- Climbing word count
- A numb bum (or butt for our American friends)
And then, before I could finish my list, I got an email from my friend Jane (*waves*) that made me chuckle. Most of us use those emoticon things - I quite like the ones made up of punctuation but I don't like animated yellow faces: I think they're a bit creepy. Here's a bit of her email:
'ARSE-ICONS?'
(_!_) a regular arse
(__!__) a fat arse (or perhaps, a writer’s arse?)
(!) a tight arse
(_*_) a sore arse
{_!_} a swishy arse
(_x_) kiss my arse
(_E=mc2_) a smart arse
(_$_) Money coming out of his arse
(_?_) Dumb arse
I felt compelled to find one for numb arse, which is what I was complaining of... So how about:
(..!..) Instant glory for whoever can leave a better one in my comments.
UPDATE: I gather you can't do them in the comments box, but if you can be arsed (sorry) to send me one to 4pmteatime at gmail dot com I'll post them up tomorrow. Not just numb bum but any bum!
