Suffice to say Triggerfest, aka Trig Brother was Freaking Amazing, oh yes. I was evicted fairly early on for the unforgivable sin of spilling Jane's drink (boo hoo). But I paid for my sins, as noted above. There was much drink, much drunkeness, much wandering around in London and more besides. Among the questions asked -- 'who would look worse with no hair, Mariah Carey or Michael Bolton,' 'describe your ultimate pub,' and 'show us your blowjob face.' Anthony Easton would have been proud of the gay American trucker question, oh yes. He was Kept in Mind. I have pictures. I fear to have them developed. Much thanks to Tom for organzing, and to Pete, Sarah, Emma, Tim, Carsmile Steve, Martin, Magnus, Richard and everyone else I'm forgetting for one heck of a weird and fun day.
Sleep calls. ZZZZZZZZZZZ.

The sign of a good weekend is when everyone involved did at least one shameful deed.

what a crappy robot. and calling the engine of a space ship it's 'vital organs' is not going to make us believe this robot is anything like a cyborg or anything cool.

The question, of course, was "Who wants to see pictures of dinosaurs having sex with robots?" Which was what the thread title was going to be until I decided to post it here.
