  1. he's a funnycunt but he's also quite mental I think. I guess the two go hand-in-hand in his case.
  2. lol he called her Abby Winters, whether accidentally or intentionally I can't tell
  3. this would be an interesting service, but would probably be cooler in a movie or tv show than reality. Honestly though, I kinda wish I could. Sorry you are going through this. Keep showing up - you're important. admit it, you´re just afraid of cleaning his popola. hey I'm WATMM's number one advocate of clean popola, you think I can't sort out my own? *gets down to business* http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kukg-BnyuGI
  4. ay lemme getcho numba gurl

  6. it's not really a conspiratorial thing. knobbery is ubiquitous and pervasive.
  7. I don't really feel I have a country. I've always felt displaced and disconnected. I like Aus but I've been here 13 years and I admit I have been thinking about relocating to get away from my present situation. maybe learn new things about myself. I don't really agree with that Emerson quote that was posted a few pages back. I mean, I can see it happening, there is definitely some truth in it about trying to escape only to find the same old you elsewhere, but at the same time I don't think the experience would be entirely without some learning and enlightenment. I dunno. ffs you can't just leave the rest of us here with him! he smells! pity there's only one to go around. maybe phling would be kind enough to let you borrow him.
  8. can someone please live my life for me for the next 30 days? take over the controls while I go for an extended break? I promise I'll return the favour.
  9. I liked 100th Window and Heligoland both. Heligoland departs from the dark electronic sound palette but in successful, emotionally-engaging ways. I'm thinking of Paradise Circus and Saturday Come Slow. I do agree with you that Mezzanine is their best work (it is freakishly good, practically anything that came after would struggle to keep up) and that having Mushroom in the crew added something to their sound that they lost afterwards. but that was a long time ago and naturally their sound has evolved, and I happen to like the evolution. I just don't think there's any way this rambling little two-track affair is going to beat both of the last two MA albums combined. there's even been one-off MA tracks since Mezzanine that I like more than this, like Live With Me. a longer and more polished collab with Burial would be another thing to judge though. one can dream.

  11. I'm sure I must have posted this before but just in case... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkKtCPuHvjg
  12. Gravity. I really liked it. I agree though that the score was kind of cheesy, mainly towards the end. but Sandra Bullock was unexpectedly great, I've always liked strong female characters.
  13. it can take a while for your eyes to adjust if you've just started wearing them. things I'd do: 1) confirm that you're actually wearing monthlies. I posted elsewhere previously about how I was sold monthlies which actually turned out to be fortnightlies. just check that they are what you think they are, as it doesn't usually say on the box. 2) try eye drops. you can get lubricating eye drops that help with dryness or irritation, they can be used to help smooth your adjusting period and eventually you'll stop needing to use them. 3) switch brands/types. which one are you using anyway? I'd definitely try eye drops for the moment. I had the same problem as you when I started wearing contacts more regularly and the drops helped. eventually my eyes adjusted.

  15. I currently live with my parents. I came home today to find out my dad slapped my mother. she was helping him find some summer clothes and accidentally dropped a suitcase on his toe which caused him to suddenly lash out. he is 67 years old, she is 61. my mum called a DV helpline, which ended up with police at the house and an AVO being taken out. they are scheduled to appear in court in 2 days. this is not exactly new behaviour on my dad's part, but it's been a while since he has physically attacked her as far as I'm aware. also police/legal action has never been taken before, and I'm both surprised and heartened at my mum mustering the courage to do so. she did the right thing and I think she should have done it sooner given my dad's long-term marital behaviour. I feel kind of heartbroken and angry and worried all at the same time. mostly angry, which I'm trying to control. I foresee some fallout from this but I can't exactly tell the nature of it. I have been struggling constantly with both my mum and my dad for some time now, ever since they returned permanently from overseas and we've been living together. it's just a mess generally and I worry both for my mum's future and my own. I don't really know what to do but I'm trying to be strong for both of us and lead us out of this. I just don't know what to do though.
