Nope for me. Just stacks of magazines that I never get around to reading if not for bathroom time.
LOL! Eeeew!

Ok, so here's the story: For many years, I used the name "knullabulla" as my online name. I was living in Sweden and feeling oh-so-confident with my Swedish language skills, went into a bakery and ordered a cinnamon bun. What I intended to say was "kanelbulle" (kuh nell boo leh) but it came out "kuh noo luh boo luh"... which roughly translates to "f--k bun". It wasn't until I was halfway back to my dorm that I realized why the kid at the counter was so confused. I guess he thought it might be his lucky day?

Fast forward to about a year ago and some humorless twit complains to the moderators of the message board that I was spending most of my spare time on that Swedes everywhere were horribly offended and hurt (um, really? cause my 80-year-old grandmother-in-law fell over laughing when I told her what happened). So, I had to change it and "stickybuns" was the only thing that I could think of that still fit with the original story.
