No fucker there, but I did get stuck on the Saw ride for 10 mins as the harness got stuck down.

i went on 13 at alton towers a week or so after it opened and it broke down in the dark room where normally some evil voice recording plays and then you drop and shoot backwards for the last section of the ride (didnt know this at the time)

we were in the room for about twenty minutes, the lights came up and we had a nice chat with some park employees then they left and we sat in the dark for another five minutes and then dropped without warning it was pretty funny because people were chatting normally, turning round in their seats etc and completely unprepared

Yeah, apart from the "not able to go anywhere" bit being stuck on a rollercoaster is actually kinda alright. You just chat with some randoms and generally everyone finds it pretty funny.

They should do that every time, it's the best way to scare the poo poo out of people.

Also see those people who run the bungee ball things throwing down a random bolts and shouting WAIT WHAT'S THIS seconds before they fling the people up

Of course sometimes you're going to have to just kill people to make sure there is some tension

I'm watching London Live's Lunchtime news (which is two loving hours long with about 10m of content) and they've been covering the eviction of the last few hangers on at Sweet Ways Estate in Barnett, and every time they cut to the on site guy, they have him read out a statement from the housing developers about how they are going to "Rebuild twice as much housing on the site, at least 20% of which will be affordable™ leading to at least 60 new affordable homes where there are currently none" and it's just such a barefaced line of bullshit that I can hardly believe this muppet has read it out 4 times in the last hour.

Firstly it was a council estate, so it was ALL social housing so saying there is none is a barefaced lie, Secondly "affordable™" housing in London now includes places going for £1.2m which I really wouldn't call affordable.

God I wish this fucker would actually say something about what a pile of poo poo the developers statement is.

More to the point, im permabanned poster niggerstomper58. i first started reading fyad when i was about 12. by 14 i got really obsessed with the concept of "irony" and tried to channel it constantly, until my thought process got really bizarre and i would repeat things like "friend of the family balls" and "i love making GBS threads inside friend of the family assholes" in my head for hours, and i would get really paranoid, start seeing things in the corners of my eyes etc, basically prodromal schizophrenia. im now on antipsychotics.

i always wondered what the kind of "ironic" style of fyad humor was all about; i think it's the unconscious leaking in to the conscious, what jungian theory considered to be the cause of schizophrenic and schizotypal syptoms.

i would advise all people who "get" fyad to be careful because that likely means you have a predisposition to a mental illness. peace.

Hey Fluo that mead book arrived and talks about a mead ale. Have you ever tried making that?
Is it easier because it only takes a few months to make?
Wanted to make one of the traditional ones in time for a festival in March but it says 1-3 years to mature it.
