Comments on Who'd've Thunk It?

See, this is your problem.

You think just because someone is a great author and brave in certain circumstances, they can't be a wanker and annoying.

Or they blow up at little things in a red-faced rage like McCain does.

FYI, if it's British, "cupboard" equals "closet".

Some cupboards in the UK are big enough to put a small office in, or a bedroom.

@10... What? If they are that big, they surely won't be referred to as 'cupboards' then, would they?

Am I being daft here?
