  1. The alternative way to look at public sector cuts (which I just thought of) is that we just freed up half a million souls for use in the proper economy - you know - making money.
  2. Walsingham replied to Gorth's topic in Way Off-Topic
    Sounds fun. I may read it.
  3. If you die because you played FONV instead of going to hospital I promise you right now I am going to piss on your grave.
  4. Yes, I know.. But it's one hell of an advantage for fapping! ROFL
  5. I'm not allowing myself to buy it until I get a new contract for at least one of my team.
  6. I'm saving Kelly Brook in 3d for if I have a serious crisis of morale.
  7. Far as I know: 1. This 2. Kids filming beatings 3. Abu Ghraib Uniformly ****ed up.
  8. Well if all we can do is hope you ain't bleeding in the brain then I guess that's what we'll do. Just don't forget bloody Sand.
  9. Doesn't make it OK.
  10. You;re clearly not going to go see the doc on this occasion, but you really should. Head injuries can do all kinds of nasty stuff you don't even realise is going on until they smack you flat.
  11. Gratz Wals.. To round out how my week is going.. Friday arrived. The doorbell went early. I leapt up to answer it..made it to the door of the room I was in..and suddenly, for no reason that I can understand.. I found myself falling backwards. I bounced my head off the floor loud enough to startle everyone in the house. My neck is now having a joyful throbbing ache, a quite amazing bruise on the back of my head, about three seperate patches of grazes along one arm (again, no clue how that happened), that headbang induced sick feeling and as I realise the pleasantness of Fallout New Vegas having arrived.. I find out the family has volunteered my services as a physical labourer to help a family friend shift things this morning... I hate t osay this, but anything like a concussion should be checked by a doctor. At least this should get you off heavy lifting.
  12. 1. Although my natural tendency is to avoid women in bars ever since those Laotian twins stole my kidney, I am nonetheless intrigued by her hostility. It sets my heart beating like the blades of a huey on a sultry night. I wait until she goes to the bar to buy a club soda and campari, then spring the ambush "the Zulus have a word for for a woman like "Kuong trang naz vedkya" it means she who loves with a thousand knives." She will search for a stinging rebuke, and while she is doing so I will stab a jacknife into the bar top within her reach, and lean back with an implicit challenge. 2. At the beginning of our date I will say "I know a woman like yourself won't need walking home, but there's a lot of scum out there. Some day a real rain will come and wash all the scum off the street, but in the meantime here is a thermal detonator." 3. Unlike that pansy, Lincoln I don't destroy my enemies by making them my friends. I welcome her hostility as the honest compliment it is. I know the brutality of man better than any other, and if she hates me for being a man that just makes me love her more. 4. I will simply address her as 'colonel'.
  13. Once again, I understand not doing anything*. It's taking photos instead of doing something which I find insane. *I don't condone it, but I get it.
  14. Pleased to report that in spite of being laid up for the best part of a week, my diet and no booze seem to be having an effect. I'm still a tubby bastard, but my torso doesn't actually bulge any more! Took my belt in a notch also.
  15. I wouldn't say you ask for it, but if you play well with others you often get extras without asking.
  16. I like Slowtrain's notion of a paycut across the whole sector, in so far as it is unlikely to result in people jumping ship to seek higher wages elesehwre at the moment. On the other hand, a high earner taking a 20% hit can just cut their foreign holidays and sell the car. I low income earner is likely to be disposing of almost all their income already.
  17. Thought this was worth posting. Hope it doesn't qualify as spam.
  18. Walsingham replied to Krookie's topic in Way Off-Topic
    I like the track, contrasting the urgency of the voice with the surf. Where did you get the mayday?
  19. I think we are goin gto need our own bespoke euphemsims, if we are going to get through the rude bits of this game.
  20. You have obviously lost awareness of the sheer giddy magic involved in being able to flick a switch and make light. It's almost godlike. Just think of the thusands of years of societal and engineering evolution required to make it happen. Then think we may be one of only a few generations who will ever enjoy it. Leaving a light burning isn't an empty gesture of absent mindedness. It is a heroic gesture of pride, resonating in the darkness of eternity like the tolling of a great brass bell.
  21. I like to think that for our many other faults, we aren't so ****ing stupid as to think burning cars sticks it to the Man. It just burns some poor sods car. But in reality we're probably just too pig lazy to go out and do anything at all. I actually think the handling of the carriers - given that they couldn't be cancelled - is pretty smart. We don't need a fast jet carrier for at least a few years, so delay that component. When we do get one, having one going spare is pretty smart. It means we can actually send the real one out on missions without being terrified of losing our only carrier. Then, if we can somehow get the second carrier to function as an amphibious HQ with helicopters and whatnot then hurray. What I don't understand is all this waffle about how support to Afghan will not be compromised. We are getting a handful of helis, and cutting thousands of infantry. We need those sodding infantry in Afghan! What I still don't understand is why the only people who haven't been hurt by this financial crisis are the ***-stained ****ers who got us into it. Whack a two year levy on the bastards. Not long enough in duration to make it worthwhile leaving the country, but squeeze the juice out of them.
  22. I can only suppose it speaks of a total failure of empathy. Combined with an absence of any codified sense of propriety. Gives me the heebiejeebies.
  23. I'm pleased to report that Steam will have to whistle for my custom I told them accidentally that January this year was my birthday, and now I'm not allowed to view the purchase screen. Clearly a child of only ten months can't be allowed to buy things on the internets. Wankers.
  24. He's probably on the lam. Hiding in racoon nests by day.
  25. Well.. to add to your worries.. isn't she ethically bound not to date you whilst you're still her patient? So to date her you have to lose her physio services... Tough. I haven't fallen for someone this fast in years. I'm running with it.
