I see you and raise you a “somebody at work just reheated fish in the microwave”.
The fuck? Who does that; isn’t that a universally understood problem?
Oh yeah, better get this in before Krayz regales us with tales of how he went to retrieve the dead python and it had been eaten by Razorback!
I like Christmas. I like the baking and I like doing christmassy stuff with my kids - but work combined with my commute means I’m gone 50 hours a week and find it hard to find the time. So as a consequence of this I started last year to take the first week of December off (remember, we commies gets around 7 weeks of vacation yearly).
So now I’ve got just over 3 kilos of gingerbread in my fridge and tomorrow me and the kids will construct a mansion.

Post pictures! Every year, I try and con someone into making a gingerbread house with me and no one ever will. My friends suck.

That sounds like so much fun - I am so jealous. For so many reasons… I get two weeks of vacation time this year, and I am blowing it at Christmas and taking “sick” leave for the wedding.
I miss Christmas stuff, but we’ll be in Vieques so… that’ll be fun.
I just found out that my premiere will be held at Mann’s Chinese Theater. Score!

I was solicited for sex outside there once, it sucked.

That is awesome Gary. I used to work down the street from there, fun place to be.
Physically I’ll be sitting in a Springfield, Oregon theater seat on January 15th, but I’ll be in Hollywood rubbing elbows with you and Denzel in spirit.

Are you saying ‘it’ because you’re unsure of the person’s gender?
The manner in which the solicitation was presented, the value of the act, or the sex itself?
Dude I cannot imagine the high you have right now. That is so awesome.
That reminds me. We walked down Hollywood Boulevard a few weeks back. The Road was premiering that day, no sign of Viggo though. However, we did get accosted by those crazy dudes dressed up as various film and comic characters. Here’s me on the right wondering whether Spiderman really should be wearing pants…

When we got back to Oz, we saw this all over the news. Clearly the cops thought so too…

I need to read that news story, I don’t understand the context of what’s going on.
People dressed up as movie characters hassling tourists (and occasionally fighting with one another) is a pretty common occurrence along the walk of fame.

That sounds like the makings of a great reality show.
He was arrested for hitting someone. Incidentally, my wife felt like hitting the guy dressed up as Chucky who “stabbed” her with a rubber knife. The knife itself wasn’t remotely dangerous, but having some midget rush up to you and mock stab you with a rubber toy is pretty much asking for trouble. In the end she said to him “That’s not a fucking knife, mate” in her best Australian accent.

This is probably a better thread for it:
I go to the gym three times a week together with my father, as he has a car and I don’t. This morning, on the way back from the gym, he tells me my sister called yesterday and told them her daughter had called her at work because a strange man had, on her way back from school, shown her his pee-pee, and then later, as she was going into their house, had been sitting in a car outside ‘shaking his pee-pee’. They’ve been to the police station and reported it.
When the red mist of rage started to clear from in front of my eyes, the thought struck me: the damned fool has chosen possibly the WORST little girl to inflict his abominable perversions on. See, her mother is a cop. She works in the Norwegian National Criminal Investigation Service. Her father is a cop, too. He works as a patrol leader in the very area it happened. And her grandad? Ex-cop. Used to lead the intelligence division in the National Criminal Investigation Service. Additionally, as my father explained, my niece, being an intelligent little girl, had immediately written down everything she could remember about the guy and his car before calling her mum.
Even so, it’s a horrible thing to have to hear, that your not even ten year old little niece has had something like that inflicted on her.

That’s horrible Thoro, hope they catch the creep. Where did this happen? Having small kids myself i’m a bit paranoid of this, and we have one of these creeps in our vicinity (Furuset for the locals) as well.
In unrelated news, my 2 daughters have been ill with some kind of stomach bug the last three days. They are more or less constantly vomiting, last night my 4 year old vomited 10 times. I have long ago lost count of the number of pillows, blankets, pyjamas (pyjamii?), floors and carpets i have washed. Fun times.

It was in Fet, in Akershus.
