Is it time/

Long story short: There's a wedding in the country at the weekend, 'er indoors was going there alone tomorrow and I was catching up later, but if her grandmother goes today/tomorrow she's going to need the company.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 01:59 (eighteen years ago) link

Well, I think Liz's family are realizing that she's probably not coming back.

Yeah, but people calling it before it's confirmed seems a bit un-delicate to me.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:15 (eighteen years ago) link

Well, what is this, high tea at the Windsor?

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:16 (eighteen years ago) link

Providing it's not evacuated due to a bomb threat, yes.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:18 (eighteen years ago) link

I mean, I wouldn't call it calling it, I mean, gah... It's a realisation... Gah. Whatever.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:18 (eighteen years ago) link

I know what you mean, but... yeah. If 'er indoors was missing for a week I'm not sure I'd take well to people saying "sorry for your loss" before anything was confirmed, that's all.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:20 (eighteen years ago) link

I guess I was digusted by all of the bombing threads.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:38 (eighteen years ago) link

Seemed to bring out the worst in some ilxors.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Well I know Jon is being a suprisingly turdy twit at the moment, taking the piss out of people on the bad neighbours thread. Way to be thoughtful Jon - kick em while theyre down.

Wouldnt surprise me if he actually had no frickin idea what was even going on.

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:47 (eighteen years ago) link

I just think that if even her family have begun to accept that it is highly likely she's not coming back, it is a little...can't think of the word....for us to keep pretending it isn't so.

― Product of Australia / Kate (papa november), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:51 (eighteen years ago) link

That was poorly structured. Sorry.

― Product of Australia / Kate (papa november), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:52 (eighteen years ago) link

You know how I feel about the dickwaving going on the analysis thread.

'HEY, WE DESERVED IT SOOOO BAD, HELL, I ASKED THEM TO DO IT!'

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:52 (eighteen years ago) link

also, masonic kate is verrrry easy to rumble. jon might be a tool, but kate almost seems to stick around for it.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:57 (eighteen years ago) link

Wow, people turn into the biggest arseholes when bad stuff happens.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 02:59 (eighteen years ago) link

Do you mean me?

― Product of Australia / Kate (papa november), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:01 (eighteen years ago) link

mikey very very otm there. xpost

― shine headlights on me (electricsound), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:01 (eighteen years ago) link

like, the bombing didn't make them precious, they were precious to begin with. right now, it's very amplified.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:02 (eighteen years ago) link

NOOOO, Kate, that Masonic bird.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:02 (eighteen years ago) link

No, my question was directed at Adam. Re: People turning into the biggest arseholes.

― Product of Australia / Kate (papa november), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:03 (eighteen years ago) link

No no Kate, I meant Jon specifically, but generally anyone who's insensitive enough to be a bastard to people who've gone through hell in the past week.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:05 (eighteen years ago) link

I just think that if even her family have begun to accept that it is highly likely she's not coming back, it is a little...can't think of the word....for us to keep pretending it isn't so.

Disingenuous? I see your point, but... I dunno. I believe similar sentiments can be expressed without referring to Liz in the past tense.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:07 (eighteen years ago) link

Well I dunno. I've tried not to be rude. That's why I've discussed my thoughts on the matter on this thread and not on any of the others. Caus e I like to think I can speak reasonably openly with you guys and you can tell me if i'm talking crap, so I don't have to take it elsewhere on the boards and make other people mad or upset.

― Product of Australia / Kate (papa november), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:08 (eighteen years ago) link

Very good move IMO.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:09 (eighteen years ago) link

was it cherryy?
-- shine headlights on me

Yesyy, but it was not cheery.

― moley (moley), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:18 (eighteen years ago) link

Jon and Kate have been fighting forever. I don't think she needs to be protected at the moment, she can be very antagonistic herself.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:22 (eighteen years ago) link

Haha, now we cross the line from hysterical self-important bunfight to surreal idiocyfest. If Jon doesn't crack out the random images, I will.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:29 (eighteen years ago) link

Hmmmm...someones about to blow a fuse on the neighbours thread. But who will it be?

― Product of Australia / Kate (papa november), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:29 (eighteen years ago) link

This is what got me:

I don't think I should be forced to take someone's "fragile state of mind" into account when they act like a total asshole to me over a gentle jab.

I don't give a shit what your beef is, if you feel being considerate is the result of "being forced" you've got some learning to do.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:30 (eighteen years ago) link

Adam, he's been provoked over a lonnng time, lotta resentment there.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:40 (eighteen years ago) link

Okay, if any of you bite after jon's last comment, you're an idiot.

― Product of Australia / Kate (papa november), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:40 (eighteen years ago) link

eep, there we go.

― Product of Australia / Kate (papa november), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:41 (eighteen years ago) link

i think it wouldn't do any harm for most of ilx to step away from the computer for a little while

― gem (trisk), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:42 (eighteen years ago) link

Adam, he's been provoked over a lonnng time, lotta resentment there.

True, but really, of all weeks to back off slightly this would be a good one.

Kate I'm not biting, just playing along.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:44 (eighteen years ago) link

Last time Kate and Jon had a fight, it broke ILX.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:44 (eighteen years ago) link

Some of those Londoners are neurally plugged into the board, I suspect.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:46 (eighteen years ago) link

Ah yes I remember that fight. I didn't see it, just the run-on effects.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 03:47 (eighteen years ago) link

Hang on, did any of you think I was either defending or attacking UK Kate? I was doing neither, simply putting her mood into context.

Jim: youve had a go at me 3 times today, is there something I did?

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 04:33 (eighteen years ago) link

(Or am I misreading silliness/sarcasm. I can't tell on ILX, usually... damn I hate text mediums sometimes...)

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 04:42 (eighteen years ago) link

Trayce, it's all silliness, go get some sleep!

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 04:45 (eighteen years ago) link

Dude I just started work ffs ;P I'll be awake til at least 2am probably.

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 05:10 (eighteen years ago) link

Bah!

GOD I HAD TO JUST GO GET SOME CLEANING SOLUTION AND CONTACT LENSE SOLUTION I HAD TO GO OUTSIDE, THAT MAKES ME SO MAD.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 05:37 (eighteen years ago) link

does anyone else think this is an inappropriate (though amusing) article title?

Sorry all, carry on.

Got my first toothache, EVER.

If, on the 17th of September 2001, I came down like a tonne of bricks on some American living in or near New York City or Washington DC, I doubt I wouldn't kicked off the entire forum.

Phew, I can see why some people become CEOs and COOs - they are total hardasses with no emotional investment in what they do whatsoever.

This is a good thing businesswise I presume, but yeesh its scary to deal with unless you are totally confident about what you're saying to them!

(I just had an eye opening convo with our COO about stuff at work and the story he told me is so different and clearer than the shit my manager and supervisors have been babbling lately, it was amazing. I now feel like I get wtf is going on here, heh. Ima knock some heads and make my mark in this place, dammit)

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 09:09 (eighteen years ago) link

OK hahah I got into trouble for the above conversation cos I dissed my direct boss to the COO whoops. Damn, fskcing work politics.

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 13:53 (eighteen years ago) link

...I said to myself.

God I hate night shifts. WAKE UP FUKKERS. Yeah you wont, oh well.

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 16:37 (eighteen years ago) link

Sorry Trayce. I think my days of late nights are over.

Morning Mongrels! It's Thursday and I got paid.

― Product of Australia / Kate (papa november), Wednesday, 13 July 2005 20:23 (eighteen years ago) link

Sorry Trayce! I'm also an early bird these days, by necessity not choice. And so, good morning all.

― moley, Wednesday, 13 July 2005 20:52 (eighteen years ago) link

Morning Moley!
