Dilemma.
I'm tempted to get a Chinese this evening, but I always end up spending a fortune on food as ordering Chinese for one is a bit of a science.

If you were getting a Chinese for one, what would you order?

Alt: I think my mate has caught gayness, he doesn't want to go to the pub because it's cold, wet and windy out. Have any of your friends ever caught it, and if so, how long do the symptoms last?

Deep fried shredded beef and fried rice is what I usually stick to.
I'm assuming you are talking about Chinese food, and not Chinese prozzies.

It's funny because
if you go for a Chinese prozzie, it's very nice and stuff but after ten minutes you fancy another one.

Oi!
Happily married man, here Jeff.

Yeah, food.
Shredded beef is nice, but it's quite sweet and as much as I like it, I feel obliged to order something a bit more sour to go with it.

This is how I manage to spend too much on a takeout.

SIngapore noodles and fried egg rice.
but maybe not the noodles anymore. I think I had an allergy to the last lot that I ate :( about an hour after I finished my skin started getting unbearably itchy all over.
So in that case, vegetable noodles and fried egg rice.


Symptoms last into old age.

Yes, but think of all the curry.
Trufact: At the height of their original bout of fame, all five members of Take That called into my local curry house after a gig at Whitley Bay Ice Rink.

I know this to be true because I lived in a flat on the same block and was awoken at 1am by screaming, sopping knickered teenagers wanting to sample Robbie's lamb bhuna.

How did your current housemate take the news?

How about this, the landlady/housemate whatever, has been telling people for months that she's going to ask us to leave when she gets a new job, but hasn't said anything to us.
So yesterday she tells me she thinks the other housemate is looking for a place to move to but hasn't told her about it. She seemed upset by this.
So I told her "WELL, people have been telling us for months that you're going to ask us to leave, so yes I imagine she is looking for a place to move to. I haven't been looking much but I will start."
*utter silence*

Oooh.
Well played. You've batted the issue right back to the landlady.

Are you expecting further conversations on the subject?
(, Fri 4 Feb 2011, 19:07, Reply)
not really, we talked a bit more about it, she seemed more upset about people telling us than us knowing
she says we will remain friends but I don't see it happening
and I told her to just figure out when she wants us out and to tell us
she said she felt bad because she knew I wouldn't have a place to go and I told her I try to be fair and look at it from her perspective, it's not her problem I don't have a place to go, it's my problem
I'm going to start packing and cleaning and looking, and I guess the only other conversation will be "I'll be out by this date"

She is shit. She should have told you as soon as she started thinking about it.

Special chow mein can be magnificent
But it can be very poor, with overcooked prawns. That's the reason I tend to stick to chicken, it's reliable.

What? I was typing away and it went, I'm not typing it all out again, but I made a spreadsheet based on how good I was for the week at stuff.
Really Cheap, a lunchtime special in the evening which is half rice/noodles and half a main.
Medium: a 'lunchtime C' which is a half rice/noodle, full mains and a prawn crackers or pancake roll

Combinations I like are
- Crispy Beef + noodles
- Thai style chicken, chicken in batter, and rice.
- Sweet'n'sour prawn and rice
- A romantic duck, 1/4
- Mixed Starters + Hoe Sin sauce
- Seaweed, always love the seaweed, love that shit, lap it up.
- Kun Po Chicken with the chicken in batter.

Overlooked stuff that I should get in on
- Lemon chicken
- Salt'n'Pepper Squid

If it's at the end of a day and I just want to have something without becoming really really fat.
- Salt'n'Pepper been curd + sweet'n'sour sauce (small) + a soup.

If there is more [rice/noodles/chips] portians than main dishes then I get angry, it's the wrong ratio.
