[Crackpot]

what does masturbation have to do with this?

[Gob]

One of the finest love songs ever...

I've got your picture of me and you
You wrote "I love you" I wrote "me too"
I sit there staring and there's nothing else to do
Oh it's in color
Your hair is brown
Your eyes are hazel
And soft as clouds
I often kiss you when there's no one else around

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of you all 'round myself
I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You've got me turning up and turning down
I'm turning in I'm turning 'round

I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of them all 'round myself
I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You've got me turning up I'm turning down
I'm turning in I'm turning 'round

I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women
No fun, no sin, no you, no wonder it's dark
Everyone around me is a total stranger
Everyone avoids me like a cyclone Ranger
Everyone...

That's why I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

I seem to recall hearing a theory a while back, that that song was about masturbation.....

According to this, "turning Japanese" referred to a guy squinting when he got to the point of orgasm while whacking off....

My mom always said it would make you go blind.

Hen's just been told she has a whole week off at Xmas,without using any of her holiday allowance.

[kristina]

Hey, I get seven days off at Christmas! Of course they're unpaid, but...

[oldr_n_wsr]

Gob, you and Hen should just list the days you actually do go to work, it's probably fewer than the days/weeks/months you guys are on holiday.

[Gob]

Well Hen informs me she has six weeks holiday* allowance left, plus six MONTHS of personal leave she can take a full pay (normally used for sick days ect) She also has four months "long service" leave at her disposal.

I'm really hard done by I only have five weeks leave* left, and only three months personal leave. (I don't get long service leave for another year )

I should go on strike!



*Until February 2011
