Title: FAO: Everybody Post by: flammableBen on Friday, September 12, 2008, 01:49:13 Do you remember the old days? When the little title below your name was something that someone had assigned you?
I miss that power. At the moment you can set your own title in your profile settings. I'd set it to something you'd like to think represents yourself, because I'm planning to take the ability to set your own title away from you. You might want to think about it. Title: Re: FAO: Everybody Post by: flammableBen on Friday, September 12, 2008, 01:58:32 Sorry if that's a bit cryptic. You've got until tomorrow (ish) to set your own title. After that I'm taking over the title power.

I tried to play guitar, but it's got far too many strings, I play bass. It's got four strings, I only use two, Never worked out what the others do, I play bass. Still don't know quite why I'm here, Never mind, I'll get another beer, I play bass. Can't find an actual link to the song, but the bloke playing bass along to it does really well...until the stupidly difficult bit. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Sw60jzxbNKM Title: Re: FAO: Everybody Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Monday, September 15, 2008, 10:20:22 I only dreamed that I would find, A loving heart and open mind, To see the real me, And I hoped that you would be the one... A chance to talk, a chance to grow, I'll take the risk, let my feelings flow, I've found the words, I need to say... SUDDENLY YOU'RE SEEING ME, JUST THE WAY I AM! SUDDENLY YOU'RE HEARING ME, SO I'M TALKING JUST FAST AS I CAN, TO YOU! SUDDENLY, EVERY PART OF ME, NEEDS TO KNOW EVERY PART OF YOU! And now I know that you are mine, You bring me love and peace of mind. You see the real me, And I know that you're the key... SUDDENLY YOU'RE SEEING ME, JUST THE WAY I AM! SUDDENLY YOU'RE HEARING ME, SO I'M TALKING JUST FAST AS I CAN, TO YOU! SUDDENLY, EVERY PART OF ME, NEEDS TO KNOW EVERY PART OF YOU! (insert TEF instrumental conducted by flammableBen here followed by a key change ala Westlife) SUDDENLY YOU'RE SEEING ME, JUST THE WAY I AM! SUDDENLY YOU'RE HEARING ME, SO I'M TALKING JUST FAST AS I CAN, TO YOU! SUDDENLY, OPENLY, YOU'RE ALL I WANT! ALL I NEED YOU TO BE! SUDDENLY EVERY PART OF ME, NEEDS TO KNOW EVERY PART OF YOU! Just you...it's you...

Some little Stockportonian said it to me today - the ultimate irony of course being that I DID go to Specsavers. Anyway, I'd like it commemorated :D
