ah, the rich friend
a staple of communities and friend groups everywhere.
normally found in their wild habitat, frolicking among money trees and sipping gently from lakes of tea

its not that expensive though, i just like exaggerating.
calling smile a psycho though wasnt an exaggeration. seriously, send him my way if you find him; he got off his leash again.

I'll take a look into it myself and see if I can afford it.

I'll keep that in mind, but I've seen neither hide nor hair of the guy. What'd he do this time?

hope you can cough up the money, or like, a kidney to sell or something

... See, this is why I've been thinking of getting a job. Anyway, I might try to get Shindou to be a charitable friend... not that I think he'd refuse.

Right, so find him asap, got it.

good thing hes such a sweet, wonderful, generous, intelligent friend and i am not sucking up to him in case hes reading this whatsoever

and yeah basically
i dont think i need to remind you of my childhood horror stories.
hes a nice guy and all, but hes also a threat to humanity.

Not to mention generous.

Yeah, I... remember some of them pretty clearly. Clearly enough I don't need to be reminded of the ones I forgot.

right, and generous
did i mention handsome? because hes totally handsome
and intelligent
also amazing
anything i forgot?

you see, he is the exact reason we cant have nice things.
god looked down at us when he was born and said "yo this babys gonna fuck shit up when hes older
better damn them all for making him"

Nah, I think you covered everything.

I figured there were more reasons in there, but Smile's enough on his own, isn't he?

[personal profile] ironoxides 2013-02-11 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
definitely

he is to the world as the rain was to jonahs ark
or as darth vader was to everything ever
or as gum is to bottom of shoes and carpets

because you know carpets totally rue the day that gum was invented, just like we all definitely rue the day he was born.

Oh, believe me, I found that one out the hard way.

Also mind your head if you're told to get under them for an earthquake drill.

I'm glad I actually looked before I ducked under. It was disgusting.

I've been told I'm good at derailing conversations.
