Be Excellent To Each Other

Christ, give them a chance, they've only just got the first one out.

Funny guy.

I shall supervise Myoptika in the garden, tidy the house, make an organised pile of things in the spare room for going on holiday and go out with my girls for a drink on Sunday. I have the house to myself on Monday for a few hours. I wonder what to do with that time...

I shall also possibly be trying out my new bike. You know the saying about never forgetting how to ride a bike? Well, I forgot.

Pipe cleaners usually do the trick. Failing that, I just glue cotton wool to their tails and poke them up there.

I fear I may live to regret this. But if you're not some weirdo psycho killer or something and fancy going for a pint one night, give us a shout as you're in the area. I've lived in the Hemel/Watford area all my life, but have recently managed to piss off enough people that I don't have any friends around here either right now!

Good times!

Unless my camera comes back with a clean dust free sensor (well, low pass filter, technically) my planned photography trips are out the window. With those removed, my itinerary looks like this.

Saturday : Waking up early to have breakfast in the cafe at the bottom of the street.

Sunday : Going to the local chinese all you can eat thing for dinner.

Monday : Going over to some shitty annual "community event" over the park which we go to every year even though it's shit. However, I hear there's a car boot sale there this year.

Tuesday : Feeling sorry for all the people who're back at work. For approximately 6 seconds.

At least the missus is off Sunday, Monday and Tuesday as well or I'd feel positively hermit like.

My kids used to do that...

red car man. makes it more violent.

And still strangely more coherent than anything CUS was managing a few weeks back.

This is soooo all going to end in tears.

*grabs popcorn*

92 posts in 2 days? That's got to be approaching CUS levels of activity, surely?

NINETY FUCKING TWO.

She hasn't had an apparent (and spectacular) nervous breakdown unfold throughout her posts yet. She better fucking hurry up too, because I'm building up to be the next person that does this!

Can someone tell Richard(Happy - Ed)wood that Brian Blessed appears to have hacked his account.

GORDON'S ALIVE?!?

Today (which is to say, Friday) - after finishing work, took an exceedingly circuitous route home to enjoy the weather, and instead nearly had a close encounter with the front of a bus taking a bend far too wide on a country road. Mowed lawn, drank a beer, finished off pack of pork scratchings, and struggled through more of Call of Duty 4 on Veteran. Am now at the utterly impossible bit on the penultimate level.

Tomorrow - Missus wants to go down to Cardiff Bay, I wanted to ride down to Ogmore, have ice cream and see the sheep and the sea. We'll see.

Sunday - Someone has arranged a birthday jaunt - a pub crawl around the Vale of Glamorgan by vintage bus. Trying to convince the missus to go.

Monday - No idea.

Stop being mean about CUS.

Also, aw, Shin censored "cunt". Bless.

Mine was a well-meaning jest. I may be alone in this, but I am genuinely a little concerned for our slightly-eccentric, post-whoring former-chum. I would welcome any news of him actually being okay, since he has declined to make any such comment to me himself.

You are not alone.

But he's still posting on WoS so don't worry.

I just looked, he is indeed posting on WoS, and being so incredibly wrong about something. It's a good thing I don't post there anymore, as I'd probably actually end up in an argument over that.

As for me this weekend. More coding work. Usual sunday morning (Bass this week) followed by the usual rush to get home to watch the f1, followed by more coding work. Followed by yet more coding. My target for Wednesday has been horrifically missed. (My door incident on monday meant I rushed into something on tuesday to make up for the missed day. And that went horribly wrong, but I only properly realised that late wednesday.)

Talking of not posting here. I may try to avoid the place for a few weeks as my work is so dull that I'm procrastinating here which isn't helping. Maybe see you in a day, maybe a week or so. Probably when Castle Crashers comes out. Miss you.

Love to your mothers.

Aww. Good luck wih it all Lave.

What Mr Dave hasn't explained is that every Sunday morning he plays bass guitar in a Welsh Guns & Roses tribute band, "Guns & Daffodils". Along with his merry band (including Mr Chris as Slash) they tour old peoples homes banging out the hits for the over 70's. I believe they do a fantastic version of Sweet Child Of Mine which culminates with Mr Dave stage diving into the crowd of wheelchairs while on fire.

You're in trouble if it wasn't actually cunt

Also, petition that all future drunk posts by shin be made in audio form.

Don't say this, this is embarrassing enough as it is

It could be worse. My ex was worse. It was mortifying at the time when she used to do the internet drunk. Silly tart.

Now, however, it's highly hilarious that she used to make a right fool of herself, and not in the drunken rambling kind of way.

Hello. Zio - you're an idiot and your Facebook account has too high privacy settings for me to even view your account, never mind reply to you there. Thus this tedious alias. Yourself or whomever should just e-mail me at [email protected]. Except here I am saying "I'm entirely fine", so don't bother. And I've just called you an idiot. Well, what did you say above? Fair's fair.

Re: "You think that's baaaad, what about the time when CUS went insane". This is possibly the only forum on the internet where someone can say "Yeah, I'm trying to get banned, and have been for several months" - which is then later verified - and still have assorted mouth-breathers going "God, what was THAT all about?! What did he want?!" BETEO - separating the wordsearchers from the crossworders there.

Re: "And he's well mentil!" - I am entirely chipper and far better-adjusted than you, I would quite assuredly posit. In case you had worries - don't, please. I'm not the one who can't understand a "Please ban me" thread, for example. Mentalists. *pauses, waits for something to be said* No, it's never about you is it? Self-deluded mentalists, then. Mostly.

Me, well, I bought Link's Awakening DX for £1.99 earlier, and am currently enjoying a rare treat of a McDonalds' Breakfast.

Re forum: stop all the "Sparkly Handbag RMD!" and "What type of wine goes best with this type of tennis court?", and talk more (at all, even) about games and stuff, for fuck's sake.

I shall now randomly scramble the password on this account and fuck off like the baffling and insane cunt that forum legend finds it convenient to simplify me as. Much like what happened to Jesus. I am indeed, a lot like Jesus. Including the back-stabbing disciples! Ho ho ho. E-mail me if you'd like a nice chat about games or something. Toodles!

Well. Today's gloomy weather was altogether ruined a few hours ago by RAIN.

My girlfriend spoke to me on the phone from Irishland earlier whilst we both watched Tom Baker era Doctor Who on Sci-Fi channel. Isn't modern technology great?!

Well, I've been drinking more or less constantly since about half past 11 this (Saturday) morning. Which is to say, not necking, but never without some sort of boozy beverage in my hand. This is only slightly different from yesterday, when I didn't start until after I'd been to Asda.

Tomorrow shall be more of the same... except, in public!

WEEEEEEEEE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON.

I guess it's down to me to make this the most boring bank holiday ever.

I call upon .... the power of Joyce! FNRAAAAAAAAAARRRGGHHH

-yes and it was terribly important father.
-yes it was. Charybdis.
-i see you made a reference to Homer there.
-yes.
-yes.
-good.
-yes.

(repeat)

I had to waste the best part of 2 days reinstalling my whole pc...

I'll be not playing Baten Kaitos any more, because I just won it. With mouldy fishfingers.

*slowly waves hands around in a spooky fashion*

Watch oouuuuutt! I have mooouuuuulldy fish fingers!

I have the in-laws coming round next weekend, so I'm currently busy building up a smut-buffer for next week's strips, as well as (twiddling his thumbs and definitely not working on any commissions - Legal ed). And being in the U.S now, we don't even have a bank holiday this weekend. Boo. Though apparently there's 'Labor Day' next week. Labor Day - fucking rubbish name for a holiday, that.

Today, being back in Yorkshire to visit the fam, I'll be going into Leeds where I hear there's a market festival or something. I'll be meeting my matey John there too, and then it's off back to his place in Haworth for a night of drinky fun. Amusingly, this translated into a dream where by dad - who has an inexplicable hatred of Haworth - was asked by me and mum if he wanted to go to John's as well and, in becoming of a sudden Frank Costanza screamed back, "I'm not going to Haworth! Never! NEVER!"

Maybe I'll run into AceAceBaby who will recognise me by my dimlie avatar portrait. Who knows?

We'll have no bank holiday here.

Good work, sir (and lady-sir).
What did you win, 1/3 of the pot and drinks, I hope.

Just a box of chocolates. We generally win or come second anyway, but it was especially surprising this time as we thought we'd done terribly. Evidently we didn't do as terribly as everyone else.

I can go one better. I shorted out the motherboard on one of the computers I was 'fixing'. Oops.

Tilly wouldn't keep still. This was the only decent pic I managed to get of her.

Oh and she was in shot on this one but as I took it, she rolled herself off the table.

Better than that. The one you did fix has completely frozen. I emailed you off it this morning, then it refused to talk to the net even though it was telling me it had a good connection. Then it refused to do bugger all. I ended up 'fixing' it by holding in the power button to turn it off!

*strokes laptop loving*

Want me to keep an eye out for a new job for you too?
