Isn't it quiet on here of an evening these days
What are you all up to?

I'm drinking and conquering Europe... Online!

Thought Mona would have got further
And don't think that was a fair dismissal.

Still think James to win.

True dat.
I just wish that bloody Lorraine would get fired. :(
( Devil_In_Tights the *real* DiT!, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:19, Reply)

Yes
She's got to go.

Howard has to go.

Fish - faced Debbie has to go.

After that it's anyone's game.

Don't judge me harshly. Apprentice is the ONLY TV show that I ever watch without fail. I worked with people like them. I recruited people like them.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:28, Reply)

I think that's it.
I used to work in recruitment - all of them to a man were Apprentice wannabes. I think I only watch it so I can feel superior. \o/

The only reality show I watch
is Hells Kitchen US. I love watching people who think they can cook spend 5 minutes with Gordon Fucking Ramsey.

He's a cock but I love watching him swear at Americans.

There's a similar one with Marco Pierre White.
His cod philosophy vs. American idiots = genius.

I'm concentrating on getting as drunk as possible
Posting in QOTW is normally carthetic but now I just want to forget some of the things I've read.

Read mine!
it's a tale of triumphing over adversity.

I like your story.
It has cheered me up. Thankyou!

Whenever I think I can't do something I think of that.

Steering clear this week
so I'll probably be being a bit of a twat round here instead.

Yeah....
There's some funny ones there. A few. Mostly it seems to be a series of the worst things people can do to each other, and the damage it does.

Is it?
I feel atavistically compelled to log on first thing Sunday to talk to Blaireau69 and Vampyrecat.

Other than that - the nights are light so we're out and about.

My infrequent visits will be even more infrequent until it's too dark to see the black dog in the woods.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Wed 13 May 2009, 21:42, Reply)

I'm full of post-bowling Mexican food
flat out and ready for bed.

OT's always been quiet in the evenings!

Drinking
to numb the pain of the bloody wisdom tooth.

Wisdom my arse.

I'm going to bed now, night night all.

I've been
Cable-tying bacon to things, and smoking.
( Cawl, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:10, Reply)

I hope you got some on a PETA activist
I really do.
(Potty Jag har smör i min rumpspringa, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:15, Reply)

Er, no, sorry.
It's in a tree now though.
( Cawl, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:19, Reply)

Oh well
No difference really.
(Potty Jag har smör i min rumpspringa, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:29, Reply)

Yeah, the way I see it,
The night-creatures (tree-foxes or something?) get a salty treat.
( Cawl, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:32, Reply)

Yes
But what does the bacon have to do with it?
(Potty Jag har smör i min rumpspringa, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:38, Reply)

Shhhhh!
The RSPCA will be after me again :(
( Cawl, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:41, Reply)

Bacon
is the ur-meat and hence is de rigeur for any experiments in "fringe" science.
( The Light in Chains don't touch the Pope's boner, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:49, Reply)

"ur"?
Nah, I'm using it 'cos it's closest to human meat, in terms of shop-available fleshes.
( Cawl, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:52, Reply)

What's "ur", though?
All I can think of is "Universal Requirement" :\
( Cawl, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:53, Reply)

Man
nobody gets classical references these days.

Ur was the first city.

so Ur-something is shorthand for the first of something or the Platonic Form of it.
( The Light in Chains don't touch the Pope's boner, Wed 13 May 2009, 22:59, Reply)

Can only think of one reference
The chronicles of Thomas Covenant (weird books they are), where ur signifies as above all else eg. Covenant is the ur-Lord, therefore the master of all Lords of Magic.
(Potty Jag har smör i min rumpspringa, Wed 13 May 2009, 23:00, Reply)

Thomas Covenant?
The ones about the land? And he has the white gold magic? And leprosy? I read some of them when I was littler. From what I remember they where realy good.
(Fredz A graveyard of hopes, a dump of ambition, Wed 13 May 2009, 23:03, Reply)

There's a new series
the third. Not bad. Not as much clenching as the first two.
( The Light in Chains don't touch the Pope's boner, Wed 13 May 2009, 23:04, Reply)

I like them
They're strange, but good. I'm waiting until he has finished all of the third set until reading them. I'll probably hit all then books in one shot.
(Potty Jag har smör i min rumpspringa, Wed 13 May 2009, 23:14, Reply)

Ah!
That makes ur-sense now, thanks.
Which classical stuff is that from?
If it's Roman, I'm gonna be ashamed of myself.
( Cawl, Wed 13 May 2009, 23:02, Reply)

Ur was Babylonian I think...
Sort of around where Iran/Iraq is today. I think.
(Fredz A graveyard of hopes, a dump of ambition, Wed 13 May 2009, 23:03, Reply)

Mess of Potamia, as the Daily Show has it.
But nobody googled "ur prefix" ? Shame on you.
( The Light in Chains don't touch the Pope's boner, Wed 13 May 2009, 23:05, Reply)

ur, right.
My knowledge only really extends to Roman and Greek.
And stupid Cryptozoology stuff.
( Cawl, Wed 13 May 2009, 23:08, Reply)

I switched
from conquering Europe to online poker.

I played a couple of tournaments with $1 buy-ins and got nowhere - I took $50 to the ring tables and turned it into $200. Oh god here we go again.
