Joe's been slack with the MEW gifs on every page rule for every page since he first posted them. Sadface.

I consider that my Christmas present from MX. Cheers Ben!

Merry Christmas internet-dudes! It's 2am on Christmas day, and I'm about to wrap some presents.

BenJammin 12-24-2011 08:05 PM

Merry Christmas! I'm sitting around with my roommates, getting really drunk and Skyping with our families back east. It's pretty awesome.

fatbandit 12-24-2011 08:18 PM

Sounds good! I think tomorrow's gonna be pretty dull after present-opening and dinner-eating. Christmas usually is! Nice to have a few days off though.

Watched Four Lions just now too. It's a right good film. Highly recommend it!

Convectuoso 12-24-2011 11:23 PM

All I want for Xmas is MEW naked, in my bedroom, gagging for it.

But I have a bottle of Russian standard Vodka instead, which suffices for now.

BenJammin 12-25-2011 02:49 AM

I hear ya, Joel/ Got fairly right sauced today, and even more tomorrow.

My boss is not going to be happy when I go to work on Monday. :lol:

fatbandit 12-25-2011 05:57 AM

I kept getting tipped in beer at work the other day. I was too polite to tell any of them that I don't drink so I just have bottles of it stacked up at home now haha :/

And MEW would be an ultimate present but she'd be better in clothes. You get all the fun of unwrapping your present then! ^___^

FunkMetalBass 12-25-2011 10:14 AM

I use 40 posts per page, there have only been a few pages. I'm not slacking THAT badly. :lol:

But here you go:

fatbandit 12-25-2011 03:30 PM

I approve. Those abs man, those abs...

Been back in touch with probably my best friend from like 5 years back recently. He only lives down the road but I've barely seen him for ages. He lives at home with one of his mates, but it turns out they're moving out on the 1st of January with two other people who are both cool too. They've asked me if I want the last double room in the new house. But they move in on the 1st January. It's a bit soon, haha. I'm seriously thinking about it though. I like being at home with all my comforts, but I'm 23, and I don't want to be here when I'm 24, if you know what I mean!

gaslight 12-25-2011 03:48 PM

Always strong arguments for both sides of moving out of home.

Pros: You're "supposed" to get out and make your own way. You'll feel better about yourself while you're struggling because you'll be able to look down on all the people who haven't moved out yet.

Cons: It's a huge drain financially to try and build any momentum in life with all the rent to pay and whatnot. Just make sure your income is sufficiently higher than your rent. Don't be paying above 50% of your income in rent. 25% would be an ideal ceiling.

fatbandit 12-25-2011 03:52 PM

I've looked at it, and they're saying it's £225 a month inclusive of all bills and stuff. I need to get some better numbers off them, cuz I want to see a breakdown of all that to see if all the water, gas, internet (I won't own a computer if I move lols), council tax, insurance is included. I'm guessing the last two wouldn't be. But when that's all in with what I pay now for food, phone, buses, other groceries etc, I think it'll come out at about £550, and I make about £800. So it isn't unreasonable or anything.

gaslight 12-25-2011 03:59 PM

550 squiggles? That's about $845 in dollaridoos, roughly $210 a week, that's pretty sweet :).

Do some play budgeting for a laugh, I always work out a lot of my accounting week to week on paper (rent/bills/tax/loans/savings/income/etc) but I'd never thought of what my food budget might be. Turns out it was a lot :lol:.

fatbandit 12-25-2011 04:23 PM

My food costs me 200-230 a month :p It used to cost more when I ate junk :|

I eat 5 meals a day with meat in 4 of them though, or else I could be considerably cheaper :/

BenJammin 12-25-2011 11:08 PM

God, that's expensive.

fatbandit 12-25-2011 11:54 PM

So worth it.

gaslight 12-26-2011 04:26 AM

My food costs a bundle haha.

I think I worked out I'm probably close to $20-$30 per day during some stretches.

I've never expressed interest in an acoustic/electric ukulele, but god is it fun! I want to learn everything in the Jake Shimabukuro catalog, beginning with this:

I wanted to try playing shamisen but I found out they make them out of cats.

If only she'd get her tits out, then we'd really have some gifs worth posting.

fatbandit 12-27-2011 05:46 PM

i'm actually fairly okay with the mystery staying intact i think

BenJammin 12-27-2011 06:26 PM

Yeah, it's one of those things. Forbidden fruit mentality, etc.

Never really understood the hoopla over that kid. Dude plays the easiest instrument known to man, an instrument that can make anyone with decent fingerpicking technique look like a god. He's THE ukelele virtouso b/c no one else wastes their time with something that is really only useful as a rhythm instrument. I realize he is probably from hawaii, but c'mon man (weird sportscenter just started doing "c'mon man!" after I typed that) graduate to mandolin already. Those things can sound pretty d@mn good solo. Maybe I could become the jake shimuwhatever of the recorder...

Joel's mad for her nupples, bru.

FunkMetalBass 12-28-2011 11:23 AM

I think I need to start doing these kinds of sweet moves on stage

Johnny Cash is awesome.

That is all.

I've never been able to walk a line into a ring of fire. That takes some serious cajones.

The fact that the guy can get sweet dubstep-esque bass sounds from two Behringer pedals (the expression and the bass synth) impresses me and makes me want them both.

What's this move? Starting the leaf-blower? I like it.

Nice to see some rhythm guitar in the spotlight. Interesting slap bass kind of style too.

Crazians.

Dude, I thought you died or something. What has been up?

And I have no idea what any of these Mary Elizabeth Winstead movies are. I just found the .gifs.
