Confession: I'm Lovin' It

Last year, when I worked at the McDonalds on Regent and Little Portland, I would clean the tables, chairs, doors and windows with a urine solution of my own.

Everytime someone ate a french fry off the table I would sing "I'm lovin' it".

Confessed by: Now Working at Starbucks

It's Fixed This Time, I Promise!

Okay, okay... I know I said that the submission form was fixed. And it was, 75% fixed, so sorry. Well, now it is 100% fixed, I promise! I have no idea how many stories are lost in cyberspace, but trackback and you'll see that we haven't received that many new ones lately.

So, once again, if you've ever, in your life, submitted something to OHUK, do it again!
