Be Excellent To Each Other

There is absolutely no need for shiny toilet paper in this day and age. If someone had that in their house, I'd pee on the floor and then dry myself on their pillow.

I have spent the last 2.5hrs wrapping presents.....next year people can just have them in the cardboard boxes they arrived in. Or I won't buy presents, which does seem like the most logical thing to do. I hate even thinking about how much all of this has cost me. I'm such a dick.

GIN GIN GIN GIN GIN WOOP WOOP WOOP WOOP

Wow, MrsA is right, you actually do look Brentish with that facial hair Mali.....

Not with the ZX Printer being so long obsolete, no.

As you know munchkin Santa's elves make the presents, this year santa has decided that the elves are not getting the credit they deserve so now each elf writes his or her name in big letters on the box so you know who made it just for you. Looks like the elf that made yours this year was called "amazon", he sounds lovely do you think he lives in a jungle when it's not Christmas?

Ah, your children are younger than mine.....but I love how easily you come up with these lies, it's brilliant! There is nothing as satisfying as having someone believe every word you say. Now, if I tried that with mine, they'd probably say "Whatever, dick."

It was a good movie! Beautifully filmed, wonderful costuming, stunning scenery and Scarlett Johansson.

If you say the code words "Shane Warne" to grandad his original programing kicks in and he will kill all humans.

Edit forgot one: Your eyebrows turn pink when you tell lies.

I love you.

Some T-shirts for Grim...



Ordered yesterday lunchtime from http://www.ubertorso.com - now that's fucking fast delivery, and no mistake.

Changing PSU now hopefully the technology gods are looking fondly down upon me this night, and don't worry I've done my jewelcrafting daily.

god damn it

opened package went "ru row"



fitted it, everything was good, then I turned PC on and got *flash bang*. changed fuse in kettle lead put old psu back in, opened ticket to overclockers. I'm actually thinking that the new ram may be bad as well, given the state of the new psu's box. Got different Corsair ram coming via mail as the intention is to get 8GB going in there. Fucking delivery guy.

Did you try more than one game with it? Not all of them were VGA compatible.

I've got this one and this one.
And now I want all the ones you just got, obv.

[edit]Ooh, three for the price of two. Oooh.

Get that thing off your face, buddy!

Yeah, I did try that. The DC wouldn't even show up the normal CD player/memory management screen though so I just presumed it was incompatible with my TV.

I may give it another go though, I don't like it when things beat me.

The one I have has several modes you can choose with a switch on the back. I can't remember what it changed.

Yeah, mine does too. You can change between sending a signal to the TV or monitor but still, neither make it work.

Damn you, I've now got £150 worth of Alien(s) related clothing in my basket on that site and I'm fighting the urge to go to the Checkout.

After all the advice given to SA about his date, how come no one asked how he got on? Or did I miss that somewhere?

As she's taller than he realised, it's just as well you people put him up to it.

What??? Nooooooooooooooooooo! http://www.tmz.com/

Flis has the post number of the devil. Need I say more?

I like it; it looks like a fanny from the 90's.

The wife has gone out tonight with a few mates, meanwhile... I'm left in the house alone.

I've already played on Xbox live, ate loads of chocolate, watched some "adult art", ordered a game (DJ Hero 2) and ordered 3 T shirts.

I wish she'd come home so I can go to bed. This is getting expensive.

Downloading Tropico that I got for £1.74 from steam.

FTFY

This seems incredibly cheap. Am I missing something?

Safesearch is OFF on that link.

Not that I can see. It is really really cheap though.

Bad Mali. BAD MALI.

Tropico is terrific fun. I haven't played a management style game I enjoyed as much since the mid 90s. I always end up playing it the same way, though - I never seem to even half fill most islands, and expand really slowly.

It's neat seeing how your town develops, also.


Re: Polish Girl - I like tall woman, it's all good. We didn't actually go out though - this was just a staff meal, and we barely got to see each other due to a silly seating plan and my being dead. New Year!

I was intending to get Tropico 3 for the 360 - the reviews say it's much of a muchness with other city-em-ups, but (a) it's on the 360 and (b) apparently the music is awesome.

Isn't it?
I'm thinking of getting a couple, and I don't even need them

The music in the first is brill One of my favourites, easily.

I actually bought Tropico 3 the other week, but won't be able to play it for x months as it's on impulse. Might pirate it in the meantime so that I can get a copy that actually works. Depends how quickly I get bored of the other bajillion games Ive bought.

On the 360, though? A management game on a console? Welp, it's on your head.

Likewise, although it uses Plesk (gnnngh) rather than the infinitely superior (IMO) cPanel/WHM.

Still, works out at £50/mo even with a cPanel/WHM license, which still seems pretty cheap.

I've played the piratey one, and quite liked that (which I'm also downloading), so hopefully it'll keep me quiet for a while.

The wig?

I prefer using the console, so I'm quite happy with that.

/resists

Both Plesk and cPanel are for wimps. Grim... is not a wimp.

I think that deal is too good to be true, there's likely some hidden catch. Are 1and1 wankers?

Yeah, I have the Pirate-y one, but I've never got round to playing it. First one is fiiine.

My sister prefers the pirate one though, for some reason. Clearly this means you are a girl somehow.

No. They've hosted Knut and Helga (who run Beex, among other things) for a couple of years now.
But I currently pay £90 per month

"Helga's gone down!"?

I've had Tropico 3 for ages having bought it in a Steam sale - possibly even last Christmas's one. Still haven't played. I might need to correct that mistake at some point over the next 4 days then.

I mean, their support is dogshit (on the software / OS side, anyway. Hardware support they respond to pretty fast) with around 2-5 days between email replies, but that doesn't matter if you can fix the problem yourself.

They live in Germany, and I wasn't feeling imaginative that day.

I think I'm going to get me a couple of these.

Halves, anybody?

My expected response to a support request to a server hosting firm regarding any software I install - which is everything after the bare OS - is "that's nice. And?".

And I might go halves on one. Let me get on IM.

Anyone else want one?
/eyes up master and slave databases

Yeah, I thought that too, but the Eurogamer review sold it to me. It can't be that bad without a mouse, can it?
