Very, very happy indeed!
Why do toddlers do a big stinky poo in their nappies within 2 minutes of getting on a crowded bus? Even when they've only just 'been'?

I took my dog to play frisbee. She was useless. I think I need a flatter dog.

What rhymes with purple?

Re: Mysteries
Now then, it was on QI the other night - there are 2 words in the English language (albeit not very well known words) that actually rhyme with 'purple'. Couldn't tell you what they are, though. That would be far too useful, wouldn't it?

I think one of them was something like Lurpal - and had something to do with a horse! But I wouldn't quote me on that!citizentwiglet wrote:Now then, it was on QI the other night - there are 2 words in the English language (albeit not very well known words) that actually rhyme with 'purple'.

Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
