Hmmm think i'll have a bit of a moan. Its 00:45 in the morning and i just can't sleep. My mum got taken into hospital earlier today and i just can't get my classic pass right. Amazon are messing me about with my royal road to card magic order and ive been waiting weeks for a pair of carp keepnets i ordered off ebay. I'm tired hungry and thirsty, but can't be bothered to get up to get something to eat, drink or maybe even pick up some sleeping pills for that matter.

Theres nobody to talk to on msn either which is just annoying which ultimately is the reason i started writing this post in the first place. Newcastle only got a draw with Man United when they probably should have won and the newcastle vipers are bottom of the elite league. Just thought i'd give you guys a laugh as this is probably the worst day ive had in a good while, andme blabbering on about everything thats wrong is the only way i can keep myself busy.

I'm going to go into some matters that annoy me on TM also or more to the point some ideas i have to fiz these annoyances. Ok so firstly I'm noticing piles and piles of people registering to TM, which of course is brilliant, but unfortunately they seem to neither post nor drop an introduction. Surely if they join it is to post, not that ihave anything against these people but if you're reading this and thinking about joining TM, the please Do :D Maybe if there was some way that new members had to post a introduction as a compulsory measure before they could post that would be great.

Apart from all of the above I'm pretty happy that i found Tm when i did. As a result of TM ive made lots of new friends and learned more than any teacher has ever taught me about magic and various other random subjects (Thanks threads that end up being based on women :lol: ) Anyways, it'swell past my "bed time" and typing this message up has made me a tiny bit more sleepy, so bye for now. Maybe i'll go to sleep, or try to get my pass better who knows.

So good morn, good eve and good night from me

Hopefully ive gave whoever may take the time to read this fodder ive posted a good laugh.

Bye :|

Ok, so now its 3 am in the morning and i still can't get to sleep for worrying about my mam. My stupid classic pass isn't getting any better and my bros stupid laptop won't let the edit button on the previous Post work for some reason. Moan Moan Moan

Hoefully tomorrow i'll be back to normal when i begin practicinga routine that Lady of Mystery very kindly suggested to me from Mark Wilson's Complete Course with Bicycles from a very kind seige. All you guys are the bestest :)

I absolutely loath the "term": lol. It just makes me want to throw my monitor of a 62 storied building. Cant people just use normal English any more?

Oh and the weather here in finland is horrible. The roads are too icy for unicycling but theres not enough snow for downhill skiing. Lifes a bore. especially with my parents complaining about me staying in and playing with my cards all day.

It has been mentioned about this before as part of forum modification discussions to keep out the secret seekers however I'm not sure if the mandatory intro has ever been separated as a single idea tho..... I'm sure someone will clarify!! But you are right, it's annoying!!

I absolutely loath the "term": lol


I can live with LOL as it's been around pretty much the whole 10 yrs I've been using net but I do hate text spk (did that on purpose) where people say "cn u mt me at de shop wit $$ n u n me cn get fd" my daughter does it all the time and it annoys me as I have to sit and decipher the whole bloody thing!! It doessn't help language skills either!!

I'm moaning today that I either go to sleep very late or get up very early unable to sleep.... getting fed up with it as I would like a normal sleep pattern back!!

I can also live witht the term 'lol' as long as it's written. When I play Guild Wars using team speak we have one person who likes to say lol. He doesn't spell it out either he says it as a word.

And a personal moan is I'm ill. And when I get ill I have really wierd dreams and just recently I've become addicted to counter strike and play it into the early hours. Now my dreams involve me running around in counter strike and everytime I get killed I wake up for a short while.

no2txt spk....it's rubbish...

anyway, my major moan for the day is realising that despite my usual extreme care with books, it seems like i've managed to throw out 7 deceptions when i last had a clear-out of some boxes...

well done me... :(

1. Lack of Nintendo Wii stock
2. The person who dumped a washing machine and sofa bed in the middle of the lane to work this morning
3. Drizzle and cold
4. Using my wife's car for work

That'll do for today

Losing my Nintendo DS case sometime between christmas and new year (I should be glad it wasn't in it at the time)
The cold weather (waking up when its dark and going to bed when its dark makes me want to hibernate)

Seige, you should try gamestation if you have one near you. I managed to get a wii friday before christmas from there.
