I rarely eat anything that isn't spicy now, food tastes too bland when it doesn't have a bit of a kick to it.
What's upsetting is that 90% of the Thai restaurants I've been to in the UK tone the spice down. I got used to proper, full spice Thai food in Thailand, and now I have to pay ten times the price to get something with a fraction of the kick/taste.
Thankfully my Da' cooks amazing Thai food ;)

I know what you mean, although I've tried to ration my chili intake for fear of not finding my favourite foods interesting without that kick. But I'm still getting through one standard bottle of tabasco a week, and a few fresh chilis.

Evening V-Cat.
There's a Mexican restaurant hereabouts to which my parents took my sister for her birthday last year, so I was there too. Having been in numerous good Mexican restaurants in he US, I was expecting it to be good.
It was actually quite good, but it was also very bland. I had to cut up the chillis on the garnish and mix them in just to get a bit of kick into the food!

( , Mon 16 Feb 2009, 8:28, Reply)

@V-cat - if you manage to visit the USA, it's full of really good Mexican restaurants. I assume it's because there's quite a large immigrant Mexican population, in the same way as we in the UK are spoiled for choice with Indian curry houses because we have quite a large Indian population here.
The rule about Mexican food though is that it's really all the same ingredients. The only differences are geometric. The topology of the meal varies, but the substance is the same!

all the same ingredients the only difference is topographic.

Ooo, Asian vs Oriental, I had a debate with my tattooist and his wife about this (while being tattood).
She claimed that Oriental was a mildly offensive term, and the correct term was Asian. The tattooist and myself said Asian included, well, all those from Asia, while Oriental refers to China, Japan, Thailand etc.

Bought myself a cheap runabout for the moment though until I find a suitable replacement for the beast.

with someone you already know. But if she's a colleague, and things go tits up, it could be awkward working with her every day.
I second Kaol's advice.

or a purple.
What the hell is a purple? Is it like an orange? Why would you wear a purple orange?
:edit: I don't really know any of them any better than the others and for some reason I don't see the work thing as an issue but I suppose that's because I've never had a messy or even a particularly awkward break up.

You would say "one thing or the other" not "one thing or the other thing".

I may have fucked it up by having 3 terms and having the "thing" on the first AND third term.

Which I think would be a big S just different enough from Superman's so I wouldn't get sued.

I've finally finished my expenses forms and have just posted them to head office, I've spent 4,222 quid on this company since October!
Hopefuly I'll get that soon so I can pay the credit card people before they send in the heavy mob!
Edit: Oh, is that the Sam signal? I thought it was the slack off all afternoon signal!

What makes it even sadder is that we've been gazzing each other too.

because there is no one else in my department as one is "sick" and the other is taking holiday for what sounded like a bullshit reason and my boss had to leave at lunchtime to "work from home" because she had forgot to put water down for her dog which means I am fielding all the phone calls for reacredditation which I know nothing about and when I phone my boss to ask she makes me feel stupid for not already knowing the answer.
I have no fucking idea how the stupid fucking thing works and I'm annoyed. As an understatement.

I just had an Officially Mandated Work Smoke as part of our "my boss is friends with a smoker who is having a bad day" policy.

seems to be working quite well.
Well, except when I meet up with b3tans anyway!
( , Mon 16 Feb 2009, 16:17, Reply)

I am mostly blaming the b3tans.
At least I am doing ok with downgrading to mildly drunk, rather than the full-on asleep-in-the-gutter-covered-in-my-own-sick drunk I was previously focussing on.

It's still too much, but I stayed in on Friday AND Saturday night! I even did some chores. With the help of some wine.

Cut down the amount of "drinking on my own after work" by about 90%.
Although I'm cooking Pörkölt tonight, which mean I need to open a bottle of red wine...

and if I want to stop waking up in the bath, or losing my possesions and dignity around the town, then I have to cut down further.

he accosted me at the bus stop again at the weekend to ask for change. Naturally I refused. He then went off on a little rant about how he didn't believe that no-one at the bus stop had any money until a chav girl countered with "You calling me a liar, blud?". Then he tried to go to Sainsbury's, but shockingly the security guard wouldn't let him in.
The whole time his nice black velvet jacket was covered with snail-trails of his own snot.

I think dignity is like those "X days since last accident" signs. So you can have lots of dignity then you throw up on a girl in a pub and you have 0 dignity. But the following week you may have a bit of dignity, the next week a bit more, and so on until you have lots again.
This is why I never have more than 1 dignity.
Edit: this made me laugh so hard I weed a little.
*little man changes sign back to 0*
