Just the other day Marcus was told that he looked bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. They thought he’d had some sort of surgery to make him look like one of the anime characters he was so fond of watching all the time. In fact, they were surprised to even see him out and about as he was usually glued to a screen watching the latest adult cartoons from around the world.
Marcus would have loved surgery but sadly he didn’t have the cash for it. What he did have money for though was a mystery baggie from Dangerous Dave down the pub. He’d only popped in for a pint on Monday when they opened back up but had been up for two days now and was still somehow looking fresh. What’s the moral I hear you ask? Well, that’s for me to know and you to find out.
Strabisums (or cross eyed and care free to you and me)
Little did I know when I started writing this post that there were so many different terms for having a squint. Call it boss eyed, wall eyed or cross eyed but it’s proper name is Strabismus. And this girl is a sufferer. But rather than get nervous and hide under her duvet whilst studiously avoiding your gaze all day she’s gone the opposite route of flaunting it and emphasising it by painting two big crosses over her eyes so she truly is cross eyed. That’s the spirit my dear. To hell with ’em all…
Cheers
