The Bard

They're all the wrong ones dude. Unquantifiable disaster. This calls for a marathon starting with Lupin 3. The biggest problem is that there's nobody left to pick up the mantle; Goro Miyazaki is an imbecile and I'm not sure if Takahata still works for the company, although the only good films he's done are Grave and Only Yesterday. I AM SAD .

Yo GRID 2 is half price at the moment, I remember @gaggle64 being a fan of the first one, what's the word on the sequel, I'm jonesing to try a racing sim?

It looks like butt. Unless it's a pastiche of shitty Megadrive-era anime inspired Japo trash. In which case it would be ironically butt, but butt nonetheless.

Yeah, I'm mostly tempted to freelance with my penis when I get to UCL.

Still not really sold on either of the next gen consoles. Well, obviously more sold on the PS4 than the Xbone. None of the exclusives other than, for some reason The Order: 1886, tickle me at the moment. I think I might just upgrade my PC, octo-core AMD CPUs are pretty cheap these days, and they're almost twice the clock rate of the PS4 and XBone CPUs. The only problem is the physical memory allocation. I've got 8 gigs of ram, but they converse with the CPU and GPU via PCIe, which is obviously much slower then everything being on the same die. But to be honest, it's only a matter of time til 6-8GB GDDR5 GPUs are cheaply available.

Success is a matter of perspective as you obvs know, seeing as your career aspirations consist of dicking around with paper mache. An ambition tragically thwarted by your rainman-like proficiency at punching numbers into Excel Definite quarter life crisis happening right now doe.

True. Honestly, I probably only feel that way right now because I've been hankering after some alone time for weeks

Don't get me wrong, the initial excitement of a relationship is like the best experience ever, but like most awful nerds, I sometimes feel like I have a more meaningful relationship with things rather than people. Occasionally I feel like I need the validation of another human being, being a biologically social creature, but I have a hard time dealing with someone who needs to be around me all the fucking time. I'm also too much of a pussy to break up with people without extreme provocation.

There's nothing more depressing in the world than a UK beach town.

I think I've just realised that I'm not a relationship person. There's something I really hate about being beholden to someone else's schedule when what you really want is to hole up in your cave for a whole week and do nothing but read and listen to music and indulge yourself without the intrusion of having to come up with something interesting to say to another person. I'm definitely a sex person though, so there are mitigating factors. The problem comes when you realise you're with someone pretty much entirely for who they are as a personality rather than how they strike the tuning fork in your loins.

Sounds like a snooze fest. Also, do Cartoon Network do a lot of original shows? I got the impression that they tend to source from outside, so consider whether it's a place where you'd even want to move horizontally if presented with the opportunity. Of course, being there in the first place would put you in a good position to get your ideas looked at if you're going to be working on something in your free time. It's fourteen months though. I can't imagine doing something that you kind of hate for that long.

May swing by for a bit to goad you all into drinking far more than is sensible.

It's amazing how a lot of you guys' favourite words have internal alliterated cadences and a musicality in the patterns, which is what seems to determine why you like them, rather than any semantic reasons. Which is heartening, since I think it's the same for most people. But on the other hand, it's baffling how few people have time for poetry, or seem to think it's boring, when really all it is is a heightened attention to and exploration of the musical aesthetic and flow in words. Will reply wit mah shiz in a lil biz.

Relationships are fucking weird man. /wisdom

This is a disaster. NOW WHO WILL YELL "HELLO IT'S TUUUUUEESSSSDAAAY" INTO MY EAR UPON LONELY WEDNESDAY MORNINGS?

How a great amount of people mediate their understanding of social life through the internet and online relationships, often accepting advice from people who have no real experience of the situation at hand. It makes me want to just order an array of teledildonics, plug my sensory interfaces into the web and live in a state of Wall-E esque bliss.

Having decided to sack up and start playing the game again, I'm receiving a shafting in both of my immediate goals; kill Hydra/ make it some way into Sen's Fortress. Hydra is seemingly impossible because I can't find a way to simultaneously avoid the projectiles and make it close enough to do any damage. Sen's is giving me trouble at the one cheesy trope in games that I can never get the hang of; the timing on the bladed pendulums.

Was a hair's breadth away from calling the ambulance earlier because of the sheer scale of panic and confusion caused my the worlds biggest hangover. I was puking bile, it was the worst thing ever. But then I was like, no, that would be an asshole-ish thing to do, as it'll be preventing them reaching some poor fucker out in Chingford, old grandpa Witherspoon who had a stroke and shit himself. And now I feel pretty good. Advice; don't down a whole bottle of port and then follow it up with half a bottle of Sambuca.

Thanks all you beauts. Had a great day, full of birthday tacos, Shakespeare, and a hot Pakistani chick dancing nekked for me. Love y'all. Take it easy

Not true I made a booze run yesterday. That took a half hour. Yeah Dosa World was awesome.

No you fool, I mean that the restaurant is literally outside your house, so obvs I'd have to introduce you . Although I know you stalk me .

Welp this is going to make it that much more awkward when I bring her to Brick Lane for a curry.

The best thing about Elizabeth is the way she actually interacts with the environment. She'll be stooped down looking at a piece of parchment on the floor or leaning over a parapet taking in the sights. So many times you'll walk in a room just to check out how she'll react to it. Brilliant character.

I literally can't stop fantasising about having sex with my own girlfriend. This is awful.

Doom cock. The greatest apposition in the English language.
