Chaos. It draws me near

[NHJ BV]

Basically, from monday to wednesday I was on a three-day excursion to Rotterdam (for university), and on the last day everyone had to get their luggage from the first floor of the hostel where we stayed. The only access to the first floor of the building was via a rather small stairs. One girl I know remarked that it would get really crowded up there, and she was quite right when moments after half the group tried to get upstairs for their luggage while the other half already got it and was trying to make their way downstairs again. When I was somewhere in the middle of the whole mess I was reminded of Llewellyn's quote "Chaos. It draws me near"<br><br>Anyone else had situations which reminded you of O&M quotations at the time?

Earlier today, I was struggling to get a CD case open, which reminded me of Avery saying <a href='http://www.ozyandmillie.org/2000/om20000611.html' target='_blank'>"All that, and my CD <i>still</i> isn't open."</a> Those stickers are tools of the devil! <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--><br>

[Dr. Doog]

I've used that mental illness excuse before. I can't wait until I can try that out on teachers that will get annoyed <!--emo&:ph34r:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /ph34r.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='ph34r.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I got one, I recently had a messy room and was aware of the fact. I had planned to clean it one day when my Dad burstinto my room and tells me to clean, it in a hrash tone. I then find myself reflecting on Millies thought of "Parents ruin everything"

[Henohenomoheji]

Yeah, come to think of it, when hasn't that happened at one time or another?<br><br>...I think that's why it was such an effective strip.

[Muninn]

Whenever I get to use the word "attic" in conversation I say it in that eeire Llewellyn style.

[Timblatt45]

I have begun shouting: "Music is the Avacado of Death!", at random people as I drive down the road, well when it isn't snowing outside at least.

[Phieta]

Well, one of my teachers got a light-up globe as a gift and put it "on display" next to the chalkboard. I couldn't help but write "I'm with stupid" and draw a little arrow <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--><br><br>And given the fact that I'll be getting about 3.5 hours of sleep tonight and I have two huge tests tomorrow, I predict I'll be muttering "and now I'm going to collapse" when I get home.
