I watched the first episode series 4 of Rick and Morty, there were 6 adverts at the beginning and 8 during the half way break. Absolutely fucking ruined it for me.
Episode 3 of Final Space was shit too.

Hello! BDT was interrupted by an overwhelming desire for a nice hot cup of tea and so I feel reasonably proto-human today. I still want to hear Dani Filth singing PSBs hits, though.
Still haven’t clobbered the old cleric fella yet. Time to shamelessly training montage it.

Thanks to moral encouragement from Cobblers I had a look at Bloodborne.
I managed to summon a high level person who helped me defeat the vicar. I was so encouraged by this I smashed up the witch of Hemwick as well. Then went to the Forbidden woods. I opened up the boss.
I did however notice they were ripping me a new one quite regularly. Every 2 minutes. Which is the length of time it takes to get there. I found out how to check my NG level. have 5 cages from Micolash so I am in NG+++++* This may explain why the damage level is pretty high. I could defeat the Shadows. All I need is to defeat one of them and not then mess up. I achieved the first part. The second should be easy.
* at least. I don't think I sold his cage at all but I might have. You never know.

Civ Rev Chat: I had a domination win the other day by 250 ad. The French started it by hemming me in. They paid for that dearly. Then I duffed up all the other nations for good measure. This was on the second hardest skill level. I am a beast. I think domination victories may be one of the easier to go for - just rock up to the capitals' coastline in a battleship fleet, land five tank armies, and BOOM. You're done. In 250 ad? It were all knights back then, the good old days. [EDIT] I tend to wipe out their satellite towns first and then bomb the bastards. Just to, y'know, let them know who's boss. Also, completely destroying a civilization gives me a great deal of satisfaction.

Interview blog - Came away feeling I'd done really well, got all the way home and then realised when I was asked "what brought you here" it was a reworded "why do you want to work for us... I face-palmed so hard my hand is stuck there permanently. So, an improvement there at least. Games blog - No games but bought a Switch with Mario Kart and Pokemon Sword yesterday to cushion the blow of the interview. I'm sure it will when it arrives next week. Please tell my your answer was “the bus”

Ah, the good old pig circuit, I remember it well. I think my approach was almost bang on 2m10s, so you’ve clearly found an efficiency I’ve missed.
Possibly steaming straight into the Shadows area, rather than pausing for a fortifying drink just outside?

Please tell my your answer was “the bus” For the avoidance of doubt, I answered at length about my own personal motivations and only briefly touched on why I wanted to work for that company specifically. "The bus" would probably have been a good bit of shite interview banter though. Hindsight.

To be fair that answer sounds about right, if they wanted a specific answer geared toward their company they should have worded the question appropriately. I take it you at least managed to shoehorn in some company stats (number of staff, some names of the Board, relative position to competitors, rank in that industry...) in your answer?

One of my Eevees has eevolved into an Espeon. His name is Eevo Morales. It was my superior curry cuisine that did it for him.
One down, seven more eeveelutions to go.
I also received and hatched my first eggs.
I battled the Eldegoss on the bridge and captured it out of principle although I already had an Eldegoss of that level. It was wasting my Pokeballs before my Eevee (in its preeeveelution phase) finally tail whipped it into submission.
Now I have two.
That is all.

hullo...
Is there a phrase for when you're in a queue at a high street coffee outlet and you can see a plum cosy armchair to sit in, then someone comes in and places a bag and coat on it?
A bad business. No coffee no chair. That should be the rule.

Move it when you get your coffee as they'll be in the coffee queue.
When they object, tell them to Fuck off that you could have done the same but didn't as you're not an arsehole.
Or sit elsewhere and scowl.

I missed the chair, then I went to another uncomfortable high chair at a table, but a man came over from the queue and said I couldn't sit there because he was waiting for two friends. Driven from pillar to post. I can see him now. This was ten minutes ago. He's hogging the table with not a friend in sight.

It's a nice table and I do not want to share it.

In my local m and s cafe they have a big sign up telling you not to bagsy a seat before you have bought your coffee. That's the way to go. A much needed shot in the arm for the sign making industry to boot.

I would take the sofa miss on the chin, but I need to know about the high chair position and if it was situated on a cosy table with that guy on it or was it a row situation instead? If it was the latter I would probably have told him to jog on.

If it was the latter I would probably have told him to jog on. It was a high table with a kind of padded bench situation against the wall and two high seats opposite. The man had put his bag on the bench then came to chase me away as I went for one of chairs.

They might be happy to share a seat with you.

Hello! BDT was interrupted by an overwhelming desire for a nice hot cup of tea and so I feel reasonably proto-human today. I still want to hear Dani Filth singing PSBs hits, though. Still haven’t clobbered the old cleric fella yet. Time to shamelessly training montage it. Gascoigne? Tough first boss fight (if you don't count Cleric Beast as it's optional). Learn to parry. Saving that, spoiler alert, use the music box just after he transforms into phase two. Make sure you're a few metres away as it's a delayed effect(sp?).

Coffee shops are dens of eniquity where all social norms vanish.
It's everyone for themselves.

I’d forgotten cleric was optional. I’m emotionally invested in this now, though. Gazza I don’t usually find too hard. Clobber him until he loses his shit then give it full beans with everything you’ve got. Normally I manage to kill him just as he transforms. Parrying is for casuals and those of a sober disposition.
