This stuff is great. It’s like burning to death in a blizzard. What an age we live in.

Hey, look at that. Six months since my last post. May it last for 6 more!

game ends in 3 calls? Thank Christ.
Manchester’s disproportionate participation is depressing me. Come on people, you can do better than this.
Come on callers 3, 2 and 1!
“It’s a stack (stack gesture) race! I can’t really explain it, but it’s a race..to get the stack”
“What’s your answer sweetie?” “Thank you.” “Er, what’s your answer?” “Thank you” “Your answer..?”
blue ball?! Fuck yeah! Sounded like a granny too.
blue seven? What? Oh, blue siren. Denied.
Last caller! Woop!
Oh, there’s still 10 minutes of the show left. Are they gonna drag this out?

“Are you writing down the wrong answers?”
“Blue grass. Blue…grass. Blue grass”
“Do you know who we need for this? Bateman.”
“I don’t know the answers. Christiana doesn’t have the answers. We know nothing”
“I’m getting mixed up with winkle pickers” – points to his crotch
“Blue..bluuuue, blue. Blue blueeee, blue”

• One of the two memory modules went caput. Caused mysterious errors in Windows until it bluescreened proper and refused to boot. Even had trouble installing XP again or using a Linux live CD until the problem was narrowed down to the faulty chips.
• Next to go was the power supply. A few days after fixing the memory problem I went to turn my computer on. Immediately after I pressed it I heard a loud pop come from inside my computer and a bad smell too. Unfortunately I was impatient and it was a Saturday afternoon so I had to go to PC World for the parts. I’m not making that mistake again. PSU cost me double what it would online and they had the damn balls to charge me £16 for two kettle leads (that I’d blown by making sure that it was the power supply).
• The latest calamity to befall this hunk o’junk (gotta be careful here; it’s what I’m typing this on) happened to the video card. I noticed that the last few times I’d tried to play any games it would work for a few minutes and then completely crash the system after printing load of corrupted garbage to the screen. I figured it was overheating so I took the side-panel off only to find the video card’s heat sink and fan hanging off. I’ve fixed it back on but unfortunately I think it must’ve got toasted a bit because it now looks like my computer is having a bit of an acid trip.

I’ve not had any problems like this with PCs in years. Why must it all happen at once and why must it be when I’m in such a poor financial state? Well, poorer.

Edit: What the hell? Why did I do this?

Glad I wasn’t around to be caught in that. I’m back in the UK by the way.

Are they in league with the phishers or have they had their database compromised?
Either way I’m not shopping there. It’s not safe.
