Guest post - At least CoD allows endless respawns
(When playing Call of Duty: Finest Hour on a PlayStation 2. Myself and my friend were on the D-Day stage, and I kept dying.)
Me - Wow. War is serious.
My friend - (Looking at me as if I were the biggest idiot ever) YOU DON'T SAY?!
(I face-palmed and walked out of the room. I can never live this down.)

M - Why wasn't it on the news then? That's a big story there.
R - Because...Jerry found them first.

Guest post - Well, it burns calories
(My flatmate eats constantly, but is the smallest person in our flat. I come home and find her eating a pint of ice cream in front of the TV)
A - How can you eat so much and stay so small? What is your secret?
B - (Without looking up) I slept with your boyfriend when you went home last week.
(I thought she was joking. She wasn't.)
