But yes, I was an accountant at one point👹🤣

It sounded awful.

Cat, I’m just glad that the very few records my and my friends attempts were back in the days of Betamax/vhs

Places would actually pay us to not show up

That’s hilarious

Try thrash metal punk lyrics going “a motherfucjer I may be, but the mother I fuck don’t belong to me...”

That sounds pretty lame

It was. And lucrative, except we mostly got paid in beer

Ah.

It was indeed pretty bloody awful. On any dimensions

My dad was in a band. Some of the songs were alright. Most were weird.

My parents had the musical ability of the Dalek Boys Choir

I wasn’t much better

I don’t get the reference

Like, just a normal church choir in ability?

I can carry a tune these days if I liquidise it first and mix it with a smoothie

? Ok.

Oh. Those weird robot things.

Good for drumming?

Oh.

Yeah. Like the squid desert warfare squad. Highly trained.

Or, “if at first you don’t succeed... parachuting is possibly the wrong pastime for you”

Lol

Just a random thing as it’s late, and I’m a bit twisted right now

During the Second World War the brits notice that the Germans and yanks have trained parachutists

So they scramble to do the same

They send s Gurkha regiment for training, and the guys are told their first jump will be from only 300m

Lol. Only 300m?

You screw up you’re dead.

Very unhappy troops. They ask for a lower insertion highs as they not sure if more than 10% will survive from 300m

It was supposed to be a tower sim with chutes, they just thought “jump out plane”

They were fine with 50% casualties from 50m but thought 90% from 300m was a bad idea

Yeah. Those numbers are insane

And that’s why you don’t tangle with these types. Not because they are good, they are just insane;)

I rather like insane people. I can relate to them

I don’t think I really can. I’m nuts in my own way, but not crazy.

I need structure and direction.

Interesting.
I have these discussions with my kids. But they are early teenagers. And 2/3 of them are certifiable nuts in different ways

I’ll send you a DM tomorrow (because I’m crawling into bed now) which might amuse

Ok.
