A couple of Rich's problems stem from him being quite averse to risk, y'see..

I doubt Rich will be offended by this; I'm sure he'll agree.

I'm probably the same: risk-averse.

I know it's a troll, but it's still rather rich coming from someone who hasn't taken a single risk in his entire life... from someone that's still to scared of his parents bollocking him that he won't let a taxi stop outside his house at night in case the door shutting wakes them up.

It's for the neighbourhood. It's more considerate IMO to get out where there are fewer/no houses than on a street where there are lots, and walk an extra hundred yards.

Isn't Rich a biochemist? They have jobs here at a super duper biotech firm, making lab substances for DNA decomposition or something. Hiring good people all the time.

The salary would be like 1/4 of UK's min. wage though

But a beer in a pub is like 0.8-1 quid and you can rent an apartmnent for less than 50 quid/month.

And we have plenty good looking women (as opposed to UK), some are actually desperate for men (in Lithuanian language studies at Vilnius Uni, mostly )

What else do you need?

Somewhere where English is spoken?

In your case that'd be "posting on internet forums".

Last time I checked there are as many people at the bottom end of Kingsway or on the near part of my street as there are where your house is. Don't even try to justify yourself Stew.

Or should I tell them about how you're so bone idle that you scrawl "please clean this Mum" in dust on your stereo in your room... or how you just leave your dinner plates in your room for your mother to pick up because you're too lazy to even take them downstairs... or how you've never had a job and rely on your parents for money?

This is great. Let's hear more!

[*End Is Forever*]

Have I told you all how he thought it was really funny to impersonate a girl someone really liked (by using a double underscore on an e-mail) and practically broke the guy's heart by making him think she really liked him, and then genuinely wondered why that same person then refused to give him back the £10 that Stew had let him borrow?

Or how he thinks that practical jokes are great (see above) but sulks for a month when any are played on him... for example, when someone put a Christmas tree on his car roof?

Or how he sulked for a week because I refused to turn down my walkman in an Eccles College computer room, and refused to close the curtains in an Economics lesson...? I remember a thread here at Apolyton appearing in the midst of the sulking, I believe he called it "when your friends take you for granted".

[Buck Birdseed]

Yes. You have told me.

[*End Is Forever*]

I wasn't talking to you. And it was a rhetorical question anyway. So there.

[MikeH]

All that's true? And you were friends with him because...?
