  1. Cards are a scam.

     

    Here's my tip.

     

    If you need to buy a card for anything, head straight for the blank cards, i.e. the bog standard ones with a picture on the front of a dog or a flower or something like that, and nothing written inside.

     

    For birthdays it doesn't matter what picture you choose, for other things you might have to make a judgement call (i.e. don't buy a card with a picture of a happy dog on the front for a bereavement)

     

    Then just write your own message inside. It doesn't even have to be clever. Just

    "To Joe Bloggs,

    happy birthday, have a great day!

    from John Smith"

     

    I guarantee whoever you give it to will think your card is 10 times more thoughtful than any of the ones with "jokes" on the front or special pre written greetings card messages. And it'll probably cost you 99p. Whereas a big elaborate one with a joke on the front and a pop up grey bear holding a fricking pillow shaped like a heart inside will probably cost you £4

     

    If I got a blank card for my birthday with some random picture on the front and nothing that's specific to a birthday, I'd assume that it's been pulled from a stock of 'cards for all random occasions' in someones drawer.

     

    You'd be better off holding a stock of 1 of each kind. Birthday, Get well soon, Bereavement, etc and just replenshing when you use one.

    Hiya! Cheers. And... W.T.F.... Amazing. I seem to have come back just in time.

  3. After 5 years... I made level 85. (A few will remember when I started / how long it's been and yes I am talking about my main, not alt!)

    So now I need to learn how to PvP and Raid. Its weird with no XP bar though, I kinda feel like there's no purpose now.

    I feel like you need a standing ovation rather than a simple 'GZ' so just for you...

    Well done :)

    Hahahahaha. I like the standing ovation, thanking you :D

  5. Oh and... That ad for a cougars dating website on VT (which is NOT related to my internet searches, BTW) has a tag line that says: 'If your ex can date someone ten years younger...' *FACEPALM*

    That is ridiculous.

  6. Hello gorgeous people. Your girl is back. How are you all? Well I hope.
    Look, you can't just disappear for months on end and then come swanning back in and expect VillaAjax to make a Lego model of you, you know.

    We're fine, how about you? :D

    Oh, watch me... :winkold:

    Glad things are good here. I'm alright thanks, still unemployed after being made redundant in December when my company had to pull out of the UK, so in somewhat of a difficult situation but PMA prevailing.

    What's the gossip? Who's the father? What's occuring?

    The only thing I am clued up on is Dante's romance which I am yet to formally congratulate him on, good one squire.

  7. I've tried something along similar (though nowhere near as brutal) lines before.... it failed miserably.

    I wouldn't live my life by that rule.

    BUT, if Dante really likes her, and she doesn't want a relationship, then I would absolutely dump her and tell her it's because you want more, you're not happy with it being so casual.

    Either she agrees and they're serious, or she tells him fair enough and they stay split up. Which is by far the better option. The last thing Dante wants is to be hanging onto this girl with it being casual whilst he gets more and more into her because of the whole wanting what you can't have phenomenon, because when she gets bored he'll be heart broken.

    If she doesn't want anything, best to end it now.

    If she does, then breaking it off with the reason being that he wants more will be what causes her to realise it.

    As much as I'd like to suggest to keep nailing her, if Dante is into this girl then he needs to act

    Guess I'm hoping that my fun loving and caring nature will show her just how good of a boyfriend I can be

    I don't want to sound brutal, but this is bullshit. All this will show her is that she can keep it casual and still get treated like a queen. By all means give her some special treatment. BUt if you act like a lapdog she'll treat you like a lapdog. She needs to understand that yeah you're a nice guy, but she doesn't get it for free.

    It's easier said than done, I know from experience, but you have to break it off. It's the only way it'll work, if that makes any sense. Otherwise you're heading for the friendzone, and that's a horrible place to be.

    Y'all need to bookmark this and refer to it if ever in this situation in the future.

    Spot. On. :thumb:

    Oh...?

    ... Excuse me?

  8. Alright, I am still trying in vain to feel Christmassy so I thought I would ask you all to tell me your Christmas traditions and see if that makes me feel a little more festive.

    Do you have a routine for the day?

    Is it a family, friends or both affair?

    Do you always have the same thing for Christmas dinner, or will you be mixing it up?

    What is your Christmas tipple of choice?

    Do you do something special that really 'makes' the day?

    Or do you avoid Christmas completely?

    Etc, etc.

  10. She sounds like a whore.

    Buffet 'restaurants' (I mean, it's practically food fried by halogen light bulbs...) and she doesn't want a relationship, it's just a 'casual thing'.

    You better not be paying...

    Seriously though. Bail fella, you don't need this right now, IMO. (Be prepared for some of the guys on here to tell you casual sex is EXACTLY what you need right now, but it's the exact opposite.)

  11. "It's not that bad, I mean, it's not like we're brothers or anything" - Made me lol.

    I wouldnt be so sure of that if I were you. I would go one step futher, the amount of ass licking Clegg is going I would suggest they are more closer than brothers.

    What? What exactly am I 'sure of'? I was quoting something which made me chuckle.

    Don't use me in your political agenda, thank you.
