It's no picnic being a pyknic. But it's better than being a pygmy.

Do I really need to explain?

[pericat]

You don't have to but feel free anyway

[snags]

If you want meaningful replies it might be a good idea...

BTW... what tribe of Pygmy?

[Bbbananas]

I expected an interjection from Sqad on this one. But then, I'm always expecting one of them from him....

A work colleague is in a strop cos one of the Junior Docs described her as having a "pyknic physique". She took offence at this, not unsurprisingly - doesn't sound too flattering does it? All it means is short and stocky, and that the J.D. was just showing off.
She expected me to sympathise - all I said was "It's better than him describing you as a Pygmy".
She found that even less funny. Jeezus - you have to have a sense of humour in this game.

What 'IST' do you think you were being then salla - there has to be a name for it

[Bbbananas]

Sizeist?
Pygmist?
Idiotist?
Oh, who cares. We were only joking.

[ummmm]

Right...I'm out to dinner. See you all later x

[pericat]

I like pygmist - every so often myself and a friend have a non PC day where we are allowed say what we want -it's fun.

[Androcles]

Trouble is there are too many jokists about thse days!

[Bbbananas]

I'm just one big fantasist. And I love the fun of it all. Life's too short.... (is there a pun there?!!)
