Oh no T! What are we going to talk about for the next 40 days then?
I’m gonna go the opposite direction of you. For lent, I’m giving up all self-deprecating comments and humor. For the next 40 days, EYE am the absolute BEST. At everything!
Taxis. I will save at least 10000NT a month. I am not going to give it to poor people, though. Except in the following circumstances; if it’s after midnight so no MRT, if late for work.
Sugar.
Being mean to Hartley at work and throwing stuff at him, even if he is being really annoying because I was mean to him the other day when he had toothache.
I will answer the 'phone all the time, even if I can’t be arsed to speak to the caller, except my boss.
Please bear witness to these pledges.
I have broken all of them except number 3. And that’s only because I haven’t seen him yet.
Taxis, I just forgot. Sugar; it was medicinal. The 'phone; I just can’t answer it after 10 for various mentalist reasons.[/b][/i]
Taxis.

So what are you going to use for transport then? You know you can’t go “public”. You once said, I think it was in a joint statement with TpeBob, that “busses are for the poor” or something.

Oh, you can count on that.
I took the MRT home from dinner. It was rubbish. Loads of children on it. And everything was a bit sticky. I will have to get some gloves, I think, so I don’t get crabs or something.
[quote=“Jaboney”][quote=“tash”]My friends laughed at me and think I won’t be able to do it. Especially the “center of attention part”.
Well, I think I will! :raspberry:[/quote]
You have GOT to be joking.

You see, it’s a classic example of a catch-22. By insisting that her friends NOT talk about her, we’ll still be talking about her. I can’t wait for this conversation:
Me: …so Tash, what about you?
Her: Sorry, I gave up talking about myself for Lent.
Me: Well, what are we supposed to talk about?
Her: I don’t know; anything that’s not about me.
Me: But how can we have a conversation with you, and not talk about you at all?
Her: I don’t know, but I can’t talk about myself.
Me: So you’re not going to answer any questions about yourself?
Her: That’s right. I’m on a “vanity fast”.
Me: OK. Aren’t we talking about you right now, though?
Her: !!!
