"octomber". Made my afternoon.

VHS and Betamax You Have Recently Rented
Chest Rockwell replied to Frankie Crisp's topic in Off Topic
Ladies love the strong silent type. -
I don't get a chance to play that often so I have only played one off games. So I can't speak to how it runs as a campaign, but I have really enjoyed all the scenarios I've played so far. Mechanics feel well balanced and not overly complex, not too luck dependent. Good incentive to play the objective and pace of game.

Has anyone watched Miniature Masters? Painting competition by the Squidmar guys. All episodes are on YouTube. I've not finished yet, but watched the first 4 episodes. It's really cool. Inspired me to get painting again. I painted one of my trench crusade warband. He looks a bit Christmassy, which is probably when it'll be by the time I get around to painting them all.

People brushing their teeth in the work toilets. Doesn't affect me, will never get over it.

The General Politics Thread v2.0 (AKA the "Labour are Cunts" thread)
Chest Rockwell replied to David's topic in Off Topic
Yeah, here's hoping the level of scrutiny proves to be just to much for him because he is at his core a very lazy man. He loves the power and attention, but you get the feeling he doesn't have the energy to fully embrace a lifestyle of pure adversarial chaos like Trump. Goes without saying that the wheels totally come off Reform without him there. -
What about hustle?

The General Politics Thread v2.0 (AKA the "Labour are Cunts" thread)
Chest Rockwell replied to David's topic in Off Topic
Yep and as ever the damage will be the fact that Kemi's Tories become the new normal, because they're fucking mental even compared to Boris and his cronies. -
As someone in the same position in a corporate office at the same stage of my career I can't say that's the way I see it / what has been my experience at all. You get the same proportion of lazy and/or useless people as there has ever been. You get them at all ages, even if the way that behaviour presents itself is different by generation. I think overall it's encouraging to see young people who know their worth, and expect to be treated as a human being and not get shit on by some power tripping middle manager. I've seen some really unprofessional behaviours when it comes to the treatment of more junior staff in some companies. And given the hierarchy of the structure those are inherently worse than any entitled tantrums from someone at the bottom of the pile.

New minor annoyance unlocked!

Probably as or more affordable as Steven Moffat and Rafe Spall. I'd be willing to give that a go. I don't think I'd be shocked if it ends up being decent. If it's really focusing on the civil service workers I think there's a decent vein to mine there.

I've been really enjoying this album. I don't listen to their first three albums that much but really enjoy all their output from Crack The Skye onwards. In fact, apart from one Ghost album (Meliora) they're pretty much the only 'modern' metal I listen to.. I'm super out of the loop. Is there any other albums or bands that you guys would recommend to check out? I like heavy but it needs to be melodic as well. Not a huge fan of overly shouty vocals these days.

I may have misread your situation but I think the two are unrelated. They will have processes by which they periodically reassess overdrafts and change their limits. They will have actions that trigger that assesment to happen (maybe the complaint did that). But once they are in the process of a limit change it will not be connected with the complaint even if it started that way.. I think you will have more success if you treat the two as completely separate and don't confuse the customer service teams with talk about the complaint. Just say 'I've got an overdraft I'm using, you're taking it away but I need to keep it'. (Source: have spent years working on retail banking processes for high street banks).

Hahaha. What the fuck?

Is this film worth watching? Looks like good fun from this.

The rain here is very pleasant and exactly what the ground needs. A slow sustained drizzle. Not inconvenient, no flood risk, just refreshing.

At least @SaitoRyo gets to watch another Stallone comedy tonight. (I actually completely unashamedly love Oscar and Tim Curry is a big part of the reason why).

This is the only review I need to not bother going back to this...

Well.. I have to say this thread is now heaving the opposite effect and making me feel much younger!

Alright... I've been thinking about this for some time, and seeing as we've currently 'jacked the Song of the Day thread talking about it, I thought it best to strike whilst the Iron is hot. It'd be nice if this thread has some discussion in it and not just a list of people posting Youtube links. But hell, it'll be nice if anyone else posts in it much at all. So yeah - try to write a bit about the stuff you're posting to give people a reason to click it and possibly spark off some decent conversation. I know we've certainly got a few fans about, and I'm also interested in knowing where neil got to with his recently new found love of hip hop and journey through the years thereof. I'll start with a track from my current hip hop album of the year. Sean Price has been going for years, since back in Heltah Skeltah with Rock where they had one big hit in the early 90s. He has a cool ass fucking voice, is generally a witty guy and is believably and effortlessy badass. Very charismatic and authentic in the world of fakers and posers that is hip hop. Grown man bars. And if he is to be believed this is his last album
