Sorry I've been so shit at the whole commenting thing lately. I'm finding it a hard slog to adjust from nocturnal geek to 9-5 superstud.
I thought I'd had it all sorted by midweek, but then yesterday I got in from work and vegetated a little bit...making the mistake of laying in bed and watching some Family Guy. Naturally being in bed meant I fell... Read More
I've said on many occasions something along the lines of "I want a girl who likes videogames" I'm ready to admit I was wrong. They're all fucking mental. Crazy with a K (that one doesnt work so well in text)
After just 2 days of working in Gamestation I'm quickly starting to realise that there's an entire demographic of creepy geeks I didnt even know... Read More
oh dude, i know what you mean about levels of geekiness. I used to work for Gamestation too
we used to have a guy who had half a beard who would buy a playstation and then come back a week later and sell it for cash. Then he'd come in a week later and buy another playstation, and then - yes - sell it again. On and on it went. The cash prices are so shit he pissed so much money away...
or Electro-Shock Boy who sat down in the store and started to read through for an hour the manuals of Master System games that someone had left in the boxes.
lol - could i be any more of a washed up old man wanting to recount my old Gamestation days?
You know, I often make silly comments about how I'm a bitter husk of a person but I really don't think its all that true.
Valentine's Day never seems to really get to me in and of itself, mostly because its one of those things I don't really agree with anyway. Even if I did have a girlfriend I'd probably just make some cynical remarks... Read More
Heh, I reckon that they don't like to think of it that way. Everyone likes to think they're number 1. Oh don't worry, I'll make sure that the best they can be is number 2.
Get it? Do you? I'm so fucking funny, I reckon I should be on stage...
your hair suits you blue/black hair rules, i had it for ages and am pale and it never looked too bad, i don't think anyway!
think i'll have to go watch hot fuzz again at some point, keep meaning too! gotta to make time for the brilliance tho!
Recently I'd been doing really well in trying to clear my overdraft. For some reason since around the time I did that mansion film thingy I've not had much of a desire to buy shit. Anyone that knows me will understand... Read More
Curse my minor illness indeed, curse it to hell and damnation. What was those things the bad guys were sent off into space in in one of the Superman films? You know, those flat panel things. Perhaps we should put it in one of those.
That's right, apparently that job is mine. Went to meet the new store manager earlier on today and he seemed pretty cool. Basically said that he wasnt gonna interview me again, it wasnt worth it. He trusted everything the area manager had said to him based on my earlier interview.
Remember when i said i was on a shortlist? Turns out... Read More
i had completly forgotten about raging speedhorn but i have there first two albums so have added some songs for inspiration on the walk into work on a morning
After over a week of worrying, over-analysing and checking my emails every 20 minutes I finally received word from Gamestation. It seems that the area manager who interviewed me has since moved to another area, his replacement is currently on holiday so its left to the new store manager to get me sorted. Apparently I've wormed my way onto... Read More
So I had my interview for Gamestation Assistant Manager yesterday. I'm not actually sure how it went. Well, it went well in terms of how well I got on with the interviewer. At times we wound up straying miles from the topic at hand about topics such as whether Smokin Aces is actually a good movie. The only thing I'm unsure about is whether he... Read More
Not long ago I bumped into one of my old primary school teachers. This woman taught me when I was around 4 or 5 I think, and with it being over 15 years ago I have very little recollection of that time in my life. We had a brief conversation in passing and she mentioned something about when I was a... Read More
I like the jedi aspect of the game more than anything. Kung-fu just doesnt compare. I just got the sequel off ebay for 9.50. So ill have a crack at that bad boy next.
The comic's about a time when Johnny Cash was nearly killed by an ostrich. There's more info on the project its for and some full pages over at my blog cadwell.livejournal.com
Chris is away until sometime on Sunday afternoon. If you have anything you'd like to say to Chris before then, you can go here and then shout at your PC monitor. There's no guarantee I'll hear you but it'll amuse me to think of you all shouting stuff to yourself while I'm locked inside that mansion.
All of my dry, subversive humour has been lost for some annoying reason. That's my page on the website for Really Restrictive Shorts by the way. You know the score, get locked in a mansion, make some films. I've gone on about it way too much in the past month or so. It starts next week and as the... Read More
