I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

People regularly assume I'm 10 years younger than my real age. Which means that when people see Pete and I out at dinner at a nice place, an awful lot of them assume I'm Pete's mid-life crisis freaky goth chick arm doily. I'm amused by it, but it makes him a bit cranky

Poor Pete. Would it help him to be reminded that he looks a good five years younger than his age?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Yeah, probably not so much.

"My reindeer flies sideways"

Heh. We had "my reindeer is yellow; yours is a pea-green" but that's all I've ever been able to remember. And now I wish I hadn't, since Pomp and Circumstance is a horridly tenacious earworm.

Good luck convincing him of that. He won't believe me.

But it's TRUE.

Silly Pete. He looks no older than mid-30s.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

He's older than mid-30s? I wouldna guessed (and I'm not saying so for feelgood purposes, either.)

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

He's older than mid-30s? I wouldna guessed (and I'm not saying so for feelgood purposes, either.)

Same surprise here.

The evil is this way?

"My reindeer flies sideways"

It was "My rabbit flies sideways..." in my school.

He will be 39 in mid-March, and he's very bitter about it. Silly man.

(Why yes, I'm ignoring EVERYTHING about the inauguration. La la la la ...)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Dude. I was thinking that Pete was 33, 34 TOPS. Huh.

He will be baffled, but happy when I tell him this.
