    Exclamation Crazy Electric Shock!

    Fuck me!

    I just took a shower and was using my girlfriends expensive soap to keep my silky soft ski in tip-top shape when my wet hair touched my bathroom cabinet and I got a pretty strong shock from it. Now this isn't a new problem and the landlord said it'd been fixed but obviously it hasn't. When my head touched the cabinet there was a bright flash ON MY HEAD, my jaw slammed shut, my neck jerked and all the power in the house tripped. I'm just glad that I was stading o the bathmat and not the floor covered in water.

    Pretty sketchy.
    The broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying. These people know only too well how to use falsehood for the basest purposes... Adolf Hitler

    Yup. The entire metal frame and surface of my bathroom cabinet is live when it gets wet from steam.

    stuff is just stuff. your emotional health is much more important. holding raging anger in is more harmful than your faggot-assed tv that probably deserves to get its ass beat anyway.

    Yeah that's fucked your landlord should be in a lot of trouble?
    Syco- "The Empress is the latter leg of this triad, representing the physical body and the material world. From her comes all the pleasure of the senses and the abundance of life in all its forms. She is also the mother archetype, and through her we get a first glimpse of the power of love in the Tarot." I think this is all representative of awesomly large tits, no?

    Still in Spain. Spanish landlords aren't the best really. It's extremely fucked up when you trip the power and all you can see if a bright flash on top of your head.

    In other news, it's snowing today!

    Hahaha, they definitely don't go for sueing over here. Not in the culture thankfully.
