now can't decide whether to go to sleep or waste a few more hours on FM, just getting into my second season.

Morning all. I'm not even sure why I'm still awake, I think the answer may well be "because I can't be arsed to walk over to the bed"

Plus my FM game is going brilliantly and I'm paranoid my form will disappear if I close it down. Swindon 2-0 Manchester United and Arsenal 2-3 Swindon in a row. Beautiful.

Post by: flammableBen on Monday, January 23, 2012, 01:19:03
I hate it when that happens (^^^Having to get up early but can't sleep). I tend to get drunk because I know I over compensate on hangovers and little sleep. It hits disaster at mid day though. That's when you start drinking strong black coffee and a greasy sandwich. Early night on Monday (If you've done it right you won't want to go out drinking) and you're up ready for Tuesday

I call it the Blaflemnabme plan.

standard coffee (with milk) will see me through until around 1-2ish. Then it's black syrupy coffee, cigarettes and general hate towards the outside world. The backlash being that the caffeine doesn't kick in until i'm back home and i start the whole fucking cycle again. With that in mind, i'll be hitting booze as soon as i'm home tomorrow to try and bring on the boozy coma

I was chatting to Fola about this the other day, but do you actually have to be at uni ever? I remember when I was a student my lecture attendance record was insanely bad. I passed my second year without going to one lecture / workshop / anything.

e: that's a lie, I met up with my group who I was doing a project with. But apart from that - nothing.

i concur oh wise one. I was saying the other day that if i have kids and tell them that you used to be able to smoke in pubs, they'll piss themselves. Tobacco will be a class c drug by then anyway.

I'm in uni for 6 hours a week.

with maybe an extra 2 outside that working at home..

Not much at all considering i'm paying £3k for the privilege!

I don't smoke so have no comment on going outside.

Nah, all signs are heading to the capitalist wonderland.  Why should the state intervene if you want to make money selling crack to children. You should have probably educated your children to say "NO" better. Free Market wins out. I mean you could always boycott the crack dealers who are selling to children right?

I once got a first (actually just under - but fuck honesty), on an essay I wrote in a little under 3 hours whilst fucked on Spar brand premium stength lager and extra Spar vodka to top me up. The essay was about the life of the universe from the point of view of an atom. I wrote it in the first person. 68% you fuckers.

That is fucking brilliant.

Haven't tried Spa brand lager may give it a go.

Since tesco put the price of "Béire Spécial" up to £2.99 for 8 it doesn't seem as cheap..

Excellent work. I had an exam on Tuesday for a particularly bullshitty subject (Project Management) in which I indulged myself in a risk analysis on the possibility of an Asteroid hitting the Earth and destroying all living organisms and (seperately) a paragraph about King Arthur. I feel this is a new high for me, my previous best having been quoting Yoda as an academic theorist in an Organisational Behaviour paper.

Edit: Swindon 1-0 Manchester City. I am fucking awesome.

Isn't that the 2% shit? But spar premium strength lager was never that cheap. Just a quid less than stella for the same strength. It's probably changed now.

I miss this forum, and although I was never universally popular like Spacey or Onion Jimbo, I hope that everybody realised that I put the effort in and did my best. It's a shame that times moved on, but that's how it goes.

It's all a bit footbally now, and PDC or not, I think that I've lost that passion - quite a while ago if I'm honest. Although if there's ever need for a protest, then you know where to shout.

Didnt get it all done. 2 people couldnt even get on the system. Course cancelled, home by 10am and now probably having to go into work for a normal shift tonight. Ghey.

Was looking forward to 2 weeks of no nights.

Grr.

Cant remember what your job is.  Something confusing and techie?

it scared me just how disorganised the courts seemed - one day they sent a load of people home before we got sworn in, i.e. before people had a chance to say "i know the defendant"... turned out two people knew the defendant and no other jurors were still around to step in, so it got delayed by two days.

I got discharged early as well but bunked off work.

My job this week is to sit around and keep an eye on the phones/emails to make sure nothing goes wrong
