An artist's impression of the cabinet discussing the proposed Withdrawal Agreement?

No, it's still Tuesday here in the UK, whether our politicians keep us in the Franco-German alliance or crap up our economy by unmooring dear old Blighty and steaming us full speed into the mid-Atlantic ...
Doh, but of course it's really the fault of all those stupid bastards who were too idle or intellectually challenged to take the time to learn the basics of how our industries and services functioned and assess the dysfunctional impact on our already fragile economy leaving the EU would have. Instead, in spite of all experience to the contrary, they believed what politicians were saying. They're still doing so, they're blaming the politicians because they're too morality bankrupt to blame themselves. To paraphrase ...
We are getting the Brexit we deserve

Installed this yesterday, took 20 minutes and then spent the rest of the day fretting about whether the PSU was powerful enough

8GB. What was your test game? The first pc I built had 512MB of system ram. And the graphics card I think had 32MB. Don't forget the sweet, sweet sound blaster.

Aaaaarrgghhhhhh. See arseholes who go for buses and have their bus pass deep in bags and have to find them while chatting to the driver.
First against the wall. Honestly. You know you're going for a bus. It's not a fucking surprise.
I'm now going to miss train 1. So I won't get a coffee as I'll miss train 2 and be late for a meeting.
Really taking the shine off of new phone day. Thanks missus.
***Aaand relax***

And after all that I made the train and Louise in the coffee shop knows my order so got a coffee as well. Sorry you had to witness that tantrum.
Games. RDR2. Back up in the snow after a Mexican gang and had my first one on one gunfight. Died. Killed him 2nd go. Not managed any legendary kills yet and need to press on with the story. As folk were saying yesterday you end up mooching about taking ages to do anything.
Been eying up switch games as well.

You know you're going for a bus. It's not a fucking surprise. #2: People at the head of a massive till queue in a supermarket who faff about looking for their purse, which seems to be an excuse to chat to the staff member serving them. The old dear yesterday even said 'It's nice to have a chat at the till'. #3: People in front of you leaving/entering a shop who stop in the middle of the doors for a chat. Murderchat Wednesday.

I realise some folks are lonely and their only daily interaction is with shopkeepers, busdrivers, library staff etc and I sympathise . But. rush. hour.ffs.
They should go to ggb-chatterbox.boards.net and chat to the kind, friendly folk there. Oh.

OTTM (to me) : I finally got past the firefight in Deadspace3 classic mode that has been the bane of my existence for some time. I used all of my wiles* and cunning and booze to achieve this.
* Not Sir Andrew John Wiles, I don't think proving Fermat's Last Theorem would be an effective defence against necromorphs.

Sweepstake on when Crank will snap and start bludgeoning lonely people in public places with his new handset?
Last night:
Japanese class. Missed last week's class and now I'm lost. Apparently, sentences end in a different way if you're explaining something or asking for an explanation. This then changes the form of the verb. Why? No idea.
Got home, worked on the uni hand in that's due Thursday and had a couple of bottles from the beer52 box. No games.

Well it sounds similar to the photograph mission I was doing. Did you rummage through his drawers after you'd shot him? Would recommend. The next chap on the list is described as a "pervert, killer and hog fancier" - which one of you is this? I also, for the second time, came across the stripey jail clothes guy. Last time he ran off (I think I scared him off). One of you lot said he's worth sticking with. So I did. Useful info!

Sounds like you know you comfortable with a 550W, but maybe your next upgrade down the line is to a 650w gold psu to avoid any chance of breaking that expensive card.

I now see Crank as Michael Douglas in Falling Down. He’s going to end the day wandering the mean streets of Scotland with a gun in one hand, a bottle of Buckie in the other...

Bus pass/train pass is basic stuff. Even better when you've got a queue of hundreds behind you on the underground, and the person at the gate is fumbling around for it. This is quality chat.
Hello all. I had a massive headache yesterday evening, so really didn't get up to much.
Got to pick a couple of photos for next week's print competition - "man-made". Currently leaning towards an interior shot of "the big shed" at Chatham historic dockyard, and maybe something from RIAT.

Morning.
Overwatch. New person released. Everyone wants to use it. Pain in the arse as the person who gets to use it is usually fucking shite and, as it's op as fuck at the minute, it's usually the difference between victory and defeat. I avoid it like the plague as I know I'm shite already.
TV. Caught up with the Gifted and TWD. Both equally ok and annoying.
@felice, nice GPU! I'm looking at either a 1080ti or 2080 for my January build, but also toying with repurchasing a 2080ti for future proofing. As the wife just got told half her team is being made redundant next year this may sway my choice.
Edit: Re. annoying people. The one's who get off a train/ bus, take two steps then stop really get me. Mainly because when you inevitably bump into them they tut loudly as if it was your fucking fault. Arseholes.

Hello Last night I killed a bison because an npc told me to. Same npc then got angry at some other people because they had killed a bison. I'm now in another town. Can't remember what it's called.
Games chat
