Good afternoon and welcome to BeeXWeeX on the
second day of the first test against New Zealand*, following a
knight to forget in Italy (yes, yes, I know).
And some bloke gets past it.
It's a normal day up here in Bradford, the
sky is the usual happy gray and few people are smiling. I’m at work, busying myself away so, once again, this'll be mainly my writing things down that have been sent to me. I had the poorlies on Monday and Tuesday, so spent the day recovering and some afternoons playing the excellent Sleeping Dogs. This is like a refined version of GTA without any of the annoying stuff that made GTA rubbish in comparison. The missions are varied and fun, and you can bomb around Hong Kong if you wish, helping people out by throwing drunks in front of buses, chasing down thieves and beating up drug dealers. Alternatively, you can find statues and then learn new ways to beat people up. After you learn to break people's legs (I winced the first time) it becomes a truly mentally violent game as your role as an undercover policeman starts to disappear. You'll take umbrage at many things. Man shouts at you in the street? Break his legs, chuck him in the boot of the car and drive the car into the harbour. The last thing you hear before you jump out of the car as it zooms towards the edge of the quay is a muffled thump and a quiet "let me out". Then a splash and silence. For £15 (ASDA, or
possibly less it is simply superb. Other exciting news in the Life of MaliA is that I'm closer to moving house so won't have to put up with the quad biking people of no apparent income that live down the road much more.
Other news!
Watch Dogs looks great. Very good. Be excited!
DerekFME has organised an electronic music night in Doncaster that looks pretty awesome
BeexCott4ge sign-ups are here. You all should go.
Star thieves to advertise on youtube causes
APOD to admit the real problem.BUT THIS IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANY OF THAT! STAND BY! BEGIN TRANSMISSION OF EXCELLENT NEWS OF HIGH AWESOMENESS
Some are, further south though, as the big news this week is that there will be a
Mrs Russell as Mr Russell dipped his long arms into his deep pockets and bought a ring for Mimi. Congratulations from all of us, as we're in favor of
everything and
we'll even help plan it all.
Saturnalian made a joke about
Monkey Island which nobody got. This was a shame, as it was excellent.
Once every 6 months names can be changed, lest we forget.
Um, shit, this is a bit embarrassing but, the best of the rest:
How to stand correctedI get defeated by
cagoulAnd I flirt with the
banhammer by including the nom in BeexWeeX.
And there is no way I am including a whole thread about Craster as it is sick, wrong and an affront to humankind. Whoever started it should think about what they have done and whoever nommed it needs help. DavPaz.
Many thanks to you, the readers and contributors, and to those who took the time to nominate things they felt were worthy:
Grim..., ChinnyHill10,KovacsC, DavPaz, APOD, Curio and MaliA.
*4 wickets have gone since I started writing this in a spectacular collapse.**
