One of my team at work broke his cheekbone recently playing rugby on the beach (!).
Owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
When she fetched him from hospital, with his face all wired up, his (astonishingly cute) girlfriend apparently commented:
“You look like Frankenstein. Then again, you weren’t exactly Brad Pitt to start with”.
He’s not really in a fit state to administer the sound spanking to her that said comment clearly deserves.
Should I offer my services ? Helping a wounded colleague, and all that?
(Thing is, I’ve known her for years, she’s a close friend and I’ve long suspected that she might enjoy it…)
“Not Brad Pitt”?? The guy is so tasty, it’s unbelievable. When he gets better (because seriously, owww), wash him and bring him to my tent.
…And the girlfriend too.
Is he from the English northeast perchance? I only ask because I’ve learned from experience that to say something that sounds extremely harsh rather than something comforting is seen as the truest expression of affection.
No I don’t know why. Ask me after another 11 years please. 😉
Haron… don’t be greedy now!
I’m good at sharing 😉
That comment really DOES deserve a spanking! Maybe you, Abel, can spank the girlfriend while Haron consoles him…? 😉
If the guy really is no Brad Pitt, I think comments like that are fair enough. A girl’s got to take every opportunity she has to put her man in his place…
Exactly, Fiona. Whatever happened to rising above it and being the bigger person?!
Though I am inclined to put my faith in Haron’s taste and not his girlfriend’s so… when you’re done, Haron, may I please have him?
And whilst we’re sharing… Can I borrow him after you, Smudge?
Fiona – here I am eating a delicious piece of chocolate cake, and there you go making me almost choke on it (in *peels* of laughter). You go, Girl!
(what will Abel say…?!??)
Course you can, Evie! And speaking of sharing… can I have some cake, Rayne? Pretty please?
And quite frankly, who cares what Abel will say?! Except maybe Haron. But it wasn’t her, it was Fiona, so it’s all good
Really, Smudge and Evie– what is all this passing around of this poor guy as if he had no life of his own or any say in the matter?! Certainly the two of you can organize your schedules with Haron’s so that the three of you can enjoy him simultaneously? 😉
or him *and* Abel simultaneously? ooh I would gladly give up my cake for a piece of that bit of fun… 😉
…I’m happy to just watch and eat the cake! It’s going to have to be a big tent that he’s washed and sent to at this rate 😉
Indiana – I’m sure there’s no need to ask him, he wouldn’t mind being passed around. I think. After his face heals maybe LOL
I’ll just entertain myself with his girlfriend, then, whilst you girls pass him around from one to the other…
