Technically speaking I'm not sure it's a problem if you can decide if you want to have it or not.

You know there may actually be a link between you and forgetfullness because once again I forgot what my next point was. Maybe I'm having a stroke or something?

OH WELL.

Wow, you're really missing the sarcasm this evening. I'm going to stop it now.

Interestingly, I haven't had any alcohol since... Dear God it may actually have been the whisky I had at Hogmany, that was five months ago. This would be an achievement if I was an AA member, but I've never had a problem with alcohol - maybe the trouble is that I don't drink enough alcohol?

I find it hard to read text on our conversation page though, because Lightning and light blue hurt my eyes

See, I get that networking is an imporant factor in any sort of recruitment but there's obviously some sort of sliding scale involved. It just so happens that I've chosen a career where there are actually relatively few jobs in existance, they throw out figures like 'Call of Duty took a staff of 300, four months to make' and stuff like that and it sounds impressive. But that's only 300 jobs, and... um...

I actually lost my train of thought when typing. That's a bad sign, even going back over the paragraph to read what I was going to say hasn't refreshed my memory.

Also: GOD, KYRA, WHY DID YOU HAVE TO CHANGE SO MUCH WHEN YOU JOINED THAT STUPID GROUP, IT'S LIKE I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO YOU ARE ANYMORE.

Basically the situation is that to get a job as a designer you need to have either the perfect networking strategy of industry professionals or previous experience. Tunisia = guarunteed experience, since I have the job already - also I suppose it is a worldly adventure. Internships and stuff exist but maybe one a year appears in the country, it's very difficult to break into.

Two slips today then, I am catholic. I can accept that you don't have the same beliefs as I but be a bit nicer, eh?

The humour was fine of course, remember that British humour is just humour in Britain. More to do with David Walliams and Matt Lucas dressing up in blackface and brownface to portray certain characters - which they did before in Little Britain anyway. It would be very weird to have a show set in London without having a racially diverse cast, and it was a white-comedy duo playing most of the parts so it was almost bound to happen.

No I'm not a missionary silly, I'm a game designer. Absolutely cut throat.

The religion was sarcasm because people know I practice religion despite being a game designer. In a group of around 120 developers, I was the only one with any faith at all.

I've actually been waiting for a new series of that programme, when it was first shown it got a lot criticism from some of the London tabloids because it had been really hyped by BBC1, and was premiered on Christmas day, a lot of people didn't like it though and thought some of it was racist or childish. But that's what people like. And racism is such a fun word to throw around anyway.

Oh you and your ways.

That reminds me, if you ever get the chance, watch the BBC series 'Come Fly With Me', very funny with airport setting, I can't remember when it was shown maybe last Christmas or the Christmas before. Since it's British there's only like 6 episodes or something. I'm sure you have your ways of finding television programmes when they're not on the air.

I'm going to Tunisia on a work placement - nothing noble like teaching children to read and give up their heathen Gods in exchange for a catholic bible. I think it's something MMO related, but it is really just an excuse to get experience in an industry as ruthless as the film and television industry.

AIR-RAGE, AIR-RAGE.

I am momentarily non-stressed because uni finished for the year back in April. It won't start again until September although I don't think I'll be back until October, that'll be the Honours year and possibly the most stressful yet. Joy.

Also, I had no idea I appeared stressed at times. Haha.

Also I'm emigrating for a few months to north Africa, in 10 days time. That's stressful but only through thoughts rather than workload. Bombshell.

I hope the mess clears up soon to. It's clear to me that he didn't consider it a fraternity, he considered it a group of the 'elite and most respected men on the forum', although I don't see what that says about those of us who aren't members of it . But yes, I see it calming down soon as long as personal attacks don't start, I'm very informed about what is going on. Very informed. Like, as informed as balls. (I never understood that phrase before, and I still don't.)

But it is, think of all the international people.

METAPHOR.

Ooh, people have baggage to. And there are baggage handlers. And customs. And the weirdos who seem to be there without any real purpose.

I'm making this work, and nobody can stop me.

I just found it odd that you joined even though you were so against me joining. That's all. But please tell me what I said that wasn't the truth.

How so?

Glad you like it haha
Aside from breaking forum rank, what have you been up to as of late?

Oh we have our moments...usually drunk posting

oh you know, making the group look any worse than we usually make ourselves. you'll be just fine though

Well it's about time

Oh I saw. Congrats...and don't **** up!
