Wow Mr Alan, I'm impressed, I really am. That's the best I've heard from an Irish unsigned group to date.

Better than on a Monday.

Not bad today. Glad the week is nearly over though.

I would give my right arm to be back in college. Drive past it every morning and see all the bum students strolling in without a care in the world and seeing all the chicks that make a ridiculous amount of effort to look good for college. I end up thinking; I should go back and show my appreciation for their efforts. Sigh.

Decided to skip my thermodynamics lecture this morning so I could get an extra hour or two in bed and finish my lab report that has to be handed up for 3. I hate 100% continuous assessment modules tbh, it means that you have stress for the whole semester, whereas otherwise you'd only be stressing in April/ May when the panic exam study kicks in.

I'd be the complete opposite. Prefer CA to one big exam as it means if you feck up on the day you can still pass.

Thermodynamics, came over all sweaty and got serious flashbacks there for a few minutes. Part of my course in college years ago, tough goin it was too.
On the subject of being back in college, I don't think I could, Thermodynamics being one of them and possibly being too old :pac:

eZe^

Im a bigger fan of relaxing throughout the year and then pulling 1 month of ridiculous study. It allows me to enjoy my other 11 months as I'm not continuously worried about the assignment I have to hand in every Thursday/ Friday.

Ya man, Thermodynamics is one of my harder modules, I think it's a good bit more difficult than quantum mechanics as it has the added bonus of being boring. C++ is another one I'm having alot of difficulty with too, considering none of us have ever done programming, and after a few weeks our lecturer has given us an assignment that 2nd year CS students would have alot of trouble doing.

Morning folks.

Al, I only heard "Painted" on that site, which other track is up there?

How's the form with everyone today!? Got my blood tests back, no problems so I'm delighted. He thinks it was a mild chest infection but tis gone now anyway so alls well.

Does anyone know when TDK is out on DVD?!

Frisbee

ShiverinEskimo

Oh no. More TDK talk now. Don't tell me we have to go through all of that again for the DVD release?!

Frisbee

Really want to see that movie 'Quarantine'.
It will probably be an epic failfest but it looks good...

Going into me mother's tonight to see what the family got for me.

I'm sure we'll get a mention in a biography in 30 years when he gets to his aged deep and reminiscent stage of his musical career.

Will he continue to post here though?

Xavi6

I'm gonna pursue a career in music journalism just so I can slate his debut release* :cool:

They all sell out eventually. Look at MTV.

South Park is amazing.
It's like a fine wine. One of the only shows that is getting better with age.
Pandemic, The China Probrem, The Barrack episode.
They're all absolutely top quality television..

Anyone else watching Season 12?

You should watch the original, [Rec]. Quarantine is supposedly a shot-for-shot remake, so it should be pretty much the same. Great show.

I'm watching it and there have been some gems. The Barrack episode as you say was terrific. Overall though I don't think it has been as consistent as the last few seasons.

The first half was poor aside from the over-logging episode. However the last few episodes have been comedy gold

Over logging was one of the greatest things I've ever watched...."It's an ectoplasm"! :pac:

South Park is my favourite TV show. There is a misconception that its gotten miles better. Remember "Sexual harrassment Panda?" - Season 3 I belive, as well as Cat Orgy and some other classics. It's gotten more un-PC over time, making it great but it's always been hilarious tbh.

They've had some awfully sh*tty episodes in the last 2 series imo. They've run out of good things to satire so now are just picking random popular culture. The Pandemic episode was class though.

Necronomicon

I loved the first half of Pandemic, but the second was awfully disappointing IMO.

Yeah true. I really liked Craig over the course of the two episodes. He was just so no nonsense and straight to the point. Quality

Black Hawk Down is on. Fantastic.
Was just thinking the other day I hadn't seen this movie in a while and I'd like to see it again.

Just watched over logging on stansdad.com

Good laugh.
