Tonight I was out for my friends birthday and ended up back at her parents' house. They have an African Grey parrot which is awesome as ****. Sing "Always look on the bright side of life" at it and it replies with the whistling bit. They also had a pond with koi, sturgeon and catfish!
How do they afford all of that? Definitely sounds awesome as **** though.

EDIT: Just saw parents house. Ignore me.

I was sitting there feeding and stroking the fish for a good half hour.

Which fish did you stroke?! And how big was the sturgeon? I saw one of those on an episode of River Monsters, I'm assuming the ones you encountered were not the 8ft (or whatever they were) beasts like they were on River Monsters!
 
Fish kinda gross me out so I certainly wouldn't be stroking them. I'd probably spend a lot of time staring at them, then trying to teach the parrot to swear.
 
FLT, that is a thing of beauty. It made me smile, it made me want to cry, and best of all, the talk of tits gave me a semi. Great post.

The koi were the friendly ones. They wanted to say hello. Sturgeon just wanted food. Catfish hid. I wouldn't want to touch a catfish anyway as they sting you.

When you say goodbye to it it goes "see ya later" in a cockney accent.

Now that is something I never knew! I know they don't have teeth per se, just sandpaper like gum things, but that sounds crazy, how do they sting?!

Barbs on their fins. They're pretty nasty. Look for the Bear Grylls bit where he catches one.

Ah never knew that, interesting! Barbs on fins, or any part of a fish, I hate the idea of. I'll have a look for the Bear Grylls video.

Speaking of gross animals, I read this on Reddit earlier about how cockroaches make group decisions and are pretty social, which is simultaneously cool, scary and icky.

The gregarious cockroach, sounds like it could be a play or the seediest pub imaginable. I'm glad we don't have those huge ones here that you get abroad, at least I hope we don't! Cheers for that, it also triggered something in my mind about a novel I have wanted to read for a while but had completely forgotten about called The Revolt of the Cockroach People.
 
I thought she was doing anal in that mission...

She was wasn't she, then catches you filming and you speed away with the paparazzi guy on the back of his bike? Was something like that anyway, she ends up crashing and you need to get a shot of her in handcuffs if I remember correctly.

Been late getting on today mate and see that congratulations are in order for getting your degree, well done! Plenty more time for GTA now?!
 
Trying to remember the last time I was hanging out with this girl and she didn't take half her clothes off. I can't. I deserve some sort of a medal for behaving myself.

Don't start me off on Bear Grylls, or I'll go off on one of my rare but quite satisfying rants. I've already had one this week, and one is enough. I'm trying to reduce to monthly.

I don't think there is a medal but here, have a :emoticon-0171-star:

Whilst it must be frustrating, surely this is a great test of ones resolve!

Something to do with him staying in hotels and not building rafts himself etc?

Thanks. Frustrating isn't the half of it. Also here's a new one, which was not as hard to resist: tonight I was offered a blowjob in exchange for a portion of chips.
