  1. You don't see though that? It's so clearly a stunt! After seeing a Nike advertisement do you assume that Ronaldo and Cantona are at this moment engaged in some sort of deadly underground 5-a-side match against a host of other branded distractors?
  2. Hahaha! This thread is brilliant! You guys just keep confirming Kimy's view. This reminds me of a section of Stewart Lee's stand up: YouTube - Stewart Lee - Big Brother Scandal - 41st Best Stand-Up Ever And to even suggest that he is trolling is clearly just a hasty and sullen defence mechanism after being soundly spanked by this one:
  3. When I read your posts, sinister music plays in my head. Like there's something unsettling and ... well, bad going on. Still, I'm sold. Where do I sign to join the Cryptic Cult of Uplifting Ideals?
  4. Yes. You were a fan aswell? They made a seriously beautiful Roganjosh and a stunning Madras. Oh and their peanut dip appetiser was amazing! I used to look for any excuse to go there. Lunch with my mum, nights out, birthdays; I even had one for Christmas last year! The last night I went was after I had worked up an appetite at the Ale festival and introduced my friend to it. The next time I had trouble booking, but led a bunch of mates to Bridge Street only to find it was gone! I was sickened. Do you know of any other Kama quality indians in Aberdeen? I can eat just about any Italian, but I can't eat a poor indian. It has to be Kama quality or nothing!
  5. Who am I to judge? Well, I'm me to judge. Also, you defeat your own logic by saying that I should have left it for someone else to steal by saying that you took a guitar. Why not let someone else steal it? Anyway, my point is not about utility, what I did was wrong, but I did it anyway.
  6. Didn't you say that she had a complete lack of morals? I find that more offensive than being called a cock.
  7. With one ammendment: Casa Gabrielle at night. Their lunches aren't so great, but they are excellent at night. Great wine aswell. My choice for this thread would have been the Kama indian resteraunt, but it has shut down. I'm still devastated.
  8. You can learn great techniques in a couple of lessons, but I'd say if it's worth doing, it's worth doing for at least a year. It can be quite an embarressing experience at first, but I got lessons for a year and found that after I managed to man up and engage properly with my tutor, that I learned techniques that I use everyday now. You never stop learning aswell. The value of breathing properly, warming up, range recognition and other such things all contributed to my being able to sing better, for longer. Hmmm. Sounds like a Duracell advert.
  9. I can imagine that if I saved the life of someone's child at sea, I would be accompanied by a sense of satisfaction and experience an ephemeral buzz of moral worth. But handing in lost property doesn't give me any of those feelings. It is such a reflex action to hand it in that I've come to fully expect it of all humans to do the same thing. I lost my wallet once near King Street and found it the next day at my local bank (with all my shit, 70 included, still inside). Whoever handed it in left their address and name so I thanked them, though not with cash, they should hand it in out of the principle of the thing and not for the hope of reward. The only time I have ever contradicted my own principles was on the 305 bus one day a few years ago. An intimidatingly large group of ridiculously disruptive high schoolers were sitting behind me. They were spitting, throwing stuff, shouting so loud I could barely hear my own music (on my headphones!) and crucially, they were playing "Bonkers" songs on their fucking mobiles. Not fun when I had a raging migraine. They eventually left and I sighed with great relief, but imagine my sense of cosmic justice when I noticed that one of them had left their phone! That went right in the fucking bin. Didn't think twice.
  10. Yeah we have played a couple of gigs for you (in fact I have a niggling feeling that we never collected our fee for one of them) and would happily contribute a song.
  11. Actually, yes and he owns you.
  12. You guys all own me at whisky knowledge, but I thought I'd leave this here. Whiskies of Scotland, Scotch Whisky My mate works there and his dad is a manager. It has some great guides and information for tasting tours etc.
  13. "So guys, how was your day?" "It had it's ups and downs..."
  14. Why can't you idiots all just eat each other?
  15. It took me a few months to regain any incentive at all for writing music after I heard Synthacon 9. It felt like I had been raped by a god. I mean with the Analord collection he simply uplifts and inspires with great, great music, but with the Rushup Edge E.P he is just fucking you in the ass with one great moment after another. It hurts.
  16. Protip for next year everyone: If you don't like "wacky" students, don't go out drinking on the one night of the year where people are supposed to dress up in "wacky" costumes and act "wackily".
  17. I like the beats a lot more than the music, but as you have said, it's early days. I reckon you should try and develop the 80s sounding tom-tom beats, being careful to stay on track and not to meander into The Tuss's well marked territory.
  18. But everyone here is discussing which wacky costume they are going to wear!
  19. I find it hard to get on with singers who are obsessed with letting the listener know which country they are from.
  20. Yeah I agree. I love dressing up, but I hate ... people. Also what's with the generic hate for students?
  21. It was probably rented especially for that photograph.
  22. That's actually an established theory in moral philosophy, but not the most radical one by a long shot. There are some excellent arguments to say that having kids at all is morally wrong. Have a look. Parenthood and Procreation (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
  23. Alice in Wonderland. After the King James Bible and the works of Shakespeare, Alice in Wonderland has contributed more words and phrases to the english language than any other book.
