testje: Episode V - The Testjes Strike Back

[Laura M]

no.
it means to steal.

 

[Tomer]

see my question made sense

 

[Laura M]

i've been eating like a pig lately
my good diet has disappeared
must start again soon

 

[Tomer]

food

 

[Popmartijn]

Indeed, food

My dinner tonight was quite nice. Nothing spectacular, but nice. Maybe I'll try the recipe again, maybe it needs some adjustments.

 

[Laura M]

my friend hasnt phoned me about tomorrow yet.

he is slack when it comes to making plans

 

[DaveC]

ohh I'm so slovenly today...didn't shower, got up at 1:30, wearing old gym shorts and a t-shirt.

 

[fah]

I'm back from IKEA hell

 

[Laura M]

I am listening to my mum talking and talking and repeating herself and putting mummy in every sentence.

 

[Salome]

I'm back from IKEA hell

was it fun?











boom


tish

.

 

[Popmartijn]

I'm back from IKEA hell

Was it a national holiday?
A special sale?
The start of the new collection?
Extra opening hours?

*knows when to avoid IKEA*

 

[Laura M]

maybe the mini-fahs had a big fight and annoyed Mother Fah in IKEA

 

[Salome]

fah!!!!

if you feel the need to talk about it we're here!

well, in a minute or so because I first have to laugh at people in fym

but then we're all here for you



ja !!

 

[fah]

was it fun?

boom


tish

.

Oh, where do I start?

They open at 10
We got there at 10:10 and the kids room was already full.
We go eat our $1 dollar breakfasts but the croissants were lacking in everyway
We go back to the kids room and there is now a 25 minute wait to get in.
I tell the mini fahs that we can't wait 25 minutes
The mini fahs are disappointed
We browse/shop through the store
I pickup the things on my list and the few 'extras.
I've probably got about $150 worth of merchandise in my cart
We go to pay
There are 4 cashiers open with about 15 customers in each line.
If we had stayed I am estimating we would have had to wait at least 30 minutes to pay.
I abandon my cart and vow to write snarky letter.

Thanks - I feel better now

And no -

it is not a national holiday
There we no special sales
No new stuff (that I saw)



Just had to throw in the extra rant

 

[Salome]

well and there's eykiw


but I'll do my best

 

[Laura M]

Snarky letters always make you feel better

 

[Salome]

I abandon my cart and vow to write snarky letter.

I want to write snarky letters for a living

 

[fah]

maybe the mini-fahs had a big fight and annoyed Mother Fah in IKEA

No, that came later during the drive home when they started throwing Smarties around the van.

NEVER EVER WASTE CANDY

That's just wrong

*hasn't seen it this crowded at IKEA here*

BTW, Sal, what's there to laugh in FYM?

*goes checking*

 

[Popmartijn]

NEVER EVER WASTE CANDY

That's just wrong

*has the sudden need to go eat some chocolate*

 

[Laura M]

Everything is funny in FYM

 

[fah]

I'm feeling better now.

The mini fahs are downstairs screaming at each other

<shuts doors and hopes they don't find me>

 

[Popmartijn]

*current song playing Queen - The Invisible Man*

How appropriate for Fah.

 

[fah]

And let me tell you about the chocolate I bought....

Just when we are leaving IKEA Mr fah phoned and asked if I could pickup a new toner cartridge for the printer. I say yes and head off to Office Depot.

What a delightful store

Staff who were available to help their customers and short quick lineups.

I bought the mini fahs: Aero Caramel bar, Aero bar and Smarties (which were later turned into weapons in the van).

 

[Laura M]

mmm chocolate

 

[Popmartijn]

 

[fah]

I did not have a chocolate bar.

I showed amazing restraint.

I had a diet pepsi

 

[Salome]

diet pepsi?

I hope you added some scotch

 

[fah]

diet pepsi?

I hope you added some scotch

Sadly, I have not acquired a taste for Scotch.

I recognize it's a flaw

 

[Laura M]

i ate 2 chocolate things today
well 2 rice krispie bars with chocolate on top
and some jelly babies.
