Be Excellent To Each Other

Holy fucking shit do I feel awful. A relatively quiet Saturday went off the rails completely due to randomly meeting up with a mate I rarely see and we then went on to get utterly, shockingly fucking hammered. I hadn't even eaten anything that day apart from a pretzel for breakfast so it was all done on an empty stomach. I lay in bed literally all day yesterday and couldn't face food so that's pretty much two days without eating, my flat is a horrible tip and I still feel like frozen shit right now. It's going to be loooooooong day and teetotalism is looking like a really lovely idea about now.

What do they have that compares to Monkeyfingers?

Hint: The answer is NOTHING COMPARES TO MONKEY FINGERS.

Just had an email saying that if I have pre-ordered a new release single on iTunes, its now available for download. Which is all fine and dandy, but I haven't preordered it (this email is from the fansite, not iTunes) and so surely they'd rather that if I had preordered, I'd have forgotten I'd done so and go and preorder it from elsewhere for a double sale?

Also, why the hell would I preorder a single that has been on Spotify for 4 weeks already? (It was an email from the same source that initially alerted me to this)

I like Taylor Swift's new album.

I'm just going to leave this here and back away quietly...

I haven't listened yet.

You must have seen her do Shake it off on the X-Factor result's show, right? Right? Right?

You're confusing me with the sort of cretin who would watch the X Factor.

Yeah, me neither. I heard about it through a friend or summarts.

Yeah, me too.

I can't believe Myp missed that rogue apostrophe.

I assumed it must have been a typo rather than a grammar usage decision, because it just beggars belief.

I'll tell you what beggars belief, those hot pants she was wearing.

I don't appreciate your sexist comments. I thought we were discussing music.

Miss Swift is a fine looking lady.

All I know about X-Factor comes from Gogglebox.

The concept of Gogglebox depresses me so much. I've caught bits of it a couple of times, and the first time they were talking about a special show that was meant to interest dogs. I was sitting on a sofa watching TV on which some people were sitting on a sofa watching TV on which there were some dogs WATCHING TV.

Me too. The fact that so many people lap up this bollocks is misery-inducing.

What is it? Other than Grim...'s description. Is it a comedy show?

It's people watching TV.

Is that it? Really? Wow, that depresses me.

Literally that. They put cameras in people's houses and you watch them watch the week's TV.

It used to be really funny, when it was fly-on-the-wall stuff. Now it is part scripted and they are their own brand of celebrity now, and know it. Plus they throw in "worthy" stuff for them to react to.
At the start it was normal people, watching shit TV and taking the piss out of the people on it.

Goggle box is ace, fools

Wow, I have never heard of it before; is it on ITV?

Channel 4

Jesus.

I would like a TV show to be made of me, watching this thread scroll by on my screen, reacting to it, and then you can watch it.

Almost as bad as Top Gear then.

What will you be wearing?

Top Gear is scripted?! You'd think I knew that, what with them referring to it being scripted in a load of episodes.

Just a smile?

I meant 'bad' as in quality-wise, not that it was a surprise.

I've not really watched enough of Googlebox to comment.

Top Gear is awesome though, obv.

Would be boring if we all agreed on everything.

Still got it... This game never gets old.

I agree. I play it every now and again and I still think it's brilliant.

I like the bit where Pacman sometimes goes by in the background, or dolphins jump out the water.

I once tried IK- but it wasn't compatible with my drive.

I spent a kingly £8.75 on a pair of Bluetooth wireless headphones so i can play ps4 when wife wants to watch TV. Only I can't use them as my TV is not Bluetooth.

So use the PS4: http://manuals.playstation.net/document ... tooth.html

I've just ordered a load of bog standard, old fashioned light bulbs. You know, the ones that actually let you see what you are doing.

Fucking eco lightbulb bullshit. I've had enough I tell you, enough!

The first time I manage to sit down for two minutes since the cotrage, I get this! Is there no way to make it wait until you have finished what you are doing? /stupid windows 8

Gaz, are you going to this?! http://www.spacecentre.co.uk/special-ev ... -halloween

I believe that you're complaining about computers here, rather than win8

This is a particular windows 8 thing though, I don't mind updates, but would like some control over when they happen rather than "You're about to do something? Oh, okay, I'm going to update and restart now. "
