Don't Wanna Be Jerked Around Anymore

I had a chuckle when I saw these two sorry chaps over on the Vectis site. Of all the problems that can befall a beautiful relationship the item description came up with a wholly new one, 'Strings badly tangled otherwise good!'. Can anyone come up with a decent and especially humorous title for this post? Hee hee.

PS. Reader's title chosen - one of Toad's many - it made me laugh out loud! Thanks to Wote too for getting into the spirit of it! They were all great. Thanks!

Was Brains just stringing Parker along? Would they truly tie the knot? Find out in next week's episode of "Rescue" ...

(to the tune of "Neighbours")
"Rescue ...
Everybody needs a Rescue
Helping save one another
They can find the perfect way"

OK, I know that wasn't what you asked for ... but I couldn't resist. (grins)

"Aren't we all really just puppets, pulled this way and that by circumstance and emotion; toys of the gods; players in a serial not of our own authorship; dolls dangled before the cruelty of an empty universe?"

OK, yes, that's a philosophical whinge, not a title ^_~
