Pointless Accolades
In 1998 I won 'Best Actor' in the Essex Student Drama festival, for my portrayal of a child in a harrowing (read: pretentious) devised piece based on Dunblane.

What awards have you won in your life that mean absolutely nothing?

I am rigid with joy and spurting with happiness...
I just bought a chopped m-series Hammond Organ for £50 and it is truly beautiful.
Considering I already have a moog, can't play keyboards very well, that it doesn't actually work and I have no clue on how to fix it - how can I justify the purchase?
(Other than the fact that tonight I will be playing The Seeds at full volume whilst 'pretend playing'.)

FIGHT!
I just remembered being 18, hanging with a couple of friends, driving around in my mom's car.
We pull up to a stop light and they start yelling at some redneck dude calling him hot, sexy, etc. I'm telling them to shut up, they continue until they see two redneck chicks running full speed at us.
They don't say anything other than "SHIT, Roll up the windows!!" and their little arms start scurrying and clawing to get them up. This is when I look up and see these tight jeans and crop top wearing, white rain teased haired girls launching at my mom's car.
As luck would have it the light turned green and I floored it.

Ever been in or close to a fight? 0 points for WoW stories.

I am not an internet geek...
At least, not the good type who actually has technical knowledge of how to do useful things on the web.

I'm looking to create a website. Nothing fancy, just needs to show off photos and information, maybe have some YouTube videos embedded. It also needs to look relatively professional.

I am willing to spend money on this venture (but not much). The question is, how easy/difficult is it to make one? Do you know any Web Hosts which are awful/decent? Can I learn everything I need on the internet for free or will I need an alpha-geek's special powers?

I am not a happy bunny.

Went to the docs for some more jollop and got the bus into town afterwards. Ok so far.
3 minutes into the journey I notice my arse and the back of my legs are now soaking wet.
I stayed on the bus and went home for a shower and change of clothes only to find on checking the jeans
that some dirty twat on the bus had pissed themselves and I'd sat in it.
Fine start to the fucking day.

Cyclists
I just realized an odd thing, I hate cyclists.... nothing odd in this many Clarksonites no doubt feel the same. What is odd is that I own 5 bicycles, cycle pretty much everywhere and would generally be considered a cyclist.

I don't hate myself, it's all the other Lycra-clad twats. It was all triggered by this: road.cc/content/news/15632-london-cyclists-urged-complete-online-survey-risk-taking-behaviour which made me realise that not that interested in helping other cyclists, if they cannot figure out that not riding in front of big lorries is bad for their health then we are better of with them out of the gene pool.

In fact if I may rant I am not interested in more cycle lanes or any of this pro-bike bullshit, I am infavour more cyclists not riding like retards, shutting the fuck up wining (yes, of course you get killed more often, you are not in a metal box, act accordingly) learning how to maintain and ride their bike properly and generally accepting that they are nor special and unique flowers.

anyway, a question is traditional, is it not? so, how do you feel about cyclists?
