I'm just glad my clock was clean.

WHERE IS A SERIOUS GIRL, WHO REALLY AIMS UNSUCCESSFUL CLOCK STORE?

― Egon KENTOR (nickdastoor), Thursday, 27 November 2003 09:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Everybody needs clocks, so why would your clock store be unsuccessful? Would you be selling broken clocks or something?

The clock in my office is broken. It's a lovely Wallace & Gromit one which I was given for Christmas last year but sadly the hour hand has fallen off it. I know it's currently five past something, but I don't know what :(

― C J (C J), Thursday, 27 November 2003 10:01 (twenty-two years ago)

YES!

i din't think that's the kind of girl jess is talking about - he's a rebel, ken, a loner

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 27 November 2003 12:48 (twenty-two years ago)

Everyone needs clocks, but clocks tend to be the kind of thing one purchases only very rarely--when an old clock breaks or when you move into a new place or something. You need to offer at your store things besides clocks. I suggest also selling busts of Abraham Lincoln.

There's an unsuccessful clock store in Dunedin. The guy who owns the shop always acts as if you're 'pushing him too far' but it's a good shop because it's not a jewellers, it's purely devoted to horology. He has a blacked out window onto the street with a little gap in it through which you can watch him mending clocks (even though he seems annoyed by people?)

― maryann (maryann), Saturday, 29 November 2003 06:50 (twenty-two years ago)

ain't no one but people breaks clocks

― mark s (mark s), Saturday, 29 November 2003 10:06 (twenty-two years ago)

maryann- is that guy married with children?

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Saturday, 29 November 2003 10:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Julio - no, I really don't think so - I have reason to think he's not married because a notorious liar in Dunedin told me that he knew him, according to this guy, he's an ex-junky, and he sort of seems like one. He never looks you in the eye. I suppose my interest in him is a bit corny because he really is like the classic 'underground man' character. It's awful writing this - imagine if by some chance he ever read it - though there's no reason to think he would.

Clock girl is a mystery. What makes her tick?

you fucker i still cant believe you stole this from me and posted it to ile so you could pick up internet hoes

― _, Tuesday, 18 October 2005 03:22 (twenty years ago)

I'll give you a tip: Don't marry the clockmaker's daughter.

1) If you do your clock store will probably be successful due to her clockmaking expertise.

2) I hear she's a lousy lay.

― Hurting (Hurting), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 04:39 (twenty years ago)

I read this as:

"do you think someday i will find a girl to marry and open an unsuccessful COCK store with?"

Fiddo, i'm getting the feeling that nathalie might not be the girl for you
