So what have people been up to?

Lately, I have mostly been:

- Growing a beard
- Getting a new job
- Playing a lot of guitar

I think maybe I should combine the 3 somehow.

I made a robot  8)

Ace.

I tried making a robot once. It was one of those weekly magazine types.

I gave up after issue 7 so only had a partially completed robot.

I watched Jimmy Carr on Channel 4, Athlete on now and Jason Donovan up next. It's a pretty mega Friday night.

Don't go getting to over-excited now...

Not a lot really. Played a bit of NES Zelda 1 on the Gamecube. The Game Over, 32 evenly spread note music, has now been playing for about 6 hours. To be honest it's starting to send me mental but I'm too lazy to lean over and turn it off. Result.

Apart from that I've been chilling on here. Oh and watching old Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares. They should do a cross over with Knightmare, where Ramsay shows them what to do whilst the owners have to wear the Helmet of Justice. "3 steps forward, turn 90 left, lower prices, shorten menu, side-step right 4 paces, sack head chef, turn 90 degrees right, change name of restaurant... [etc.]"

It would be awesome.

It's a good programme though. Especially since despite the slightly over the top aggression from Ramsay, it's still pretty down to earth. He doesn't promise to turn around places in a week, just make them not go out of business and maybe break even. He justifies what he's suggesting too, not just random suggestions out of the air.

Good stuff.

Oh I've also been playing an obsucre RPG called "Demise - Rise Of The Ku'tan". Got pissed after I managed to get SiPie the Troll Ninja to level 3 before getting killed my ghosts. I'm going back to NPPAngband, which is a stupidly awesome Rogue-Like and I recommend it to anyone. Although losing my level 40 Rogue the other day hurt a bit. That's the way that these tough RL's fall. If you die you die.

tonight i've been looking at photos of colorado and utah...

now i am playing FM.

and listening to belle and sebastian.

that's a very flammableBen thing to do

i'm in the middle of watching Children of Men, but I've taken a break to have some wine and cheese and TEF.

Is that connected to the society Children for Men? I think it's half way between NAMBLA and Fathers for Justice.

It wasnt a very good robot. In fact it was shite... and my son who was supposed to be making it... left me to do it on my own... the told me i was crap when i had finished.

Perhaps you could do some busking, strumming the guitar with your facial hair.

I watched HIGNFY, which put me in a great mood, which has quickly changed since arriving at work, after an argument with my boss. Fucking bitch !"£$%^&*(()*&^%$£"£$%^&*()(*&^%$

Hey Sam, do you want to start a band? I don't mind being relegated to bass. I can play a bit, I think you've heard me.

I think we should take the cop out route and get a lady lead singer. They tend to sound better even if they're not very good. If not then I'll put my hat into the street. I'm pretty sure my voice is better than Ian Browns so it shouldn't be a hindrance.

can i be in the band?

Can you play drums?

Oh, and more importantly, can you grow a beard?

no and no.

i can't sing either

I can do both can i join?

USURPER!

Sorry sonic. But a bird with a beard might give us the edge.

s'ok

although drummers are often fatties, so perhaps i ought to learn

I'll give up bass if you want to play it. I can do keyboards with a bit of practice. I had the main bit of Sympothy for the Devil down a few months back but it sounds crap with out the ace drums.

Woohoo does that mean im cool...? i can even dye the beard to match what you guys are wearing?

Is this thread an in joke or can outsiders join in??

The more the merrier i say!
But im off to bed now

I don't think we have that many injokes. Nothing more complicated that fatbury being a sex pest anyway. Oh and the old word changes, but they're pretty obvious. Oh and Manatees, and taking the piss out of everything. Nah no injokes here.

Get involved. It's a bit addictive though.

Thinking of going then????

i'm going to arkansas for a wedding next may, coxy. annoyingly, i'll miss the last game of the season and the play-offs.

we're flying into atlanta, then driving through the rocky's. i think!

Oh i`m involved alright.already i feel there may be no going back.The plunge has been taken.

You are driving from Atlanta to Arkansas via the Rockies????

Seems a bit out of the way to me. Want some information.

Don't side track it. I want Mr McCann to get involved. Terry my new friend, if you reply to this comment in true TEF (Town End Forum) classic humour then you'll be the get the record of the least posts with an individual title. Good god that needed some punctuation. Oh well, here we go...

Given your user name..

Madeleine McCann walked into a bar...

erm, i think so. it's all sort of been organised and i've not paid much attention  :D

i think i'm wrong. erm, i dunno.

Is there a standard TEF reply to this or is it one of those tests where i say the first thing that comes into my head??

first thing. There's no standard as far as I know. There normally isn't. And if there is then it doesn't matter, if you give a good response then you can usurp the standard

...and brutally murder OMG THERE's FAU FUCKING UFO OUTSIDE11!

Just wondered, because the Rockies are much further west than Arkansas, which is landlocked between Oklahoma (West), Louisiana (South), Missouri (North) and Tennessee and Missisippi (East).

Atlanta to Little Rock is 521 miles, 8 and a half hour drive via Birmingham AL and Memphis.

Enjoy Atlanta airport. I fucking hate it.

And sorry Ben....

EVER BEEN TO LITTLE ROCK?

oops caps

No. Is that where you're going?

Unless maddie was looking for directions from little rock i doubt my reply could help her on this thread,can i have another question??

You'll have to get used to threads branching off. Sonic and Lion King are obviously branching off on there own conversation. It was a pretty good effort at integration though, I'll give you a B-.

Only fucking about. Post what the fuck you want. That's the way of the TEF. Start a new topic about something which you want to talk about. If it it's about football then do it in one of those slightly odd topics in the football section. Otherwise post anything the fuck you want here in General Discussion.

yup. for your lookalike's wedding 8)

I can pick up some guide books and maps if you want. All free.

my answer was 'ouch, oh, hang on, i'm dead and or missing'.

That's Simba you dumb shit. I'm the stupid smelly warthog....

you know these things far too well, do you have a ten year old daughter or have you married a young girl?

just realised that last bit sounded very wrong.

Neither. I'm a Lion King geek  :oops:  :fag:

that would be superb mate, a pint is yours when you return to blighty 8)

I was just vaguely referencing the film; there's no need to go mental. Calm down Mr. Lion King.

No problem. I'll pick them up next week then and ship them back with all my worldly possessions. Should have them Feb time. Should work out in good time.

Just correcting your technical incorrectness, your highness.
