  1. Did you get a link to his profile sent to you aswell? It's a bit of a crazy story. If I was on his friends list and noticed that bulletin, I would have no idea whether he was being serious or not. But turns out it was true. Even MySpace has a sinister side.
  2. Nicole Kidman, Jack Kerouac. Hmm. I put throught a photo of Anna Kournikova, and it said Anna Kournikova was a 70% match. As was Emma Watson, Hermione from Harry Potter.
  3. I walk through town in Glasgow after the clubs close every night and have never seen any trouble. Once, someone made a comment at another guy, who wasn't too happy, but thats the worst I've seen. I feel alot more comfortable wondering around with the Glasgow drunks than I ever did with Aberdeens drunks. In the clubs it's a different story though. I work for the CPL group, as bar staff at the Cathouse, but I can be moved around from time to time to cover staff absenses in CPLs other clubs. I was working a club called Tunnel last night and it's basically a cross between every awful club in Aberdeen, minus the good points. The customers were all stupidly drunk pretentious twats, and after witnessing 3 full-on brawls inches from the bar, I was told we'd had "a quiet night". I'd also wager every girl in heels there fell over at least twice through the night. Perhaps I'm just bitter that I have to stay sober.
  4. Judging from the shambolic efforts to appear 'emotional' and 'distraught' during his VT, I'd say yes. And a crap one at that. "I just had to stay for Shayne... I couldn't let him down. I also speak fluently from my arse." Who spells Shane with a 'Y'?... Honestly.
  5. Matchbox 20 Smashing Pumpkins Led Zepplin The Eagles Guns n' Roses The Eels Perhaps The Postal Service (based on the post man.)
  6. The big tub of 'almost butter' in my fridge just now is called "What, Not Butter?!" It's great. I can't beleive the assistant manager of The Cathouse is only 21. He told me on Saturday after I estimated him at about 35. But to make it more general, I can't beleive Des O' Connor just had another child. The man must be pushing 237 now.
  7. If you want emo to die, stop bringing it up.
  8. I'm a bar man in Glasgow's Cathouse. Bad pay (plus tips) but the job is pretty fun, and I work with good people, so it's not all bad.
  9. I spotted a good few MCR Tshirts in the Cathouse this weekend. They were pretty good when in January with Taking Back Sunday, so I'm happy to hear they did well on their own.

    Suit hire?

    If you want to appear fancy, and keep the thing, then you're looking at about 150 at least for a good suit, which isn't that bad. I didn't have a good suit for my 6th year formal so I ran to Slaters about 2 hours before and they sorted me out with a beauty for just over that. I have no idea about hiring, but as far as I'm aware Slaters probably would have a hire section. Oh, also, if you're buying a suit from Slaters, they alter it for free, which is cool. If Primark sells suits, they'll be really cheap but I'm sure they will look fine. The best point about that is that you aren't wearing clothing someone else has had on. You have no idea where it could have been before you. I saw a suit in Ted Baker which I fell in love with, but the jacket alone is about 400. Maybe next month. Erm, charity shops are always an option I guess.
  11. I'm sure there is a big guitar shop on Argyle Street... But I might be completely mistaken. Anyway, teach yourself. If you buy like a starters kit bass, like a Squier or something (About 150-180 maybe) they will usually have a little tutorial book with it. I seem to remember that being the case when I got my bass. Failing that, for some unknown reason, in my flat we have an unopened video entitled "Beginning Electric Bass with Mark Epstein". Both of us can play fine so the video is a bit useless. Actually, I have no idea where this video came from. A gift from above perhaps.
  12. I just instructed her to do so. She did. She didn't get it. And she also just tripped over, just in time before I hit send. My god.
  13. I've explained my night terrors in another thread a while ago. They're pretty scary, but I'm used to them now. They haven't happened in a while, but when they do, I try just to sleep again. I just woke up so I can't be bothered explaining them, but anyone else who has had a real night terror whilst being an adult will understand how horrific they are.
  14. A male paying for breastfeeding is in itself ironic. The fact it was outside Mothercare increases the irony of the situation, whilst at the same time making it a hell of a lot funnier.
  15. I was worried this was about the little ginger weirdo who named himself Emperor in Gene Simmons 'Rock School'.
  16. The skull is a repeating image which you will find in every chapter of the book, symbollising Stephen's journey through life, heading towards his inevitable little trip to hell.
  17. We did that a few years back, except we had a "21st Birthday Party" for a girl in 6th year. Her name may have been Leanne. But thats irrelevant. Needless to say a group of about a hundred 16/17 year old all in one bar led to everyone being thrown out at about 11 with threats of calling the police. Oh, The East Nuek... fond memories.
  18. This may be a very wrong advert I'm thinking of, but it was dark, and on just now, so that might be power cut related... Anyway, I think that was Joanna Newsom on that advert. But you might be thinking of a completely different advert.
  19. Mark Nicol's garden. Not that strange actually.
