I was going to say something similar, but I didn't want to discourage Kira.
Well done for not smoking for two days, Kira.
Giving up smoking is hard. Impossible actually. Nobody has ever quit. Ever. If they say they have, they're lying. They just sneak a smoke when nobody's looking. Lying, sneaking, smoking bastards.

it's such a strange thing to pick up on. It's probably because british kids aren't prepared to walk about with wires all over their faces. We have those train track ones, but I've seen american shows where kids have braces that literally wrap around their faces. That's cruising for a bruising.

ah yes. shane mcgowan.that famous professional irish.to wikipedia:
Despite being considered an "Irish National Treasure," MacGowan was born in the English town of Tunbridge Wells in Kent on December 25 1957, when his Irish parents were visiting relatives. Three months later he was back in Ireland, where he lived with his mother's family in a place called Silvermines near Nenagh in northwest Tipperary, on the Galway/Clare borders, until he was six and his parents relocated to England, where he attended Westminster School.

made me do a big
I really am lacking in conviction for most things at the moment so my new attempt will be to cut down and then start from scratch. I have 2 years before I'm thirty so I got plenty of time...eek...

A debate has raged for many a year round my parts as to whether it's your parents nationalities, the place that you were born, or where you've for most of your life that dictates what you are...
I'm kind of easy, as I was born in Wandsworth, lived in Wandsworth most my life, and both my parents are Londoners, but some people go on and on and on and on about it being one thing or the other.

wow, why didnt they invent the internet when i was at school? just done that whole six degrees of myspace thing. amazing! reading profiles, looking at their pics, bored people from the villages, from back 'home'.
these human beings won a 'battle of the bands' at my old school.

Now that we've got some distance on it, anybody want to dissect this topic? Could be just the thread we need for Monday morning. I'm a skeptic myself, a conspiracy theorist, if you will. Did Roy belt kovacs? Did Roy ever exist? What were their/our motives behind any or all of their/our actions, before, during and after the 'fact'. I think we should throw open the debate to include the ben/Fish debacle, too. 'Their' 'lawyers' have 'warned' 'them' off commenting on the 'incident', so they should keep their hooters out of what promises to be a fascinating rumpus-room chockful of supposition, guesswork, slander and lies.

my mum likes the final fantasy series, she completed 7 a number of times.
A film based on it has recently been released, I wonder if it's going to be any good. And it invented the mog people things, that are very cute, but basically moomin.
I quite wanted to be cloud in final fantasy 7, and often spent minutes wondering how I could effect this transformation. Unfortunately cosplayers have taken this day dream too far and made it a cruel reality.
she's having a hard time with both lucifers call and star ocean at the moment, she enjoyed fahrenheit too much though.
here are some hcoice final fantasy quotes i take with me on my phone and look at when im in need of life coaching:
First, this piece of comedy frin Final Fantasy 9, which sadly I got bored of.
quistis: I'm not asking you to talk, I'm asking you to listen!
Squall: Then go talk to a wall
This scene is great because quistis is his teacher, and there's a kind of erotic charge between them and I got a bit of a nob twinge thinking about having sex with teachers. He's so offhand with her and she just laps it up.
And this one, a sager thing never really said:
Barret: People get depressed in life because they don't know what's up
Strong environmental messagei n final fantasy, so it's lovely.
I have to disagree on metal arms benway, though I played the ps 2 version which may have had an effect. Was just quite repetitive, with crap textures / level design, and I didn't get into the stylings. and it reminded me of godamn jetforce gemini.
I have played animal crossing once in two weeks so far, i was mortified at receiving a mortgage and job on my first day.
but planting trees WAS SO FUCKING EXCITING I NEARLY DIED.
mario kart is pretty wicked, but they've chosen some whack tracks from the past games, moo moo farm ffs? that shitty one from the gc thats just an oval, i mean godamn this isnt fucking NASCAR.

I don't play mk any more really, because motherfuckers online always do that snaking shit, where they power slide even when they're going str8. So you've got no chance unless you do it too. And I can't do it.
I'm disappointed that you don't dig metal arms. Maybe the GC version is superior to Ps2 (which is often the case) in terms of the look of it, and as you play the game, there are so many little touches and changes to the playing style, like the ability to control vehicles, other robots and the ability to have 'pet' zomboids, that it's like a different game every level. Bah.
