I don't usually come on here in the evenings
But I'm bored OUT OF MY MIND. I'm at home coughing up not one, but two lungs and trying not to let my lab report descend into delirious feverish rambling.
I feel like death, the Doctor was NO HELP (see facebook status) and and I left sex and unopened Baked Alaska Ben and Jerrys back in Manchester. Cheer me up by convincing me how much shitter you life is than mine, please.

Unjustified new thread fuelled by crippling boredom and laziness
I heard, although ever since the event I've been trying to deny this, the new Black Eyed Peas single recently. It's called The Time and is unquestionably the single most unarguable instance of an abject creative void I've ever heard. It should be called The Time (if you pay for this you're effectively acquiescing to nothing original or interesting ever being recorded again).

What's got you into a lather lately?

Furthermore, could I possibly have used poncier language to express my distaste above? Not one person who listens to the Black Eyed Peas will be able to read that

Whilst in the library earlier
Me and my mate spotted a fiver on the floor. We did what any poor students would do and bought twenty fags.
Then whilst walking down Northumberland Street in town we were asked to do a survey about Pringles, got taken to a little office and ate a load of them and answeered a few questions. We got given a tub of Pringles each and a quid for our troubles.

This could quite possibly be the best day of my life. What wins have you had lately?

I'm having to do some work outside work hours. This happens to me very very rarely, but happens to others from my office an awful lot.

it's a bit slow on here today, where is everyone?
just when i really need help too. well, more than normal. so the real question, given that you can't answer the first if you are not here, is this:

i have to start drafting my final oxford piece, which is supposed to be a comedy play about dating. i am feeling about as inspired as a dry sponge and am therefore hoping to scrounge some truly comedy lines from you lot. has anyone had a particularly brilliant chat-up line, a desperately bad let-down line or other form of dumping (esp on a first/blind date), or otherwise got any surreal or other dating experiences? i promise to give you a cut of the royalties when the play hits broadway and the west end in 2012*.

* - play will never hit anything other than the desk or possibly bin of the examiner. percentage of royalties to be calculated by my accountant: colonel, dracula & co llp, not to exceed 0.000000001%. terms and conditions apply.

What new technological wonders are dazzling your world?
My tech savvy wunderlust was waning of late. I own a phone that has a 16 colour screen, my laptop is 5 yrs old, my mp3 player is actually a CD player, I don't own a games console and I don't have a kindle, but invested in a book shelf instead. I do have a flat screen tv, but behind the screen is a large box about the size of a small factory. Never the less it's still a flat screen. So with Christmas around the corner I thought it was the perfect excuse to get something interesting like a new phone or a kindle or something similarly useful. Just wondering what shiny bleep bleep bling everyone else has got?
