"Open wide, you little snot..." I am listening to the Mats' "Tommy gets his tonsils out". So do you still have'em? I actually don't know so I am going to ask my mother this afternoon. By the way Paul Westerberg is too cute.

I had to get mine taken out in an EMERGENCY cos I had an abcess growing on them and it had nearly GROWN TOGETHER and sealed up my throat, URRGH GROSS. I had to be in isolation and everything. As a result of the hell that was Blackpool Vic hospital ALONE for DAYS I R vowed never to go to hospital again, even if I am puking blood.

Incidentally, who on this beeotch has puked BLOOD? I have!!! It tastes all urrgrh. Unlike regular vom which of course is yummy. Mmm, bile, num num.

you are turning into your brother

I had always wanted them out, because when I was kid there's was a tv show about a kid who got his tonsils out who got loadsa presents from his friends and relatives and he got all the ice cream he wanted. That sounded like the life!

Out of all of the illnesses I've had in my life tonsilitis would have to be the one I wouldn't get.

― Nicole, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I heard that they no longer give you ice cream when you've had your tonsils lopped off, instead they give you dry cornflakes, to rasp your throat to betterness. Is this true?

― chris, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

let's get this over with. i tee off in an hour

― cameron bain, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

they do give you ice cream and jello and puddign but your throat hurts so fucking much that it doesnt matter .

― anthonyeaston, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Not ONE of you haf replied to the puking blood qn.

― Sarah, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

That's cos we're not vampires and so do not regularly have bellies full of blood.

― RickyT, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

*bares fangs*

*puts on vamp face*

Riley in the last episode of Buffy, what a TWAT. Going to the vamp bordello to get sucked on and then staking the lovely lady. Anyways methinks vamps don't HAF bellies. But then where do the chicken wings that Spike eats go? Do vampires go to the toilet?

― Sarah, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I am now frit.

― RickyT, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Riley is a DiX0r. It had to be said.

― Nicole, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Why oh why did I mention ruddy vampires?

― RickyT, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

And not before time too.

― Jonnie, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

And as for that little sad face he pulled when Buffy wouldn't make poor wickle Wiley feel NEEDED enough when she's just discovered her mother has a BRANE tumour and just killed the most hilarious summoned up fake snake demon in the world EVAH. I've got to say Glory, that spell was a total dud.

But DO they go to the toilet? I am reading this FAQ but it haf not answered my U&K qn yet.

D'you think there are badger vampires or vampire badgers?

― Nicole, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

GAAAAH!

― RickyT, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

And would they only bite fellow badgers, or would they go after people too?

― Nicole, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

So sez the FAQ:

Common animate forms assumed are: wolf, bat, rat, cat, owl, fox, weasel, raven, spider, scorpion, moth and fly.

Inanimate objects which might also be assumed are mist, orbs of light, even a ball of dust like you find under your bed [q.v. ch'ing shih].

If there can be wampir weasels surely wamp badgers are to follow. THEY ARE AMONGST US.

― Sarah, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Vampires are rubbish. What about were-badgers?

― Tom, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

That's stoopid, Tom. What would were-badgers do, growl and get furrier? Perhaps this is the true origin of "badger growling".

― Nicole, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

No. Were means man, so were badgers = man badgers ie men that turn into badgers. Surely far preferable to minky old vampires.

― RickyT, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

What is a Lycanthrope? A Theriomorph?

In this context, lycanthrope would appear to include only werewolves. However, it has come to refer to any shapeshifter, whether it be werebear, wolf, bat, panther, raven, fox, what have you. A more accurate term, and one that's being used more and more, is theriomorph; as it doesn't connote any specific animal. Both lycanthrope and theriomorph are used interchangeably, though.

― Sarah, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Is Ricky T a were-badger?

― Nicole, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Well they'd take on the brain of the wolf, innit. Although that is only one viewpoint on the whole shabang. Some might say that the lycanthrope changes form but keeps their original mind although that seems to be more comic book superheroness to me (where's Wolverine when needed eh), or just that all human instincts are repressed and therefore HOORAY! killing and forraging frenzy!!! I shall be going on a drinking version of one of those very soon num num.

― Sarah, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Roll up yr jokes about RickyT and full moons, ladies and gents! Roll up!

― Sarah, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

With regards to wot Ed said upthread, I am not turning into my brother, he pinched that 'I are' nonsense off me, and I pinched it from 'I Am Weasel'. Grrr!
But anyway, creatures of the night - surely a were-cockroach-bear, created by Hanle y, would be ACE?

― DG, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yes, Hanle y, where are those chicken bears you promised, EH?

― RickyT, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

AHA! I spy RickyT! I thought you were long-lunching this afternoon?

― DG, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Well, if you don't come back to the office at some point it's hardly a lunch is it? I am leaving in 10 minutes to go to the pub anyway. Hurrah!

― RickyT, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

There's a complicated werewolf joke Ambrose Bierce once told, but I'll spare you. *does so*

― Ned Raggett, Friday, 26 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

seven years pass...

A month after it's all over (except for the surgery bills), the story of my daughter's summer summed up by the Times.

― Hugh Manatee (WmC), Wednesday, 2 September 2009 14:48 (sixteen years ago)

The Times makes it sound like she hasn't had the surgery.

― Tracer Hand, Wednesday, 2 September 2009 14:52 (sixteen years ago)

har

― Hugh Manatee (WmC), Wednesday, 2 September 2009 15:11 (sixteen years ago)

Oh sorry - I thought that was actually your daughter in the story!

― Tracer Hand, Wednesday, 2 September 2009 15:13 (sixteen years ago)

oooh snap - I get these too

xpost - Nah, she just had tonsil stones getting worse and worse, and had a tonsillectomy a couple of weeks ago. She left behind half full bottles of the good painkillers when she went back to school though, so SCORE! I've never tried opiates before, will I enjoy them?

― Hugh Manatee (WmC), Wednesday, 2 September 2009 15:19 (sixteen years ago)

For a second I thought you were going to say she'd left behind half-full bottles of tonsil stones ew.
