Be Excellent To Each Other

Cheers, I'm working on a draft letter now.

Don't forget to doodle on it.

It does (once the strange 'a' was removed). I'm suspecting a Mac / Safari thing.

Nah, your link still doesn't work there dude.

Anyway, I take it I'm alone in hoping that MaliA fails in this endeavour purely because the world needs less people talking bollocks about things they know little about rather than more?

Hmm, and it seems the other thing the world needs more people of is people who're better at sentence construction than me.

I think the world needs more people who are out there taking a risk... for the amusement of the forum!

Clearly this isn't going to be resolved until I ban everyone not using Chrome version... Er... 15.0.874.106 m

/Gets hammer

If it's a case if having a job, and not having a job, I'm happy to talk whatever shit is needed. Needs must when the devil rides and all that.

To be honest, if he gets the job then MaliA will probably have to sit through so many tedious X vs Y superhero conversations that he'll be fully geeked up on comics knowledge before the week is out.

I didn't know nowt about classical, jazz, folk or country before I started my music library job. Now I feel smug pride on the subject.

Yes (well, apart from Dimrill and some Spanish goats). I see your point but in this instance I know MaliA does have an interest in Comics/Graphic Novels and is just seeking help from us to 'cram before the exam'. I hardly count that as being in the same league as the extra Christmas staff found in say Dixons etc. who are just there to blag and up-sell.

Plus once he's in I can tap him up for cheap stuffs.

Fair enough, I'm happy to take people's word for it. In defence of my original post, MaliA's OP doesn't read as someone who knows some stuff and just wants a hand; it genuinely reads as someone who knows nothing and wants help pretending to know everything (going as far as looking to craft up photographic proof of a comic collection that doesn't exist) so without any background I don't know think I can be blamed for wondering wtf.

Anyway, I'll shut up now!

Yeah, I can totally see that. It's just that I know Mali has read and commented on a fair few comics while he's been a member here.

The wanting a photo of a comic collection is pushing it though, yes.

Hello btw, Bamba!

How did you come to be here?

I'd ping the WoS forum now and again in the past just for general games knowledge and when I noticed all the snide references to people setting up a new forum I thought I'd track it down and see what it was all about. This was purely for the sake of possible new source of good gaming info and chat and I was not at all attracted by the whiff of internet drama, no sir! I added Beex to the list of forums I'd check in on now and again and started lurking more actively (hmm, can you actually lurk in an active sense?) over time. Having just done the relevant cheevo, Grim's question about the Arkham City base-jumping proved too juicy a target and I broke and posted. I don't generally play games as soon as they come out so don't feel the urge to post on active threads but Arkham City has been my undoing it seems.

Wow, and you stayed?!

Welcome

Ta!

Is your surname Gascoigne?

Because that would be awesome.

Also, hello Bamba. Stick around, we're not all bad.

Man who will be Cassidy in the Preacher:

Looks great. A relief after rumours Cillian Murphy might be up for the role.

This resurrected thread is noteworthy for Pete's typically brilliant rundown of comics you should read. And Bamba's Beex birth.

I have 1000's of comics on my NAS, can send you some explorer pictures of folders etc if that helps?

You might want to check the date of the first post...

Do you have The Sculptor?

How did it go, Mali?

Sucked, dude. Now I just move boxes.

Bend your knees. Keep your back straight

Some times, there are no boxes. Then there are arguments.

Those days are bad days. I sit in the park. On the swings. And have a drink. Those make the bad days better.

Other days, I sit in the park and watch the birds. Those are normal days.

Sometimes I feed the pigeons. Sometimes I feed the sparrows too. It gives me a sense of enormous wellbeing.

Reading Zenith on my magic tablet with an eldritch comic reading app...I'd forgotten how excellent the series was.

Have the swifts arrived?
