New rant:

 

When you download 10gb worth of movies and then see them failing to extract due to CRC errors and there isn't enough PAR files to recover <_<

Dunno what ###### me off the most, that or downloading a movie and when i go watch it turns out that it's a troll release made of swedish midget porn from the 70's :angry:

But you keep it anyway :P

 

To be honest why did you download all 10gb at once? Usually i find that with films it is best to do each one one at a time, that way you can cancel off the ones that don't work.

Actually those were just 2 "films", the first one was the compilation of the Matrix Trilogy and the other the new Harry Potter movie for my little sister, i only download 720p or 1080p files so they are always huge.

 

 

And now i downloaded a different version, 6.8GB, and the damn thing also failed ... god damnit <_<

Parcel Farce - this may explain some of their failures.

Had a card through the door from them, no details on it, so gf and I popped off to pick it up.

She stayed in the car while I went in.

There was a young lad called William in front of me and the bloke behind the desk was having trouble finding his package.

Eventually he came back with a box, took William's ID, and promptly asked "Who's Billy?" when looking at the label on the box.

The lad said it was him, he'd registered on the website as Billy, and the bloke looked like he wasn't sure if he should give the box to someone with a different name and started to reach for the phone, I guess to ask his supervisor, so I piped up "Billy is short for William"

I was believed and the lad got his parcel.

Seriously, how do you not know Billy is short for William?

Because you're a barely-literate moron working a minimum-wage job for a third-rate courier company? <_<

 

Or...

 

He's a Judge Dredd wannabe (Stickler) and sticks to the rules, no matter what.

 

 

 

Dredd:- "Where's your I.D. with Billy on it citizen?"

 

William:- "Its a short version of William, Judge Dredd..."

 

Dredd:- "5 years Aspen pinal colony for fraud, creep"

More like execution.

 

Can't be as great as the time i phoned up when they gave me a 'customs and handling slip' for my PPK/s. I phoned them up and told them that the customs fee was £8, however i didn't tell them that it also said £13 handling charge. So they guy does his payment thing and tells me my package will be delivered tomorrow. Turns up and all is well.

 

I get my usual monthly card statement through and they have only charged me £8, not £21 as they were meant to. To this day they have never asked for a £13 payment. Sometimes it pays to have stupid people on the phone, trust me this guy sounded like he needed to resit his Year 6 exams.

Anyway my new rant: Next doors cat. Not only is this cat fat but it had the audacity to come over into my backyard, go into the outdoor cats own greenhouse and steal all the food we lay out for them. It even watches me from afar when i go out to put the cat food in the greenhouse. If only i still had one of those remote airsoft claymores that were spring based and could put some .12g's and a bit of flour to freak the cat out, might stop it getting to my cats food. Especially as my cats are frail and undernourished.

Well i do happen to have 2 actual CPL certified traps. Will have to bait them and then will see what i will do from there.

 

Someone suggested that i put it on the A90 in the trap and see how long it lasted :unsure:

 

I don't like cats but they are my Dads so have to put up with them :( Would prefer a dog.

*beep*.

 

Right there we go now lets move onto something else.

 

My new rant: Ann Summers (no not as bad as you think). Right now why the hell is an underwear item for the GF about £30 minimum and about £50 for the set. I can go down to any number of other high street shops and get the same thing for £20 for the set and it is going to last just as long. I mean what bloke is actually in the middle of watching his GF strip off for him and says 'is that a new look / primark / debenhams tag i see'. No he is thinking 'seriously things can't get any better unless her sexy mate / co-worker were to join in'.

 

So why is it so frigging expensive. <_<

 

Haha, i put lady garden and *beep* is the best you lot could choose as the filter name. :P

Wouldn't buy underwear from Anne Summers mate, far too tacky. La Senza's good if you want to splash out but my ex had some lovely stuff from primark. Don't see the point in spending megabucks on underwear that looks the same as the cheaper lacy stuff myself. I think it's more a 'hey, under my clothes I look fantastic' ego boost for the lady rather than spending that amount on us ;)

I often find it depends on the spender.

 

If it is the guy then it is 'hey i want to see my missus in something different and sexy'.

 

If it is the girl then it is 'hey i look good under all this'.

 

Too be honest i have never really got sexy underwear as an idea. It is like when you were young and got your first games console. It could have been in brown parcel wrap but you didn't give a *suitcase*.

 

I prefer the present to the wrapping any day :P

 

Agent Provocateur, figleaves and bravissimo are good places to get lady pants.

 

Is that your other halves recommendations or your own ;)

 

Personally i have only ever bought from Primark for an ex, it was cheap and it was going to be torn off anyway.

I think mine looks better in any pants that isn't a thong. I hate thongs. Stupid things.

 

 

Rant: spontaneous nosebleeds. I've not had one in 10 years until today, and I was right out in the field with only a medic armband to wipe it on.
