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

[Uncle Sam]

I could have told you that much, Jake. I'd have to break my middle class persona to tell you, but 'organic' vegetables are overrated.

They're doing another posters tag tournament apparently. We should win it.

Organic, like I give a fuck about that shit.

I'll think of a name. Bubble & Squeak, maybe.

HMV club card points, returned as requested. Now I can get that card board Hulk Hogan.

Dear Jake,

Thank you for your email.

My colleague has informed me that we have unfortunately not been able to source this item on your behalf. The original supplier has sadly been unable to provide us with it. We have ordered it from an alternative supplier, but they have yet to be able to dispatch it to us either. Consequently, my colleague has cancelled this order as you have advised. I can confirm that I have just refunded the 145,000 points redeemed on this, plus 5,000 points as a goodwill gesture for the inconvenience caused by this.

Please accept my apologies for any disappointment caused.

Kind regards,

Matthew

Got this instead.

 

[Uncle Sam]

That Matthew seems like a nice chap. For some reason, I put everything I get at HMV on a friend's Club Card. I think the idea is we share the rewards. No idea why. And my plan to get on the staff at the local HMV was foiled again; those job vacancies fill up faster than lightning. Blast and double blast.

How did that dispute over the shoes on eBay pan out?

My God - it's what dreams are made of! I'm checking how many fucking points are on that card.

I had a good one, but it flew right out of my mind once you showed me that. I simply must have it! Maybe it's on eBay...

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Which one, I have lots?

My God - it's what dreams are made of! I'm checking how many fucking points are on that card.

That cost me the equivalent of a grands worth of spending. But it is cool. Most of the stuff they have is total shit.

Look up Hulk Hogan, I want the carboard cut out of him, but I'm a few point shy now. If I can't have him, I want you to get it.

I had a good one, but it flew right out of my mind once you showed me that. I simply must have it! Maybe it's on eBay...

Probably cheaper on e-bay. They had the Friends sofa the other week, somebody got there before me.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Which one, I have lots?

The one where they got damp and the man suspected that you simply wanted them for yourself. You were so dastardly that you gave him a full refund, remember?

If only I'd used the card when I bought all those blu-rays, I'd be well on my way.

It's not on there. Yet.

Oh yeah, that cunt. Heard nothing after my perfectly logical reply.

I'm laughing at you right now. Guess how many Blu-Rays I'll have once my Pixar thing arrives.

How much were the cards, £1 or £5? Either way, worth it in the long run, I was spending stupid ammounts of money in that shop anyway.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I'll never catch up with you, Jake. But my uncle who runs a bookies has a good shot, as long as you exclude all the porn you own.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

I don't have any porn on Blu-Ray, I was never that advanced.

By the time I get round to selling that porn it'll be out of date. I never watch Rectal Rooters anymore, but I couldn't get enough of it in 2003.

 

[Tastycles]

Do they only have one Hogan cut out? I had my eye on that too. Then I realised I was about £700's worth of points short.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

I assume they have several. It's promotional stuff so I think they get given more than they need.

HMV usually have in store competitions where you can win that type of stuff.

Screw you Jake! Regular people can buy that Pixar shit too. In fact, I think I will.

 

[HBK-aholic]

Aww I need that lamp!

 

[Uncle Sam]

I know, right? Come to papa.

 

[Father:_Polley]

My lamps are cool. They're turquoise...

 

[Uncle Sam]

Mine starred in a famous short film.

 

[Father:_Polley]

But mine's on at the minute

 

[Uncle Sam]

Mine just got cancelled because I remembered I don't like any of the films in the set with the exception of Wall-E. That's right Jake - I didn't want it anyway. I mean, the lamp would have been nice and all but I can do without.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

£100.00? I got mine for free. Or I will when they deliver it. The light had better work. Who the fuck would want a model of a light?

I think that must be a different set, Cars comes with mine.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Cars is terrible.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

It is, absolute shite. The rest are good though.

Have you seen the cases Terminator: Salvation & Transformers 2 come in if you buy them from HMV?

 

[Uncle Sam]

For once, I don't care what box Transformers comes in. It could come with a free attractive, sympathetic woman and I still wouldn't buy it.

Terminator Salvation intrigues me. Nobody seemed to care about it enough for it to have any sort of reputation.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

It's poor. It's not even ridiculously entertaining. It tries to be serious but it's not good enough to pull it off. None of the characters serve an actual purpose and the Arnie cameo could've been done better by myself.

And how the fuck do you survive a 300 foot drop into an ocean without breaking your neck? Not only that, how do you survive the crashing waves and the cold, long enough to swim to the depths of the sea so you can get in a submarine?

He's a robot? I should clarify that I haven't seen the film, nor do I have any real intentions to.
