Lovesick Flashcards
I’m going to start calling them today.
In what, chronological order?
You hear those wedding bells? -Mmm-hmm.
They’re an air-raid siren, warning all the single people
that everybody else is coupling-off. It makes them feel anxious and horny.
Overall, I want a sense of giddy happiness,
I saw you in the church and you looked so overcome.
An air raid is an attack by military aircraft in which bombs are dropped. This expression is usually used by the country or group that is suffering the attack.
If you feel giddy with delight or excitement, you feel so happy or excited that you find it hard to think or act normally.
If you are overcome by a feeling or event, it is so strong or has such a strong effect that you cannot think clearly.
The night before the test I was overcome by fear and despair. [be VERB-ed]
I’m, I’m really sorry, I, I can’t find Camilla.
I can’t find her anywhere.
I made her up.
That wasn’t very nice of me,
but it’s my wedding day and I was cross with you.
Only one can be the one, if we’re being pedantic.
Yeah, he… He bought a clothes rail for the living room.
If you plumb something mysterious or difficult to understand, you succeed in understanding it.
It’s a bit of a grim venue though, you know.
And in the ladies, I heard everything smells like candyfloss.
I imagine, true to form, he’s having sex and then not leaving.
Join us. It, it’s an experiment in not living like depraved, feckless children.
So, you’re just testing the market conditions before making a play?
If you plumb something mysterious or difficult to understand, you succeed in understanding it.
A place that is grim is unattractive and depressing in appearance.
If someone or something behaves true to form, they do what is expected and is typical of them.
Hello? We’ve got crudities and dips.
You fanned-out some slices of ham.
I just want to have a clamber around nearby. See what the fuss is about.
Are you in equities? -No, I’m in debt.
And I spent most of yesterday ordering storage boxes and new cutlery.
That little shop near the Acropolis that sold figs soaked in spirits and spices? Well, I remember you eating one and saying it tasted like the whole country had been distilled into each mouthful.
The condition or quality of being crude ( but in this example )
If something fans out, or if you fan it out, it spreads out or opens out into the shape of a circle or half circle.
Equities are shares in a company that are owned by people who have a right to vote at the company’s meetings and to receive part of the company’s profits after the holders of preference shares have been paid.
Spirits are strong alcoholic drinks such as whisky and gin.
I thought blackmail would be a lot less argumentative.
I’m kidding. I got tested last year. Clean as a whistle. You can relax.
I think I put “prompt and courteous” on the little feedback card.
I trod on some glass.
Right. Chimney stack.
Um, am I part of a bevy? Or a pack?
Could you muster a basketball team between us?
So you’re saying you can’t rule out being attracted to me?
In a very, very roundabout way, and even then, not really.
Right, I’m going to remember it as, was attracted to me, but had issues.
Dylan, this has been fun,
but it’s not going to break my heart if this evening’s all that it is.
and now I’m using words like “dazzling”, which is just incredibly camp and…
If you manage not to incite racial hatred you’ll be doing better than my last ex.
You temped with us once, you count.
Okay, Samuels, that whole memory trick thing is not an endearing habit.
At the risk of sounding like a virgin…
-Which you are. -What is a Dutch mud-flap?
If you describe someone’s behaviour, performance, or style of dress as camp, you mean that it is exaggerated and amusing, often in a way that is thought to be typical of some gay men.
If someone incites people to behave in a violent or illegal way, they encourage people to behave in that way, usually by making them excited or angry.
A temp is a person who is employed by an agency that sends them to work in different offices for short periods of time, for example to replace someone who is ill or on holiday.
-Dyl, my camera’s been nicked. -What?
Wait, okay. Are you even sure it’s the right guy?
I mean, you know, stripy T-shirts are in fashion.
I don’t know what I’m supposed to have done.
Now, I vaguely remember wiping my penis on some girl’s curtain.
Let me tell you a few home truths about your friend Luke.
Could, could we maybe offer him use of the camera
on alternate weekends?
On the upside I think your brother loves me.
Don’t hang around for someone who doesn’t really sort of
urgently want to be with you.
Home truths are unpleasant facts that you learn about yourself, usually from someone else.
You just said…
bla bla
