  1. Ooh - did you ever get that Legion of Doom CD?
  2. Dude - I really don't have that large an issue with it. You're practically steering me into conflict with this. Just consider including.
  3. Well Villan and Gaggle have secret, cube, rez and ell for 4 of their last 5 games. Villan has me and gaggle has dyson - these will be their hardest remaining games. I'd need both of these dudes to lose/draw more than they win, and it just doesn't seem that likely. But even so, if I manage a full 9 pts I'd be impressively high up the table. But that's a lot of wishful thinking! There are no coasting games in this league anymore. I think the 'new blood' coming in next season will struggle for sure, but not die that easy, and i think the middle league will really step up with the challenge of whoever goes down this year - plus Oddy's new team means there'll be a lot of guys gunning for his scalp. All very interesting - so long as we can keep the lower league open. Maybe having managerless teams is better than having only two leagues?
  4. - Cliques/groups/whatever are natural, and I 'nothing' them. I was pointing out that I could be viewed as being cliquey sometimes, and it's not that that I have a problem with. I have a problem with simply not understanding the point of a post. As a mod I'm supposed to mop up threads to make sure they're accessable to all, so it's often confounding when affronted with reams of stuff that could be relayed on the 'public' message page thing that we have on our profiles now. Yes, it's hilarious that so many words are wasted on such a base and trivial element of the virtual world, but we all have our dents and scars. I still believe that it's better to point the SHIT out. I prefer it when people correct my spelling or call me out on something I've said because it improves me. You're not stellar yet. We do deal, that's why it's typically me who outbursts about this once a month and not anyone else. I dig at a lot of people about a lot of things. Yes, this all came from one word, but that's my glitchy twitch fix and you and others have to sit and deal with that, too. I understand that. There's just no point trying to be poignant or succinct if you then have to explain what you meant. I just figured that in a forum you want to have your voice heard by the largest number of people, which typically means you have to adapt and utilise a register that reaches out beyond just the people you know in real life. Really, though, I just like to write long posts and use fun words. You guys are my yong.
  5. haha - I was just considering the title push. If I win all my 4 games I'd be on 29pts. That would be the lowest amount the winning side has ever had, so I doubt it'll go that well. Realistically I ought to aim for 7pts. I think that's enough for survival. I'm expecting a good change report this year, too. What are the league bonuses?
  6. That's totally true and not stupid at all.
  7. My original point; he used the word stoic wrong. Contributing to that, now; ... If I have no idea what you, chair, or anyone is trying to say, your opinion or emotion you're trying to convey, then it defeats the purpose of a forum. That is what I pick up on. Not your clique. (we all have cliques. I'm in this so-called 'sheffield massive' that nobody cares about, remember.)
  8. Ahoy thar, maties! You can sit atop your moral high-ground all you like, but I'm in the skies, partying with the clouds, laughing at the shackles on your wings that adhere to the gravity of it all. Fuck profit, man. for £5.73 I sell myself for an hour, and during that hour I earn my company nigh-hundreds of pounds. My soul is owed. Owed!
  9. You were wrong because stoics don't squirm. That's it. I'd pick up on anyone using the wrong word like that. The clique refrence stuff is just smoke monsters to me. TO THE ATMOSPHERE! I DETECT A LAVA! That's the irony right there. Does anyone see it, or what? (Hint: cliquey references make it seem more like a conversation between two people [than a...forum])
  10. My wages cover rent/bills for the month, so for a month's food and booze, which is perfectly fine However I owe about £450 rent, so I will probably give maybe £50 to that, then £100 for the month is viable. Work and uni cut down on my goings outs, so that's fair enough! Been sorting out jugglesock today. Got 9 sessions booked at the union, so just need the freshers emails to notify them, then BLAM we're a-juggling again. Old mate's visiting sheff today, but is rubbish at organising, so I'm just gonna grab a mate, go to a pub for a bit until he gets in touch with some form of a plan.
  11. I rock. Boo ya. My team is averaging 8/9 skill. Wishing I'd not been so scared at the start of the season and pushed for more than a draw. Got ANOTHER manager of the round, got the best defense in teh league and nearly the best goal diff too. BUT I'm not out of the relegation battle by a fair old way. Big game against villan on friday... gulp.
  12. I don't give a shit about references that people pass off without citation. Using the words of others is weak. I just pointed you out as being wrong but, oh!, it's a reference so it's ok? References are interesting when both parties involved get it. Stop being so damn cliquey. I'm not a morning person, sorry. BUT I GUESS I'M NOT A STOIC PERSON EITHER.
  13. ... That's totally not what a stoic is...
  14. Went to work 30 mins late, worked 30 mins extra, went to job centre and got promised 150 quidish, went to hospital and got new ear moulds pressed, then promised priority for the rest of my hearing shit. Went to pub with Dan Dare and some of his course mates, who are all probably up their own arses - but I don't know as I didn't talk to them. Instead I drank a cider that smelt like egg. Changed it for a new one. I dunno. Got drunk. Met train conductors. Stuff like that. GOod day. Feel weird. Htaseasetasldktnasdf.
  15. sounds awesome to me.
  16. I've changed my tactics and formation for my next game twice already. If I wake up in time, I'll probably change them again. The decision to either stick for a draw or go all-out and LOSE BIG TIME is a tough one... I know my boys have played well recently but there's a lot of FEAR at the moment... I've generally performed well against 64thers, so I really need to look at the fixtures and calculate a few things. The fact that gaggle NEVER changes his tactics confounds me...
  17. Got archibald coid leaving - 36 years old is understandable. A key player in my midfield but totally understandable. Shouldn't have anyone leaving again for a good few seasons now.
  18. Sooner than that...
  19. You're missing out on teh scope of story telling if you can't stomach anything more than bitesize snackery.
  20. Fuck's sake, you two.
  21. Just got round to watching this. I think that yes, it has cottoned on to the suspense-drama schtick that we've seen in Lost and Heroes, but it's an age old formula that is perfectly competent as an entertainment medium. Yes, the episode struggled to really grip beyond the gimmick of "zomg FUTUUR!" but I think the show will be capable of entwining us with the general whodunnit element as it grows, rather than simply ".. so will it be as it is seen?" (because honestly it will be, duh). The dude with the star tattoos and the dude in the baseball stadium will surely be key focuses for a while. Beyond that I guess is simply; if it was a man-made situation then why do it, and if not then why did some people not black out? Personally I think the dude at the baseball game was just at the game to ensure he would be seen by camera. He wasn't wearing team colours or anything. I felt the 4400 vibe after watching it, too, and that show managed to go beyond the initial zomg situation. The FBI dude clearly hadn't solved the matter at hand, so once we get to april 30th that'll still be a focus, as well as this shady secret bunch of Dudes behind it. Future seasons? If this is a man-made power then maybe other instances, or maybe a more controlled version of it (perhaps it was an experiment gone wrong -- meant to be focused on a few individuals rather than the world?), so we'll have, like, Secret Agents Minority Report/Timecop styleee.... who knows. Just rambles.
  22. I was gonna ask hot girl out today, but didn't get a chance to talk to her. And now I've settled back into the bizarre method of ignoring her, because I can't hack thinking I might be attractive in any quantity whatsoever. A depressing day, for several stupid reasons. So I'm going to give myself a hangover tomorrow as punishment. Not only do I have a 9.30-2.30 shift but I gotta go to job centre, and the hospital, and phone a bunch of people and things and shit. And yeah. Just generally feel puny and overlooked. Best-friendless and unwanted. A lot of it is down to my lack of hearing aids at the moment. I basically can't overhear anyone's conversations, can't interject, can't retort without asking them to repeat what they said three times. Basically I'm stripped of my wit and bereft of compassion. Underpayed, overworked, broke, unshaven, hungry and alone, and no way out for another month. This fucking sucks. To the hangover! *cheers*
  23. Yeah I found the new episode distinctly uninspiring. Clark leaving those 'calling cards' everywhere was irritating, and I think generally the focus was off CK and split too much between big Z, Loui-lou, &c. But the premise for the season is brimming with hope, and I found it refreshing (in a... dull way, I suppose) that they didn't go mega-sooper over-the-top with the season opener. Restraint is a good quality for a show to have. But I think I would've liked the opener to be a sorta Batman-Begins/House-S06E01/2 style 'what he did in the interim' instead of just having CK spouting all this "I WARE DA SIMBLE EEVREEEE DAAIIIIII!!!" nonsense. Felt weak and forced. But as I say, I think the season as a whole is promising. So long as they keep lana the fuck away. Please.
