oh THAT desktop
Trying to talk an elderly woman through the impossibly complicated process of downloading an excel file for her ECDL course. To save the hassle of getting her to look for files on her hard drive, I'd asked her to download it to her desktop for easy access.
After 20 minutes of to-ing and fro-ing we finally manage to get the download complete, so I ask her the perfectly reasonable question 'What's on your desktop now?'
'Well, a cup of tea and a muffin - but I can't see what that's got to do with anything'

» Inappropriate crushes
Heeeyy you guuuys.
Seeing as somebody’s already admitted to fancying Cheetara and stolen my ‘thunder’ (oh no) I’ll fill you in on my mate Ash’s embarrassing crush confession.
He’d been seeing his girlfriend for about 6 months and they were having one of their frequent confession sessions where they admitted their deepest, darkest secrets to one another.
The subject of childhood crushes comes up and Ash decides to fess up about the ‘funny feelings’ that Mikey from the Goonies (aka Sean Astin/chubby hobbit from lotr) used to give him when he watched the Spielberg masterpiece in the 80s.
Little did he know that his other half had to tell just one person (who just happened to be the biggest blabbermouth in town) and by the following night he was trying to work out why the whole pub kept dropping random Goonies quotes into conversation.
He is still doing his level best to live it down.
