we be the echo

Went to the pub with Dan, Dave, Sam and Laura last night. Somehow we got to talking about serial killers.

Dave (looking closely at Sam's beard): You know, Sam, you look a bit like Peter Sutcliffe.

[Peter Sutcliffe, for those of you who don't know, was The Yorkshire Ripper.]

Sam (amidst much laughter): Oh, thanks a lot!

Laura: No he doesn't. Peter Sutcliffe was a bit more, er, rugged.

Sam (with his head in his hands): Oh my god, have you just compared me unfavourably to Peter Sutcliffe?!?
