Facebooking up to human nature.

September 12, 2007 by

Despite the fact that currently my friends rate me as highly on…. being generous, talkative (!), creative, artistic, a good listener, easy to live with, likely to succeed, having dinner with, better friend, kind, funny, nice smelling, organised and useful (some of which make me wonder who this person you know is!)… i have never once got a vote for being the better mother, being happy, being adventurous or having decent manners.

Naturally, i’m ignoring all the good things and praying i’ve only ever been up against Alison in the mothering stakes while Chris was voting. 😉

AND, i have you know, i AM GOING ON A PLANE!!!!!!

    Glad you smell nice, I’ve always thought that was kinda important. Last time I saw you (in the middle of a very wet field) I wasn’t over confident about my own body odour so wouldn’t have got close enough to notice yours, lol.

    lol, I don’t think I’ve ever had the ‘better mother’ question. Don’t worry, if Anna ever gets it she’ll click you.

    Well, apparently I’m the most useful and loyal one, although it did worry me somewhat that Kris thinks I’m the best singer – poor girl, obviously doesn’t get out much 😉

    Of course it is scientifically correct.

    I have 100 per cent votes on:

    More punctual
    Rather sleep with
    Rather date
    Taste in music
    Organized
    Sexier
    Naturally talented

    I have 0 per cent votes on:

    Nicer
    Kinder
    More talkative
    More outgoing
    More well-mannered

    Seems true enough to me 😉

    Certainly seems about right. I always vote for preferring to sleep with you Chris, mainly because it always compares you to either my future brother in law or my brother – and that’s just a bit wrong 😉 Well, or occasionally Tim, who looks like my dad, so that’s wrong too 😆

    ‘Well, or occasionally Tim, who looks like my dad, so that’s wrong too’

    Possibly the funniest thing I’ve read on the interweb in the last six months 🙂

    Shall I do some stats to show you the relative risk of being killed on a flight compared with in a car. They are quite different.

    lol, NO!

    I’ve made my peace with getting on a plane – mostly they involve avoiding thinking about it until i get to the airport 😆

    You do know getting in a car is significantly *more* risky don’t you?

  11. site admin says

    I do. Since when have i been considered a logical rational person though? I’m not worried abouyt dying in a plane crash, i’m worried about the intervening period of time after a hijack while i wait for someone to crash me into something 🙂

    Oooh – who are you in Facebook (under your real name or Bead or Play Merrily?) I’m under Ninny Noodle Noo (didn’t fancy putting my real name 😉
