"When is a compliment not a compliment? Perhaps the following might qualify – back in 2000 Claire Swire, an employee of a large internet provider, found herself involved with a less than scrupulous lawyer. One day whilst at work he sent her a joke concerning male bodily fluid (yes, that kind). Claire immediately replied:
“I hadn’t swallowed in years but yours was yum and very good for me too! Apparently it’s a very good conditioner for your hair too…getting a funny picture in my head…”
Ego swollen, he impulsively forwarded the reply to all his friends to show off what a stallion he was in the sack. But compliment quickly turned to embarrassment when one of his friends replied stating he felt “honour bound” to forward it on further. Soon the couple became the laughing stock of the office and the internet, although in the end they both managed to escape with their jobs (just)."
"Drunk at the matinee" is a collection of candid poetry about stupid shit that we all experience from day to day.
