    You know when a straight guy goes around and score loads of girls, he's nearly considered a hero (of sorts). Well if a gay guys were to go around and score loads of guys, would he be consider a hero (of sorts) or just a slut? Is there a line in the sand for gay guys when it comes to promiscuity?

    Bloody hell! I was just getting meself settled to see a great wildlife documentary on The Superb Owl. Next thing I see a load of fellas with thunder-thighs prancing around in tights and giant shoulderpads. Not my type at all, I'm afraid.


    What a comedown.

    UGH!!!

    Dating is so complicated!

    If someone isn't interested, why does it always take so long to get a single phrase out of their mouth, i.e., "I'm not interested". Simples! Personally, the truth doesn't offend me much. I wish humanity was just more up front and honest with each other.

    Sometimes, just sometimes...

    Did you ever feel like running away from the real world, with some random person you just met, to an undiscovered desert island and setting up a coconut plantation?

    No, but I've dreamt of running away with certain people and living in bliss like that... but sadly life can get in the way...:(

    Yep been having one if those days when the engine just barely turns over - trundles along for a few hours then sputters into 'this is your brain speaking- in off into hibernation. Feck off. Do not disturb etc'dom.

    All I've done apart from eat I'd watch a few feel good movies.

    However I was up late on fri night as I was asked for some 'desert' for today. I made the dark choc fudge frosting cuppins (texture of a cupcake in muffin size) with a twist. I added a square of dark coacoa with caramel Lindt choc into each.
    The trick to stop the choc piece sinking to the bottom: cook half filled muffin cases for several mins - till it's just barely toughened up. Pop in the choc and pour the rest of the cake mix then bake for the usual allotted time.
    They. Are. Sinful. Gives them a gorgeous centre. Useful baking tip!

    Have an tooth abscess, very very sore but I'm smiling! The very lovely very new woman in my life who I wasn't meant to be seeing today, brought me painkillers and stayed a while to cheer me up :) Sometimes, albeit not often enough for most of us, just sometimes life is grand :)

    Probably my favourite U2 song, much of the rest is just bollocks, imo.

    Didn't know she was touring! Was it a one off B&C? Have never seen her but I reckon she would match the Indigo Girls live?

    It was a one-off, she was starting her European tour here last night. She's doing a load of shows over in the UK in the next week or so though if you wanted to see her, she never plays over here. I've never seen the Indigo Girls live, but man oh man, Melissa was incredible. Such a talented musician, and serious stage presence and stage craft. Well recommended!

    Modern technology + modern communication....
    Sitting on the loo with my phone 'pinning all the things' (a fellow pinhead will understand!) and mum sends a Facebook message telling me to come here to her when im done. At least she didn't tell people where I was!!!

    I;ve got a better one:

    you're playing a playstation game and you get hungry:

    save the game, quit game, internet browser.
    Online Pizza delivery, serch nearest, order pizza, quit browser.

    start up game, load from save point.

    ...wait for pizza.

    It's only a matter of time before you'll be able to browse on the net without quitting the game.

    x, shoot
    o, duck
    L1: order a pizza:D

    So... The too lazy to cook gamer thing is widespread! Just kidding, I know what it's like when you're on a roll!

    In my day twas pause the megadrive / play station, pick up the phone, go back to game, pause when the doorbell goes, eat pizza and play one handed <-- like a boss

    Gotta love the convenience of being to order online though!

    hope everyone has noticed Stephen ns survey in the sticky at the top

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
