MadamAnt · 21/01/2009 17:51

I misread the title as "mini gods" and was about to disagree vociferously.

snigger at roadtrip.

I once found a nice shirt in there for DP. When I showed it to him, his comment was "Don't buy that, because I'll look a cunt in it, like him"

[apologies to tour DH LFC ]

It is a little, err, patchy.

Hassled · 21/01/2009 18:40

I read the title as MINIGODS and had visions of miniature Mercurys or tiny Jupiters - must get out more.

piratecat · 21/01/2009 18:41

my exdh had that mingoid look. i never liked the beardy bit much tho, liked the hair tho.

Hassled · 21/01/2009 18:41

Beardy Guy is scarily reminiscent of the Beardy Guy in the 70s version of The Joy of Sex.

piratecat · 21/01/2009 18:44

rofl, i have a picture, (with clothes!!) of my ex and THAT is what he looked like when his beard got wayyyyyyyyyy too long.
