  • Who Wants Troma Night?

    Claire and I are going to be out of town this coming Friday and the Friday after that. Who wants to host Troma Night? (assuming there'll be anybody left in town...) If nobody pipes up, I'll tag it as cancelled.

  • Does Food Go Missing From Your Kitchen?

    Does food ever go missing in your house and you don't know who's eaten it? You probably ought to check all of your cupboards, then, in case you've had a small Japanese woman living in one of them for the last year and you hadn't noticed.

  • Make It Stop

    Karaoke. It should be banned. Especially when 6-year olds steal the show.

    There simply isn't enough alcohol.

  • Six Pounds And Eighteen Pence

    That's how much better off I am per month than I was previously. Or, as I see it, three pints.

    Thank you, Gordon Brown.

  • Well, That Was Quite A Night

    I finally sobered up sometime this afternoon, right in the middle of some Perl programming. I spent some time staring at all of the symbols and regexen in the code. To be honest, I think I preferred it when I was drunk.

    More if and when I can be bothered. For now... back to the pub โ€ฆ

  • Conspiracy? No.

    Strange. Four of the last twenty text messages I've recieved have contained just the word "No". And that's it.

    It's not even like they're all from the same person (they're from three different people). My friends are usually far more articulate than than that. I feel like there's some kind of conspiracy to fill my phone โ€ฆ

  • Google's April Fool...

    ...seems to be to not text me me Google Calendar alerts this morning. So I didn't get reminded to put the bins out, which I've kind-of come to rely on. Whoops!

  • Best Joke Iโ€™ve Heard This Week

    Following up on Claire's post about Easter, here's the best joke I've heard all week:

    What did Jesus say to his disciples as he was being nailed to the cross?

    I'll be back on Monday, so don't you dare touch my fucking Easter eggs!

    That is all.

    Here's an action/puzzle game for you: Spin The Black Circle. I've played a little and gotten up to the spinning crucifix of doom level. Where can you get to?
