To being grumpy. :crash:
I actually have been a bit of a grump lately, and I'm aware of it, but things are very frustrating despite my efforts to get them resolved, and yeah - I actually have taken up some things to let out the stress.
There's something else very very disturbing to me that I might post about here in more detail tomorrow. My best friend (who MANY of you here know and admire and who has been like a brother to me) is going through a financial mess, losing his apartment, has lost his job, doesn't have a car, can't find an apartment, can't afford a first month's rent with deposit yet, and they're locking the doors to the place tomorrow (despite about a month's notice, he hasn't been able to get things together in time - I know how that goes, since it's happened to me before and another member here helped me with the same sort of mess last year [drdeath67!]). He doesn't have any way to save his stuff, or move it, and nowhere to go, and I don't have enough $$$ to send him right now to take care of him and his fiancee (plus he lives in a city about 1,300 miles from me).
:crying:
I'm going to my bank tomorrow and asking about setting up a fund for the 2 of them and asking for donations here, on my board, on his board (he cannot get to it - he doesn't have internet access), and several other places where people know him and me. If even we can get 50 people to send $20 or something that'd almost bail them out.
I just have a lot on my mind and I come here to relax, but there's a fresh batch of n00bs lately and the Talk area (my fave) has been a bit slow, so I've been focusing on my other responsibilities and worries and losing lots of sleep. I wake up every time I DO manage to get some sleep with cramps and soreness and I'm just generally taxed-out.
Oh well. If you've managed to read this far into the post, thanks for reading. I'll let you know what I hear from the bank about the charity thing - I'm trying to be discreet about this issue, but I think those of you who know me pretty well from my posts know about whom I'm referring, and if we can band together and help him out, I think that'd show how powerful a community this is here.
Cheers. :hatsoff: :nanner:

My roommates- for acting like such whiny bitches everytime I bring my girlfriend over to the apartment. You don't have to like her to be polite, assholes.
:rofl: and I will second that nomination!jod0565 said:
I would also like to punch in the face whoever is responsible for these rediculously high gas prices. Chances are they will only get worse as the summer continues.:thefinger

It's good to be the king...
To....The annual Music Week May Day chart, which celebrates the best of UK music counting down the 40 most popular artists of all time, as voted for by listeners of commercial radio.
This year Will Young, the winner of the inaugural UK Pop Idol contest in 2002, was voted the most popular UK artist of all time. Top 10 in detail:
1. Will Young
2. Robbie Williams
3. Paul McCartney
4. Spice Girls
5. Coldplay
6. Sugababes
7. Take That
8. Gorillaz
9. Oasis
10. Beverley Knight
Pink Floyd came 11th
Breakthrough band Arctic Monkeys came in 12th
Eurythmics was rated 24th
KT Tunstall rated 27th
Franz Ferdinand rated 29th
Texas rated 33rd.
The Beatles were a lowly 34th
The Rolling Stones did not even make it on to the list of the top 40!!
I'm heartily sick to death of these "polls" where the latest fad can be top of the pile, while respected legends and icons are considered old news.
No wonder some people think the British music scene is dead and buried.....

People loved that Techno Frog thing too. Current popularity and enduring substance/talent are often two different things - clearly - as is made evident by Spice Girls being in the Top 10! :eek: LOL :ban:

Hahaha.
Oh god I hate "proper" artists, or anybody full of themselves.
Give me my friendly pop music, it makes me smile, makes me forget about petty problems. I'd rather have the positive mindset of young teens, than inflated ego, drug abusers, in my ear.
Also, your old, I'm young. I hate having music jammed down my throat because it was cool 30 years ago.
Another punch to the german tv channel Pro7, because they cancelled Grey's Anatomy after the 9th episode. They had already cancelled Nip/Tuck and Las Vegas after a few episodes and now this. Some people should be fired there.

While on the subject of Television - a beating to SKY-TV, who trumpeted some weeks ago that they will be showing an episode of "The Simpsons" written & directed by Ricky Gervais (of "The Office" fame).
Bloody episode was nothing more than a 30 minute plug for HD-TV....which (surprise, surprise) dove-tailed nicely with the recent ads on SKY-TV to subscribe to their new HD-TV channels.....

(but then again, I should've have learned my lesson after "Gargantua" to avoid SKY premieres like Bird Flu)

That's what happens when you hang 'Mickey Mouse' knickers on your line..
A punch in the face to... The Post Office.
I've been renting DVD's from an online rental company and it appears that some of the discs have 'disappeared' after I posted them back.
Of course I never bothered to use recorded delivery or something, so no doubt I'll get billed for the missing discs......BASTARDS!

A punch in the face to... the fucking douchebag who goes around showing other people PM's and/or IM conversations, and lying about me. And the douche who believes the lie without coming to me first.
