jayseven Posted July 3, 2010 Posted July 3, 2010 - I hate the world - Think I got my results - 2:2! In ypur face eenuh/everyone ever. Clearly the lowest grade anyone has, and deserves no thanks whatsoever as I was lazy as fuck throughout. - Did loads of FUN today but frankly it does not translate to online SPEAK - Hate my life
Goafer Posted July 3, 2010 Posted July 3, 2010 Had a BBQ at a friends house yesterday. Basically involved sitting around eating burgers and listening to friends play the guitar and banjo. It was mega-ace. Today went to Godiva Festival. It was amazing. Saw Ash (again), Detroit Social Club and Badly Drawn Boy. Expect radmax photos in the photography thread soon.
Paj! Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 BBQ at LITERALLY STUNNING friend's tonight, which ended up being a much more concise group of us than I expected, just bitching about people we hate, loving life over wine and beer. Come on having to leave the pub we went to. Come on the night dissolving into girls being annoying. My friend's plan to set up Chair with her brother failed.

Clearly the lowest grade anyone has, and deserves no thanks whatsoever as I was lazy as fuck throughout. - Did loads of FUN today but frankly it does not translate to online SPEAK - Hate my life and to think all those times you called me emo.. Pah, you finished your degree, YOU FINISHED IT, in all honesty I'm shocked, but well done regardless. Today is a day of nothing until I go back to my flat tomorrow to properly unpack and meet the boy, my landlord is so worried about broken things that he's even having the bathroom grouting (the white stuff in between tiles, no jokes here boys!) re-done even though imo after living in my old house I can hardly see anything wrong with it, but if it makes him happy I'm willing to go ahead. Internet problems will be sorted tuesday - happy days, so I can setup sky on tuesday, wheee.
jayseven Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 ... I don't really know what all that emo stuff was about! Don't feel any hate today! Friday I met up with my mate, and we continued a 6-year tradition where we take it in turns to buy pizzas. We went down to the lagoon (wooo!) and chatted the usual shit. Yesterday I went on a 2-hour walk to Devil's Dyke - a local viewpoint located on the south downs (countryside). Played some shoe tennis, 1000 blank white cards, ate chips n' dips, then got an open-topped bus to town where eventually 5 more people joined us on the beach to learn a new card game called 'pip-pip' which has a little too much chance to it for my liking. Today I was going to go to a car boot but it's been re-located, so instead I'll go to one next sunday morning with Clare, with whom I'm hoping I can firmly establish and confirm our relationship by the only way -- facebook status. It's been nice being back in Brighton - got my sunburn on the go, and keeping busy meeting up with people. Today I'm going for a picnic on the beach in a couple of hours, via the camping shop where I hope to buy a silly-looking 'fisherman' hat to help combat The Reddening. Living with The Mother has been tolerable so far, mostly because I've been out. She's actually offered to trade places with me, so I'll get the bedroom and she'll live on the sofa... win/win for me, but obviously I'm feeling guilty about her staying on the sofabed/z-bed. She's Adam Ant about it, so I guess I'll get a proper bed and online xbox and lie ins and mates over and privacy and even a smoking area with the french doors from the bedroom leading to the garden... I'm sure it'll balance out in terms of nagging and general old-person nattering. And my little toe's nail has split in two.
Dyson Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 My driving test is in 8 days, and I cancelled my lesson today as I'm all ill and such. Not good. Aside from that I've had an interesting couple of days that have involved calling the police, getting in an argument with my girlfriend, and throwing vodka slush puppies over myself. All of which are indeed unrelated!
Ashley Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 (edited) Apparently yesterday I was with three others and today two others. I say apparently because I'm pretty sure I was alone. But alas...or something. Yesterday went to a friend's house after work. Meant to be a BBQ but that didn't really happen and it was just my friend and his friend (who was like a mix between Jayseven and Eddage) but was nice just to chill out. Unfortunately due to public transport he lives 13 miles away but it took the best part of 3 hours so I was only there for about two hours. Booked the morning of the 19th off ^_^ Said I had a doctor's appointment. Shame Pete Docter isn't directing this one, then it would have been clever. Edited July 4, 2010 by Ashley
ReZourceman Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Big Post FTLulz Butlins So we went to Butlins last week. It was pretty sweet. Lots of arcading, ice cream, and such. I had Blueberry Swirl ice cream which has been fairly well documented in various places. I also had the fairly readily available brand Movenpick - Pistachio (awesome as always) and Pana Cota flavour which was....really really nice. We experienced the Spa, or rather I experienced a Spa for the first time in my life. Outside hot tub was amazing, with the amazing last weekends sun blazing down on my manly and glistening shoulders. Indoor "Hydro Pool" (I did wonder to myself "as opposed to a non-hydro pool?") which had powerful jet shower thing, uber shallow bubbles and hardcore bubble win, was amazing and where I spent most of time. Sauna was painfully hot and awesome (although I have been in a sauna once before, AGES ago) and then the ice cave! A cave of snow. Basically a freezer in fact. That was craZy. Only could stand just simply 1 minute at a time. And the pizza resistance was the freaking Steam Room. If you havn't done a Steam Room, go do a Steam Room or build a Steam Room. God just amazing. A room of steam. You control the steam with water and a hot plate, AND there were steam jets coming down AND you can press a button for personalised bursts of steam stream. Amazing. It was sickeningly cool. Had Papa Johns pizza a few times which is the UKs best chain pizza place (if you've not been then try it when you see it, and if you have you will obviously agree) and watched a bit of entertainment like Brainiac Science Abuse Live and George Shitty Sampson. -------------- End Of Work at Terrible Bank HBOS A) If you bank with Halifax, then leave. There is no way any other bank could possibly work, and this is coming from someone who saw the internal workings of the company. They are ignorant, too many departments to see the bigger picture, majority of colleagues don't care about customer service, the ones who do can't perform well enough anyway due to restrictions, we will do anything to screw the customer over etc. And this isn't just the same with all companies. I know peeps who've worked/work at Barclays and HSBC and they say its fine. So yeah. Anyway on Tuesday I did 90 minutes of photocopying/stapling/folder reproducing and that was it. Blagged no work for the ENTIRE of the rest of the day. And no one cared (obviously) Then Wednesday was the last day. I did 30 minutes of phone work and then that was it for the rest of the day. We (my whole team) went out for a farewell team lunch, and we had a nice talk and chat, a nice ending to the four years of work there. We then went back at 2:30pm and were basically told that we could go home early. So most people went to the pub for a final drink. I wasn't that sad actually. I mean the people that I want to see genuinely, I will (Molly) and the others I'll see occasionally, and the others I don't care about/didn't impact me hugely I will keep in contact with on FB. So that is fine. Molly did the best "Thats what she said" ever though. Well I said "Thats what she said" but she said (about the iPhone) "When you play with it, you'll fall in love with it". So that was good. ------------- Days Off Win So yeah Thursday and Friday were my first days off. I played Transformers War for Cybertron, Uncharted 2 and I ate more healthily and I did a tiny bit of working out, and I did Comedy Rainbow stuff (which was hated by most as usual :p) and I chilled generally, and I masturbated a little. This week I am dubbing "Film Week" and I'll be watching probably one film each day, also playing Transformers and Uncharted again and (might ink Paj's work if he has sent it...dunno if he has) and I might try and get my Printer working on new PC and upload all the amazing promo/design/planning pictures I've done of Tyrannic. Cos' I've got major loadzorz. And yeah so I'm gonna watch The Goods, Black Snake Moan, The Foot Fist Way and possibly Not Another Teen Movie and The Girl Next Door (the first three I've had for ages and not watched, the latter classics I havn't watched in a long time indeed) (Did I show pics of my new PC?) Here it is; Reveal hidden contents I Don't Like Being Annoying/Everyone Hates Me. I can count the number of people who will definitely text me back when I text them on 1 hand. It gets extremely extremely extremely annoying sometimes. I know I'm annoying but still. Fuck everyone. Finally I want to start a blog (to document my days of no work and what I achieve) because my Google one is (A) Not suitable and (B) being lame due to stupid Google bloody accounts, its trying to think I'm Vauchian Dolskzi (probably my own fault though) so what is the best, easiest, most massively visually pleasing blog site?
nightwolf Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Rez you bash halifax so much and I can understand if you work there, but I've been with halifax since I was little and every issue I've had (like having 50quid stolen) has always been sorted by them quickly and professionally..

Then you're lucky. As a counter point my friend who's with them had £100 vanish when being transferred to two different Halifax accounts and the people who spoke to couldn't help for shit. This was literally like last week. Well I would never bank with them anyway. Dyson said: Tumblr! As an example: http://www.dysonism.com That is precisely the simple design I am after. Winzors.

Hmm, it isn't just that incident thats cropped up, they've been quite good about my student loans, I think the only time I had a mishap was some old woman in one of the branches being difficult with me having my student loan put into my old account rather than my student one because it opened too late for it to enter my student loan. Some nice man sorted it all for me. Zing! shame I'll never move, I like halifax to much and would hate to move to someone like natwest!

I should mention that the design on my site is a custom one, however I can pass you the template if it's exactly what you're looking for. There are many more that you can use to show more bits and bobs, but the best thing about Tumblr is the lack of adverts and its complete ease to use. http://www.tumblr.com to sign up.
Goron_3 Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Got a phone call from Hollister today saying Abercrombie want me to do a photo shoot tomorrow! Kinda excited but at the same time terrified; I hate having my picture taken and I dunno would just be gutted if they were like 'too ugly' haha. Oh well it should be alright They chose me after I had my photo taken during my interview so surely I cant be THAT bad looking. On a side note, our former troop Hobbzino (or whatever) just put up a track off his upcoming mixtape onto youtube. The guys one hell of a writer but his actual track sounds rather good, quite impressed. To think, someone I know is writing a mixtape, weird.
Ellmeister Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Start my internship tomorrow. Have to get up early and get to Southampton for 10! Eeep, really nervous. Here's hoping it all goes well!
Ganepark32 Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Is it just me or do the first three films Rez listed as things he's going to watch sound like pornos? ------------------------ Has rained nearly all day here. When it hasn't been really strong winds so not ideal for doing anything. Well, I guess it was ideal weather for sailing or something but its been years since I've done that. *sigh* The good ol' days. So yeah, most of the day has been spent doing very little. I've been playing a lot of the Saboteur and taking down the Nazi war machine while simultaneously gaining a French accent and speaking with it the entire time I'm playing. Not heard back from jobs I've applied for so continuing to play the waiting game while looking for other things.
Pookiablo Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Boo, screw Tumblr, Wordpress is infinitely better! And Halifax sucks donkey dick. That is all.
Will Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Today I've mostly been falling asleep randomly due to jet lag, hopefully it'll be sorted when i wake up tomorrow. Pretty boring weekend on the whole actually, hoping i find some interesting activities this week. Pookiablo said: Boo, screw Tumblr, Wordpress is infinitely better! I'd agree with this too!
Jimbob Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Remind me to never drink 3x what i would normally drink on a Saturday. I remember some of the night, being the end where we were apparantly going to test the pain threash-holds of each other (don't know why really, i know one of us can't take a hit, another walked round with a fractured knee and another cracked his head open had a concussion and wanted to remain out). BBQ yesterday was nice though, all the beer i can drink (which was my down-turn). Sorted the Internet Security out at home (well, only mine so far have 2 more to do tomorrow). Spend an hour on Red Dead playing Poker. Twas all good.

jayseven Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Today I went to the beach for a surprise bbq that was quickly, due to wind, transported to the back-garden of the house belonging to the nan of a girl I secretly quite fancy who just introduced me to her new boyfriend whose virginity she stole. The BBQ was shit -- essentially there was me and my two mates manning the BBQ while everyone else was inside because a cloud spoiled the view. While this was mostly annoying because one of the girls had massive boobs and another was clearly a slut and had an ill-fitting bra (I saw her nipples, ffs), it was just a bit weird to be all segregated, S.A. style. Bought a wicked new hat. FUCK YOU, SUN!! Watched a couple of movies then went with Girl-I-Fancy to meet her bf at the pub he works at. Had two pints while we waited for him to finish, and I "gave her life perspective" for free, because that's the kind of idiot that I am. I should charge in blow jobs, or something. Anyway -- I'm not going to fuck about with that situation -- though she wants to move out, as do I, so it's very likely that we'll be living together within a few months, and I'm sure there will be a wine-fuelled evening of "ohmywtf" in the future. But generally I don't care. Just happy to be alive. Also come home to find I am now camped out in my mum's room, with her in the lounge. This is the beginning of Win. I just need to establish wtf is going on with ex/girl in order for life to be mostly-sorted. Should be going into argos to get teh transfer sorted tomorrow, providing I'm not too hungover (comment: LOOLOLOLO). Contrary to the last time I posted in here drunk; I love me. I love life!

I say that sort of thing in real life, but am not a football hooligan, nor have I ever met a football hooligan...but I think so? Just with no aggression behind it.
jayseven Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Found a girl I went to school with has turned to nude photos. ... She was the girl who got massive tits way too soon. Awesome.
