Haggis: Big shadows of shame are cast all over you for going to meadowhall and not alerting any sheffieldites! That picture dan posted is indeed rather legendary :P EEVIL: It's not a place anyone went to for the meet. It's the Frog & Parrot, most famous for appearing on The Saturday Night Project with Boyzone. Srsly.

Contrary to what Roadkill said (yes, I saw it :P) her name is, and I shit you not, the same as your current girl. I shit you not. EDIT: This post is a response to ReZ, btw.

Well I would love to see a whole new show where it was for songwriters, whom each week would write a song for an individual artist who, every saturday, would sing a whole show's worth of new songs. The audience would vote for the best song, then teh songwriter would be through to the next week. Same singer, different writers. You know it sounds good. Nice! Except anything bought before monday (today, now) doesn't get counted towards this weeks chart, let alone the xmas #1 spot. Re-download it next monday and voila, job done.

Happy Birthday, Letty! "Growing up isn't half as fun as growing up" lololo

Cheers for the heads up. You just saved me several hours of effort/time! I won't be watching TDTEST until I hear something positive, then

nami and I just finished watching it. We were most curious about the psosible meaning of a plate in teh movie. Roses have been done to death, as with the colour red, but there were three (by my count) plates - the one Lester smashes, the one with the nazi symbol and the one the mum-next-door holds tight as Ricky leaves. The plate was the most curious symbol. The plate is pretty much the most submissive object there is, entirely used as a means to an ends, yet it demands attention otherwise it will be of no use anymore. I don't know! Lester's death was, on the one hand, perhaps too early for him as he had just turned his life around, but at least he did get around to changing. Personally I think the weakest part of the movie is the part which makes Frank think Lester is gay - the 'blow job'. Bit too contrived and coincidental considering it effectively alters the rest of teh movie. I don't know. A little drunk right now. Mother-next-door interesting too. Etc tired now! Bye.

Once we have a few EPs then I'll sort it out.

DiemetriX, you constantly forget that we are a bunch of geeks who don't date multiple women in our lifetimes. Or I guess I might just be talking about me! My first girlfriend was pretty much nothing like me. She liked waking up early, she spent ages preparing to encounter the world. She was organised, tidy and had a routine. She was introverted and beautiful. But she didn't like computer games. She did not believe in subjectivity; her opinion was always right. Compromise was not an option because it meant that you had to admit you were wrong in some way. She didn't like 'deep' movies. She didn't like zombie movies. Her music taste changed with the seasons. She was fashionable. Whether someone is opposite or not, you need to be prepared for change. If you're expecting to stay precisely the same, only with a bird on your arm, then no girl is right for you. I think with 'opposites' you will both come into contact with elements of life that you had previously not thought about, not cared about or not wanted to know about. Music, clothes, movies, books, tv, people, food, places, whatever. This 'newness' can be not only refreshing for Ye Whom Hath A 'Type', but you might find out more about yourself. Fuck if I know what I want in life, let alone what I need. If you've got the women at your feet and you're up for a change then go for it. Personally I've fucked up my chances, and I'm not ready to change twho I am, so it'll be that way for a while. Be my vicarious success!

'DVD'? :P *ahem*

American Beauty is this week's film. I'm sure many of you have watched it already. nami, shorty and I should hopefully be watching this in a short while. Don't forget to read the book for January, too. p.s. I've added this link to teh first place. It's a really cheap version of Koyaanisqatsi from play.com. If you guys find a really cheap version of a movie then bunt it my way and I'll throw an earl into the mix. Even if people aren't buying the movies for this club, they may want a hard copy if they really like the movie.

well thought nightwolf! Copies saved and mailed to my next of kin. Don't worry, all I have to do this time is count the pictures. Dan if you send me your list pronto I can squeeze you in :P The list of Sorry Buggers all have a second chance to get their stuff to me, but one of these days I will seriously compose this Black List that I mention from time to time, and... ooooooh ooh oooooooh! Ooh!

You want to be my tabmeister for the day? You know how dangerous that is? :P

It's been 'that scrubs song', 'that OC song', 'that shrek song' and now 'that x-factor song'. Hell, it's been on a lot of other TV.. Source, duh-duh.. Also from Wiki I found this facebook group trying to get Buckley's version to number 1. They've got about 25,000 members so far. I hear tehre's over 50,000 people who say they'll get the nation Rickrolled instead. The x-factor single tends to sell into the hundreds of thousands... It's all about the xmas #2 these days

Right now it's £12 more to go this friday, and my ticket on monday would cost £15.20. £25.20 will be the ultimate price I pay to do the meet. I'll think on it for a few hours!

You can't fight in here, Dan. This is the War Room! Personally I love the idea of; ... But in reality all these 'cool' end-of-the-world scenarios like post-terminator, Fallout 3 or fuckin' zombies... well they're no doubt utterly depressing and slow, painful existences to experience. Unless you are actually Chuck Norris or the dude from Evil Dead, it would suck. Seriously speaking, though; capitalism isn't going to be around forever. I think we'll eventually return to more stable, sustainable societies but it is just a question of whether this happens before or after the apocalypse. Do we return to tribal lives because three quarters of teh world's population is dead, or do we choose to reduce our demand on teh earth's resources and stop wanting all the time in order to save ourselves? I do take comfort in the fact that I won't be around to see the end of humanity, as that would be a truly sucky day.

Yeah... So I'm not coming now. Turns out I'm going to be travelling home to Brighton on monday 22nd. Theoretically I could pass through with my ma-hassive suitcase for a bit, but very unlikely. Darnitall! I'm heading to the train station tomorrow. If it's just as cheap to travel this friday as it is next monday, I'll come.

Right-o. Xmas shopping must start today! A week before I go home... Only I haven't really got a clue what to get people. Going to get my dad The Wire (season 1), which is easy enough, then tehre's the rest of the family, and the odd friend here and there. BLEH. Got to book ticket home too... Realised I may not be able to go to the meet-up... whoops. Supposed to go to 'Poi in the Park' tonight, but it'll be cold, and dark, and it is miles away, so I'm probably going to bail and do some online shopping instead. ReZ - self-inflicted bodily harm is ALWAYS hilarious in slow motion.

*Whistles innocently*

Strangely enough, I found myself watching the finalé! A mate came over who is obsessed with x-factor. I thought that after she performed with beyoncé, Alexandra looked as if she'd taken several valium hits... Her rendition of Hallelujah at the end was rather cool too, because clearly she was investing a lot of emotion into it. That Owen (or however his stupid name is spelt) was unfortunate to be blasted into so much fame so quickly; the rest of his life is going to be downhill from here! Oh, and the bit near the end where alexandra, danni and wosserfacefromGirlsAloud were hugging... phwoar! Sideboob and arse all over teh place. Worth watching the entire show just for that.

What cartoons have racers in? Well I did Suggest Wacky Races :P Ooh just thought of Noddy too!

Well that's just rude! Pft :P

I run after people. They run away. Stops people doing stuff to them, stops them doing stuff to people. Been a pretty sucky role as I can't find much out about people as half the time I don't make the write-up, so I've just been selecting randomised people.

you're right! Muthafuckin' editing that.

I share that hangover, Dan. From a different source, of course! It was the "christmas extravaganza" at the union, with "six" dance floors. The music was very schitzophrenic, but well mixed - but the last hour was laaaame. I'm really getting tired of listening to spice girls, backstreet boys, 5ive, b*witched, steps and robbie williams. I hate that these are the songs that the 90's are going to be remembered for, and that any retro club in the future will only be playing these 'hits'. I will have no choice but to be hip and groovy and up/down with teh kids (whichever is in fashion at the time). Lots of flirtatious, bodacious people, a few familiar faces and a few twats from halls in the first year. Generic drunkards who seem to have recently had the epiphany that people doing different things with their lives is really, really awesome. Grown men using their buttocks for territorial purposes. Grown women who think it is attractive to dance with a pint and spill it all over themselves/their friends. But before all that, of course, was a stupidmuthafuckin' hour-long queue in the nipple-exploding cold. After the club there was a shitload of rain and a minor slip in the mud. I guess today I will be washing my clothes.
