NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH HAPPY SHINGLES DAY

ONLY SINGLE PEOPLE ALLOWED ITT

boiling DUMPLINGS! in rice cooker, getting drunk. happy holidays.

Not much news around in Scotland today I see

Daniel, from Newington, has received a football shirt from his favourite team, Hibernian, complete with the number 11.

Poor wee sowel

I'm going to celebrate by eating something un-dinner-like for dinner and slinking around the house in a warm sweater and wool socks, drinking beer and medicating my tooth ache. Yaaaay!

I am only going to consume food in the shape of a stick today

Can you get me some stick-shaped Percocet because this codeine, it does nothing.

what's the max dose of your codeine? how much APAP per pill? can you take more than the recommended?

I think we did this on the what's happenin' thread last night, I believe they're Tylenol-3 generics? I was hoping for warm and fuzzy and off my head but no such feeling occurred.

i'm gonna celebrate by getting drunk before noon.

i have 13 minutes in which to do this.

well there's no reason why you just couldn't take more than recommended, unless the acetaminophen content exceeds the daily recommended dose. xp (lol waiting for k3v to come smack me down)

I would be careful though - liver failure is no good!

Oh I'm accessorizing my codeine habit with an endless stream of Advil gel-caps, on the advice of a pharmacist who said they will slowly damage different parts of my body so at least they're not cumulative relative to each other.

happy rememberance day!

ONLY SINGLE PEOPLE ALLOWED ITT

In spite of appearcnces, I am not multiple people.

Happy singles day! I have crushes on 3 boys at the moment. The potential for hurt is thus magnified by 3. What's happy about it, again?

it is an affirmation of one's independence and refusal to be bound

throw yr independent hands up at me

i was just thinking about independence actually
i value it a lot

Can't wait for couples' day on 22/22/22!

things go totally wild in 33

I kind of want to be bound, but no one wants to bind me. I am a bad single.

all the girls i have crushes on are married. so there's that.

except one, that very much enjoys just being friends.
hooray for friends.

wuddup everyone! singlse are THE BEST. lame-o couples are probably asleep right now.

I changed my plans and am having a friend over to eat DUMPLINGS! and drink wine. I can do that at the last minute, if I want to, because I am single and don't have to ask anyone or work around their life schedule. Happy singlse day!

i will be playing Catan with my single friends!

(single - pothead - friends)

I never heard of Singles day but it's a better tradition than Black day, which is when all the single people in Korea eat black bean sauce w/noodles to honor the blackness of their hearts.

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Day)

their hearts are black because they kill people with fans

fans owned by couples are harmless, though

all the single people in Korea eat black bean sauce w/noodles to honor the blackness of their hearts.

This sounds fantastic!

I just tidied my entire room, including shoes, clothes, re-organizing closet, moving things around, new bedding, etc, so I can host a girl friend and be house-proud for an evening. It's awesome. I think I'll open a bottle of wine now.

I am drinking a beer, I had a gyro wrap earlier (stick shaped!), tis a good singles day

I'm at home with my mom, drinking a bottle of wine and watching an episode of Parenthood. This thread needs more singles. Lauren Graham should be an inspiration to us all: she spent some years in the wilderness and then snagged Peter Krause.

OMG I totally misread what dayo said as "I had a gyno wrap earlier (stick shaped!)"

The bedroom has become the latest target in a campaign to make “happiness” keep up with unbridled economic growth in the southern Chinese province of Guangdong, with a senior local official pledging to improve the sex lives of singletons.

“There will not be a happy Guangdong without local residents having happy sex lives,” the state-run China Daily quoted Zhang Feng, deputy secretary-general of the Guangdong provincial government, as saying on the eve of national Singles Day on Friday (so designated because the date is 11/11/11).

man I wish the US gov was looking out for me as guangdong's gov is!
