ca_gere Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 People looking over my shoulder and asking questions about what I’m doing when I am wasting time on the internet. I’ve hated this since the internet was invented. It used to be my family and now it is my girlfriend (flatmates in between asked no questions). What’s that you’re looking at? Erm, it’s a picture of Andrey Arshavin wearing what appears to be some sort of naval officer’s hatWho’s he? He plays for Arsenal Why is he wearing that hat? I don’t really know Why are you looking at it? Someone posted a link to it on the chat site Is it meant to be funny? I suppose soWhat’s funny about it? …..HAHA! I know the feeling.Not long ago I had to explain to someone what was going on in a video I was watching... It was a guy dressed as the QWOP character at comic-con.Who's that?Just some guy at comic-conWhat's comic-con?It's a comic conventionWhat like the beano?no, it's graphic novels and anime and all that sort of stuff. People dress up. that's what this video is.What's he dressed as?It's a character from an addictive flash game that went viral not long agowhat's a flash game?....I finally just told her to forget she ever looked at my screen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ca_gere Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 TV technology.Why in this day and age do I need 3 remotes? One for the telly, which doesn't turn on the cable box. one for the cable box which has a million buttons that do fuck all and one for the dvd player. I don't use analogue tv so why does the telly revert to the aerial input when I turn it on meaning I have to press an awkwardly placed button to change it to hdmi? I finally get it turned to the cable and am channel hopping with remote number two. 60% of my channels have HD versions but whoever made the damn thing has decided that I'd like to watch everything in SD by default and press another button to get it onto HD. Ok, so i've finally found a channel I want to watch, but what's this? the volume's too low... Back to remote number one to bump it up a few notches. My show is finished and I fancy watching a dvd... remote number 3 to the rescue. Oh but of course the volume isn't the same level and remote 1 has to come in at some point. I can take a photo of something on my iPhone and it'll google that shit without me doing a thing but I've got to juggle black plastic boxes just to watch man vs food in HD. Get it sorted. Alkaline I'm looking at you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaki Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 Spin class. I don't attend spin class, I attend the gym so that I can have an enjoyable workout listening to my iPod. They've moved spin class into the main gym and even when I have my music up full blast I can still hear they're banging dance music over the top of it and occasionally they all whoop like Americans.

Paranoid Android Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Try listening to dance music that is even more banging! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaaakkkeee Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 It's the same in PureGym. It's a pain in the arse. Especially if you want to use the mats and theres a stereo up full blast next to your lug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaki Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Is that DW Gym, saw all these fancy new bikes there, that would fuck me right off.Aye, they used to have separate rooms for classes but since the refurbishment there seems to be a spin class in the main gym every evening. It was bad enough before with the volume of the music they play even when there isn't a class. I was thinking about moving to PureGym but if it's the same there I won't bother.I think I'll invest in better headphones instead. Alkaline? In ear headphones that keep external noise out?

Lemonade Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Banks O Dee gym is the same, there's a wee spin class in the corner of the main gym that's so loud you can hear it from the car park. Some spandex-clad Nazi bitch yelling motivational slogans over a Scooter track is not my idea of a good workout soundtrack. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Zooey Deschanel. - I just dinna like her at all. We get it, you're not just a pretty face, stop ramming your annoying cookieness in my face in every film you're in.I disagree with this. I love her, but I don't think she has a pretty face. However I have to pull you up on "cookieness". Surely you mean kookiness? Unless she's actually made of hazelnut and chocolate chips.

In ear headphones that keep external noise out?Usually plugs with memory foam type inserts are good for that. Koss plugs are usually fairly inexpensive and reasonably good noise isolators.

What guy has ever looked at a girl and thought "man I want to get with her tonight, that girl is so fucking TANNED!"I once had a lapdance from a stripper who snail-trailed my cream chinos (it was in the 90s) with her fake tan. I looked like someone had skidmarked my thigh. Chinos were ruined, the world was at peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
