Y'know I've never understood how people can get an utterly wrong haircut. Just yell at them when they bring the clipper's out, or are lining up for too big a slice!

Had mates over last night for a game of 1000 blank white cards which just never happened. Instead it was sailor Jerry's, beer, wine and diamond white cider. Oh dear. Anyone know who 'Mystery' is? A dude who claims he can pick up any girl. I've got two buds who have clearly been watching with a pen and paper, and last night they took Dan Dare with them to a club. Their tactics were well thought out -- girls think men are creeps if they just approach head-on, so they had a scripted idea that would at least break down any preconceptions of asshole-ness. I also beat Dan 3-1 on street fighter 4. He was quite drunk though.

I hate this thread quite a lot of the time. I like the odd track mentioned, but in general it tends to be full of tripe, 1D songs that will be forgotten by all by the time we reach the age where music starts to make sense. In other, vague, news; The_Bard; I've introduced Bloody Beetroots to a few people since you mentioned them a few weeks ago. I've got a 45m~ track of their LP (I think?) which is seriously banging in a party scenario. Very nice.

That is a brilliant piece I failed to mention1! Four-toed part of a clearly-massive statue... But just how could they explain it? Surely such a feat must've been created by earlier island settlers -- much earlier than the Lost anthology (which brings to question - can they travel to any point in time? why are these seemingly random occurances always within a so-called 'modern' era? Why not spaz out to a prehistoric moment?), and, of course, why only four toes? Two excellent points that need addressing. Just imagine if they never address the foot. Could make the entire show's legitimacy obsolete. The four toes is far more inexplicable than anything else. Good rememberance (is that even a word?) there, O_W. To be honest I've always been surprised how they don't seem to know the entire island yet. How big is it, and how long could it take to investigate it all? Not primary questions, just curious ones.

Since I live with someone I 'met' on the internet, my mum has kinda calmed down about it all, really. Plus when there's a large number of people meeting at once the risks are drastically reduced. -
yeah, sorry about the bad episode naming. I don't think it will remain a ben/widmore battle. The island was around before they ever came to any sort of 'power', and there are clearly greater forces at work that empower them that we know little about. I mean, jacob cannot simply just be jack's dad, can he? That whole ghostly element is bizarre. It's the odd little bits of Lost that I really want answers to; the skeletal couple in the first season with the alchemist stones, the 'temple' in seasons... 3-5?... The 'madness' that drove Rousseau to kill everyone (was she just crazy or were the other people with her really trying to kill her?) and, of course, more dharma initiative stuff, which I think is obviously going to be a bit more of a focus with this season, if you consider the earlier shot of faraday at the start of the season. I do really wonder if everything will be answered. It would make for a painstakingly abstract episode for a finale to wrap everything up, so I'm sure there will be elements left out of it. I doubt we'll ever find out who was on the island first, especially with the warping, nor why it never appears in the middle of a continent (it moves through time and space, remember), or why Ben had that 'list' of 'chosen' individuals that were required (or how his lieutenants knew how to compose such a list), or why the children are so important. Of course, maybe everything will be answered. I'm not really fussed about getting any answers just yet, but I will be in the final season. I have no doubt that there are still plenty of new questions to be posed!

Ah! So we just need a bogus reason? Ask The_Bard what he did for london. I don't remember his excuse, but I don't think he even told his parents he was going anywhere. They certainly didn't know he was in london, nor that he was sleeping in a room full of strangers he'd met off the internet that night. I think he just pretended to be at a mate's house! Say you and a mate are gonna go down and see a few museums/parks or something. It'll be mostly true.

Ellmeister is on his way to sheffield! He's somehow got to get from his hotel to city centre (about 4 miles) for a gig sat night, and then back again via public transport afterwards in time to make his morning coach home. Finding out sheffield bus info is seriously annoying. I don't know teh places all too well so the names of their stops are USELESS. Maps on teh site are USELESS. Kinda hoping Dan will know something. I think I have people coming over tonight. Only one person has told me they're on their way, leaving the other four mia And I haven't bought any booze and need to leave the house to get some arg! Such major, major life issues. Found out I definitely can't go to amsterdam with a busful of brighton mates thanks to three essay deadlines. I got the message after the first deadline - did uni really have to rub it in so much?
-
Aye, I can't remember the last time you could buy more than 4 anywhere. iirc even box offices are limiting how many an individual can buy. I remember when I queued up from 3am with a mate outside a box office in brighton the night before the green day tickets came out. We were 3rd/4th in line! We were buying like 6 tickets each...
-
In a Final Destination sort of way, though.

There was this one time, at band camp... OR! When Letty and I were having this, like, totally cool sleep-over in London, she told me everything. Everything. Everything. Everything. Everything. Or, y'know... not.

Not his fault he loves the fact that he thinks literally is literally a lovely word. Life is good. Not great, but good. Lead character is played by That Dude From BandofBrothers, in a sort of House-but-very-friendly kinda way. Good bit from the 2nd ep was; "So why is the universe making fun of me?" "I don't know. Probably because it's insecure?" -
Much hatred for them. But what are the ways around it? Y' could have forced-pick-up at venue, but just with a code? can be texted. Maybe send tickets out so they arrive the day before/day of a gig? Unfair if the post goes wrong. Perhaps ticket sites operate like facebook, then police and shut down offenders? Or last... some form of ID verification at purchase and venue. Kinda reminds me of train tickets. You either book waaay in advance, or suddenly if you travel on the day you have to pay a crapload more money for a ticket that they sell to you even if they know there are no seats on the train left as they've all been reserved. BAH! STUFF! BAD!

Xpert Eleven Season 8: Villan still a loser
jayseven replied to Mr_Odwin's topic in General Chit Chat
BOO YA! Take that, odders! ... I thought I'd try. Maybe for a split second - if you checked in here first - you'd've believed it. I scoured previous match reports and... well, I thought I had you figured out fairly well. I think my mistake was in ticking the pressure box - and I'm surprised that I played much better once I was down to 10 men. Theoretically if it was 10 vs 11 I would've won 2-1, amirite? 3-8 on aggregate. Not cool. Apart from that... well all the results went my way. Firmly tied to 4th place now. Realistically I could've earned maybe 2-4 more points if I had played better against gaggle in the first match and maybe taken better advantage over happenstance earlier this season - which would've still left me in 4th place so I can't complain. The relegation battle is looking very interesting; I think cube'll beat gaggle, leading moogle vs. villan to decide which of those two will join gaggle - my money is on villan to continue his good luck and survive. ReZ is 2nd place, shorty is winning again... crazy times! I think whoever ends up in 3rd is risking an extended stay in the lower league, should we not find enough replacements. tl;dr? Ah! Well done Villan! Interesting statistical analysis. Comparatively, for the current season I have more players in the top 20 for points than any other team; their scores also cumulating to more than any other team's. I have the 2nd-highest goalscorer; team-wise I have the lowest number of yellow cards in teh charts, but the joint-most reds. ... Yeah, I got nothin' spectacular. Curses. -
then organise your own one, sillyfaces!

I saw that edit, grunchie! You peni *shocked face followed by immature giggles*

Jordan has the supercock. Sorry!

Rumours of a The Never Ending Story remake, too. Goodbye, childhood!

30 Rock - Larry King In the time of economic uncertainty who else would you turn to but an comedian who once got arrested for running down the highway in his underwear shouting "I am a Jedi!!" Nice use of how his crazy ramblings affected everyone else. Plus Seyma Hayek's boobs once again got full attention. "Tracey went to highschool"~ was my favourite one :P Has anyone here watched Life? It's good. Next 'big cool thing that everyone's talking about'. Unless they already have. ZEN muthafucka. -
Nuh-uh! I watched E-@THLETES today; it was basically a film about pro gamers, and they said that that is the new 'team sport'. And I believed them. They were pretty organised too. Slumdog Millionaire I can't honestly see why anyone wouldn't like this movie. I NEARLY CRIED. I had to keep thinking of real manly stuff at the end - stuff like bear wrestling and crushing entire cans with a fist and breaking walnuts with just two fingers and opening bottles with eyesockets (I don't know which gets you the most man-points - using your own socket or someone elses) and golf and counterstrike. Loved it. ETC!

As I just said to a fellow alumnus from the university of awesome, sleep is for the weak and the comatose. So nyer. You'll have to inform me of who this person be when you read this - text me urp. If it's who I think it is then... she's not even replied with a yay or nay yet so there!

The thing about Memento is that it gets really annoying on the third watch. A second watch is really fun, once you know what's going on -- but any more viewings after that... just dull.
-
Movie-athoning currently. Watched Frost/Nixon, Benjamin Button and The Wrestler. Next is E-Athletes, then Role Model, then Slumdog Millionaire. If I'm still awake/alive! That's right, I am clearly CEO of the sheffield branch of n-e. Booo-yar! Wanna swap? "Hardly have" without the 'ever' sounds really weird.
-
I hate you both. The Wrestler Someone should've told me there were strippers in this, so I would've gone to the cinema to see it already. The violence was well violent, and the nudity was mega nude. The sad bits were really sad and the wrestling was really gay... lolikid! Good film, interesting directing, shame about the botched plastic surgery!

I don't really have anything to say. Mothers eh? Tsk.
