“And some things that should have been forgotten were lost. History became legend. Legend became myth. And for two and a half thousand years, the series passed out of all knowledge." Until some berk made us remember ... As for Heinlein's free love period, dear lord, why? Awful crap...

Hi! It's all gone wrong at work.
How are we all? What's the action?
Gamesblog - none at all. TVblog - three episodes of latter-series Futurama. Amigablog - there may be a new ep up this weekend... entirely dependent on how quickly I can get home later before heading out for... OTTM - Hobbs & Shaw! Yes, it'll be terrible, by I'm expecting good/bad rather than bad/bad.

Good morning prudy01, good morning everyone else. The Box had 174 guests in the past 24 hours. I assume this is mostly refugees from 8chan. I fully expect most 8chan users will end up here, where they can make semi-anonymous cheese puns with limited fear of reprisals. In retrospect, I'm a little disappointed the G didn't run a series of articles after the Chatterbox closed, speculating where we might migrate to once they closed Seabin for comments.

Hello, it’s going to be one of those days.
I’ve eaten my lunch for breakfast and am just about to have my second breakfast. There may potentially be a third if someone does a bacon run.

Morning, Games. Me. No. The daughter has almost paid off her mortgage in animal crossing and is looking to build a second floor.
TV. Finished Gomorrah. Top stuff.
Fillums. Watched just over half of roquefortman. Really enjoyable. The guy playing EJ is great. The mannerisms are spot on.
Last Fri with the child of the school holidays. Chucking it down. We were going to look at new scooters but it's too wet to go anywhere. The dolls are out. I have coffee but looking for booze to put in it.

Games - Witcher 3. Actually took down some monsters. And played Gwent.
I also watched the first half an hour of Endgame. It’s a shitty Chinese camera copy, but I’m getting the gist of it.

There are Blu-ray rips out. I may or may not have watched one.

Hello. Yesterday I made 750 packed lunches as part of a scheme* to avoid kids going hungry in the school holidays, largely due to the ineptitude and deliberate inaction of the arseholes currently in government. You will all doubtless be utterly unimpressed by this because you are a bunch of bitter, cynical bastards, so I am not going to boast about it. What I AM going to boast about is that approximately 300 of said lunches were cheese sandwiches.
300 cheese sandwiches, imagine that. A vision of glory. Serried ranks as far as the eye can see, glinting in the light of the August sun lancing through the windows of a slightly dilapidated school hall. Magnificent.
No games.
*this is not a prison day release thing, I should stress. I remain at large.

It’s a shitty Chinese camera copy, but I’m getting the gist of it. Nobody gonna do a 'your face' gag? Don't blame you, it would be childish and immature. No games, no TV, no murders. OTTM: Cat got a slap earlier, the feral shit.

Sweet, we're going for the tasting menu at a place with two Michelin stars. I'm going to go the full hog and see if I can drink £200 of wine all to myself at lunch. Can't be arsed to get a taxi, so we've hired a car and driver for the day, it's just more convenient.
Almost had to cancel, we can only go because we've managed to foist the kids off onto some charity for losers, they get free cheese sarnies and we get a day without them. Sweet.

It would be more plausible if you claimed you had sent the children to eat a tasting menu at a Michelin starred restaurant while you ate 300 cheese sandwiches and however many egg sandwiches Cobblers has made.

I reckon Shenguin wouldn't manage above 50 cheese sandwiches at one sitting.
Fewer if he ate all the egg mayonnaise sandwiches first.

I'd pay* a small amount to see him in a cheese sandwich and Fortnite showdown with Baby.
My money is on Shenguin to eat himself into a cheese induced coma.
*Not for the sandwiches. Cobblers is supplying those

I just had a fried egg sandwich for breakfast. It was good.

The ice cream is very tasty, though you put on weight just looking at it.

We had a creme egg eating competition at work once, we all thought it would be easy to eat 15 or so and then we would struggle. Well no, it get's really hard after just 5 and people were puking their guts up after 10.
