If it makes anyone feel better, I am looking for work in accounting after finishing my Advanced Diploma, and I am only slightly scary as most can attest to my carefully written manipulation posts.

It is people in economics you have to be careful of, they are always looking for an angle.


What angle is that? Not the angle of the dangle, i hope...

Hey Beavis, he said "dangle" huh huh...

Yes it was. She was also in Breakfast at Tiffany's, Sabrina, Roman Holiday, and several others.

I fully agree with the last sentence as well.

That's unfortunate.
Were you born like that, or did you have some kind of trauma that left your right eye blind?
Also, different colored eyes... Is it because you have heterochromia or is it due to your right eye iris being atrophied?

No, it wasn't the site that drove him away, he's to blame. Falconhood is just butthurt because he was called out on ridiculous and easily disprovable claims he made.
