Andy 60 Posted March 1, 2017 Tasty! At work today I saw a customer's account number had "1337" and told my colleagues about it, and nobody got the reference. I guess leet is an old person thing now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted March 4, 2017 I still smile to myself whenever I see the number 1138 somewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheUnknown 39 Posted May 10, 2017 I think I need a drink due to the ginormous clusterewok that has become American government. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted May 26, 2017 Aha, well we're headed the same way if the Conservatives win the General Election that they blatantly only called early because they believe they'll get a larger majority his time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUnknown 39 Posted May 27, 2017 Yeah, but we're dealing with what you would get if the UKIP won. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted June 1, 2017 UKIP have become a bit of a joke over here really. In their manifesto they want to ban EU flags and make June 23rd (date of the EU referendum) a national holiday called "Independence Day". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUnknown 39 Posted June 2, 2017 Yeah, I've been watching the polling numbers. Good to see that Labour is surging after being behind so long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted July 14, 2017 I'm nearly at the halfway point for the novel I've been writing, and have been thinking about a pseudonym to publish under. It's harder than you'd think. I don't think my real surname is that great, and also my full name seems to be surprisingly common, so I need something with more googleability. (That has to be a word by now, surely?) Hmm...

Mara 29 Posted July 29, 2017 Eh, I don't know, there quite a few authors with common names, I think. But maybe something with initials? Finally can pop on here, after my wi-fi was being a butt, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted August 1, 2017 There is apparently a famous American inventor with the name Andrew Beard.To make it extra awkward he also has the same middle initial as me. I tried rearranging my name to use my middle name as either my first name or surname, but they ended up being authors already. I came up with a few others who for various reasons weren't okay... two of them were pornstars. I think I have one now, but I'm not 100% set on it yet.

Mara 29 Posted August 12, 2017 Congrats. I finally joined the human race, and got a smartphone. :o (Or maybe I am more inhuman now?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy 60 Posted August 13, 2017 Thanks guys. It was a very long (but good) day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUnknown 39 Posted October 17, 2017 (edited) I had a job interview. Thought it went well, but the guy said he was going to e-mail me asking for references. It's been several hours now and I still haven't gotten it. It makes me worried he was just saying that to get me out the door. Edited October 17, 2017 by TheUnknown Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted November 4, 2017 Fingers crossed it's just that they haven't gotten around to it yet. I don't think my current job ever asked for references in the end, even though they said they would. Good luck! As for me, I've been struggling with car trouble for ages, and it's finally giving up the ghost. The head gasket has gone, and I've held it together this week with a temporary fix but it's time to let go. Dropping it off to the scrap yard tomorrow. It's a bit sentimental to me really, as I bought it off my grandad a year before he passed away, so I'll be sad to see it off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
