I think she means me. If it's any consolation, I'm not the best company either.

Crash - bang your head off a (plasterboard!) wall. It helps. Especially if you do it in front of whoever you said something stupid too. They'll think you're a bit weird, but that's better than them thinking you're an idiot with no social skills.

that only works if I'm drunk. whereas I'm sober and still managed to do something that even a five year old would look at someone and go "man, he has no social skills" - ffs.

Ha, that doesn't even merit the time spent worrying about it, unless it was at a job interview/funeral. Pick it up man!

No that was written before I spoke to you. It was in reference to internet weirdos who IM me and then expect sex, and usually I tell them to shag off very nicely, but now I just yell at them.

And Crash look at where you are, look again at your social skills, or lack there of. A sense of clarity should descend.

Lyme disease is ****ing scary ****. God I hate ticks.

quote off dilbert newsletter...
One of my co-workers (who is originally from Arkansas, just FYI) told me one day that he knew for a fact that sex feels better for women than it does for men. I asked, "How do you figure that?" His reply was (and I am not making this up!), "Because when you put your finger in your ear and wiggle it around, it feels better to your ear than it does to your finger."

I don't think I've ever seen a tick. Do you live near animals?

I've only seen ticks a couple of times. There's something very unsettling about them.

gymrabbit

man they're scary little yokes. and you can't just yank them out when they're inside you, you have to be clever/evil about it.

John

Burn them out

Hey, it's not that bad. There's not much in the way of facilities or things to do outside the pub, but it's good for swimming/hiking/surfing/snorkelling and such, that's why I like to spend summer there. Although I guess my family is there, so free food/accommodation/lifts everywhere, etc..

To answer pet's question in the woohoo thread (but I was gonna post it here anyway). I stopped doing my report about 4 hours ago yet I'm still up because of all the coffee and cigarettes I had :mad:

Pet

Hahaha. I'm up because this is my sleeping pattern for the past week. But in a hilarious twist of events, I have to get up in about 5 hours for practice with John and the band. Oh joy. (The getting up that is, I have no beef with practice.)

8thor2nd?

The days seem to be really disappearing with regards to holiday time and back in college time. My brother has a couple of weeks to go, stargal seems to have a month left. And I'm wasting it away on the internet. /me cries.

Pet

Ah for ****'s sake. I have to be up in five hours to play drums, and I'm tiiiiiired.

Curse this sleeping pattern, and curse the internet.

8thor2nd?

Yeah I'm going to sleep now. Screw you PET!

He made it up in time and gave a sterling performance, hats off to our Roro!

Pet

I only made it up in time because of the ****ing FIRE ALARM THAT WOULDN'T SHUT UP. But thanks.

So, who wants to buy my SE K750i? The joystick is ****ed, but aside from that completely integral part of the phone, it's in great condition..

John

How many texts does it hold?

That's the thing about sony ericssons. They're fantastic BUT if they have a joystick it inevitably goes to the dogs unreasonably quickly. It's a major major major flaw of them and put me off putting it on the aul christmas list.

Santa Cockburn went ahead and bought me one anyway :rolleyes:

Luckily for me though the w300i has one of those circle buttons instead of a joystick

Not enough, as I discovered today.

A few days ago my 750i completely froze up and now refuses to start up. I'd buy yours if it weren't for the joystick, which btw was not far from ****ed on my one also.

God bless meteor. a gang of us sent 1200 free texts to a mate to try and jam up his 3310. It worked.

A BMW 750i? God, I wish....

Easy mistake to make though.

Edwardius

If only a BMW dealer made that mistake.

Edit: Does that make sense? I want a BMW 750i is what I'm trying to say and I don't want to pay for it. However ownership should be legitimate and the fooling of a BMW dealer must also occur. Anyone know any of those brain tricks in which you get people to pay you and convince them they've been paid? No? Ok. I wanna get rich fast.

Troglodyte

Unlikely he ever will though. And that's the thing about life, isn't it? Really lovely mistakes like that never, ever seem to happen, while the screw-ups that you really don't want do. Like the way that illnesses seem to afflict the nicest people, and the rotten s**ts that you'd wish plague and pestilence upon seem to sail through everything unaffected.

Edwardius

Yeah, Poor saddam!
