Alternatively why not do your post-Expo drinking at The Open House in BRighton!!!

Looks as if I may be unable to go, cry. As I have to work that night from 5 - 1am... Stupid student life. But the next day there is a zombie pub crawl in Brighton, how many of you will be able to make it to that? I suppose nobody. But oh well.

Every stupid little fucking thing that's happened to me in the past five years I can put down to Idle Thumbs.

kinda. http://perezhilton.com/?p=72115#respond My mum just sent me this. It blows my mind to see this in mainstream gossipy media stuff. I don't know why. It shouldn't but it does. I love everything right now.

That also blew my mind. Basically, every day my mind gets blown a little more.

Plz noooooooooooooooooooooooo

I've tried watching this again and again and it just seems really poor and crap. But I'm desperate to like it because ... because lots of people I really respect like it and so there must be something good about it right? I feel left out, like I don't get the joke, and that makes me feel unpopular I know people who have a really awesome sense of humour and love this show. There was one guy at work who kept repeating a line from it, and when he said it it was funny, but when I watched it in the show it was the opposite of funny... It was unfunny. Does anyone here like it? If so why? Please tell me the secret to liking this allegedly awesome show

I had a weird trapped nerve thing in my hand that, if I ran my fingernails over it, felt like an electric shock. It lasted about two months and then faded away... although yours sounds like proper pain instead of just an uncomfortable sensation. Haha you have a weak spot. I'm going to stab you in it for massive damage.

We are complex creatures, we can do many things.

Thunderpeel do what women do, LOSE WEIGHT IN ORDER TO FEEL BETTER ABOUT YOURSELF. Weight loss is the best anti-depressant! Yayyy!! Significant weight loss makes me feel better about myself and improves the level of attractiveness of the men who hit on me! Hurraayyy!!! My life is better when I am thin! :)

That's the worst advice ever. But I agree! Thunderpeel I'm sorry to hear that happened to you, but I think you will enjoy the freedom after a while. 'Specially if you start exercising and working out and doing all that healthy diet bollocks, 'cos then you can feel good about yourself and enter the dating world with a newfound confidence blah blah blah. So I recommend exercise! It is the remedy to everything. And some good friends and some dancing is also a remedy for everything. Kroms you win.

Hey frenchies! My mum is on holiday in France with my sisters, however it all got off to a bit of a bad start when the 'Hydraulic Slave Cylinder' on her car blew fucking up while she was driving. Now her car has broken down and apparently it's a bank holiday over there and her french in minimal, and since none of my sisters studied French in school LIKE I ADVISED THEM TO, they're a bit stuck. A bit stuck somewhere near Calais, but will be heading in the general direction of Paris today in a rented car or something. However, if they can't get the part for their car and have it fixed, they're kinda screwed cos it's a seven seater and for some reason this is irreplaceable and will leave them stranded, I don't know the exact details because my mothers heart was too broken and she wasn't making a great deal of sense on the phone. Can some of you French folk maybe try to locate, using the magic of phonery, from your local scrapyard, a HYDRAULIC SLAVE CYLINDER for a Mitsubishi Chariot, 1997cc, Diesel engine, year 1995, erm... let me know if you need any more information. If you can acquire it or find out a place where it can be acquired, my mum can come pick it up off you (if you live enough by, but I seem to recall most of you living Paris-area), or something, I don't know. We'll figure it out if you find it. And of course I will pay you lots of money (well, I will pay for any incurred costs) because my mums holiday will be saved, my little sisters will all be saved, and you sir, you will be a hero.

Yeah he wasn't being sarcastic. My sisters have good taste, and I know my Mum would go crazy for it. It probably wouldn't even be wasted on Oscar as there are dead people involved. Thanks for that awesome advice Vimes, I will take note.

Hehe, your mum sucks. Female anatomy is the most awesome to draw. 90% of people I draw are female, just because I find their anatomy and faces so much more appealing to draw. I also like drawing, so much I starting art uni in September. That's gonna be cool. I also like playing guitar and writing. Recently I started writing a story that's going well except for that after every other paragraph I seem to have written BLAH BLAH BLAH THIS BIT IS SHITE REWRITE REQUIRED. But hey whatever, it's fun! Also I'm really poor right now so I'm going to make little greeting cards out of my designs and sell them on Brighton Seafront, and also busk because surely people will give me SOME money for humiliating myself for playing not-so-great guitar at them. Especially if I have a sign that reads I AM SHIT AT GUITAR AND THIS EXPERIENCE IS KILLING ME BUT I'M DOING THIS BECAUSE I NEED MONEY...

Yeah they did in the end, I am not sure what the exact problem was. But she still needs the part for her car, which is stuck near Calais, but I have two weeks to ship it to some address for her Okay next question for those of you who live in Paris - where's cool to go? I've done the touristy crap when I was in school and I hated it. I did some flashy restaurants and stuff another time, and that was cool. But really I wanna see some cool stuff - cool pubs/trinkety shops/little local cafes/nice parks/anything cool like that. I will be heading there to see my mum eventually so would be good to get some interesting leads....

Awww, I think it must be something wrong with Calais indeed. They need to get right to the South of France too, and there's six of them, so it's gonna be no easy or cheap task to find an alternative. And then even if they got there, they'd have to drive back to Ireland somehow... At the moment I'm just waiting for my mum to call me back so I can talk about how to help her further, I reckon I can order the part online and send it to some address there for her, superfaststyle, and maybe she can get a mechanic to sort it out for her soonish.

Thanks so much Vimes, that's so, so much appreciated. I have found a part but I guess I will have to send it to her or something. Cars bah.

I'm 23... Soon I'll be a woman.

Hey, me too!

Okay the deal is that those photos look very much like me (IRL me but I can't find a good photo comparison) but are not me, I was a bit creeped out when I saw them. They look like a weird cross between me and my little sister. I guess the only people who are going to care about this thread are people who know me personally, and even then they're not actually going to care. Oh PS I started the thread whilst logged in on Spaff's laptop and then couldn't be bothered to delete it, log out, log in and repost it. Anyway, Dan believed it was me when I posted it as my facebook profile the other night. And Dan's known me for four years. Knowing my dad she probably is my half sister. Her mum is probably also my half sister and that's why the resemblance is so strong.

It's ME

Hate typing forum posts on my phone ... Anyway I'm catsitting for someone while they're on holiday. Was trying to watch TV and then an awesome thunderstorm started. As one particularly loud crash of thunder occurred, however, the digibox went off. Everything is plugged into a surge protector and nothing else seems affected. But the light on the digibox won't go on now, except for half a second if I unplug it and then plug it back in. Is it normal for the light to remain off if the cable somewhere has been lightning'd? Will it work again if the cable is fixed? I don't even know how cable works, doesn't it go below ground? I don't m ow what I'm talking about as I do not have a tv, it took me 6 fucking hours trying to figure out how to make the picture be shown in colour instead of black and white... The digi box is a goodmans if that helps. And I don't know what the cable provider is. Is that what you call them, cable providers? Anyway.

Well fuckers, I read a website about how to avoid getting ELECTROCUTED during thunderstorms and it said something like, KEEP WATCHING TV! Stay indoors and watch TV, don't unplug the TV because you might die. Something like that anyway. Elmuerte, it doesn't start properly. Power flashes on for a second but then goes off. Anything can be done about corrupted memory? Thanks for all the advice everyone. Might try hacking the box apart later. Will prepare a "welcome home" speech for Katie later...

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8088133.stm That is really depressing. As you can see from the map below, Yorkshire is reasonably far away from good old Brighton: I'm glad that this distance exists.

Noooo, I feel unwell!!!! Please let me be better tomorrow, please let me be better tomorrow....
