He's got that new telephoto lens and macintosh he was after then? Apple Mac or or long coat. Both are for perverts. Got to have some way of editing all those long range scrote shots he's taken, the dirty get.

Oh is it the longest day already? Great, now I can put aside the crippling lack of sleep and begin the slow slide in to seasonally affected depression.
Which for me is basically just depressions with a side order of depression.
Hi!
I'm trying to shoot someone's bollocks off from over 100m away. In a game. In real life I'm getting repeatedly kicked in the bollocks.
We've got some time off in September, so I need to start looking for a book that outlines some historical event about man's inhumanity to man.

Shit, did I miss war chat? History is a complicated mess and needs a good thick book to explain it, who knew? I'd avoid anything by Stephen Ambrose. Other than Band of Brothers his books are poorly researched and bits of them are plagiarised. What's stopping them explaining it in 250 pages? Perhaps the Beevster is getting paid by the word. Same reason criminal psychologists couldn't explain your case in 250 pages, there's a lot of background and context to explain before you get into the meat of what's really gone wrong.

Thanks for the recommendations. I generally steer clear of the war hermitry shelves, which is getting harder to do as about half the publishing industry seems to be WW2 books nowadays. They don't seem to be allowed to be less than 750 pages either, especially those Beevor books. Shit, did I miss war chat? History is a complicated mess and needs a good thick book to explain it, who knew? I'd avoid anything by Stephen Ambrose.

Work chat: I now have to run to stay in one place. I dont have the metaphorical knees* for this.
Games chat: the later levels of Sniper Elite are better actually. I retract approximately 38% of my previous statement.
OTTM: not applicable
*that is to say I have actual knees too, but they are also fucked.

To be fair, it is rather tough on the early levels, unless you find the work benches to upgrade the rifle. I dont think it's tough, just dull. I want to methodically spot and snipe Nazis from miles away, not creep about like a Tory visiting his mistress.

I'm not dead thank you, its just that the best member of my team fucked off, the most experienced one is in hospital having an organ removed, my boss was made redundant, and now I'm ruled from the American side of the business and they couldn't tell their big fat arse from their flabby elbows, so my life is so fucked right now that I'd probably be better off dead.
Hi.
Games: Sniper Elite 5. Pile of shit. Might as well call it "no don't SNIPE anyone! What are you thinking?! Sneak around like its Assassin's Creed: WW2. We never expected you to snipe anyone, it's so loud half the map can hear it, come on now" And so on.
OTTM: Dignitas me now.

Cthulhu statue printed and painted for workmate who is leaving tomorrow. Unlike the rest, I didnt drive him out, he was poached by one of the big boys. I hope this curses him enough, the clever little shit.

TVblog: I’ve been watching Book of Boba. Last night’s episode featured the most uninspiring car-chase I’ve ever had the misfortune to witness. I expect better from Robert Rodriguez. You'd think it couldn't get worse after that wouldn't you? Well, dont hold your breath.

scubar, Fife is the sunniest part of Scotland, and above average for the UK as a whole. You daft racist. Are we 100% sure it's the sun and not some posh St Andrews yah that the locals have set on fire?

So, Boris Johnson then… what an utter arsehole. Not that this is new information, but having watched the live streams from Parliament and his press conference, firmly solidifies it. Lying piece of… but corbyn, etc and so forth Imagine having a PM that seemed to care about people, the absolute fucking horror. I didn't agree with everything Jezza said or did, but I did agree with most of it.

Morning all, Do we have any Xcom 2 experts here? Shoot at aliens point blank with a 95% chance to hit and still miss, standard tactics. Xcom 2 is ok, didn't enjoy it as much as the first one. And neither are as good as UFO: Enemy Unknown because as we all know that is the finest game ever produced.

I think its more likely to be the septics murdering people out of hand for being "different"*. They do love a good old fashioned prejudiced based murder. *ie not white, not straight, not Christian, and not fucking their sister

A few years back, someone at my work had a secret drinking problem, and empty bottles of vodka were often found secreted about the building.
This has stopped post lockdown era, so I assume they've drank themselves to death at home.
The dream.

I've got a headache and a sore throat, which I assume is a new strain of Omicron, or Monkeypox. It's been nice knowing you (not you obviously). It’s monkeycron, a horrible combination of the two. Best wishes. He was my favourite transformer growing up.

Apparently it's OK now to break the law if you're under "extraordinary pressure". That certainly describes my current work situation, so to that end I've decided to burn the place down, and when the rozzers turn up I'll just say I'm a Tory candidate. Actually, I dont want anyone to think I'm a nonce, so better not. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/tory-jonty-campbell-tweet-probe-b2085042.htmlEvery day they drag this country further down the shitter. Hi! Games: Stellaris OTTM: I've been mass printing Anubis warriors for a mate. He wants 80 total and I've done about 50 so far. Printer was running pretty much the whole weekend. Also printing out a large cthulu statue thing for the guy whose leaving my team at the end of the week, as he's a big Lovecraft fan, except for the racism, obviously.

That kind of set piece might work against Motherwell but it's not going to cut it with the big boys. I've absolutely no idea what I'm talking about. Forfar 4-East Fife 5

Evenin' all Just sitting down to watch the footer final. Glasgow must be dead tonight as everyone appears to be in Seville. There must be 500,000G Rangers supporters, minimum. Think Frankfurt might be too good for them but I'll be rooting for Rangers. Completely ignoring the 50% of weegies who would rather go and fight IS with nothing more than a t shirt with an offensive depiction of the prophet mohammed on it than see Rangers win anything.

Ah, Saudi Arabia. I've told you before that in the 80s my PM had spent 4 years working as a Saudi government employee. To say that he was relieved to get out of that country after he had survived an assassination attempt is putting it mildly. He lived in Riyadh, and because the fastest way home from work was via the main square he always checked the newspapers whether there would be any public executions, lashings, or amputations so that he could avoid the area that day. It would just be too crowded with spectators and so it was better to take a detour to get home in time. There was great excitement at his workplace when one of his colleagues was convicted of fraud (if I remember correctly he'd been forging documents) and was sentenced to have his hand cut off. Now, you may intensely dislike some of your colleagues at work for sending you stupid emails or chairing pointless meetings. Do you want to know what some of this man's colleagues did when they heard he was getting his hand cut off? They bought new camcorders so that could get it all on video. Luckily it all had a happy ending. The PM's boss managed to pull some strings and get the bloke out of the country and into the US, where he set himself up as a fundamentalist Islamic preacher in Tennessee. Before anyone says it, no I did not behead our pony-tailed science rat, as much as it was tempting to do so. Nor did I feed him into the machine that slices samples really, really thinly and dissolve his remains in the various digest solvents we have by the gallon around the place and pour the resultant human soup underneath the recently built A14 extension before they put in the concrete. That absolutely did not occur.
