Off to see Transformers at first showing on Friday (13:45).

Knew there was something I had to do tomorrow (other than ironing combats and polishing boots).

Oh you dont know but now know how much i think that too, people who just ramble on about things like its a fact when all they did was assume or they dont know enough facts to make it a justifiable argument.

People might think its arrogant to think like that but its not its being realistic.

Being pessimistic is different to realism. I quite like the idea of moral realism.

Exactly. How people can think its ok to sputter some drivel about something they know barely anything about and talk like they know more than somebody who does actually know more than they do is incredible. No wonder mankind is like a pluage with an attitude like that.

Here's something to rant about:
Twilight fans
I was recently persuaded into reading the books by a lass I fancied and while my grammar and spelling are far from perfect those books were PAINFUL to read, seriously the grammar is atrocious. There is next to no plot, you can summarize 2000 pages or whatever the total is into five short sentences:
Bella falls in love with Edward after he saves her life. (Twilight) Edward buggers off elsewhere and she takes notice of Jacob. Edward tries to kill himself after coming to the conclusion that she was dead. (New moon) Edward and Bella get married. On their Honeymoon Edward sleeps with her, she gets pregnant and gives birth to a half vampire baby thing. (Breaking Dawn)
I don't hate the book, I just hate the type of girl who obsesses over it, when a book can cause such a long list of incidents as this:
http://twilightsucks.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=fangirls&action=display&thread=5175
there is something seriously wrong (sorry for bad grammar, GCSE English has decreased my capability in both spelling and grammar it would seem).
Nothing wrong with girls who enjoy it as a book, 4 of my best friends all enjoyed reading it (although one slightly more than the others, I'm trying to convince her she's NOT a fangirl), the constant references they make to it though are ridiculous. Although the abuse it receives from some of the lads at school is really quite bad (one of my best mates shoved the third one down his boxers and had someone else take a photo of it, I then had to explain to my ex what happened before giving her a replacement).

Will do when I go on the other laptop later on tonight, I've finally arsed myself to get Windows sorted on it since Ubuntu on the netbook was being a PITA when it came to playlist editing (don't even go there, I'm fine with using a different machine for it now).
I'm spenbo/ Rifleman Harris (Depends which one it shows up as, not used steam for ages).

Why in the hell would they jump out of the second floor window, did someone diss the book or something (that's assuming she's one of those Twihards who thinks it's the bible).

 

[kurosagi01]

UK thread bit dead so i'll bring it back up i guess lol,hows summer for you all?? mine is really boring

 

[MoonPig]

So far so good. Kinda annoyed i can't find a PSU for this project though

Here's a joke I picked up while I was at Welbeck DSFC over the weekend:
A JNCO was ordered to go and fetch some K9P weapon oil from the store by an SNCO, so he jogs down to Store 1 and asks for some and is told "we've not got any here, try store 2"
So he then goes to store 2 and is told "we have none of that here, try the weapons store"
so he goes to the weapons store and is told "I'm sorry, we've just ran out, try the dog store"
so he goes to the dog store and says "Can i have some K9P, OH SHIT!"
Edit: Summer's been good craic for me, went down to Welbeck last weekend for a leadership competition and came back with two trophies, just had an induction day for what may be my new school and I've acquired a couple new friends,

Yeah, and the sodding moths at night!! BASTARDS!!

 

[kurosagi01]

annoying bugs at night i found one in wardrobe i was thinking "WHE THE F*CK GET OFF MY CLOTHES" and what it was..a daddy long leg and i saw it and didn't have time to grab something to kill it,so i just showed no mercy and grabbed it with my hands and crushed it.

+1

at night with the window open i have the following choices:

1. turn off the lights, i don't get too many insects through teh window but it is a bit hard to play L4D with 4/5 daddy longlegs swarming my monitor.

2. turn the lights in my room on, this results in a new daddy longlegs wallpaper effect on all my walls, although my pc monitor is usually insect free.

3. cook to death (close the windows - with them open i'm around 25/26 degrees ambient @ night).

4. turn off pc (or worse, turn down my OC).

5. train a spider (well first learn to not hate spiders, then train one) to eat up all those bastard insects and not make webs everywhere. Only problem then is i could end up with a giant mega-spider.

of those options what would you guys do?

 

[MoonPig]

Train a spider, defiantly

I don't have a problem with any insects... Probably cos Yorkshire is t'best county.
