Films are good to calm down to
As are computer games, but only if you don't then lose constantly.

I love that bit in Spaced where Tim is playing Tomb Raider
and Mike goes "is she meant to be drowning?" and he says "depends what mood you're in"

Haha! Now I need to watch Spaced again.

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?

You're entitled to your wrong opinion

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'.

is that the idea?
that's not how I saw it

I believe so.
'God - I play video games too!'
'Oh God when they go to that nightclub it's just sooo fuuuny'
'comics are cool'
'they just referenced Star Wars - how cool'
'I like the way he's got a skateboard and smokes dope - that's so cool'

etc.

I don't mind her
Wouldn't though.

She'd ring you up loads afterwards and not get the message.

That is spot on
Top observation.

No I actually agree with you, I hate Daisy
but I think the other characters make up for her.

De-stressing
Go for a walk in the sun.
Have a hot shower.
Gorge on nice food.

Shout at someone.
Use lots of swear words.
Add violence if desired.

Erm...
I was saying hello, and asking how you were?

But that means you want me to respond...
aren't we at war because you're annoyed with me being all mean?

You stopped being mean to me
And I love you too much to be annoyed with you.
(, Wed 25 Aug 2010, 17:36, Reply)
Of course I stopped being mean to you...I haven't spoken to you in a week.
Apparently I was 'always threatening violence'.

You were!
Anyway, must dash, love you!

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.
(, Wed 25 Aug 2010, 17:01, Reply)
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.
(, Wed 25 Aug 2010, 17:04, Reply)
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 tried Boxing on the Wii once
Nearly dislocated my shoulder.

this, but for Super Mario Bros when Wiggy makes me die.
And there's a game called geowars or something. So addictive.
(, Wed 25 Aug 2010, 17:15, Reply)
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!

play as a girl then
duh
(, Wed 25 Aug 2010, 17:40, Reply)
oh man
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.

sounds good, I think I'm going to be in on bank holiday monday if you want.
I think I've sent you my friend code already.

yeah, that'd be cool
I'll try and set something up with my mates as well

we shall discuss this nearer the time. as well as how to avoid the inevitable clash between you and the current Mrs V

That could get awkward
Mrs V and Kitty battling on Rainbow Road, bananas flying, turtle shells careening around the track...

along the lines of 'palpable and violent tension'

especially when I pwn her ass.
I hope she plays as Princess Peach, that will make it easier for me to dislike her.

she tends to play as Donkey Kong
