I need cash

Postby HenryHoudini » May 15th, '08, 22:38



Does anyone want to give me 100 dollars?
It's for a good cause. Headphones that my dad foolishly lent me that were broken in my pocket.

Oh dear god I'm scared.

These things happen

I remember the times when I was a nipper and it was never as bad as I thought it would be when I had to own up to something.

Honesty is really the best policy.

put your hand up on this mate and offer to do the dishes for the next two weeks! I've kept this philospohy for my working life as well. It's amazing how disarming it can be when someone is coming to b****k you and say "yup. I got it wrong"

And you're out of work again ID? Hope you manage the keep the bills sorted, good luck finding something new

Yeah, throw yourself in front of a car, then ring him from the hospital and tell him that once they've stopped the internal bleeding you'll be OK (...probably), but there's some bad news about the headphones... :oops:

I'll just make this crystal clear: that was a joke. Do not do that. Don't want your Mum phoning up Jeremy Vine to talk about the sinister website-based cult that led you to suicide :shock:

It's too late. I didn't read the second part.

I'm in the hospital, and I'd just like to say good bye...

Kidding. I'm not that stupid.

Tell him you was trying out a new trick to make headphones vanish, but would you believe it the last page of the book was missing. Now you dont know how to get them back. I'm sure he will understand.

Tell him that you tripped up and keyed his car?

Then tell him you are joking but you damaged his headphones (he will be so full of relief he may even buy you a PS3 for your troubles ;))

Okay apparently I can get these fixed for cheap. So I'm taking them to Radio Shack today to see what I can do about them...
