Playing Age of Empires 2 last night
Me and a computer ally against my flatmate and his computer ally. I'm bloody well cool, eh?
Anyway, about halfway through, my ally Louis XVI decides he's had enough and just resigns out of the blue, leaving me to get battered. It would appear even virtual people don't get on with me.

When's the last time you've been fucked over by a machine?

I got a Snickers from a vending machine and somehow it gave me two of them!

I donno what the law here is, but I *think* they've agreed to the transaction and therefore it's valid.
0o0o0o0oh, there must be a scam there by doing it on a bigger scale.

'swipe, if you're about, is it true that "If you go to into a shop for 3 mars bars at 50p each, and they charge you £1 for the total, that the third marsbar that they didn't charge you is still yours" ?

Aye, but if it was a person on the till who did the same thing, the transaction would be valid (I think), therefore it's not your fault (maybe) and there would be a scam there to get free stuff like that (probably).

Dogs eating shit
can often be a sign that they aren't getting enough nutrients from the diet they are on. Might be worth trying to supplement it with something?

I dislike being expected to do this

oyster card
i can't renew the bitch online because apparently i have registered it already even though i haven't. because i so often get taxis/walk i then forget about it and it is inevitably 8.30am rush hour on a monday morning when i then end up being booted out of the swingy things and stuck at the very back of the top-up queue. and the first thing it says when i touch it is "you have an unregistered oyster card"... ffs.

anyway, the fucked over bit comes because as i put £50 on there yesterday, the machine went black and died. so my card got debited but no £50 on my oystercard. i then had to Q for another 15 mins at the counter and am trusting them to refund me. thieving gits.

If only there was a way to register your oyster card.

there is no way to register MY oyster card
because every time i try, it says "this card is already registered to another email account". NO IT ISN'T OTHERWISE I WOULD BE TOPPING UP ONLINE.

i keep meaning to turn it in for a new one which i can then register, but life's too short.

Completely unrelated note, but need to vent: the band I was considering quitting have just driven the nail into their own coffin - I've just found out they want to play a Libertines cover at their next gig.
