After a conversation over many mojitos i received a text this morning from a great friend of mine. We have known each other for 35 years. We have walked the mountain range of life together. We've been there for each other in the dark valleys and the euphoric summits. Our mutual experiences of the sex, drugs and rock and roll of our existence have a certain mythology surrounding them.
His text said, "I thought you'd appreciate this link to an article reviewing the best mattresses for people who sleep on their side." The best fucking mattresses FFS.I appreciate it more than I ever expected.

When you hate Discord.
- What's Discord?lemmy_k

- Frasier: Audrey, you borrowed the dress, you tore it. As an old Greek haberdasher once said: "Euripedes, Eumenides._niko
- As Fax said, the early series are just gold. Tip-top writing.
Also, the sketch with Niles trying to press his trousers is beautiful physical comedy.Continuity - applies to all series. Friends best seasons are 2-3-4drgs
- Hmm. Maybe friends is the exception that proves the ruleFax_Benson
- Yes! You made me feel young again ;-)SimonFFM
