Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight I've been infected with the MEH
and I can't be fucked to do ANYTHING apart from breathe and occasionally cram toast into my apathetic face. How do you motivate yourself to get shit done? Are you motivated by the carrot, or the stick? I've always wondered about that phrase. What would you replace the carrot and the stick with?

I was motivated on my diet at first by realising how nice salads from Subway can be (retarded, I know)
Then, after a month of those, I went out for the night, seeing some people I'd not seen in a while, and was told how much better I was looking, which gave me a massive confidence boost.

Basically, I ended up motivating myself, because the compliments were awesome, and I wanted them to carry on. As a result, I weighed myself at the weekend, and I'm less than 11 stone again, which I'm rather pleased with. Still a long way to go, I need to limit myself to 3 munchy boxes per week, but I'm still pleased with the results so far.

she's not an entertaining mental though
just bitter and mean. She seems to have a real hatred of Gonz and Roota as well which is just absurd

I hope she gets dizzy from lack of food, passes out and wakes to find that her surviving cat has eaten her left hand.

That thread is quite harsh...

It's only harsh because she started off with a crap story about something she really doesn't have to share
and that's if it's actually true, that woman has so many screws loose she might as well come in a packet from B&Q.

It does.
But nowadays even my beer gut's a bit on the small side. And my hair can't be that heavy. Not that I'm concerned, but if I had to lose some weight then I don't know where I'd lose it from.

Right now, I only want to cry
I'm working on this massive simulation. Doing a job that should have taken me 30 min. However, I can only do one change at a time. One change, run the simulation, get results, another change, run the simulation, program crashes, close program, open program, one change... like that all day. All day. Really, I don't know what's wrong with this, as it's not even my simulation, but this is killing me.

The best simulation I've ever seen was F-19 Stealth Fighter on the Atari ST. Have you seen that one?
I crashed a lot but my mate and I used to take turns on the joystick and sometimes we'd drop a bomb on those pesky Russian SAM sites.

Yeah, I looked into ST Emulators briefly
after I found you could also download Captain Blood in the same format.

Unfortunately the only Em I could find seemed to require installing hardware and suddenly it seemed like too much effort.

For me, it would be enough if it still had all the original music and sound effects
And yes, I know it was written by Jean Michel Jarre, but the title music to that game was superb. Partly because it used to scare the shit out of me when my father first bought the game.

You can get Gameboy emulators very easily

Sensible move. If you have an alcoholocaust pending, preparing yourself for it as best you can makes complete sense. It also makes you a lightweight, but I'll overlook this because I fancy you.

Last Sonisphere
my brother decided he was going to be an adult and took a shooting stick and boxes of red wine to avoid being a lager-swilling oik. Unfortunately his plan unravelled after a couple of days when he decided it would be 'funny' to remove the wine from its box, stick the bag down his trousers and have the tap sticking out of his fly, generating what he genuinely believed to be extreme lols wherever he went.

He is 40.
