Aww, James Avery (Uncle Phil from Fresh Prince) has died.

Predicted a comfortable Villa win. I was half right.

Win. Comfortably. There, I said it.

Spoke about it before on here, but I used to have sleep paralysis quite a bit. It was usually when I was really tired or had a lot going on in my life at the time. I usually woke up but completely paralysed and dreamt about people walking around the room, looking at me, whispering in my ear and stuff. Terrified me the first few times, but soon realised I could just calm down to snap out of it or go back to sleep. I used to get the lucid dreaming thing loads when I was a kid, most of my dreams I'd know I was dreaming and I could do whatever I wanted, but I couldn't control what was happening in my dream, if that makes sense? I'd still get attacked by giant marshmallow sheep, or whatever.

Yeah, just came on here to moan about that. It's bothering me much more than it should.

Yup, yup, yup!

I would have liked school if 90% of the people in my year weren't arseholes and mostly still are judging by facebook.

I must have missed that one.

My girlfriend's boss at one of her old jobs was called Bernard Matthews. Her boss at her next job was called Bart Simpson. Her current boss is called Julian Thomas. That last one's not a funny one, I just thought I'd let you know. I also made it up. How many you cracked out today?

Well I'd like to thank you, you've kept me in a job. I'm now working in specialist complaints for Barclays refunding mis-sold PPI! Circle of life and all that! Lots of serious piss taking in that job. One of the lads regularly put on a Russian accent for no reason other than he thought it was amusing. Then we'd have competitions to see who could swear the most without actually swearing. Stuff like "for comparison's sake" pronounced as "fuckomparison's sake" etc. There was one particularly nonsensical week where we tried to shoehorn as many dairy products as we could in. I would assume you've got your work cut out for you Haha, haven't had any complaints about anything like that as of yet, will keep an eye out. My favourite complaint so far was this: "This page is for you to tell us what happened when you took out the payment protection insurance. (eg. where the sale took place, information you were given, questions you asked) Mis-sold PPI Finally, tell us why you are unhappy with the insurance. Disappointed." It's difficult to know where to start answering that complaint.

Wasn't Eleanor Rigby taken from a gravestone? Does that count?

I wanted to be a doctor, but I didn't have the patients.

I've said this before in this thread, but it's just happened again. Someone just passed me my work off the printer and to help separate my paper from theirs, they did that thumb licking thing. Lovely. Nothing I like more than a saliva thumbprint on my document.

I didn't know the story, so just googled, 'shirley manson breakfast' and saw the headline "Badass Rocker Shirley Manson Likes Her Earl Grey with a Splash of..."

I think any band considered to be world's greatest by millions are also going to get many millions thinking they are vastly over-rated. Personally, I love them and think they rightfully deserve top spot. But, meh, it's all opinions ay it?

You've made me want to play Wind Waker.

I get 'Chris' from 'Skins' a lot. As you can tell from my avatar...we're like twins.

It's on your actual card mate, just hand them that.

Old photographs of places I know are a bit of an obsession of mine. Here's some lost buildings of Brum. King Edward's Grammar School, New Street. Roughly where the Odeon is now I think. The old Snow Hill station. And the most criminal in my opinion, Mason Science College, demolished to build the old library and paradise forum.

After 9 games I've conceded 15 and scored 3. Possibly my worst ever start on FM with Villa. I lost 6-1 to Hull last night and wanted to smash my laptop to bits. I didn't.

Got into work at 8 and we have nothing to do. It's going to be like it for the rest of the week apparently. Not sure if this is the right thread for this, because I'm not exactly pissed off by it. I'm just a bit bored.

I'm nearly on the first page for the first time this season thanks to captain Suarez. 92 points for Team Lovely.
