Morning all
I tried to read A Game of Thrones yesterday but only lasted one paragraph. 'Lordlings'? Fuck off.

I also had the misfortune to take my kid to a 'fun' fair, or 'Gyppo death trap'. I haven't seen anything so tawdry and depressing since the last time I went to The North. I hated them as a child too, mind you, so it was never going to end well.

When were you last a supercilious snob?

I was going to post on a message board, but something calling itself "Boyce" was already on there, so...

Yo Monts.
I also hate fairgrounds, rip off cunts. We have the largest one in the country first week in Oct. The crime rate goes up substantially.

I'm snobbish by avoiding Chav type places.

This one was really fucking grim.
Rusting, shabby old equipment painted with airbrushed Disney characters so poorly executed that their total lack of licensing from Disney was no problem at all, as you could have successfully argued that the similarity between the actual characters and the downsy, Simon Weston-faced abominations on these fucking things was so tenuous as to be merely coincidental.

Ghastly.

Last time I went to the "Goose Fayre" my son was only about 4
Looking at this mini-helter-skelter, I asked how much "£2.50" I was told, "OK how many goes" answer 1....Fuck Off.

I went to a National Trust property and kept thinking to myself what a tacky job they'd done of the garden.

Also, it was only built in the 1920s, I felt a bit cheated about the whole 'National Trust' thing.

Star Trek! I can't wait to tell little Enterprise and Borg that the Internet is having another discussion on it
I don't know why they are arguing, they are clearly both shit for many many reasons.
( Peej, Mon 10 Jun 2013, 8:31, Reply)

I'm trying to avoid that, as sadly I have somewhat of an opinion on it
Although, that stems almost entirely from spending hungover weekends watching it.

If your opinion isn't "Star Trek is Shit" then its invalid

I also hate "fair grounds" mainly because of the thieving gypos
but also cos a kid was killed at a local one when I was at collage and it stuck with me. www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2000/may/29/4 I went to a steam fair in Englefield Green in my late teens, looked quite good from afar but once your in there getting short changed by some toothless pikey scumbag it loses its charm. I have however read all the A Song of Ice and Fire books so far and enjoyed them all. I was last a snob when I refused to buy from a shop based purely on the fact they had an flag flying outside with a stikethrough EU logo and a large UKIP poster on the wall. It wasn't necessarily their politics, it was more the way they were displaying it. It just seemed extremely common.

A friend of mine is Indonesian, but moved over here when she was 5
First time she went to a theme park, she was queuing up to go on her first ever rollercoaster, and then this happened a few feet in front of her.

She's still never been on a rollercoaster.

The wrong moment being when the ride was running

Morning, Boyce
I was reading a Pratchett this weekend, going to try and finish it tonight. There's a character in Game Of Thrones that you might like, he's essentially Battered, but funny.

I had a rather nice weekend thank you, including a fantastic meal yesterday. Aside from surrounding yourself with poverty (as per usual), how was your weekend?
( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Mon 10 Jun 2013, 8:30, Reply)

Now thats really not fair
for two reasons. One the character in question is a lot taller than Battered and two, the prostitute he murders isn't Polish.
( Peej, Mon 10 Jun 2013, 8:33, Reply)

Saw a collection of his best lines from series one and two the other day, he does seem excellent
The downside is that I'm aware of most of the plot due to friends talking about it, so I still can't motivate myself to actually watch past the second episode, despite the fact I'm sure I'll enjoy it.
( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Mon 10 Jun 2013, 8:36, Reply)

I read them all then watched them all then watched them all again
and he is by far the best character
( Peej, Mon 10 Jun 2013, 8:37, Reply)

I tried watching it a while back, just couldn't really get into it
I tended to watch more light hearted stuff at the time, so I think that was probably part of it.

Will have to give it another go soon, then just need to wait for Breaking Bad to return in August.

EDIT: Also, Suits starts again next month, that should be good.
