Be Excellent To Each Other :: View topic - Be Excellent to Each Other in Manchester

Ooh. Meant to say my photos are now up in the Beex Pool on flickr. Apparently my username there is On Treadmills, in case you were wondering.

I had a lovely piss in the Cornerhouse.

At least 3 times, people offered to buy me drinks and I declined, saying I was just about to get one for myself and MrsP, only for me to ask MrsP what she wanted and her to say 'Oh, Kalmar/Bik/Someone else is getting me one'. So, thanks for the offers chaps, and thanks for keeping the missus in drinks

Apart from those brilliant open air ones at Piccadilly Gardens.

That one from my house with Babestation on the telly could probably do with an NSFW tag on it though.

Are glowing women not allowed in your workplace? You can't see a thing apart from her eyes.

Just been sharing your lovely comments with MrsP and becoming amused with the fact I have to use your real names

Have we just had the regularly scheduled dinnertime downtime?

ThroughSilver: I don't think you ever did explain what you do for a living, so there's no way you're going to stop me thinking you wrestle mountain goats all day now. A top bloke, with the manliest eyebrows you can imagine, and yet a complete obsession with furniture. I hope you find your dream sofa, chap.

I don't remember buying a Propagandhi album on iTunes...

By the way people, I have gained two socks and a hat. The socks do not match.

It's a good job this Propagandhi album is really good or I'd be really pissed off.

Speaking of forgetting, nice of me not to mention the fantastically lovely Meaty Angel and Mrs. Angel. Mongolian all you can eat vets, represent.

I want to wear less next time.

Oh, and are any of you going to admit to sending me texts?

I no longer need a gasmask to use my bathroom!

Let Mr. Russell take Rachel; we can find happiness with each other.

Also: people who aren't you, I or Nikachu should be informed that there is an emo song called 'I Never Told You What I Do For a Living'. I may be getting older, but I can read emo code.

I wasn't aware of this. Aside from my girly looks, I don't ‘do’ emo. Load of tosh.

So that makes me the most emo person on the board, then. It's the last song on My Chemical Romance's second album!

Or so I've been told...

Why do I look like a grandad?

... do I usually look like a grandad?

Blarp. Hope it doesn't affect the count again but as well as kovacs being on the list of attendees in the first post twice, I have just noticed I am as well.

This can be explained by the fact that myp is a gigantic mong.

On Sunday morning
Zardoz: Urgh I've just been sick.

So, to exactly how many people did I explain my plan of drinking two pints of old peculiar to catch up with everyone, and then tailing off with something lighter? Or was it the same person I kept explaining it to?

Did I ever tell you about this Czech girl I used to go out with?

I know. It's like the flick of a switch as well; I can be fine one minute and then all over the shop the next.

Shush you! You nodded off too!

Zardoz wrote: I had a lovely piss in the Cornerhouse. FUCKING Manchester. We left the pub after three pints and watched one tram leave as we came over the bridge. We got onto the station and another one arrived and left while we bought tickets to avoid being done for the MANDATORY FARE of £100. Naturally there was then a huge gap in the service and I was dancing a merry dance of DESPERATE NEED FOR A PISS and contemplated going to piss down by the station elevator when the tram arrived several ice ages later. Thankfully a seat became available and I was able to hold it in for a bit. Until we got off at GMEX, and Bik assured us it 'wasn't far'. I stumbled awkwardly along trying to avoid JohnCoffeying my pants and even suggested just popping into a pub we were passing but Kate said 'I don't think they'll let you.' Every street seemed to be lined with CCTV, everywhere was busy, I was absolutely desperate. I could hold on no longer, my bladder just shrugged and prepared to give up, I shouted 'KATE! HELP!' and she suggested 'go there!' and I did... a tiny little alcove under the overhang of an office building, where a previous visitor had vomitted. THANK FUCKING JESUS HIMSELF. I would NOT have survived the 'only a short walk' to the pub without stopping. Suffice it to say, half our little entourage immediately scrambled for the toilets when we finally did arrive at the pub. So yes, FUCKING MANCHESTER. No toilets at the station, no toilets on the wonderful modern tram network, no public toilets anywhere.

I did manage to let Curio and 118 buy me one at some point (apologies if anyone else did and I've forgotten) and bought a few for other people. I'm so shit.

So, to exactly how many people did I explain my plan of drinking two pints of old peculiar to catch up with everyone, and then tailing off with something lighter? Or was it the same person I kept explaining it to? It all fell apart when generous people started asking what I was drinking, of course. Possibly this was how I ended up at the quiz machine with a pint in each hand, and falling into an English Panic when somebody came up to shake my hand. Also I apologise to those of you who I stared at and grinned unsettlingly for several minutes at a time. I was almost certainly trying to remember your names. I still don't know the name of the woman who sits opposite me at work after three weeks, so don't take it too personally.
