[07:17] 4IDIOTS are cut (that reminds me, I was reading a book about IQ and they actually have definitions for people with really low IQ - the technical definitions for the lowest scores are morons, idiots and I think the other was cretin or some horrible word) [07:17] ;) [07:17] * Nemi resists urge to take Ben's aop away [07:17] 6Promise not to LAUGH?

PLEASE. We've been working in 32 degrees+ heat in our office with NO air-con [07:21] gets hotter in the evenings [07:21] It's sheer hell [07:21] I wonder if it's because we haven't been spoofing these for so long, so the humour's far more fresh [07:21] Petra: yes, hence why I've been sleeping erratically [07:21] 3PLAIN is kept [07:21] cut [07:21] nice pic. yours? ;) [07:21] 6I tell everyone I had PLASTIC surgery to look like Superman.

I dunno why it's taken me so long to start spoofing superheroes [07:22] maybe it's because they've only started making good superhero movies now [07:22] For some reason I suspect that might happen to my comp unless I fix it soon. [07:22] county council here has no A/C either, mum's complaining something terrible [07:22] and a bday weekend at that [07:22] I go home feeling every evening feeling like I've been hammered repeatedly with blunt objects [07:22] There's only so many Trek/Wars jokes you can do, especially when they're not producing fresh content [07:22] Petra: yeah. FRIDAYS ROCK xD [07:22] 4PLASTIC has melted [07:22] 6Some of us don't need silly PROPS! [07:22] and with all those superhero/comic book films they do? ;) [07:22] *Looks at date* Of course!
