...have a sausage roll? - never
...lose your temper? - become slightly irritated --this morning on the way to work --lousy drivers. Blow a gasket --It's been a while.
...listen to the Rolling Stones? Probably some time last year
...smoke something? - high school
...give someone a present? - Got my kids little gifts for making the honor role a few weeks ago -- Christmas is coming, though.

...draw something? God knows. Last time I attempted to draw a picture (other than plans for projects at home, or doodling while on the phone), probably about 1961 when I gave up art classes for good
...throw up? Norovirus, 2013
...have a sausage roll? Been a vegetarian since late 2015, so before then. I did have one of Gregg's vegan sausage rolls this year, thought it was all right
...lose your temper? As in get uncontrollably angry? Can't recall specifics, but some time last century.
...listen to the Rolling Stones? Apart from on a forum, can't recall specifics, but some time last century.
...smoke something? Well, I haven't got round to it yet today, so last night
...laugh your socks off? Helpless with laughter? It's been a long time. Maybe not as long as getting uncontrollably angry, maybe even this century, but can't recall specifically the last time

...draw something?
It's not super frequent. I've had the penmanship of an arthritic doctor for ages now, but..occasionally I'll need to draw a stage plot for a venue (also been a while). You would struggle to recognize the results as "reasonably legible".
...throw up?
Thank Christ, it's been a while. Kids have been out of diapers for ages now. A lot of it is being less likely to overindulge in anything (food, drugs, spirits). My best vomit story comes from about 15 years ago (approx.) - I was out every night, working in bars, fortified with no shortage of ciggies, booze, drugs, presumably on "day three" or summat, and one of my best friends (right in the middle of all this) offers me an orange Tic Tac, which - within SECONDS - sent me running for the fire escape to projectile hurl like a young Linda Blair.
...have a sausage roll?
God that sounds great. Honestly, the closest thing we have hear is the Sausage McMuffin from McDonald's (obviously not the same thing, but...similar basic components). In other words, FAR too long.
...lose your temper?
It hasn't even been a full day. I'm working on it.
...listen to the Rolling Stones?
I put on Let it Bleed a few months back one morning. And I'll occasionally roll something on YouTube or leave a song playing on the radio, but...I'm fairly sated. I last saw them a year and a half ago, so...I wouldn't say I'm actively avoiding them. I can play those songs in my head pretty easily, so..they are there.
...smoke something?
I haven't really fucked with weed since I was a teenager. It stopped working, and I'm not stubborn. Gave up ciggies a good 6+ years ago, BUT...a couple times a year, I might be drinking with friends and say "Gimme one of those things!". They ALWAYS taste foul.
...give someone a present?
I'm always giving the wife, kids, close friends litle gifts. (Right now, of course, I'm ordering, buying, stockpiling Xmas gifts). I gave a few friends some unexpected LPs a couple of weeks back, and I gave one of the kids a surprise gift last week. The era of Dropbox/WeTransfer/GoogleDrive/etc. also means that it's pretty easy to lay something on someone who may live many miles away.
...laugh your socks off?
Daily, thank God. Even in troughs of depression, someone will say something, or a thought will come to mind, or...a movie, or...family living really helps with this.

...draw something? - if there's a pen and paper in front of me I'll draw something given a minute or two. And I mess around with Windows Paint (or whatever the fucking gimmicky next-to-fucking-useless bullshit waste-of-time halfwit fucking arsewipe cuntfuck Apple version is) often. So it's probably just been a few days. Couldn't tell you what, tho'
...throw up? - a very long time. Close to a decade, probably. And it was probably food poisoning
...have a sausage roll? - not keen on them - usually the pastry is pale and undercooked. Maybe five years ago
...lose your temper? - I'm like JSJ, most days it happens just a little bit. I rarely roar and stomp about but I got annoyed with my students this morning when they suddenly sat down about 10 seconds after I'd told them to stand up - they hadn't even started the activity
...listen to the Rolling Stones? - at least one of their songs got blasted over the last week
...smoke something? - nothing of any sort for around 15 years, I'd say
...give someone a present? - I sent a mate my old Producers DVD on Friday
...laugh your socks off? - like, legs turn to jelly and tears running down my face? sad to say it's been a long time. It probably hasn't happened this year. But I get a couple of genuine chuckles most days. I think the last one came today when watching an old bit of ITN news on YT, Alastair Burnet mewling 'is there a single heart which hasn't been touched by this beauty?' over footage of Princess Di mooning about vacantly in a crowd

...draw something?
That Elvis I drew especially for you, John.
...throw up?
last Friday night. I've been vomiting more recently...dunno if it's just smoking during the week and then switching to booze at the weekend but something isn't agreeing with me.
...have a sausage roll?
Oh God ages. I'm gonna have to get a Greggs now....I'll add it to my "Xmas food treat" list.
...lose your temper?
The lass and I had a big fight a few months back. That's the last time I lost it.
...listen to the Rolling Stones?
I listen to Jumpin Jack Flash every few months but I rarely listen to their albums. Exile would be the last one sometime during the last year.
...smoke something?
This morning
...laugh your socks off?
The lass and I watched Blazing Saddles outside in a mates tent in their garden last Saturday night and I was fair slapping my thighs. Always a treat and a tonic.

...draw something? It's been a while. I think I made an attempt at something this past summer, but probably got frustrated at my lack of ability and gave up. I should try to get back into the habit of doodling on the computer - it seems easier than pen and paper.
...throw up? I honestly can't remember, but possibly within the past five years and maybe booze related.
...have a sausage roll? I know this isn't what you're talking about, but I had a sausage on a hotdog bun for lunch this past Saturday. It was left over from the sheet-pan meal I cooked the night before.
...lose your temper? I smacked a car that nearly ran me over earlier this year, and the guy stopped and started yelling at me. I yelled back and called him a cunt and told him to learn how to drive. I was shaking with the excitement for a few minutes afterwards.
...listen to the Rolling Stones? I haven't played any of their records in a long time, but I'm sure I've listened to a clip or two here within the past few weeks.
...smoke something? I think I had a puff of something on Friday night. Not much though.
...give someone a present? October 13th - B's birthday.
...laugh your socks off? In the past day or two, watching "Big Mouth" on netflix. That show is over the top.

Big Mouth is one of the few reasons to watch Netflix.

...draw something?
A couple of months ago, a design for a book case that I have meanwhile made with the aid of some Ikea components.
...throw up?
Happens every now and then in the mornign when I have a cold. The coughing gets so bad in the morning that eventually....
From drinking not in a long time. Probably in the past century.
...have a sausage roll?
Yesterday actually. Sauerkraut with a smoked sausage on a crusty bun.
...lose your temper?
I'm happy to forget about them quickly but I don't think it has been more than one or two days ago.
A few weeks ago I had to make a right turn on my bicycle. From the left on the street I was going on, a beardy hippy guy on a racing bicycle was approaching. Formally I had to stop but I figured he was at quite some distance so he would see me in time and could either slow down or go a bit to the left as there was plenty of space.(we drive and ride on the right here). He passed me by at great speed and then suddenly pulled his brakes. Turning around he yelled that coming from the left he had priority. Before I knew I yelled back 'don't you have eyes dickhead'? Him again: 'Dickhead? DICKHEAD??? I have priority'! Meanwhile I was next to him and asked him if was mental that he could not slow down or just pass me by on the left. Disappointed in human kind he climbed back on his bicycle and moved out of sight. Then I met him again a couple of minutes later in the supermarket I was going to. I instantly regretted my unnecessary swearing, he had the walk of a person that had seldom seen any luck.
Not proud.
...listen to the Rolling Stones?
It must have been a while and certainly not a whole cd.
...smoke something?
Cigarettes daily, the other stuff must have been 5 or 6 years ago.
...give someone a present?
Last week I gave my wife a new Iphone as her old one was getting a bit of a nuisance.
...laugh your socks off?
A few weeks ago my son was over for diner and he had brought his dog. When we were at the table the dog started pusking his nose to my knee under the table. So I said to my son at the other side of the table, 'He's bumping his nose to my knee' Immediately my son came back with 'I don't think so, his face is on this side'.

...draw something? - It's been a while. Maybe last year? I'm not very good at it. I doodle little shapes often when I'm idly putting pen to paper, but that so rarely happens these days. ...throw up? - Grossest feeling. I hate it. I try to avoid it. It's been a couple years at least, for sure. ...have a sausage roll? - It was veggie, but a place near my work does a good one. Went there for sure in February (haven't been to my work location other than to quickly pick up equipment since March) but can't remember if I've picked up from them since. Maybe. ...lose your temper? - Almost daily. I'm trying to get better. Technology issues particularly get to me, but at least since I was a kid, I've never struck another person, and I'm trying to learn not to throw things or primal scream, as it scares the cats. My wife says I'm getting better. ...listen to the Rolling Stones? - Outside of the context of here or BCB (and let's throw Facebook in there too), I listened to the reissue of Goat's Head Soup on line about a week and a half ago. It's no Exile, but it sounded pretty good. ...smoke something? - It's been (slightly) more than 24 hours. That's not that unusual, but...still a Willie Nelson fan. The fact that he's almost 90 and he still indulges (and I think he even said daily) makes me think I may not have to quit for a while. But there is a lot going on that I have to "keep my head straight" for, so I indulge a whole lot less than I used to in general. ...give someone a present? - I'll buy 'little things' for my wife all the time if I see something and think she'll like it. That said, haven't been shopping much of late, so...I don't know, maybe 3-4 weeks ago? ...laugh your socks off? - Our cats are absolutely marvelous natural comedians - Roscoe particularly is laugh-out-loud funny almost constantly - he even sleeps funny - and Molly's more of a straight woman - but I usually don't have to go more than a few minutes. And to mention my wife again, we have hundreds and hundreds of 'private jokes' we've developed over the last decade-plus. Spending a lot of time around the house together, they crop up pretty consistently. We laugh a lot around here. It really helps.

...draw something? I used to really enjoy drawing and did it a lot. people who have known me a long time still ask me to draw things. I try and fail. I crumple things up a lot. I was doodling and enjoying it about a week ago but that got crumpled up too.
...throw up? about a year ago my body was telling me I needed to see a doctor. I didn't listen. I puked and figured I had food poisoning or something. I actually had a ruptured bowel!
...have a sausage roll? never! what have I been missing? I'm pretty sure I would enjoy a sausage roll since it has the word "sausage" in it.
...lose your temper? yesterday. fucking Tupperwares fell out of the fucking cabinet on my fucking head. I know it's stupid but it made me fucking mad.
...listen to the Rolling Stones? each and every goddam day! well, at LEAST once a week. I had "Aftermath" on this morning after being reminded how misogynistic they were. you know all those songs people say are lame on "Aftermath"? I LOVE those songs!!!
...smoke something? wow. smoking. I remember smoking but it's been a long, long time. I think maybe in the 80's somebody passed me something that smelled good and I had a drag. I haven't liked the smell since.
...give someone a present? last week I ordered somebody a Chromecast so they can watch their phone on their TV. they were on sale for only 20 bucks.
...laugh your socks off? we have cats so at least once a week.

..draw something?
..draw something?
Yesterday, actually! I have a plan to draw everybody pictures for Christmas and then make it into an illustrated book. Seemed like a great idea until I tried it yesterday. I have no plan B, so we'll see how it works out!
...throw up?
Last year, while pregnant after sitting in the co-pilot seat of a sea plane.
...have a sausage roll?
Right after second lockdown we went to meet friends for a picnic in a graveyard. It seemed Quaint to Buy food INDOORS, and the only thing on the way was a Greggs. I hadn't had one for ages and I thought they would be delicious. They were extremely mediocre.
...lose your temper?
Not since the last time I did night shifts...
(just to be clear, I don't shout at sick children. It's more the fragile state I'm in when I get home. The last Blow out, was when my husband bought the wrong dishes.)
...listen to the Rolling Stones?
Ive sung some songs around the house but as there's no surprise animal noise element it's not on regular rotation since baby.
...smoke something?
Never.
. ..give someone a present?
I gave my brother in law a handmade ceramic mug and a microplaner a few days ago. I also ordered a bodkin to be delivered soon.
...laugh your socks off?
It must have been a silly joke my husband made (considering how few people I've seen or spoken to this year.) in late September I laughed my all when my husband said in true shock and dismay "OH NO! WE'VE MISSED APRIL FOOLS SAY" (For some reason being 5 months late and raking this more seriously than ANYTHING, was more than I could take. But the bar has been low.

...draw something?
Maybe last week or so, Abby likes to draw with us, or at the very least we draw and she scribbles, she's still learning but she's picking it up pretty quickly
...throw up?
About 6 weeks or so ago we had a stomach bug run through the house which was 24 hours oh torture from both ends of the system
...have a sausage roll?
90 minutes ago
...lose your temper?
About 15 minutes ago, i work with some absolute deadshits.
...listen to the Rolling Stones?
Last time they came up in my Spotify playlist I guess, they're a band I dont really actively seek out to listen to.
...smoke something?
Never.
...give someone a present?
I bought my wife a pseudo tie dyed Metallica shirt for Abby to wear which she was pretty stoked about, goes with her small collection of rock shirts we get from Cotton On (the Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness one is Abby's favourite one to wear. I like it best as well)
...laugh your socks off?
Watching The Last Leg last night actually, watching Josh and Alex eat all the food absolutely drenched in alcohol for a lockdown bit, it was late but I was laughing like a drain
