Tesco I believe, since Safeway has now gone to pot.

[ArcLite]

Tesco, sounds like a convenience store...?

[Bartender]

A supermarket, yes.

[munky_magik]

Ahh...I didn't count on Americans :p
A convience store it is, as is Safeway untill it got bought over.

[LordDargon]

mmm...Belgian chocolate chunk shortbread and strawberry custard. The breakfast of champions* :)
*obese chunkos

[ArcLite]

You made your breakfast sound like something magically delicious, yet it can be bought in the good ol' local convenience store. However, I bet it is good as hell, especially for as hungry as I am right now.

[munky_magik]

*obese chunkos

*is only 12 stone*

.....*doesn't know what that is in any other units*

[Iron Man]

Edit: Wow, converters are stupid.

[munky_magik]

I think it's about 76 kilos, or a little over 200 pounds.

I leave the obeseness to the rest of the UK, since they seem to have the problem covered so well.

[Bartender]

There's only 14 lbs in a stone, I think, so that's not over 200. Even if it's 16 and not 14, thats 192 lbs.

[LordDargon]

...alot.

[LordDargon]

Wait, if it's 72 kg, that's less then me and is nowhere near 200 lbs. D.amn you Iron Man!

[Iron Man]

There's only 14 lbs in a stone, I think, so that's not over 200. Even if it's 16 and not 14, thats 192 lbs.

Wow. I guess I can't rely on the internet for anything right nowadays. Sorry about that.

And I should have noticed the converter didn't even match the pounds/kilos ratio right. That's my bad, because I know 72 kilos is only like 170 lbs.

[Bartender]

No problem. It's all that damn internet's fault.

[LordDargon]

So much easier to use, and I'm forced to use it in physics class anyway.

Midlife Crisis was on GTA:SA :P

[LordDargon]

Midlife Crisis was on GTA:SA :P
Reign in Blood, Madhouse, 2 minutes to Midnight and Peace Sells were on GTA:VC. I played the game for hours and hours with my friend, but none of them ever came on except for 2 Minutes once.

[Bartender]

I don't remember Peace Sells being on Vice City's radio. Maybe I'm just tired or something, but I'm pretty sure it's not there.

EDIT: Oh wait, yeah. Sorry.

[Iron Man]

Reign in Blood, Madhouse, 2 minutes to Midnight and Peace Sells were on GTA:VC. I played the game for hours and hours with my friend, but none of them ever came on except for 2 Minutes once.

I remember all of them being played, except PS. And I wasn't saying it was a bad thing, just messing with Bartender.

[Bartender]

Well whether Peace Sells was on there or not, I'm off to bed. See you later everyone.

["5150"]

You colonials and your stupid metric system.

Everyone except America moved to metric years ago and, as someone mentioned earlier, it is a much easier measurement to use, for example in sciences such as Physics. So actually there's nothing cool about using imperial measurements. All you're doing is making things more difficult for yourself.

[LordDargon]

bye.

I'm sure I remember seeing PS in the information booklet, although as I said, I never heard it played.

If Raining Blood had come on you could be assured some destructive behaviours would have taken place :p

Wow, thats funny heh.

I am glad I haven't gotten any thing like that. And no its not being lame, its showing you care for the community that is here on the forums by enforcing the rules and helping out the mods do their job and still be able to browse the forums with out having to look at every thing.

It is just being a good member to a forum to make it better, and also shows who is respectable and reliable enough to be a mod in the future and such.

[Eitri Is Berserk]

Oh, the irony.

San Andreas soundtrack kinda sucks. The radio stations playlist is like 45 minutes long, so youre always hearing the same stuff every hour or so. It gets boring, and you're forced to move on to a different station.

[Arucard]

Yes, i could probably see myself modding these forums if asked, because i do care about them alot.

http://www.ugo.com/channels/filmTv/trailer/player.asp?articleID=12029

[jpj]

So there was a mudslide and part of the main highway was blocked, so to get to school we had to go on the windy back roads which sucks. When we get to school there are no cars in the student section and it turns out school was cancelled at the last moment and me and my brother didn't know. So yea that was kinda gay.....

[Eitri Is Berserk]

That sucks. Is it the same mudslide as in the news?

[Rasta Rocker]

did you get out of exams?

[jpj]

It's not the California mudslides if that's what you mean, and at my school you only take exams if you get suspended or miss more than 3 days. So I didn't have to take exams in the first place.

Power Metal is pretty much the only type of metal I can stand becasue they don't use harsh vocals. I like Haggard too, though at first the growling kinda got to me.

I much prefer them to growled vocals and the likes. I imagine that eventually I'll follow the same progression but I think it's still a while off.

:lol: I don't even notice growls anymore. Today when I was listening to some NYDM (new york death metal) albums that I'd listened to many times before, it hit me how deep the growls were. Your standard moron wouldn't even notice the music for the growls.

Kinda weird how so many people are turned off by growls. I remember the first time I heard a song with DM growls. I thought it was ****in' cool.

I think that after you get over the initial shock of hearing them, the more you listen to it the more likely you are to like it.
And these forums are a great gateway to new bands, which is one of the reasons why I love them.

Same here, this site introduced to almost all of my favorite bands.

[munky_magik]

That's why keeping the forums in proper order is so important. If they just descended into anarchy then they would be no use at all and people wouldn't find out anything 'cept "lolz Kirckk Hamitte is The Rockorzerz lolzz!111111!"

Edit: Runescape was the game I'm thinking of.

May as well have it stickied, it's not doing any harm for an hour and a half or so.

I have another essay to do tonight, anyway. And I'm much less confident on this one than I was one the two I did last night, so considering how little I had in them, that's really not much confidence at all. So in about five minutes, I'm going to go find some breakfast, to steel myself for the task ahead.

And on a side note, that ATDI guy in the Radiohead thread is incredibly annoying.

Don't worry, it's my parents money that I'm using up. Not the state's.

it's the only way :chug:

[Bartender]

Bloody mother's boy. :)

(Face it Bartender, you're some kind of bludger)

I don't have to work, and will have no loan to pay back at the end of University, yet am getting through University without any trouble as far as money goes.. a successful bludger? A happy bludger? :)

Wow, some one asked if Judas Priest was death metal in the death heads thread... :lol:

Congratulations.

Riva, why aren't you on MSN?

[ArcLite]

Good morning gentlemen. Whats happening?

[Bartender]

I'm still struggling on with this essay. I've done rather ridiculously little work on it so far, considering how long I've spent doing it. What are you up to?

[ArcLite]

Is this the same essay you were talking about like 3 days ago? I'm at work as always, not doing anything.

[Bartender]

Nope, this'll be a different essay. Last night, I did two essays, which were in for what is now yesterday. Now I'm doing the third, which is in for what is now today.

It's taking so much longer, though, because it's much more difficult (for me) than either of them was.

[ArcLite]

Yeah I don't miss school at all. What class would we be dealing with here? If its:
TOBACCO THEORY 101
CONTEMPORARY ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION or
GUITAR SKILLS PROCRASTINATION

Then I can help you out quite a bit.

[Bartender]

Sadly, it's Introduction to the Philosophy of Religion. Should Abraham be admired? is the question. Thanks for the offer, though.

[ArcLite]

Ouch, I see where that can hurt. Abraham, what was his deal again, something with his sons? By the way, do have any way giving back neg rep received, cause I got neg repped over a harmless joke.
http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?p=6231149#post6231149

Post 4995. He neg repped me for saying that. I mean come on, have a sense of humor ehh?

[Bartender]

It wasn't Lord Abortion who neg repped you for it (I just checked), but I won't say who did. I don't think it's fair. They shouldn't really have done so though, no.

Abraham was the father of faith, and also the father of Isaac. God told him to take Isaac to the top of a mountain in Moriah and kill him, as an offering to God. Abraham took him there, and got so far as drawing the knife in preparation, before God, via an angel, told him he didn't really have to kill him, and provided a lamb for sacrifice instead. And, with reference to Kierkegaard and Kant, I have to discuss whether Abraham is admirable.

It's a 1,500 word essay too, which is annoying, even though it's not particularly long. 1,000 words I can deal with; it's a little short, so you have to condense your points and such, but I can usually manage it fine. But a 1,500 word essay is annoying, because it means you can't just do 1,000, but the extra 500 doesn't give you enough leeway to really expand on what you would have done for the 1,000. Stupid essays.

[ArcLite]

I'd say he difinitley is. I mean, his faith was so strong that he was willing to kill his own son for God.

[Bartender]

That's (vaguely) what Kierkegaard thinks. But from the point of view of morality and ethics (and Kant), Abraham is just a murderer.

Think about it; many priests extol the greatness of Abraham's actions (hence, the father of faith) in sermons and such, because he was strong enough not to shy away or deny the task set to him, depsite the difficulty it brings, because it was set him by God. But imagine what, for example, those same priests would think if they caught wind that a member of their own congregation was planning to follow Abraham's example. As Kierkegaard put it, the preacher "perhaps would go to the man, he would muster all his ecclesiastical dignity and shout "You despicable man, you scum of society, what devil has so possessed you that you want to kill your own son?"

And so, it is debated.

[ArcLite]

Ah, interesting. I didn't think of it that way. He wants to please God, but at the same time is committing a horrible sin of murder. The question is definitley raised. Well, obviously you have to present both sides of the issue, but if it were me, I'd kill him. And I say that with truth. By the way, where is everyone? If people don't start posting a bit, it's going to be a long night.

[Bartender]

I've no idea. It's getting to the point where no one is online. 7:18am for me, so it's mostly too early for people where I am and in Europe, and it's mostly getting too late for people in America, both East and West. It's coming up on 5pm in Australia, so they should all be starting to come on in the next few hours.

I would post more about this Abraham thing, but I suddenly realised I'd rather be typing it into my essay, than onto MX.

[ArcLite]

Yeah I was gonna say, with all this time your taking telling me about you could be knocking it out. Well, I'll leave you to it, hopefully some people will trickle in here.

[^Dream~Theater^]

Well, just got home from the Slipknot concert and i must say, WOW, they did a very good job. Unearth couldnt really get the crowd into it but one of the guitarist's did a very nice sweeping solo with his guitar behind his head. Killswitch played a solid set and as soon as Rose Of Sharyn hit, thats when the pit erupted. Slipknot comes on, Needless to say, the pit never died once during their whole set and only got more intense as it went. Corey also stopped in the middle of Spit It Out to do his "I want everybody on the floor and no one rises till i say Jump the **** up". I got elbowed very nice in the side of the eye, got leveled numerous occasions and got my glasses broken, but it was well worth it :thumb:

[ArcLite]

Sounds like a hell of time. Wish I could see Killswitch sometime. Saw the Knot at Ozzfest and yeah, it got crazy. I escaped without injury though.

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

I saw Slipknot earlier this summer...it was alright. They put on the same show that they did on the DVD pretty much though...

But Slayer blew them away, even though they got on first heh.

Any one still around?

[Bartender]

I'm here. Essay's done, I'm just relaxing for a bit (singing along to untr00 songs) before going in to hand it in. I think I'll go look for some CDs to buy afterwards too, as a reward for actually getting them all done in time.

[ArcLite]

I'm here for 3 more hours. Glad you got that essay done.

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

You buy alot of cd's heh, got alot of cash aye?

I am bored. so I think I am going to continue watching Naruto...

[Bartender]

This specific money is Christmas money to waste :) My New Year's Resolution is to try and buy more CDs this semester than I did last semester.

cj - thanks.

[ArcLite]

I have a severe CD buying addiction, kills my finances. But I need to buy my Ensiferum CD's this week. So much money, but so much enjoyment. Saving isn't any fun.

[Bartender]

Yeah, saving is pointless. I'm 19. What do I need to save for?

[Jondur]

Don't even go there. If I'd had a bit more sense at your age I wouldn't be struggling so much now.

[ArcLite]

What is Baphomet?

[Jondur]

And yes I know I sound like your dad.

[Bartender]

Well you're not quite that old. Anyway, I know it's a bad attitude to take, I just can't bring myself not to justify my buying more music.

[Bartender]

What is Baphomet?

Where's Legions when you need him?

I'm not entirely sure, to be honest. Depending on your source and such, it could just be this thing in my avatar, or it could be a goat-headed deity. I think it was worshipped by the St John's Templars at some point, for which they were excommunicated and persecuted. Or something like that, anyway. Like I say, others seem to have a crystal clear understanding of everything it is, which I don't.

[LiZZySkYnRd7^]

Yes, this is all to tr00. Which is a good thing...

Which also reminds us, don't piss off SubtleDagger.

And yet my account lives to tell............with a few extra rep points for my efforts...

[LordDargon]

Wow, some one asked if Judas Priest was death metal in the death heads thread... :lol:
:lol:

At least he didn't pretend to be a death head, like that other poseur that came in with all his metalcore crap.

EDIT: Yeah, Baphomet is some sort of demonic goat thing. I think the cover of Behemoth's Zos Kia Cultus is supposed to represent that?

I will tell you what is even more of a pain in the ***. That I changed my computers password and then forgot what it is. :upset:

[Riva]

Well, I worked all yesterday from 9-7 (on a casual rate :thumb: ). The upside was I got a whopping paycheck out of it.

So I promptly went late night shopping with my girlfriend, saw Meet The Fockers at the movies, and purchased myself:

The Cult - Pure Cult: The Singles 1984-1995
Lynryd Skynyrd - Skynyrd's Innyrds
The Allman Brothers Band - Eat A Peach (All the classic rock regulars excited my interest in the polls)
Jeff Buckley - Grace: Legacy Edition (Featuring the original album, plus alternate takes and previously unreleased songs, and also a Making Of DVD.)

I was and am still a happy man.

Also, I had a spiritual experience on the way home.

A wise man once told me: "You know what... music kicks arse, and that is why everything is going to be okay."
Well, on my way home, singing along to Fire Woman, I remembered this, and couldn't help but get this big grin on my face. All music is so ****ing awesome, it's incredible. In fact, I was so busy headbanging, singing and slapping my hands on the wheel, that I nearly failed to give way on a roundabout. :eek:

But yeah, awesome night. :)

[^Dream~Theater^]

Bio test got moved from tommorrow to Monday! Thank god for that

[Riva]

Nice one...and some great albums there. Obviously Grace is pure brilliance from start to finish (don't have the legacy edition), Eat A Peach is very good as well, although I prefer Live At The Fillmore by the Allmans, and...well everyone likes Skynyrd, don't they? How was the film, by the way? And congratulations (or whatever you're meant to say in times like these) on the awesome night. :)

Thankyou, and I shall send you disc two (the unreleased songs, etc.) over MSN when I get my download/upload back to unlimited.

Also, the film was very funny. Not as good as Meet The Parents, but sequels rarely are as good as the original. Still, very funny, especially when things really get swinging. :)

[RNR]

Skynryds Innyrds is good because Skynryd has just enough good songs for a best of album :thumb:. It only cost me $10 too.

Eat a Peach and Grace kick *** too ;). Some of my favorite cds.

*starts plotting the Jeff Buckley appreciation thread*

I would post in that.

[^Dream~Theater^]

Med,
Did you have a chance to listen to those DT tracks i sent?

[Riva]

Let's hope that AtTheDriveIn doesn't. :)

[superpeer]

Night guys. :wave:

[jpj]

I would post in that.
I would too if I'd ever heard Jeff Buckley :(





And Eat A Peach is easily the best Almman Brothers album :thumb:

Omfg, its teh Ramsey! :eek:

I would post in that as far as appreciation goes. Not adoration though.

Hey everyone. Hi Ramsey. 'night, Superpeer.

Nice choices, Riva :)

[munky_magik]

I like how you manage to answer so many posts only using one. It must take a bit of effort.

[Silenius]

Yeah, Baphomet is some sort of demonic goat thing. I think the cover of Behemoth's Zos Kia Cultus is supposed to represent that?

The baphomet is a inverted star called a pentagram that mocks Jesus, being as he was the lamb that died for mankind, thats all I know about it. And it has hebrew letters around the outside on the tips of the star sometimes.

[Bartender]

I like how you manage to answer so many posts only using one. It must take a bit of effort.

I should really answer them one at at time, for the postcount. I must be getting lazy.

is that; you are getting lazy? or laziness is something you must achieve?

[^Dream~Theater^]

Laziness is a trait that was innate to me.

Dirty bastards...why would you worship something that glorifies evil...i just don't get it, and quite frankly i dont care

[Silenius]

Who ever said I worship it, it is just so closely connected to Black Metal that I know stuff about it.

[Rasta Rocker]

I didn't say you did, im just incoherently ranting

[Bartender]

is that; you are getting lazy? or laziness is something you must achieve?

Well, laziness is a desirable aim for me. But this is a different style of laziness, which is bad :)

How was your day, anyway?

[Bartender]

Dirty bastards...why would you worship something that glorifies evil...i just don't get it, and quite frankly i dont care

Given the explanation you were quoting, how do you figure it glorifies evil?

My day's been fairly hectic what with running around school doing bits of my UCAS application here and Geog Essay there. My mum decided to start speaking to me again since I might actually get my application in on time so it hasn't been all bad :)

EDIT: I almost forgot to ask about yours:eek: how was your day?

Ah, UCAS applications..

:)

My day's been okay. Stayed up all last night doing my Religion essay, got it finished about 10am, and went to hand it in an hour or so later. Then, to "reward" myself, I stopped off for a little CD shopping. Came home, went to bed, woke up and now I'm copying the CDs to my computer. So it's been pretty good.

[munky_magik]

So what did you get aside from OK Computer?

[Bartender]

My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
Between the Buried and Me - The Silent Circus
Bolt Thrower - IVth Crusade
Bob Dylan - Desire
Bod Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited
Mastodon - Leviathan
Possessed - Seven Churches
Refused - The Shape of Punk to Come
Brutal Truth - Extreme Conditions Demand Extreme Responses

[munky_magik]

Your cd shopping> mine. Though I don't need any more right now, Earth vs. The Wldhearts hasn't left my cd player since I got it :)

[Silenius]

Mastodon - Leviathan
Possessed - Seven Churches

I've wanted these for quite some time now.
