to offer each other verbal-hugs and give prosaic platitudes all day, everyday. Then, and only then, will the sun shine and the birds sing.

insect: Midges
smell: Bananas
expression (e.g. “like duh!”): 'What's up?' in the greeting sense. It's ok to say 'awww what's up?'' in a 'what's wrong' manner. I also hate people who say 'Can you borrow me....?' instead of lend, and 'Freya's going to learn me how to knit' instead of teach. :mad:

PERSONAL QUESTIONS (like I said, don’t need to answer all. And don’t blame me or anyone on the boards if what you say goes out.. this is a warning!)

longest crush (how long and who): Sigh... There was a boy who everyone went through a phase of adoring, but none of us can figure out why. I can provide pics and maybe you can help.
worst offense at school: Sleeping with my german teacher. Alright I lied. It was forgetting my Bible. Or not pulling my socks up. Or forgetting my PE kit.
embarrassing moment: Well, having a scrapey gravel face is pretty embarrassing. Also when I looked in the mirror yesterday afteroon, I saw I'd been walking round with blue toothpaste on my forehead for the past 3 hours.

THE “BE AN INSPIRATION” HOOEY =p

Someone I knew used to work in a pub called the Sun. She shagged quite a few of the regulars in there (including a couple of my best mates). Apart from her ten year relationship she me I think every man in her life was first encountered in that pub.When she split up with one temporary BF she was really upset and weepy. So I said, "Don't worry. There's plenty more fish in the Sun". Everybody thought it was hilarious (except her of course). It was one of thos snorting beer and peanuts down your nose moments. You probably had to be there.
