how about this above your bed ?

“All the men she’s been with and now you, just you, and the barges going by, masts and hulls, the whole damned current of life flowing through you, through her, through all the guys behind you and after you, the flowers and the birds and the sun streaming in and the fragrance of it choking you, annihilating you.”

how fucking many are there!? Are you in living in some chintz warehouse or something :joy:

I have one in the kitchen, like a really small one. No idea what it says. Live together, laugh together, die alone

This is from Tropic of Cancer btw just in case anyone thinks I wrote it about @kermitwormit … Henry Miller wrote it about Anaïs Nin

Wait, what?! I’m a bit disappointed now :smiley:

my mam bought us one that said “all you need is love and a dog” that got ~lost~ when we moved house (it’s in a box upstairs and it’s not coming out)

shit that would put my performance straight out of the window.

Every wall of every bedroom covered in the winning entries and runners up from the last four years of Bas Sex in Fiction Awards, area by the kettle in the kitchen adorned with the lyrics to Parklife in a playful cursive. The bathroom appears a form of marl but on closer inspection actually bears the entire text of 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea.

“Tomorrow last chance. No lube and only one or two of johnnies left — must be near the end. Have decided it shall be natural. We shall march for the bedroom with or without our effects and die in our tracks.”

For some reason I can’t remember I did momentarily contemplate buying one of those, but then realised my housemate would keep putting “Fuck off bellend” or similar on it, so I decided against.

Actually I’ve just remembered why I was thinking of getting it; to leave him motivational messages such as “Get a fucking job” or “Do the hoovering you lazy prick”

I think these are alright!
My parents have one and they write little welcome messages when people come to visit, it’s cute.

they probably are. It was just part of the whole picture for me. There’s a lot more to it. I’ll tell you both when you cook dinner for me. Which I’m sure I’ve mentioned before :smiley:

tbf I don’t know why any of us bother having jobs when you can just put words on patterned and framed card and sell it for £££

It has said “It’s Spritz O Clock” for about 3 years as it sits on my drinks trolley and I’ve lost the letters and the plug
