Nintendo has done similarly silly things in the past. But it’s made from materials mined by child slaves, constructed by underpaid serfs in China and sold by minimum wage paid drones so the question you really should be asking is, “What colour is it?”
Yeah I can see it now.
Sorry, I stupidly assumed it was an old thread so searched for it on google but it wasn’t and the googleplex hasn’t added it to it’s list of things.
I think the third post was reasonably constructed and suitably to the point. How often do we find ourselves accidentally double posting? I find the problem particularly common when posting using a mobile phone. And don’t get me started about auto erection. I’m constantly having to go back and read something just to make sure I have accidentally insulted large sections of humanity as quite often auto erection changes the meaning of the post in the most subtle and silly ways.
Oh there it is
I think I can’t find the thread to read it and give an opinion.
I couldn’t get much done today because of a bloody cold that’s been running for over a week at seems to have hit it’s zenith. I’m not streaming anymore but I’ve got the choking cough stage (lucky I’m not a presidential candidate). I had to cancel my dentist appointment which I was bizarrely looking forward to (I need a bit of a tartar blitz) and I really wanted to cut the grass. But all I could do was cough, sweat and sleep really. Somehow I managed to get into a discussion with UKIPpers online about their bizarre obsession with returning gollywogs and blackface to British culture which was more draining than anything. I’m also rather tired of defending my gender against those who blame it for all the violence in the world rather than the violence itself. Men tend to do it more but they tend to be physically bigger and in positions of authority. I am now working on shrinking all humans to the same size.
Set an alarm for these sorts of things. If you are having long periods of insomnia you have to be wary of the rebound and not getting things you need to do done.
It may not ever fully go away, but it can be managed and mitigated with time and work.
It might fully go away. We don’t know yet. The point is we all need to eat and we all need to rest. Even if we don’t want to do either.
I just noticed that buzz droids look a bit like cheerleaders with pompoms. It might be fun to get them to do a Tony Basil routine.
I’m beginning to understand what the expression “envy the dead” means. God, this is fucking hell. I’ve barely eaten or slept in a day and a half.
I don’t mean this to sound harsh or uncaring but it’s the internet and text only communication can come out that way. But eat something and go to bed. Even if you don’t want to, even if you don’t sleep. Rested insomnia is less harmful than restless insomnia. Force yourself to lie in bed under cover for six hours. Don’t take the phone. If you must read something take a book. Treat food as medicine. Depression can utterly wipe out appetite but people shouldn’t eat to sate appetite they should eat for fuelling physical health. If you must combine the two take a packed lunch to bed. Something balanced and healthy. And make yourself eat all of it. And drink water. Once again even if it’s a chore. Avoid stimulants like coffee and tea. Eventually your sleep patterns will return and your appreciation of food will return but give it time. You have an illness. If you had a cold or flu you would probably lose sleep and appetite but you would probably be less hard on yourself about it.
thankyou. He has some sort of infection. CAT scan showed no signs of anymore bleeding. There are admitting him again to the hospital and treating him with antibiotics.
Sorry to keep making parallels with my friend’s situation but he too had a series of infections right after being treated in hospital. I think the trauma of a brain bleed can have an impact on immunity. He had infections in his lungs and eyes which cleared up quite quickly with antibiotics. His heart was also enlarged after the attack and all these things delayed his moving over to the recovery unit. But now he is doing fine so hopefully your dad will have similar success, if not better.
I have a cold.
The effects of which are mounting.
Runny nose, tickly cough, headache, shivers. It’s setting my skin complaints off too.
Blgggghhh!
Disappointed to find out this thread has nothing to do with Beaker from the Muppets.
Will Riker would then shout “Brace for impact”, Sulu could then say “Oh my”.
The Star Wars revival really began with the Zahn books and Dark Horse getting the comics license but it never really became unpopular. I remember constantly coming across rumours of prequels and sequels which came to nothing but sold magazines.
Sounds unmissable.
To put it simply, no. Paul McGann is wonderful as the Doctor but the absolute butchering of the character of the Master is just awful.
It’s worth checking out for completionist’s sake but go in with very low expectations.
Worse than turning him into a woman? 😉
Some of us can afford the upgrade.
I was miffed at the Eric Roberts interpretation back in the day but like Paul he does well with what he has. Which is a poor screenplay but as good as many RTD scripts and better than many JNT era ones. If I were to introduce the show to someone I’d go with something like The Eleventh Hour which is fun has many if the main concepts explained and is modern telly friendly. Then I’d encourage people to go back and forwards as the character does. It’s a mixed bag whenever you go but what the show has, it has an ethos… a life… It has…A spirit all of its own. Like a wine, it has a bouquet. Yeah. Like a good wine. You have to chose one of the vintage years, of course. 1996 was more of a generic house red. 2010 That’s a most good-humoured wine. A touch sardonic, perhaps, but not cynical. A most civilised wine, one after my own hearts.
My Dad is leaving the Hospital and going to a rehab facility. They will do both mental and physical rehab there.
Great news. My pal who had the stroke just returned from a stay at the recovery unit and I chatted to him on the phone on Sunday. He sounded happier and more like himself than he has for almost a decade. He had a few flubs… He called the recovery unit, “college” which is a good mistake as he is learning stuff there. He can walk with a frame and is beginning to write again with his right hand. I hope your dad will come back well. He may never be as he was again but in some ways he may come back better prepared for the many years of health I hope he has to look forward to. It’s going to be a bit of a challenge for yourself adjusting to the changes.
Nah… aye… how many posts have I made?
WRONG PHOTO!
Madame Tussauds said it took 10 people over 800 hours to apply the hair to the Chewbacca exhibit. I hope Adywan is not on his own with the Wampa outfit.
Maybe he wants to be alone with the Wampa. I know he is happily married but this is the 21st century, I’m not judging anyone. Cripes I still have very strange Ka D’Argo dreams.
The Killing Joke (2016).
How can something so cinematic be translated into a film which actually feels less animated than still images? The added material detracts from the story as well. Even Mark Hamill isn’t that good in this. Looks cheaper than it probably was.

Breakups can leave just as much if not more of an negative impact as a bereavement.
When you enter a relationship you merge the threads of your individual lives into a single cloth. If that has to come to an end it’s better, where possible to carefully unpick the stitches.
All the cliches about being torn up, ripped to bits, falling to pieces, they don’t come from nowhere. It’s all real human stuff.

Amityville II: The Possession (1982)
If you have to have a film like The Conjuring the first Amityville film is an obvious alternative but the second one is actually a rather intense and odd little underrated semi precious stone of a movie. A Zirconia in the rough. Cheesy but certainly worth a visit.
