When you type 55378008 in a calc and turn it upside down you'll see the results, its kinda of an old joke so i think thats what it means.. :confuzzled:

I've done 5316006....................

Why can't you respect a man with a dog? how about if the mn was 7ft 6 and the dog was a 5 foot, growling wolverine monster covered in blood. And the leash was a rusty, oily chain. And the man drove a motorbike. And he was competing in a cross-country bike race. With crowbars.............

Okey... 1)Droping you're blankit on the floor during the night and waking up shivering is awful. 2)You can tell when someones been up two nights in a row. Ney. i give. x(Z)x

o the 5 thing, lol. boobless thats wrong. somehow those are all scary though..... like they are all true.

Danny 02-01-2002 08:05 PM

Number 1 is the most Fundamental Law of the Universe... :D

30 is wrong, though. It's Lego...

Teal 02-02-2002 12:29 PM

Hm... maybe that's a way to avoid going back to bed after getting up to switch the alarm clock off... put the alarm clock in an old, empty biscuit tin and scatter lego all over the bedroom floor before you go to bed (or even better, drawing pins)...

Try sleeping after THAT. :D

10 is so true, though... But I dispute 7! (all my sharpeners are knackered, the only way to get it sharp is to use a scalpel)
14) - or a doll's head/deflated child's football.
17) Odd, I remember doing that... *hides* Especially in front of the rest of class... Thank Odd (I think) I've grown out of that. I think I'd die if I called Dr Upton "dad"...
28) there is an explanation for that. They're hiding, as they knew if they made their name known I would hunt them down and personally kill them. Damn coathangers...
*murderous looks*
