Hello Honies! I'm home!
Gonz did films that make you scared, what films make you cry. Oh, and I'm expanding that to TV, muisc and books for those of us who rarely see films.

Movies that have put the willies up you.
Are there any movies that have really put the willies up you, made you afraid to sleep with the light off or have to spend the night at a mate's house instead?

There are a few that have done that for me :-
- The Exorisim of Emily Rose
- The Fourth Kind
- The McPherson Tape
- That clay animation thing with Mark Twane

I haven't seen Paranoid Activity, or it's sequal, but I'd like too.

I wonder if anyone fancies a Creepy Movie Night this month?

Given the variation in weather do you believe in climate change? If you do, do you think it is a man made problem or a natural one? If not, why not?

Fucks sake
I've left my fucking wallet at home. I was considering buying the complete Arrested Development on the way home as well. And it's bacon & egg sarnie Friday.

Imagine how much frivolous spending I could avoid if I did that every day. Tell me your tales of gross stupidity, and share your tips for fiscal self-governance.

I've spent the whole day schluffing.
I've not done that in months, must have needed it, I still feel like a slooth, every movement seems laced with effort that isn't worth doing, including getting up to get some water. Sloths always look stonned to me.

I've got it in my head that I want a new phone now. I'm not sure how much it'll cost to cancel my account, but I've found I can move from o2 to Vodaphone with more than enough minutes/text/data for me, half of what I'm currently paying, the phone I want, £75 cashback, and a kindle wifi. o2 themselves don't do the phone I want, but can stay with o2 if I go via another company, but I can't do that a month early.

I think for dinner tonight, I'll have a bit of chinese, I really fancy lamb chops but I'm all sleepy and don't want to cook. Or maybe I should go for a kabab, a nice Cop Sis Iskalanda, that's small cubes of chard lamb in a tomarto'n'yoghurt sauce baked with bread. Maybe, I donno, so tired, can't think straight.

There is a bloke on the telly who just smothered a "Traditional british pasty", which looked like a cornish pasty only shaped differently, with ketchup. And now they're puring gravy over it. Strange Times.

Obligatory Question: If you were gonna get a take-out tonight, what would you get and from where?

What the fuck is wrong with you people?
Inspired by Chompy's suggestion in the previous thread...

So, I realised last night that there probably isn't a Krautrock band rehearsing near my house and that my tinnitus might (just might) be getting a little worse. What are your afflictions /offtopic?

Sportscow's autofellatio injury is well documented, b3th is inexplicably old beyond her years, The Luggage's terminal virginity. Tell us all about it so we can all have a good laugh at you.

According to the news report I've just heard
Steve Jobs has been compared to Einstein and Edison.

FUCK OFF. He was a great businessman and had great ideas and managed to sell people products that they didn't need and, in the case of the ipad, are actually entirely pointless but have now become somehow invaluable, but he didn't personally invent the fucking technology or come up with a new theory that changed the way we look at science.

Why is it, every time someone dies they can't just have been pretty good at something, or a nice person, they have to be the greatest example of what they did since some other iconic dead person.

I fucking hate people.

sometimes it's hard to think of a question
the same way it's hard to make conversation with some people.

so what do you think is the worst conversation killer? "when's it due?" "no thanks, i don't drink" ? "what's for lunch?" for me, i think the worst is: "so. what shall we talk about?"

alt: best conversational opener?

GO!

actually, before you GO! how do you lot spot new threads? do you click on "off topic" regularly? have two different windows open? realise that everyone else has fucked off?

Hooray! It's Thursday. A sure sign that it's nearly Friday.
Hooray! my mood is lifting. I hate feeling sorry for myself, it's so un-northern.

We have another business added to the family business empire and will soon take over the world. What are you going to do to appease me and thus earn my benevolance when this happens?

That thread is too long.
I'm entering a contest to win a scholarship and it's incredibly unlikely I will win, but can someone read my entry letter and tell me what they think please, I'll give you nothing in return. Cap'n is amazing for being the first responder.

OK, looks like we might be done with the rape thread. Probably no bad thing.
So, on a topic less likely to get B3ta on the front page of The Daily Mail, I saw Terry Gilliam on the street the other day, who's the best celeb you've spotted and where?

Alt: my colleague just sat at his desk dipping bread into hot camembert for lunch. It stinks. Should I tell him he's a selfish arse?

That thread is boring
so I'm going to have a small rant about twattish people who give shit customer service. Yes, DVLA, I'm looking at you.

They wanted me to change the photo on my licence, so I thought it would be a good opportunity to change my surname as well. Sent off the form, the photo, the marriage licence, the £20 fee, and what do I get back?
New licence, new photo, new signature, maiden name! Bunch of inbred flids.

EDIT: apparently you people can't handle a thread with no MAIN question, so here it is - who's given you staggeringly bad customer service recently?

Alt: Why are people so shit?

I once saw Rob say that Off Topic posts 5x as many posts as /talk but only half the threads
and just looking at your popular page vs theirs I can see that yours doesn't seem to change as quickly.

Is it because you're all dull or are you just stingey with clicks?

WTF?
My Gf has just got in a right strop with me saying I'm a "ponce" and gay cos I decided wanted 2 glasses of red wine after work this evening! Apparently you can only drink wine if you're middle aged or gay. And cos I'm only 21 and not gay (though maybe the girlfriend is just a front and I'm in denial?? I mean, I drink wine, I must be according to her rules) she's got really pissed off with me. Just wanted a rant, feel free to agree with her, any chance call someone gay on here isn't usually passed up
