It's amazing who you meet in there. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=49593#post-143295 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 09:22:18 +0000 jamsieoconnor 143295@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I'm getting an advert for some firm of family lawyers. Probably not a good sign. </p> <p>Thanks for the comments. </p> <p>Gerontius - it's not really shame and embarrassment that most people feel in this situation. I think it's more of a "trying to stare straight ahead and really trying to give the impression to other members of the public that I am definitely not looking at a sex-shop window when, in fact, I am." Couldn't really fit this neatly in the sub so just went for "shame and embarrassment" instead. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=49593#post-143275 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 08:23:57 +0000 Sinnick 143275@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Good FP</p> <p>I'm getting "Single &amp; Christian" adverts. Not sure how that's derived from this sub. Apparently, you've to look at christianminge.com - sorry, my eyesight isn't as good as it was earlier - I mean christianmingle.com</p> <p>As a married atheist, they should know it's not for me. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=49593#post-143271 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 07:43:10 +0000 button 143271@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>This is brilliant, great FP. Gerontius i can't beleive you have the balls to even overtake a police car, I could never do that. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=49593#post-143261 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 06:46:41 +0000 Gerontius 143261@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Excellent work Jamsie - another gem.<br /> Love the 'overtaking plod' reference. I always feel a crushing sense of guilt and just know that -this time- I'm definitely going to get pulled over.<br /> No problems with the Ann Summer challenge though.<br /> Sometimes, being a sex pervert can work in your favour.<br /> More please. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=49593#post-143260 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 06:44:18 +0000 Perks 143260@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Yep, lovely FP </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=49593#post-143254 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 06:05:07 +0000 wallster 143254@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Nice work Jamsie.

"That was definitely one of the toughest stunts I've ever done. There was one point I thought I was going to lose it when I saw a woman looking at me strangely just after I'd taken a sneaky peek at the mannequin dressed in a sexy nurse's uniform, but I was able to hold it together, just about", he laughed. </p> <p>Greaves has made a career out of performing such emotion-defying feats. Last September, he became the first person in history to successfully negotiate airport security without feeling an overwhelming sensation of nervous guilt and a belief that he had suddenly become the world's most wanted, drug-dealing terrorist. He followed this up in March this year by managing to overtake a police car on the motorway without believing that he would be immediately pulled over, arrested and banned for life. </p> <p>Despite his incredible success and hard work, he seems to have no plans to take a break and has already announced the plans for his next stunt. "It's going to be even tougher again", he said. "I'm going to attempt to buy a packet of condoms from an attractive, young, female chemist without looking at the ground or losing the power of speech." </p>
