"Should" or "are"?

Stop trying to make things simple.

I'm sure she'll be fine. On her own. On her birthday. Her first birthday after you got married.

Completely fine.

Perhaps the best thing to do would be for everyone to convince her to come to the meet?

Everyone other than you, obv.

We could go Dutch.

That means selling your tushy for money and drugs right?

Why don't you do that then?

Dimrill · **Posted:** Mon Jan 11, 2010 16:11

She doesn't visit here because she's silly or something and she's still angry at me for loaning you my xbox.

DavPaz · **Joined:** 27th Jun, 2008 **Posts:** 38535

Please come to the meet, Mrs Andy Bear. The sight of a married man constantly checking his phone with a guilty look in his eyes is bad for the drinking arm

Also, the more the merrier and I'm sure you're lovely!

myp · **Posted:** Mon Jan 11, 2010 16:22

To be fair, if I were her I'd want to spend my birthday with my friends, not a bunch of internet nerds.

Oh, and my husband, too, but he's fucking off to visit some nerds instead. *sniff*

To be sure.

DavPaz · **Joined:** 27th Jun, 2008 **Posts:** 38535

Okay, we'll try something else...

Dear Curio,

Why is your wife making you leave her alone on her birthday?

I'm just saying....

nickachu · **Posted:** Mon Jan 11, 2010 16:34

Tell the wife you won't play xbox for a week if she comes?

As a prelude to the Beex meet, Curio has pointed out the nearby presence of the (reputedly very good) Michael Caines at the Abode restaurant. Tasting menu is here, for £99 per person, including wine (or £65 without the wine).

There is also a vegetarian tasting menu.

Would anyone like to go to this on the Friday night before the Manchester meet? I'll be there, as will (dum dum dum) Danielle "fanny stupid" sistaflapjack, who is also (dum dum dum) coming to the Manchester meet. Curio would like to come but doesn't want to be a third wheel. Clearly, another Beexer should man up and take an eight course dinner for the team.

(And yes, for the purposes of the "how many Beex meets can we arrange before myp's incredible distant Manchester one happens": this counts.)

WTF?? My BOYFRIEND is calling me Fanny Stupid??
I dunno if I will be baking you a pie OR picking up your ass at the airport..

Dimrill · **Posted:** Tue Jan 12, 2010 4:19

It's not as bad as calling you Vagina Spacker which I definately heard him do so the other day.

Hi Fanny Stupid Sistaflapjack! Nice to know your real and not just a glitch in his matrix. Although... he is a Doctor of Computations and he did borrow Weird Science not so long ago...

*prepares Turing test*

You have no idea how long I have already spent explaining Beex injokes. Turns out, viewed through fresh eyes, this place is complicated.

I find it helpful to have a recording of our posts three seconds ahead of reality, if that's of any use to her. She might have to spend several hours in a box, though.

You should've said "I'm not explaining a dozen injokes" and waited for the laughter

That reminds me, I gave my spare one to my brother at Christmas and he looked very confused. Especially since I didn't explain the significance.

I don't envy trying to explain Red Dwarf to an unitiated, educated adult, in 2009. It sounds almost as impossible as the time I had to explain to my Nan what the warehouse party I had been to was all about, and why I enjoyed it, without mentioning anything illegal, whilst driving.

I once spent New Years Eve in an underground car park in Manchester, so I know your pain.

Especially an American. No offence Sista Flapjack, it's just that I recently tried to initiate some USian friends to this jewel of British comedy scifi by sitting down with them to watch season 1, episode 1. And then episode 2. Apparently it doesn't really translate well. Or age well.

Then we noticed 'Friends' was on TV watched that instead, with much relief.
