somebody "artfully" placed those digestives there?

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 12:38 (seven years ago) link

am having flashbacks to my last visit to Citizen's Advice

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 12:39 (seven years ago) link

i regret posting this tbh the lack of plate is triggering me big time

r|t|c, Sunday, 29 January 2017 12:39 (seven years ago) link

i assume it's just shadow but the upper biscuits look different to the base biscuit

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 12:40 (seven years ago) link

they look like they've got a milled edge like certain kinds of shortcake

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 12:41 (seven years ago) link

lol i've just seen the mug on top of the filing cabinet

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 12:42 (seven years ago) link

good spot, the bottom is a digestive and the uppers are ridged shortcake

r|t|c, Sunday, 29 January 2017 12:45 (seven years ago) link

wondering if they had some fake tactics drawn up on the whiteboard and eventually rubbed them off cos it was "too much"

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 12:47 (seven years ago) link

just realized Adam Davies's Adam's apple is fucking huge

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 12:47 (seven years ago) link

note also proper black pleather briefcase flush with cabinet just visible in corner

r|t|c, Sunday, 29 January 2017 12:50 (seven years ago) link

oh yeah, presumably that contains the bundles of twenties that constitute his signing-on fee

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 12:52 (seven years ago) link

why wouldnt you start with the digestive tho. driving me mad

r|t|c, Sunday, 29 January 2017 12:59 (seven years ago) link

he's got nothing to dunk it in because some idiot's moved his mug on top of the filing cabinet

this whole thing is like some Magritte-esque deconstruction of an office

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:00 (seven years ago) link

Barry Taylor wearing a pretty weighty sov by the look of it, mark of a guy you can trust

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:02 (seven years ago) link

wondering if the blue bic being used to sign the contract isnt a bourgeois artistic overstep

r|t|c, Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:03 (seven years ago) link

guys this is too much quality for a sunday lunchtime

Check the BNM Pitchfork track review, it says Weezer too (imago), Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:04 (seven years ago) link

not suggesting barry would be a mont blanc man but he'd def maybe have a set of parkers on his amazon wishlist

r|t|c, Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:05 (seven years ago) link

i think maybe he did before, but it blew up in and ruined his previous jacket and her indoors rebuked him for his folly

so transportive is this image that i genuinely did a double take thinking it was 3pm on a tuesday

r|t|c, Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:10 (seven years ago) link

only just realised it looks like Barry's rocking the sports jacket and jeans combo

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:14 (seven years ago) link

a look i've definitely owned myself, no side-eye intended

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:14 (seven years ago) link

second thoughts i dunno i can't see any indication of a fly on there

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:15 (seven years ago) link

yeah that got me too. blues and greys tho, not incohesive from barry

idk how many hours of my life i've spent sitting at desks like these pondering my distaste for the plastic cable hole cover thing

r|t|c, Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:22 (seven years ago) link

the cover thing has a beautiful and thoughtful consonance with the plateless biscuits tho of course

r|t|c, Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:28 (seven years ago) link

i had noted that

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:35 (seven years ago) link

also a personal association with the lucky coin i planted on the middle of my desk in Atelier Rorona this week but that was a bit abstruse

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:36 (seven years ago) link

have either of u begun to hallucinate scrubbed-out platitudes on the whiteboard yet

christ. you'll be reducing real yorkshire to that minuscule glimpse of curly telephone wire next

and rightly so

i am wondering where the computer is, shoved right back on the left-hand desk maybe, or is this the age of the laptop?

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:43 (seven years ago) link

would a circa 2013 company thinkpad fit in the briefcase? i'm uncertain

r|t|c, Sunday, 29 January 2017 13:56 (seven years ago) link

multiple lols!

calzino, Sunday, 29 January 2017 14:54 (seven years ago) link

having mulled it over for a bit i am ruling out the thinkpad as a credible enterprise solution for barnsley football club

thinking either they're contractual incentives for davies (one every 30 appearances perhaps) or barry has a private ritual where takes the 2 packs out of the drawer upon arrival at his desk, carefully lays them out, and then marks the passage of daily time with their consumption

final digestive is the healthy option taken in an attempt to mitigate guilt as home time nears and chides of wife re expanding waistline echo louder in the memory

r|t|c, Sunday, 29 January 2017 15:39 (seven years ago) link

hard lines whichever club tried to nick Mooy off us, sadly the cutoff point for City recalling him was the first week of the transfer window :×

calzino, Monday, 30 January 2017 14:28 (seven years ago) link

luke freeman for 300k and big mathieu "matt" smith for 500k. no better than lower champo material imo but low risk in this market i spose

r|t|c, Monday, 30 January 2017 16:03 (seven years ago) link

actually i know damn well smith is pony but maybe he can be handy for washington

r|t|c, Monday, 30 January 2017 16:06 (seven years ago) link

Costa deal is done, 4 and a half years

#BristolCity have made an offer for #BristolRovers striker Matty Taylor. It triggers a release clause in his contract, I understand.

r|t|c, Tuesday, 31 January 2017 10:03 (seven years ago) link

it is bad enough they just got stuffed 5-0 by the cobblers, but that will give them some gaseous nausea.

calzino, Tuesday, 31 January 2017 10:36 (seven years ago) link

tiago ilori to reading for 4m is still the iconic jan 2017 window signing imo, but norwich buying yanic wildschut off wigan for 7m comes v close

r|t|c, Tuesday, 31 January 2017 11:26 (seven years ago) link

rollin my eyes wildschut

nxd, Tuesday, 31 January 2017 11:36 (seven years ago) link

Gah, thought you were having a laugh abt Wildschut, but no... Xp

Le Bateau Ivre, Tuesday, 31 January 2017 11:38 (seven years ago) link

ok nope scratch that

if this is steven caulker signing on loan for lokomotiv moskow we have a thumping new winner

Aston Villa have agreed a fee in the region of £15m for Brentford striker Scott Hogan.

r|t|c, Tuesday, 31 January 2017 12:54 (seven years ago) link

is this like some lol Cold War thing where they have to be seen to be beating our spending?

Onanisi Paizuri (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 31 January 2017 13:17 (seven years ago) link

tbf selling ashley westwood up a division for 5m must surely be the irl equivalent of joker gas
