Yeeeaaaaah, one of my packages got Arrival Scanned at Botany.

The other is still in transit from Shanghai, having started at Stansted and dropped in on Paris and New Delhi along the way.

CATURDAY :D
 
That is some low grade poly carpet there Holy. At least the landlord won't even know if a cat was there!
Also super cute cat, you can see in the eyes that it already loves you despite the natural instinct for it not to let its guard down after being hurt so many times in the past. Good man!

Saweet, only got the co-op cheevos left on Far Cry 3. Let me know if you guys wanna run through them on 360.

Also fuck the AI.

Silenced sniper rifle.
100m away in heavy brush.
Bullet misses a patrolling guards head by a metre or so.
Instantly aims shitty, workmanlike AK47 at me in indiscriminate bushland.

The fuck? Keep it a little realistic at least Ubi for fucks sake. Hell, the best option through the entire game is just throw a rock over a guards head so you can do an automated takedown, resulting in no spent ammo, no aiming required, no chance of missing and starting an alarm, more XP as well as follow up takedowns possible! It's like Splinter Cell Conviction x1000.

I feel like I'm cruising for a ban if I keep on reading these imbecilic OT posts.

I can bear cpp-is-whatever talking shit about used game sales, because it's just used game sales.

But encountering a true all-rounder dumbass in the wild is an amazing thing.

Yeah, I gave up on him. I didn't realise he was the same wanker I got into it with a while ago on gaming. Truly an amazing specimen.

Okay, I wanted to watch Thunderball tonight but they royally fucked up the sound mix really fucking bad. The music/action effects are super loud and the conversation mix is super low, so it is loud enough that the car wheels squealing/people shooting is making the neighbourhood dogs still bark yet I cannot hear a word being said.

Nice job guys! Will have to wait for morning.
Or maybe I'll treat it like a foreign movie and just go with subtitles/sound effects >.>

On the plus side the picture quality is fantastic.

Ordered Vita + LBP + Fifa + Starter Pack for from JB Hi-Fi last week. Got message telling me they were out of stock so I have to wait a while. Afraid it might not make it before Christmas.

*sigh*

Willing to cancel my order and just buy from EB now. Can't find button to cancel order on JB website. Have no choice but to wait patiently..

Don't forget, there's an email from Sony which will get you a free 8gb card. And when I traded in that All-Star Battle game, I think because I joined their club or whatever I got $22 for it which was enough to cover Lumines ES.

I'm still not sure on PSN yet, whether it can be used without potential bannings or whatever. Gotta wait for someone to fill me in on the Vita CFW thread first :)

Fuuuck, apols for the double post, guys.

cpp is king is a perennial defender of corporate rights. I gave up discussion with him over batman online pass. He has no sympathy for consumer rights and never will. Move on, dont even bother trying to change his opinion.

Yeah, I gave up on him. I didn't realise he was the same wanker I got into it with a while ago on gaming. Truly an amazing specimen.

My concern (unfounded) is that he works for some company that does that kind of DRM, so I just assume its a propaganda argument and ignore it like all advertising.

Ignore lists are handy. They make posts stand out, but sometimes they are essential.

Fucking neighbours. Complaining about us drinking outside at 9:30, after telling our agent about us playing backyard cricket at 6 in the the evening and skating down down the shared driveway at 1pm. I know that they have no legal leg to stand on but at the same time our agent would probably take their word over ours. The weekend that five of our mates that -coincidentally - came back for a visit from the mainland/overseas.

Ugh. I miss my old place in north Hobart with an empty lot out the back, bong smokers on the left and a business on the right.

Sorry for venting, I do lurk here but rarely have have anything to contribute, but it's a fucking peak out. #livejournal
 
Is Never Say Never Again in the set? If so, just watch that since it's the same movie.

lol MGM bought the rights for one reason only

I actually really love Never Say Never Again. Fantastic performances all round and I enjoyed the more human elements woven into the story than the quirky shit the EON movies were doing at the time. Shame it is impossible to get now. Seems they did a decent, quick job restoring it. Region locked the the US, goes for like $80 on eBay. :/

It's like someone took a Courier Mail or Daily Telegraph letter to the editor and made it longer, dumber, more pompous, less empirical etc. Dipshits who think they have the universal answer to society's problems and, would you fucken believe it, it magically joins up with their way of thinking. It's like when Philip Jensen or George Pell tell us that "people thinking of themselves as individuals" is why everything is shit.

I have a feeling you have the same morbid interest in Murdoch letters to the editor that I do, it's only reason I buy the - not necessarily evil but endearingly imcompetant - Hobart Mercury.

I know! I bought a cd (really) from them a few weeks back. Shipping was quick, price was pretty good. It's almost as shocking as getting good customer service from telstra

Before JB came they had both woeful selection and woeful prices. They summed up everything wrong about the pre-Internet Tasmanian shopping environment.

Letters to the editor (admittedly, not to newspapers and definitely not to Murdoch papers) are my area of research. I do find them fascinating, whether good or terrible, fluent or incomprehensible.

Awwww at Tassie pic. Should get down there next Christmas.

Edit: and the biggest proportion of bogans per capita

My uncle owns a few houses up at Coles Bay. Used to go up there once or twice a year. Generally don't any more for one reason or another. But it's always a bit of fun. Bit too many giant spiders and jumping ants for me, though. And dead things along the beach.

I always liked going fishing, though. And cooking up some abalone.

What other letters to the editor are there in Australia ? (Honest question). Tas Gaf might share my wonder at Margaret Ratcliffe's monumental stupidity.

Yeah my neighbour has had a shack there as long I can remember. Amazing spot, really need to go up again.

Does paypal take a while to show where payments came from? I sold 2 things tonight. I checked my PP and I have money in it but it doesn't say any transaction was done. So I have no idea which person it's from. Should that update soon?

It should be pretty instant.

No, not strayan stuff. Correspondence sections of European and American literary and scholarly journals.

There is, incidentally, a Gold Coast-based cock called Frank Hainsworth who writes imbecilic letters to the editor to pretty much every Australian newspaper going, pays to have books of his own letters privately published, and then donates those books to public libraries. Fascinating, awful creature.

Wow

I almost want to go deeper.

Bare in mind that this woman thought that the Greens should be executed for treason.

San!ty still exists!?!?!
More than that, the company that owns Sanity bougth out the franchisee of HMV over here, converting all their stores into Sanitys!

Which also meant that they pulled out the discs of every product, put them behind the counter and made every transaction at least 5 minutes long as they search for what you want to buy. Huzzah!

It a new house, environment and strange people are around. Sometimes it takes a day or so for an animal to become comfortable.

Just give Michaela's Boobs some time.

Edit: It's good that you're worried, too. Just try to think of the changes that Michaela's Boobs is having to deal with and give her time :)

yeah she ended up eating a little bit of the dry food (i tried another bowl) so now i've just put her in the bathroom where the kitty litter tray is for 15 - 20 minutes (about 15 minutes after she ate) just to encourage poopy times
