I'm loving game of thrones as well. Tonight's episode was class, I'm glad I didn't download it last week. It's nice to sit down on a Monday night and just watch a show on normal tv for a change. Ive also gotten into spartcus, have to say I think it is really good so far as well. Sky Atlantic really is the nuts for us tv shows.

Can anyone on here with money on Moneybookers do me a favour? Similiar to before I'm being offered a reload bonus but all my moneys on the site and it wont let me withdraw without ruining the bonus, so can anyone send me 80 euro on MB and I'll send back 85 within two or three days at the most? Would be greatly appreciated, cheers."In the world, there are many kings but there is only one God. I am God, I am El Tren" :{)

need help from the bbv. In Bulgaria for the EMOP. Wireless working in the hotel but says signal srtength low. I cant connect to any poker site (yries but comes back cant connect to server.
Is this a case of the signal isnt strong enough. Is there anything I can do manually on the laptop to help?
Obviously I can come on here and surf the net, but its 1.30am over here and I just felt like a bit of gambling!
I even went down to the lobby, but signal no stronger there.

@ Connie - I used to play on a 56k modem so signal strength shouln't be the problem.
Try turning off skype/MSN/outlook etc. You could also try a proxy server in case the poker sites are giving you a hard time becase your usual IP is now different. (from another country.). The hotel could alos have a firewall against gambling sites. Ask at reception. (a proxy server should circumvent this.)

So So tilted.
One of the lads I'm living with, don't know him that well, a friend of a friend. He moved in with us about 8 weeks ago. Sound bloke when it comes to most things but by fuck is he delusional as they come.
He has these dreams of being retired by 30. Multi Millionaire, owning his own engineering firm with other investments. Which is fine by me, dream away son. But when it comes to anything remotely like hard work, he is the laziest son of a bitch.
Some examples of his extreme laziness: Instead of cleaning the pots and pans he has just used to cook, so the next person has clean things to use, he's rather EVERYONE wash them when they need them, thus leaving them filthy until someone needs to use them. When I explained how utterly retarded this was (easier to clean stuff when its hot etc). He retorted, "sure its the same thing. Ill clean after you, X cleans after me and so on. Same logic"
Same thing when it comes to getting a job. He had no job over here when he arrived and complained about how hard it was to find work (despite the other 9 of us getting jobs within 2 weeks of properly looking). He never once left the house to look for a job, saying companies actually prefer emails and phone calls than interview and face to face meetings.
Exact same thing in the gym, despite having the wealth of knowledge of a qualified PT and 3 other lads who are well up on lifting, fitness and nutrition in the house he plainly REFUSES to lift weights or have a look at his diet but in the next sentence will despair over how he cant lose the weight. He does go to the gym, does some cardio, some arm curls and some 'ab work' and then goes home and eats a fucking pizza or a big box of chips or some other massively counter productive foodstuff 'cos I earned it'.
I just don't get it. I really don't. He could turn out to be a Homer and I'm just being a lemon sucking Frank Grimes. I'd have to lol heartily if it did come to that I guess.This may or may not be an original thought of my own.
All efforts were made to make this thought original but with the abundance of thoughts in the world the originality of this thought cannot be guaranteed.

I was planning on making a Hitchhikeresque hero post about how starting at 9:30 this evening I wrote the entire content of a commercial financial website which is going to the web developer tomorrow morning from scratch. But I'm still on the home page, sleepy, bored stupid, and reading BBV and the movie draft. How the fcuk do I let myself get roped into these things

Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide to... View Postre the fantasy books, went into a good few bookshops in Dublin two weeks ago trying to find David Eddings 'The Belgariad' series for someone, but nowhere to be seen. Haven't read it in about 15 years, but would have thought that would be in the all-time classic fantasy list. Seemingly out-of-print though.
Got the Tamuli after that and had to stop reading it cos it was terrible.
Anyone who is interested in fantasy books who hasn't read Erikson's Malazan books is missing out on the GOAT imo.

"he asked us to leave the room for a moment while he got changed, when we returned, his dirty boxers were below my pillow"
"I do not think it is appropriate to keep touching guests"
I'm sure there's plenty of nutters offering their couches up, but there's got to be even more sane people who are just chilled out and not too worried about things.
