izzywhizzyletsgetbusy · 27/08/2011 01:45

Unfuckingbelievable - so it ain't just you, Mum.

YABU Yossarian. This is not a fight club!

YossarianLives · 27/08/2011 11:00

Grumpla I think your iPhone selected the correct answer first time around Grin

KurriKurri · 27/08/2011 11:03

Oh no no no, - that's just wrong.

ElectricSoftParade · 27/08/2011 11:10

Well, I would Grin

lovecat · 27/08/2011 11:20

YABVU

And sick

And twisted

And just plain weird

Amis?? Seriously? Even if you could ignore the sexism and general hideousness of the man, you'd need to bring a bag...Envy

Mumtabulous · 27/08/2011 11:52

Hahaha! So it's not just me! I didn't think opinions would be quite so polarised!! literally laughing out loud at your reaction lovecat. And I can assure you I was not pissed in the slightest when I posted last night, albeit after the hour of midnight ;-)
I'm up for the fight Yossarian! You know what, I think one of the main reasons for the attraction is the fact that he is the complete opposite of my newly-chucked XP :-D

Cammelia · 27/08/2011 11:54

I've read all his books - does that count Grin

Mumtabulous · 27/08/2011 11:57

Well it depends...as XP would have said, "How did that make you feel" lol

OP posts:
YossarianLives · 27/08/2011 12:01

Oh ok...I guess you can have him then, being single and all! I'll live my dream vicariously through you Grin

Mumtabulous · 27/08/2011 12:16

Lol, I'll let you know how it goes Yossarian!

Not U but very odd.

Mumtabulous · 27/08/2011 12:18

Well it's not like I'm deadly serious reeling!

OP posts:
DontGoCurly · 27/08/2011 12:55

Googled him. YABU.

izzywhizzyletsgetbusy · 27/08/2011 14:17

You chucked a charismatic, devastatingly handsome, genuinely talented, self-effacing author Mum? Shock

Did you dump him because he hadn't won any critical acclaim?

pointydog · 27/08/2011 14:28

I've got a soft spot for AMis. I quite like him. Don't fancy him. Too many teeth troubles.

Mumtabulous · 27/08/2011 14:39

Haha, not that I agree with you of course, but you are hilarious izzy!
I've never really noticed the teeth, pointy. But I guess he doesn't smile that often...

OP posts:
pointydog · 27/08/2011 14:43

Oh his teeth look good. But he has written at length about his crumbling knackered teeth. I think he had the lot of them hoiked out ages ago and got faslsies.
