Comments Mil,

I read your page on a regular basis and yes, I belong to your elite mailing list.

And it has only just occurred to me that it is your girlfriend, Margret, who has the raw end of the deal.

1) The entire world knows her as the psychotic girlfriend from Mil's TMGAIHAA page. I mean, how do you deal with having a reputation like that?

2) Her boyfriend dyes his hair fire engine red. Honestly, need I say more?

Oh but yes- because there IS more. There's point 3:

3) Hey boyfriend wears Banana Spilts t-shirts. And here is where I might also refer to the instance in your book where "Pel" (I mean honestly- how stupid do you think we are?) buys a puffy jacket with pockets. Or when in Mailing List #19, upon being invited to Downing Street (Downing Street- no less!) you share the following with us:

"I also have some trousers that have been designated as 'best' by virtue of being almost completely free of oil stains from my bike chain."

And then let's not forget:

"The real problem is whether the 'smart' option is my T-shirt with Bingo from the Banana Splits on the front (which I bought second-hand from an Oxfam shop), or my T-shirt that says, 'I spend all day bitching about you on IRC channels you can't see' (which Dave Green gave me, out of pity)."

Send Margret my sympathy.

But like I said, I could probably beat you up. This being established, I demand that you send me twenty dollars. I was up so late laughing at your website, my stepdad beat me to death.

I'd like to thank this site's creator for helping me out of a tight spot.

My best friend is travelling in the Bahamas right now. She chose precisely the wrong thing to say to her boyfriend (here at home) before her calling card cut out. Now he's highly perturbed & called me to rant & rave about her (frequently saying 'you' to me when I know he meant 'her.'). I tolerated this and comforted him as feebly as I could, but he sent me an instant messege today trying to revive the subject. I sent him a link to this website - lo & behold he said it made him feel better!

Oh thank you for creating this site & intercepting/deflecting that conversation.

Comments Fah. Should have known this was no place for the shy or reticent, the attempt leaves one looking like a twit. (Which, I suppose, raises a whole new question in my life. sigh.)

So, the last post was a perfectly hilarious description of the photos of near death by traffic which we brought back from Ireland. Only Mil gets to read them, because only Mil has been busy writing things that make me laugh. The rest of you haven't really been trying, have you? No indeed.

I also posed the question: Driving in Ireland being notorious,** how did Margret manage to get all the way to west Ireland and back and only hit ONE car? I'm hoping there's more story here, waiting to be told.

** Notorious, meaning the official, government roadsigns at the border of each county read: Welcome to Donegal County (Or Kerry, etc.) 199 deaths on the roads in the past 4 years. Stop the Carnage!
They keep the numbers updated, too. It's all very reassuring. Especially to an American driver. Especially with a roundabout coming up. Really.

Comments No, Mil! Say it isn't so! You aren't giving up "Things", are you? Don't do that to us! Do you know how much we'll miss you? Do you know how much actual WORK we will have to do, instead of reading? Think of the big picture here. So many of us depend on you for your updates into the Zany World Of Mil and Margaret. We will shrivel up without them. Don't do it, Mil. Fight the temptation to move on to bigger, more money-inducing labors. Let us not go into the shadow of no-Mil, the humorless void that will be if you cease to update.
Or was whoever-it-was wrong, when they said that they'd heard you were giving this up? There is that ray of hope, that they were misinformed. We shall cling to that like a starfish to a rock. Don't give up, Mil. Save "Things". We adore you.
PS: Don't worry, I am not an entirely rabid fan, I just write that way. I am very unlikely to show up on your doorstep to demand that you update your page. Unless of course I hear you are having this mysterious pot-noodle for dinner.

Comments In regards to your latest entry, the Just War Theory was not as you assert the work of St Augustine of Hippo, but rather the work of the considerably later theologian Thomas Aquinas. And yes, I am very young, just a fledgling 18 year old, so if I know this then there's no excuse for you to make such errors when you reach so many people. It undermines your reputation as an intelligent and informed satirist. Normally I would not take issue with such triffling mistakes because I, well, I like your work - both your web page and your first novel I have read repeatedly and with much enjoyment. However, I am in no mood to be lenient with you you heartless fiend, for I have learned to my horror, my deep and lasting disgust, that you are abandonning the 'Things' after this month. I realise you are beginning to get a reputation as a successful novelist and columnist, both of which are time-consuming and more finacially beneficient than your pro bono work on the 'Things', but really I find this to be selling out to all that is evil and verging on a recantation of your political views by implication. You are remiss sir. I ask you on behalf of all of us, the many-headed huddled masses hanging on the lips of our glorious leader, not to dash our hopes against the rocks. Be the one constant, honest rock in this world we can cling to. Tell us more of charmingly crazy German ladies. I make this a petition to Mil asking him to continue updating 'Things'. All you agree, please add a comment, saying simply 'Save Things!', perhaps with any other messages you have added.

Comments So I've noticed short shocking-red hair in some photos and a mullet in others -- I wonder which is more recent (I hope the red hair, but don't want that to sound too insulting if it's the mullet). Just purchased and am halfway through TMGAIHAA -- the whole robbery scene had me laughing out loud so that my husband had me read it to him. If any of you out there haven't read it yet, it's actually pretty good considering that it is fiction and unrelated to that page on this site -- though the characters do feel very familiar, of course. Mr. Millington has drawn from life experiences, I'm sure. Well done!

Comments Tsk. Really Mil. You've been with Margret for how long now? You have seen what kind of havoc she can inflict on technology just by batting her eyelashes and you haven't developed a cellular alarm that sounds whenever your devices are in mortal peril? Shameful. Simply shameful.

Enlighten me, what are Cockles exactly?

Comments Given the inherent lunacy of Margret, and the overwhelming insanity of all in County Kerry, I think we all got off lightly. Wrecked car, nuked digital camera, pah. The four horsemen of the apocylpse would have been my prediction.

If you're wondering if I actually hit keys randomly or actually thought what to type, here's the answer.

I thought to type it. What's more disturbing is that site belongs to NASA. Does Margret work for NASA?

Anyhow I'll leave you with this thought. Intellectuals might actually get it.

Comments Jolly good show! However, finished reading TMGAIHAA with the bemused expression of an 18-year-old who does not yet have the life experience to appreciate a good tiff with my beloved - i still try to take pleasure in the simple pleasures of a relationship.....unreasonable jealousy, mocking from mates, and occasionally sex. But i look forward to embarking on a relationship like yours Mil, if only so i'll get to see pictures of my girlfriend naked.

Comments I love the site. It has provided me with hours of hilarity in between pretending to work. Apparently unlike the other teenage girls who have found this site, I thought your relationship with Margaret sounded adorable and quite fun. I mean, how could it not be if she doesn't mind you making fun of her on the internet? I'm only a little jealous. Anyway, Thanks for all the laughter!

Comments Since I am unable to spam you with e-mails I will "sign" the guestbook instead. Excellently funny stuff. I particularly like it when you make fun of Americans as I (like so many of us) have the typical reaction of imagining that you are insulting people other than myself. I find life is a lot more fun if I live in a constant state of obliviousness (which is probably not a word).
I have written some stuff which I, up to this moment, considered funny. You are now my arch-nemesis.

Seriously, though, your page had me in tears (laughing, if that's not clear). I have told just about everyone I know the shaving cream mistaken for butter anecdote (as it's short enough for my feeble American mind to remember and one of the funniest things I've ever heard). I will buy your book as soon as our economy gets better, I promise.

Comments Does anybody who is not American ever sign this guestook?

And do they 'get' the site? Ever? Or anything that's not accompanied by a laugh-track and lots of SFX.

Question for Mil, is the Mullet to hide your - according to you - huge ears, or do you think it'll come back?

(the Mullet, not the ears, unless you have them pinned.)

Let's hope not.

Yes, I read the FAQ and I don't remember there being any explanation about the Mullet. Or do I have egg on my face?

One leetle theeng to add to the US vs Canadian debate which crops up just about everywhere there is an internet connection. In my very limited experience, having lived in several different European countries and one in the bottom part of Africa; meeting many specemins (specimins?) from both countries: Canadians I've met tend to be boring and vapid, if not intelligent and quite proud of themselves. Americans often end up confirming every stereotype you've subconcioulsy absorbed after interacting with them. That said, I've liked every American and Canadian I've ever met - altho I've also seen some cringingly awful posts in many guestbooks, including this one, by members of both countries and have felt genuinely sorry for anybody who has the misfortune of meeting them, and utterly grateful that I never will.

Last thing re US and Canadians - Canadians get WAY more upset when you ask them if they are from the US. Americans take it as a compliment. What's with that? It's like Kiwis and Aussies, or South Africans and Zimbos. I kinda know how the Canadians feel when somebody asks me if I'm from Zimbabwe. I know that I'm not better than a Zimbo, but I just can't help thinking that I am.

Everything Mil says about the French is, sadly, true. They are truly awful, backstabbing bits of female reproductive organ; BUT not as bad as the Yee Haws in the US who refuse to service your car because it's French. If you guys only knew how utterly unconcerned (unaware of) the French are about the anti-French thing in the US, then you'd make them the Founder Members of the Axis of Evil. They don't give a toss, I promise you, give it up.

I look forward to more vitriol from Mil (and an explanation about the Mullet. Do you have some hideous disfigurment on your neck you don't want anybbody to see? There's no need to make us suffer for fashion, really.)

What I'm not looking forward to is more entries from knuckleheads telling Mil to "beat the crap out of the lousy bitch" or variations of the theme (one guy said he would tow her down the street tied to the back of his car. Nice. I didn't know they gave Texan Death Row inmates internet access. "Land of the Free", indeed.) or well-meaning but ultimately dim-witted advice on relationships, life, cat diseases, etc.

Hope there's enough space for all this crap, or I'll have been doing the equivalent or ranting into an answering machinee looong after the tape's run out.

Comments Things are so slow and quiet here, what with everybody off having homosexual flings and such, that I have been meandering through the internet thingie and found this. I'm saving the URL so my wife (that's what we call our long-term girlfriends that we have kids with here) can have the proof that her species is congenitally prone to madness. I feel your pain, being a similarly well-rounded, sane, clear thinking and reasonably behaving person in a relationship with a crazy person.
