It's tag time

I'm a tagging virgin. No-one's ever tagged me before, but I'm going to tag a few people at the end of this.

If you don't know what tagging is (and I didn't before today) - I'll tell you. Tag someone, and they're forced to continue what you've just done. For example, the people at the bottom of this post will have to copy and paste this entry into their blog, though, of course, changing the answers for their own. If they don't do it, well, actually, nothing will happen to them. They can't be punished nor forced into it, but, hey, it's still kind of fun...

I pinched this from a fabulous Irishman called Alan. Click here to have a look at his outrageous blog.

Here goes:

Five items in my fridge:

Darling, I've already done this list! But maybe because I like you, I'll do it again. Later. Once I'm done procrastinating my final grades and sweating in my classroom.

Wasn't I supposed to be done yesterday?

*sigh*

Pray for me, darling. I'm a wreck.

Minge said...

Oops!

I'm praying.

Don't stress over it, though. Deep breaths!

Dan said...

Done and done ;)

And fingers crossed for you Michèle :))

Moncrief Speaks said...

Oh, bloody hell!

Minge said...

Moncrief!

Brian Farrey said...

I'm evil. I don't do memes. I don't get tagged.

Neener, neener, neener.

Alan Fisher said...

bitch... I hate being "tagged", or "it", as we called it at school... okay, let's get this over with then it's back to my new Ab Fab dvd's.

Alan Fisher said...

And Brian, don't be such a spoilsport... I want to read your answers!

Alan said...

It's a day of firsts Minge! I don't think I've ever been called fabulous, and I've never heard my blog been called outrageous!

Feel free to pinch anything of mine (from my blog, of course)

Dan said...

"Tagged" at my school wasn't the same game as you played - we played "Had" or "It". "Tagged" meant the 5th years cornered you, and tore the tag off your tie, usually tightening the knot (or "peanutting" it) in the process.

Did I mention I hated school!

Minge said...

Your blog is outrageous! I love it, Alan. Which part of your anatomy would you like me to pinch?

Minge said...

Dan, would you like to firebomb your school?

I know where you can get some petrol.

Minge said...

Brian is in for such a spanking! On the bare bottom! And yes, with a wet hand!

Moncrief Speaks said...

Piss off, anonymous.

Dan said...

I was never at the "firebomb" end of hating school. I did blow up the science lab once, and managed to get the Design Tech lab evacuated at one point.

Minge said...

I got rid of Mr Anonymous.

Alan Fisher said...

what's with the Mr Anonymous references?

Minge said...

Mr anonymous was a spammer. I got rid. The cunt!

Alan Fisher said...

i never get spam, unfortunately.

Minge said...

Unfortunately?
