    I refuse to accept the notion that Jesus loves me! I've personally met Jesus, and he said he thinks I'm a bloody bastard.

    ... oh, that's not what you were talking about.

    I never misread anything. I'm not dilesxiuixc or anything, you know!

    I read things wrong all the time because I read them too quickly. Often times in books, two lines will run together, and I have to reread one line to get the gibberish out - maybe one word from the line below will sneak in midsentence to the line above, and it makes it all gobbledegook.

    I'm not even going to say the things I've read wrong as I have a terrible mind. Let's just say, as one small and tame example, when I was tired on my chorus trip (it was 12 AM at night!) I started reading signs saying "Virgnia Banks!" as something quite different...

    there very hard to recall. especially the funnier ones.

    all i know was i misread a newspaper headline a few years ago as the "The Queen is dead" which really was "Queen visits ......(someplace)"

    Dont ask how, i dont know either

    check out- http://z10.invisionfree.com/FFCSG/index.php?act=idx

    Its only starting up, which means its not world class- but hey whats the harm in having a look. (or registering!) The only way its gonna get better is if more people join up.

    Its got FF, art, writings, riddles, general chat and GFX battles. And each of these topics we are hoping to develop to its fullest.

    Its not a catchy address either (free to run) so just save the link into your favourites for easy access

    That's what usually happens to me.
    Although Hsu gets points for using "gibberish" and "goobledegook" in the same sentence...

    I often attempt to paint things red myself. I usually miss places however, and sometimes use the wrong colour altogether.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    I have to presume I had something to do with this? xDDD

    I read things wrong all the time. The other day there was some story on the teletext about a British spy who had defected to the Soviets in the 70s or something, only I read it as 'defecating'. So did my mom. It was amusing. xDDD
