It seems to get dark way earlier than it used to, somehow. Its depressing leaving work at 5 and its already dark!

the creeping darkness of the soul

the effect being exacerbated today somewhat by the terrible, terrible weather. guess who forgot his umbrella!

o shi

If any of youze are watching The Chaser tonight, you may see me in the audience wearing a facemask!!

sigh

LOL i love how the Age have started to turn into the Hun with lines like "He said he would try to have the taxpayer-funded show cancelled."

They'd never worded it like that once of a time, jesus.

I personally think the skit idea is pretty LOL but I can see why it'd offend ppl.

I mean if it was real sick kids in the skit, that would be fucking sick. But they were actors.... ahh whatever. Chaser's always been about pushing shit as far as they can.

You might as well shut this country down now if it can't "get" black humour.

For fuck's sake, a whole bunch of children are still growing up in poverty in this country and it would only get 0.0000001% of the reaction that this *comedy sketch* is receiving.

so how are we all spending the long weekend is long

I've already started! Got today and Tuesday off, wahey!

Will be @ Pause at about 5 this arvy if anyone wants to come with. Just having a bev.

Jesus you guys are still here.

i'm not really sure where else we would go

Should work.

Really up for a bit of a drink though...

no drinking for me tonite but i reckon by sunday i'll be all about the idea of long weekend drinx

^^ OMG drNNNNNNkk party lawyers can't say talk

so did long weekend drinx happen or wha

nobody told me if so!

^^ OMG drNNNNNNkk party lawyers can't say talk

This guy knows what's up.

must say i was somewhat curious about that

guys it's so cold why is it so cooooold??

chill dudes

major roof leakage overnight ;_;

ruh roh

fortunately just in the usual areas. but stressful nonetheless!

'the usual areas', hope we're not talking about the swimsuit area if you knoworrimean

loool

GIS 'wet patch' (un)surprisingly NSFW.

ill save that til i get home

My back door leaks sometimes...

(haw hur!) no really it does, if the rain rains *against* it all the water comes in and soaks the carpet wtf, stupid lack of backyard overhang.

In other news, it is nice to know Mikey can still visit us, to boost his own flagging esteem by feeling superior not being here, or something.

roffle

i had leaky back door in my old house, particularly irritating as i did have a proper backyard overhang..

Srsly, I'm tempted to go to a builders supplies or bunnings and buy some kind of elaborate plastic awning thingy to keep the rain off, cos being consigned to the front porch for a durrie is stupid.

^^ good look if you have a shottie to aim at the local youths, tho

Hahaha yeah. Last night I almost put a blanket over my knees while on the porch on my old couch, for reals.

I should get one of them rockin chair dealies

And a new username, to celebrate new futurama.

the fuck is this shit

Germaine Greer snubbed him at the Sydney Writers' Festival ("She just stood there not speaking to me," Lander says)

lolol, hardsonned

fitzroy north is white btw

so tempting to revive the epic SWPL clusterfuc thread

Can we organise some Indian students to bash him?

i'm eager to hear what kevin rudd thinks about this.

LOL Nth Fitroy sux to be you etc

Yay, typing gude today.

loool

i must say it was quite nice being fit, last time i was a biker slut

i am seriously waking up in the mornings better. also appear to have shed a couple kilos.

just got the bike serviced today. brakes be firm!

what on for the weekend dudes. i'm off to see (possibly terrible) dj battle tomoz afternoon, open slate otherwise.

there was talk of seeing new estate @ 303 on sat nite, but i'm le flexible

which reminds me of this amusing but thorougly sexist current affairs segment on le specs

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzMdOwZbc9o

As I mentioned prev, we're goin 2 see Black Cab, Sand Pebbs &c at the Espy if anyone's interested, its BC's new album launch. Top album too, really dark new wavey, bit JD, bit Chams, bit moody.

O thats tomorrow nite tho - tonight is "trayce makes home made pizzas and scoffs them and drinks" night.

i remember that ad!

they don't make ACA segments like that any more, more's the pity

sounds orrite trayce. i never did hear that last black cab record, let alone the new one. first one set a mood quite nicely though.

i can appreciate them but i've never fallen in love with them tbh. mr lee is a legend and an excellent guitarist though

must go see the pebbs again one of these days, i miss em

u miss them ripping off yr remix creditz

har

^^this.

hav a good weekend mongs!

I am going to a NRL game tomorrow night while secretly wishing I was at Carlton vs Adelaide!! It's all good, through, we will drink plenty and crack Russell Crowe jokes.

Well, not secretly wishing but vocally complaining. It's the biggest game of the year in my family with me and my mum (Blues) vs me stepdad (Crows). Winner will have BRAGGIN' rights FOREVER.

Marcia Hines doesn't want whitey to steal the black man's music, I hear. Personally I think she'd be better off letting it rip at say, The Hilltop Hoods, then a kid doing a RSL-standard cover of a Temptations classic which Barnsey probably did during his "Soul Deep" la belle epoque.

when i was 12 or whatever i thought 'soul deep' was so fucken awesome!!

My mum had a cassette copy in the car when I was 5 or whenever it was!!

well now - how is you all? bin a while.

'ello gaz

hi gaz!

morning mongs. how was weekendz? after all that stuff upthread i realised i was broek and just stayed home instead and programmed midi bass to SP songs

Sand Pebbs and Black Cab were awesomesauce. Did not enjoy Espy security staff being cunce, had forgot theyre like that (they stole my drink because I dared wander out on the porch with it ffs). Ron Peno even got up and sang a song with em.

I'm bloody sore and exhausted now.

Also, hi gaz!!!

i was broek too so didn't do much other than a couple of errands on friday, attend a terrible 'dudes who've done a learn how to dj course playing their graduation sets' event with a friend who's just signed up for said course, and fall off the bike yesterday.

hi gaz if ur still reading!

I discovered I was broke AFTER the weekend, when Rob goes "oh is rent due tomorrow, oops I dont have enough to cover my half"

&*%^%$

you need to foot that one up the arse

Oh well, looks like someone is selling a kidney!!

eh, its only cause we had a weird middle-month semi rent due and my payday falls just *after* the rents due (so does R's) but yeah, bit annoyed... all good though, it'll settle. We can cover it, just a day or 2 late is all.

oh don't mind me. i just get paranoid baot that stuff - definitely don't want to give any reasons for the landlord to put any heat on!!

Ya I hear you, I'm the same, esp because I'm sick of being moved on every 12 months rarrrrghhh.

i'll be moving again at the start of next year. not really looking forward to it, and i'll miss certain aspects of the house, but it's not really a very nice place to live

it is really very surreal trying to explain (and teach) rhyming slang to a non-native english speaker..

including thrusting motions usually helps.

Well it might if shes hot.

a forceful fanning should hit the spot

loool

http://www.adultsheepfinder.com/

not nsfw but might raise eyebrows

should have .co.nz domain

guys i am sorer today than i was yesterday. can i trade in this stupid bag of flesh and bones for a new one??

what's the damage report from the fall?

you should go for a massage

amirite

man, haven't had dece massage in aaaages

generally sore in the ribs on the right side. right palm and 'little finger' side of hand too - thinking this copped most of the impact. there's a light sorta bruise there but it wouldn't be obvious if you weren't looking. have given things a push but there's no sharp pain that'd suggest a break anywhere.

I fell flat on my face/hands/knees once (tripped over drunk in the dark on a footpath, lol) and that made me sore in all my ligaments like elbows and shoulders for at least a week afterwards, just from the heavy jarring.

So whatre we doing fr new thread title?

"Mong Racing Carinval 2009" ?
"Flamin mongrels, its spring"

I have no idea.

'sassiest mongrel thread on ILX'

go w/ yr instincts trayce

Ugh that always ends badly!

ugh that always ends badly! mongrels, spring '09

mongstincts

Hahaah awesome =)
