Oh yeah sorry, my paranoia got the better of me (laughing face).

I was thinking of writing a book on the evils of double entendre, innuendo etc.; it would be long and thick but with a humorous vein running through it.

Face it, you've cocked up.

How? I mean, if everyone's blind then nobody can see it.

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean that they *aren't* out to get you.
Is that the first ironic use of an emoji?
Go on Dale use an emoji. I dare you.

I'm waiting for a single emoji which expresses impotent fury, mild misanthropy, utter despair, intolerable agony and a fondness for kittens.
Well I just had a quick look and although we can fit some your emotions in, maybe even three on one face at a push (straight face/rolling eyes emoji). I can't find anything that covers all five sides (and let's face it we could easily say more) of your personality.
It reminds me a bit of trying to do a Rubix Cube. I could only ever get three sides of that.
(Unless I used a screwdriver on it and swapped the bits about)

Perhaps some kind of rotary-emoji would be in order. It wouldn't have to display the same emotion all the time, but could rotate on demand.

I also need an emoji for when I'm feeling less optimistic.
Why didn't you peel off the coloured stickers?
Speaking of Rubik's cubes, I had one which didn't have a white face, but two yellow faces instead, making it rather more difficult to solve. Were these common?
It didn't bother me at the time but, with hindsight, perhaps I should have involved trading standards.

Last night I rescued a drowning centipede, luckily I didn't need to do CPR, then this morning I had to save a snail that had got into difficulties. Invertebrates must dislike this heat as much as I do.
You are an evil man, DaleCooper.

I assume you don't like centipedes. This one was only a cute, itsy-bitsy little baby about an inch (25.4mm) long and it smiled at me nicely as I was drying it with some bog roll. Is that the action of an evil man?
Having lived in the tropics for many years, *all* centipedes are evil by association.
(Ours grow up to 10 inches and have a *very* painful sting - to the point that a bite to the leg is enough to incapacitate a grown person for a day or two).
That could be good naming strategy for railways in the area. The Barnstaple branch could become the Tikka line and serve curries on board.
My Cube doesn't have coloured stickers.
So, in the absence of a screwdriver, I just had to learn to solve it the normal way.

Now try Rubik's Tesseract, you might need a hyperdriver for that one.
That would go well with the Advocaat line - although perhaps not together on a bumpy pacer ride !
Oh no. That could be a queezy combination. Much like the curry and four pints of Cobra I've just had in The Light of India.
I thought I'd see if it would help with the hot weather. Fight fire with fire you know? Not sure if it was a good idea.
Four pints? You're letting the side down, fella.
We were only in there for an hour. I could've had more but I'm glad that I didn't this morning.
