I need to liven this place up a bit.

What would be the worst gift someone could give you?

Me: Tickets to a musical.

I got given a calendar with spelling mistakes in it once (Temu). Some other gifts:

  • top with random anime on it that neither I nor the giver knew (her mother bought it)
  • an avocado (I actually used this one)
  • live laugh love Kim Jong Un banner (best gift ever)
  • two chickens, which lead to my chicken eating hiatus. Dad gave them away after a year because mum said they shit too much.
  • toilet paper with puzzles on it
  • things to do while you poo book by "Hugh Jassburn"

Push? Grunt? Consider more fibre in your diet?

I'll have to get the book out when I'm home and see what it says :D

Ummm. I have this book at home. Someone gave it to the OH for Christmas last year. In fairness, he does spend an awful lot of time in the smallest room of the house!

Interesting.

This is my book. It tells the history of bathroom products.
