It's not going to bite you.

What you do, right, is you take a sharp knife
and slit into your wrist. Once the blood starts flowing, drip it directly into the AC socket of your laptop. This will appease the gods of data, and your machine will start working again.

You have to be quick though, otherwise you might find yourself getting a bit light-headed...

What you have to do is repeatedly smash your little finger with a hammer
until it fits into the USB port - then all the pictures will appear in your mind. Then all you have to do is plug a mic into your new laptop, got to 'my pictures' and just describe them into the mic, and they'll appear.

Finally, kill yourself.

I really am struggling to muster up the will to leave my bed each morning.
Only the 'emotional hardcore' music genre holds any pleasure for me these days.

Their aggressive technological dance-rock hybrid really addresses the homework-based woes of the small-town teenager of today.

Wow they sound 'uber-cool',
That's like 'super-cool', but with a teutonic, industrial twist. Like that brilliant band 'Rammstein' who are in no way complete tossers.

Everything just piling up?
Have you seen your daughter recently?

I hear Plumdozer might be able to help you with recommendations there

I saw her on Saturday night/Sunday morning
but was not allowed to take her to Oxford to see my cretinous pater. This upset me, work is melting my mind and Lusty's going away for a fortnight on Saturday. Boo, but also, hoo.

Any luck looking for work? I'd give you a job but I really like you and I'd rather things stayed that way.
(, Mon 8 Aug 2011, 17:09, Reply)
That's a bugger with the Oxford trip
very small-minded of your ex, given that your dad is in the UK so infrequently.

No luck with work, nowhere wants someone with a 2.ii. It's messing my mind up a little bit. Oh well.

I got a 2:ii, and I'm apparently unemployable

so did I
but then I did a largely useless subject so I'd have been unemployable with a 1st

Patience, my dear.
Where are you looking (as in which town/city)?

Bristol or London
Bristol because I have basically free accommodation, London because it's where I want to be
