Still raging?
People, you need to calm down and relax and smile.

What do you do when you're very stressed? Do you shout? Walk up and down? Smoke?

I usually shout a lot, but it makes me worse. It helps me do exercise or watch something funny on TV.

True story, we just got about 1000 different plants in our field, all sorts of stuff, pomigranit, citrus, bugonvilias or whatever they're called.
It's about 1/3 of an aker (1 donom, for your turkish people), and was lined with the plants and had plants in different spots in the middle.

A week afterwards, a farmer came through with an entire herd (must have been a good 100 or soo) goats, and they killed half the plants.

We probably could have sued him, but at most we would have gotten was the goats and his house, which is not much more than a brick shed with no electricity, and we wouldn't know what to do with the goats.

I like to think how different my life would be if someone else was my flatmate, sometimes it's someone from here, sometimes it's someone famous.
For example, if Chompy was one of my flatmates, he would take the medium sized room. I think I would get home from work before him, so I'll get dinner on, I think tonight he would like some kind of soup. We would sit around watching telly in the evening or going out for a drink, I'd get in with his friends and visa-versa. I like the idea of living with NHS staff, they're generally a good sort of people.

I think on the weekend we'd go to Crews Hill to look at the plants, but next weekend he'll be going back to his 'rents for his dad's birthday. I might have Julien 'round then, 'cus I never see him because chompy once called him a ginger prick and julien didn't take to kindly to that. But I would make sure Chompy is deffo going anyway. I'm not sure if I would rent off him, or visa-versa.

Just for the record there, I was going for the creepy loanly guy look, donno why exactly.
It's not something I actually do.

Another creepy thing I did once, because I found it funny.
Was to look at friend-of-b3tan-friend on facebook, pick someone at random, look at their feeds/photos if they were public and pretend to know them and that it was all a coincidance. As a result of that, people didn't find it funny at all and deleted me.

sad times.

I sometimes wonder if I'm wired up differently in the head than most people, I think I might be.

I find it funny now that you've told me about it

Heh, when I did it, I made up most of the details myself, like I would see a picture of them at the beech entitled "Me and Sarah in Thailand", and I'd concot a story about it being their honey moon and them having a fantastic Pad Thai.
It was more creepy when the made up stuff turned out not to far off the truth.

I have a coffee and go and do something else
if I'm stressed after work I make Wiggy take me to the cinema.

And dancing really calms me down as well, it's a great stress reliever.

I love dancing when I'm upset
Eating crisps or pizza make me feel really good, but then I get upset with myself for eating too much.

cheesecake cheers me up when I'm sad
but food doesn't help when I'm angry. Dancing is awesome though, I tend to be braver if I'm angry, not sure why, but it means I can do the death defying tricks where I wouldn't normally dare.

Don't bother - it's really not very good.
I realise I am in a huge minority for thinking this - even my brother likes it - but the main female character is in particular fucking appalling. Shit, shit acting from her and a lame script trying to be 'cult' by referencing fucking Star Wars.

Actually has anyone got any de-stressing tips?

Thank you. I know that am almost entirely alone in holding this particular one.
That girl's stupid voice and face really fucking piss me off. The suggestion is that you might want to be mates with them - or see your own life reflected in theirs - both of which are so phenomenally far off the mark in my case as to render the entire programme pointless.

I just see 'stupid tossers acting like stupid tossers'.

'they just referenced Star Wars - how cool'

sometimes they make me angry
we got BoomBlox for the Wii and I have an unfortunate habit of throwing like a girl on it, so Mrs V was beating me at it. That made me angry.

I agreed to play against Em at Wii Sport
She's had practice, I hadn't. I had to stop getting angry when she kept beating me at tennis or boxing, which wasn't made easy by her constantly laughing or shouting "HA! IN YOUR FACE!" when she scored a point.

I thrashed her at Golf, Bowling and with a belt though.

haha, your last line caught me by surprise :-)
I can't play boxing, I suck at it.

unfortunately my mrs beat me at Mariokart the other day. I was not pleased. I have to try really hard to hide my fury. She'd be shocked if she knew.

It's usually anger at myself though, particularly with Boom Blox, cos I just couldn't do it right, even though I have before. Fortunately I sorted it in the end, but she almost doubled my score :-(

I suck at Boxing too
I try to be precise, but the punches go way off where I aim them. So I try flailing (Em's preferred tactic), but end up knackered, beaten, and having whipped myself in the eye with the nunchuck cord.

I know of it, but haven't played it.
Em and I also play WoW together, although recently she's getting insanely good luck with loot drops, while I've been unlucky for ages. Plus, because she's a Real Life Girl, a few guys she knows online give her items and gold, whereas I work fucking hard for mine!

I've got that, but have only played it two or four player with my mrs and some mates who are frankly retards. Having some bastard bouncing off your head at a crucial moment is massively massively annoying.

Played some Kart over WFC the other day, it was ace. We should have a race. Some mates and my mrs are up for it, so we should sort something out.
