Well, I'd expect that it will move quicker than the countdown I'm working on at the moment.

What do you think now?

You've knocked a ton off over one day. Hmm... I have no idea.

A nice shout. I'm not so sure.

Okay, personal news, that isn't worthy of a news post. I helped my friedns move house on Saturday, so spent the most part of the day shifting furniture around their two previous abodes and into the final destination. 10 hours of graft. I felt pretty shit when I finally fell in through the door. I had a soak in the tub and another drink, before catching up on some sleep.

Sunday, I hit the cricket field, not knowing what I was physically capable of. Cue me scoring 3 runs (woo!) and then going out to demolish the end of the opposition innings, with 3 wickets, for only 17 runs. We win by 64 runs and are top of the league once again!

Now today is pain day. Sat in front of the computer, I'll seize up and when I get to relax later on in front of some friends, I'll probably just conk out.

I haven't got around to listening to them.

O_O

I know...

As for bands always self titling their first album, so what?

It just seems to be very uncreative. Led Zep made a big joke out of it, naming their first four albums "Led Zeppelin I" to "Led Zeppelin IV"

I just think it's suitable for any debut album.

Another band I haven't checked out.

You should.

Yeah, I'll have to give them a shot someday.

I like.

I only had the live album, so I thought it might be nice to have at least one studio album.

Heh, is that the unplugged album? I happen to have that as well but I've yet to listen to it.

Yep, both bands are very related. Still, did you enjoy the song of theirs you heard?

Yes, it sounded good. The song in question was "Doomed Parade" by the way.

Oh yes, that is a good song. Then again, everything from The August Engine is great.

For Anal Cunt, there's "Song Titles Are Fucking Stupid", "Having to Make Up Song Titles Sucks" and "Everyone in the Underground Music Scene Is Stupid". Of course, I've never listened to them.

Other songs: "You Looked Divorced", "Technology is gay", "The Internet is gay", "The Word 'Homophobic' is Gay" or "X is gay".

And we could do so much more with those titles. Dying is gay. :P

Tomato juice. To be honest, it's really a drink that you take the morning after to recover from a long night of drinking. Hair of the dog so to speak. I just like it because it's so different and not some gimmicky sweet fruit mix drink.

I heard milk works too. Well anything that contains fat will help you get over a hangover basically, but tomato juice? That's a new one for me.

Yeah that makes sense. It's not like there are any wines that will go well with crisps or other snackfood and who would care anyway?

Yeah, after three, four, fives glasses you tend to not care how the wine tastes anymore.

Lol. Everything will taste better and better eventually.

Good combination of genres. I don't know about Alice Cooper. Last thing I heard about him was that 'he is really getting old'. Also, I'm under the impression that he actually only has a few good songs, but everybody loves him anyway :p

It's a mixed bag and the bad parts do make me want to live elsewhere.

I don't know what they are, but maybe you just feel like you want to decide things for yourself and do things your own way around the house. That's how I felt at least.

Hmm I guess after all this time you must have had enough of the game at some point.

Or maybe it's more to do with the fact that Valve don't know what they're fucking doing with the game anymore. The latest set of hats are bland and forgettable while they started to give Scout a sword, completely out of place to his character.

Oh so it's the updates that kinda turned you off? Well the hats are more of an accesory right? I wouldn't care too much about those. Giving weird weapons to characters is another thing though.

1000 posts. It's an achievement in my book.

Going to take quite a while to reach my previous highest rank (146)
And quite a great deal longer to finally make it into the top 100.

It just shows Valve mostly care about the gimmicks in the game. There are still many glitches for them to fix and all they give a damn about are fucking hats.... Well, at least Meet the Medic is coming.

Excellent work!

Going to take quite a while to reach my previous highest rank (146)

It sure will, I'm #141 right now and from the looks of things I may not even get a rank up on the next EXP update. Consider that and how many active users are between the both of us (hell, there's enough highly active users between myself and Auz), it will be a very long time until you recover your rank. :(

And quite a great deal longer to finally make it into the top 100.
Oh well, all in due time.

Heh, now that will be even tougher. Coop should reach the top 100 by the end of the year whereas myself could take an additional two years just to get there. Oh well, better hope more users drop out from depositing.

Yep, I think it will all end on Friday. Maybe Thursday if I stay focused. I did lose concentration last night after picking up random songs for my iPod.

Gold whistle; just noticed it now. I guess it was that guy posting the chain-lettres that got me it. I am one step closer to deity.

Not good enough!
I have nothing against self titled albums in general. But I think there are way too many bands out there that take the easy way out and self title their debut album.
Weezer take the cake in that department. They self titled their first and their third album, without even adding numbers to it. You can only see it's a different album because the first one has a blue and the third one has a green cover.

Heh, is that the unplugged album? I happen to have that as well but I've yet to listen to it.

Also did anyone else notice yesterday that a lot of audio reviewers suddenly had a drop in audio reviews? wyldfyre1 dropped from 3,051 to almost under 3,000. Most others just seem to have lost 5-10. Guess it might have have been someone we all did a review for at one point.

It's probably irrelevant, because it happened a while ago, but Xarnor recently had his account deleted and he was among the top audio submitters. He had 221 audio submissions.

I think it's more for all the varying spices like pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and Tabasco sauce that really tingles the senses that helps distract from your hangover.
