Sam's Thread of Chattin' w/ Jake & Other Robust Subjects

[Y 2 Jake]

What have I don't now?

Seriously, that's not even a typo, that's just me being stupid.

Spend £800 on postage for shoes to Malaysia this week, Sam. Little fact for you there.

 

[The Hiphopapotamus]

The one with Sean Locke, I bet.

That show is nothing without Alan Davies. He's hilarious.

To Malaysia? Oh my.

I never owned The Matrix on DVD. Even I was surprised to learn that. I've got it on Blu-ray now. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't impressed by the picture, but that's because I've got it set up correctly - unlike 99& of electronics stores.

I loved the Matrix. Should I watch the sequels. I heard that they're shit.

 

[X]

Avoid the sequels. They're mostly shit with a few nice bits thrown in here and there. They ruin the franchise though. Hard to live up to the original I guess.

 

[Uncle Sam]

The sequels will only ruin the original. They're not worth watching. I'm a bit annoyed that they replaced the blue filter from the film with a green filter so that it fits in with the sequels.

 

[Uncle Sam]

And Killzone 2 would be great if it had a control system that, y'know, worked. Holding down one button for crouch and another for zoom simultaneously is a pain. I'm trying to figure out if I can configure it otherwise.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

To Malaysia? Oh my.

Another £300 this morning to Oh Se Won in South Korea. Hello Oh Se Won.

Pretty wothless now though, isn't it!

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Have you decided to get a job or something?

 

[Murfish]

I love you.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Why? I mean right now, not just in general.

 

[X]

It's because of your complexion. Your skin tone is marvelous.

 

[Murfish]

I'm all about what's on the inside, Jakey. You're liver is marvelous.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Have you decided to get a job or something?

No, I've merely re-discovered television. And Forrest Griffin's continual silly haircuts have me hooked to The Ultimate Fighter 1.

I kind of expected that. I've heard they were just a huge letdown. I began to wonder how they could make a sequel.

He was invincible. How they could follow on.

 

[Uncle Sam]

MILLIONS OF AGENT SMITHS and some bad computer effects.

MILLIONS OF AGENT SMITHS and some bad computer effects.

Sounds intriguing. I just might not watch it.

 

[Uncle Sam]

You shouldn't.

I've gotta say, I'm enjoying Killzone 2. For no other reason than the Helghast have cockney accents and the idiolect of present day New Yorkers. "I shit you not - ee's been tellin' porkies 'ee 'as! So, how 'bout them Knicks, guvna?"

 

[The Hiphopapotamus]

I'm watching Soccer A.M. Charlton were on. Makes you sad, eh Sam. League 1 and all.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Tell that to Tranmere.

 

[The Hiphopapotamus]

Tell that to Tranmere.

Tranmere?

Btw, when's the tag tourney starting. I'm looking forward to it.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I dunno. I was going to finish the Deuce's Wild list and send it to Klunder so he could pick the pairs out of a hat, but - unusually - I have plans both this afternoon and this evening. I'm hoping to kick it off next Saturday. What an inconvenient time for my social life to recover.

There's never a convenient time for a social life to recover. It should stay dead or alive. it shouldn't flip flop.

 

[C.M.]

Social life?

 

[The Hiphopapotamus]

Social life?
