The only results one gets searching for "Lady Vesuvius" are thankfully harmless:

"Sorrento is a small village on the west coast of Italy, north to the ruins of Pompeii, south to the dark, rat-infested alleys of Naples, just balancing on the seams of Lady Vesuvius luscious green skirt."

"Eighth, I give and bequeathe to Lady Vesuvius a sunbonnet, a palace of clouds and the heart she once hurled up to me."


Extract from Shi Ming's LJ: "If there are no men existing in the world, then there wouldn't be any wars.

Which is so true.

Think about it. Take Troy for example. Menelaus sought the help of Agammemnon when his wife was stolen from him. A thousand ships were launched, effectively, to salvage a man's pride. Agammemnon, on the other hand, agreed to help his brother with his pride issue only so that he could conquer Troy and add it to the collection of nation-states under his almighty rule. The Trojan War thus also took place because of another man's desire for glory. Similarly, Archilles chose to lead a short but glorious life so that he would be remembered and revered for a thousand years.

And both pride and glory come under one main heading. Ego.

Tsk tsk. So this is how dangerous a man's ego can be."

Of course, I couldn't take this lying down. My repartee:

"Actually the Trojan war was the fault of women. If Eris had not started everything by tossing her golden Apple of Discord at Peleus and Thetis' wedding banquet, nothing would have happened. Spite

If Aphrodite, Hera and Athena had not fought over the apple, desiring to be proclaimed as the fairest, they wouldn't have had to offer their various gifts in an attempt to bribe Paris. Vanity

And if Helen had not left Sparta with Paris, there would have been no Trojan War. Fickleness

Spite, vanity and fickleness are all some of women's many gender defects.

So there you have it - women and their myriad flaws caused the Trojan war. Tsk tsk."


Tong on my fantasy of, when I grow long hair, jerking my head and hitting the people around me:

"at this length, the only person u hit when u jerk ur head is urself. usually in the eye"

Gah.

Blame it on the rom-coms - Romantic movies ruin your love life, warns year 12 student Steven Schubert - "The fact is, these films are stopping decent, normal, hardworking Aussie blokes from ever impressing any girl. Most females won't even look at a bloke unless he's willing to undergo severe public humiliation in the usual romantic comedy style. Unless a bloke is willing to run around a grandstand while singing a suitably romantic love song and evading arrest, it seems that girls just aren't interested."
