Why are you sad, sister dear?

[Ebantu the Kararehe]

Her birb died the day before my birthday (which also happens to be the day I finally failed to postpone my marriage any further).

[shisteer of nothing much]

Oh, that explains it.

Her birb died the day before my birthday (which also happens to be the day I finally failed to postpone my marriage any further).

DO NOT SPEEK OF THE POOR WHITE BIRB! (also, we only call Hoiho a birb.)

[Ebantu the Kararehe]

Okay then.

[lass of something much]

thank you..

[Scott McLamok]

your welcome!

[Booklover]

What can I say except you're welcome? Multiple things, actually. Anytime, that's alright, you'd do the same for me, it's nothing. Blue purple pigs fly. I mean, you could say that, if you wanted. Pretty much anything.

[shisteer of nothing much]

Next time somebeast says thank you, I'm definitely going to say 'Blue pigs fly.'

[Booklover]

Well, the chance of someone saying thank you is almost the same as the chance of blue pigs flying.

[shisteer of nothing much]

No, not really. Kiwis are generally quite polite.

[Booklover]

Unlike a lot of people in Britain, then. We're good at apologising when it's not our fault, but most people aren't so good at saying thank you.

[lass of something much]

that's not good...

[Booklover]

Do you think the world is getting worse or better, overall?

[shisteer of nothing much]

Worse. Young ones now days have no respect for their elders!
