Do you work for Ikea?
It'll take a lot more to get me back in that godawful place. It was like how all the old american soldiers describe Vietnam.

"Stealth"! Ha! That pathetic plug was about as stealthy as a fuck up the arse. And most of us know just how stealthy THAT is.

When you're making a rubber band ball, obviously once you've got going you just need to keep wrapping them around what you've already done, but how do you start it off?

When you're making a rubber band ball, obviously once you've got going you just need to keep wrapping them around what you've already done, but how do you start it off? I've been wondering about that too. We have one, but it was started by a roaring lesbian spinster great-aunt and we inherited it off her. It wasn't in the will or anything, we just pocketted it when sorting through her stuff. I'd love to unravel it and find out, but that'd be a waste of time that could be wasted far more enjoyably on something else, and I'm scared that I wouldn't be able to rebuild the ball. So this was no help, but I'd probably stick an acorn in the middle of mine, if a scrunched up elastic band doesn't work.

How big is it? (The rubber band ball I mean?). Maybe she's hidden her fortune in it!

I made one a few years back and I think we used a bottle of tippex to start it.
There were 3 of us in the office and we used to throw it at each other, sometimes using (already) broken keyboards as bats, until one day it was hit out of an open window, into the overgrown grass outside.
We looked for it but didn't find it, although when the grass cutters came to chop it down, it broke one of their blades when they tried to mow over it, but by that time it was manky and smelly, so we just binned it.
Oh the memories of having an office job.

It's only the size of a small orange (but bigger than a satsuma!). It just sits in a draw in the kutchen these days, looking all forlorn. My parents don't give it the respect it deserves, perhaps I should set it free and make an installation out of it.

I want a kutchen. It sounds like a cool dutch place. Or like it's a variant of cwtch. Or at least that's how I imagine the word sounding.
