lol I'm sure I could, she wouldn't understand

A woman at work who always asks me for help with her computer issues. I wouldn't mind but; -

"My screens are black, they're not showing anything" - Computer wasn't on.

"My mouse is working" - Moving the mouse of the computer next to her.

"This program won't let me login" - Typing her password in the address bar of IE.

"I'm clicking the print button but nothings happening" - Pressing the save button.

Then, she doesn't recognise that she's being dopey, she blames the PCs and as a result of helping her, I'm a 'computer whiz-kid'. Bless her. Idiot.

I've got a date tomorrow. Looking forward to it, seems like a really nice girl. We've spoken a lot this last week.

Meeting for drinks.

Good for you, mate

I don't think I've ever had a proper 'date' like that. If I have that word was never used lol

Haircut, jogging, pub, rollerdisco tonight

May go and watch Halesowen Town FC tomorrow

The Mrs has a load of Uni work in for Monday, so it's gonna be a quiet weekend in I think. I may finally complete Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It's only been 14 years

Sitting close to three women at work who seem to think Cher Lloyd, Rihanna, Katy Perry, etc have made the best music known to man, ever. I mean, come on.

Is it okay to think...(scrap that) KNOW that your own taste in music is much better than theirs and other people are just wrong? I suppose not, but I still do it

I was hit in the testicals once and I didn't much care for it at all

ARRRGGHH, Mouth Ulcers!! I've got 3 or 4 at the moment

From the photo I thought the balls were massive, but they're like tennis balls

Taller trains needed. Or triangle trains, like a toblerone

The shirt in my avatar is my second favourite villa top after the Reebok 95. I just wish it had acorns on instead of 32red

This thread is too broad, we need to do a 75+

That's round about when I may so no....to one or two...

I understand how standing can improve the atmosphere in the ground and would love to experience it at Villa Park as I never have, so I've voted Yes.

However, I can't see there being much of an atmosphere raised by having a very small section of the ground standing, and one that happens to have the worst view, in my experience anyway. Wasn't the old Holte End atmosphere created by the whole stand standing, chanting together and being able to drink?

I got one for Christmas, gonna learn a song I wanna learn, rather than just learn separate chords. Is that the best way to do it?

I'd say so. That's what I did anyway, but I'm no expert. I just remembered the chords for future reference.

It's my birthday in a couple of weeks, and I've just bought myself an early present:

I made sure this was the first song I learnt

With the FFP rules in place, what can a new owner bring us that Randy can't/won't?

(That's a genuine question by the way, I'm not suggesting there's nothing)

He's blown his fortune and now feels down about it ??

I'm sorry if I don't have a great deal of sympathy, millions of people have it much tougher than dean and won't get the help/support he'll get now

I wish him a speedy recovery

Thing is, when people realise depression is a mental illness more people will find it easier to admit they need help and seek it asap. It's all about raising awareness

With all due respect to you, I think you comparing depression with 'feeling down' a bit ignorant to be honest.

Anyway, as you say, I wish him a speedy recovery

Maybe she doesn't use the toilet? She could be an android

1.your wrong

2. what is there to argue about? it is a fact, SOME of the teams? by that do you mean all but napoli? who have been in the top 5 only 1 time in the last 20 years ( it is how far i could be bothered going back so may be more)

3. how is the money there? how much merchendise are they geared up to sell? distribution? branding? is it more than nike? no , so there is NOT more money is there!

4. being the biggest fish in a pond of tampons, used condoms and floating shit is not something to be bragging about. i would rather be a small fish in the biggest pond in the world full of the worlds best thanks very much.

If you're getting this angry and wound up by a little logo on the shirt, what are you like when faced with actual problems and troubles?

Oh and 'YOU'RE wrong' :winkold:

About 99% of them

1-1. take the lead after 15 minutes, sit back they equalise after 68 minutes. protect point in massive borefest. keane to play 30 mins and do sod all

Bore draw guarenteed. The weekly Dicky Dunne **** up to be made on 55 minutes.

Can you bet on the game being boring?

And people call us self loathing? What they on about, eh? :winkold:

*Not sure where I got this from but ......

If you have a hand-held laser thingy (like the ones they point at the planes etc) and imagine that the only object in the universe is the planet Earth. If you point the laser just above the horizon would the red dot appear on the back of your own neck ?

(I might not have explained this very well so stop pulling mongy faces )

* I might have imagined or dreamed this....

:? I don't quite get that

A fact I read ages ago (may have been in this thread actually, apologies) is there are more ways to arrange a pack of cards than there have been seconds in the universe since it began. If true...head explosion...

go around the bus and take them off the seats then!

I thought that, but then I don't know if the person who's put them out is still on the bus and don't want to get in a scrap with some nutter at 5.30am

Also, I don't want to be taking 70-odd BNP leaflets into work

I'm on the number 9 bus at about 5.30am every day. There's usually only one or two people on it but every week or so, on every other seat, there's a BNP leaflet/flyer thing with Nick Griffins ugly mug on. That pisses me off

I then watch the bus fill up and am amazed by the amount of people that read through it and put it in their pocket or bag

And the other one is holidays (away from home, that is). They always make me feel a bit stressed and anxious. I make myself travel because I think it's good for me, and good to look back on. But I'm always massively relieved to get back home (although not back to work).

any part of it in particular that gives you stress or just the whole package ?

I think it's the whole package. Being out of my comfort zone, basically - using foreign languages, worrying about losing stuff, strange cars and road rules, anxiety about the house being burgled while we're away, inability to get Marmite and decent ale, that sort of thing. Don't get me wrong, there's usually a lot that I DO enjoy as well, but I never completely relax, as I would at home.

I totally understand that. I usually get home and think, 'Well...I took that for granted'

Something else I've tried to STOP doing (sorry, I realise that's not the theme of the thread) is worrying. I've realised it does no good and just stresses you out. I could make a long list of things that are worrying me at the moment, I bet you next week I wouldn't even remember them. Things usually work out

How do you stop yourself from worrying about said issues?

I suppose I can't switch it off totally, I just mean I look back at stuff I've worried about in the past and now realise there was no need to get stressed over it because things worked out. Things like upcoming job interviews, financial trouble, unsettled arguements or whatever. So why bother getting stressed about something I'll look back on as nothing in the future. Hakuna matata and all that

Although I suppose my worries are silly little things in the great scheme of things anyway
