To be fair I imagine a lot of Scots look like Dave
Didn't feel the groove at the after wedding disco. Blame the DJs terrible track selection (it's a wedding in Sweden and you only played ABBA after someone requested it? What are you playing at son?), the cold instantly sobering me up and seeing my dad on the dance floor (though I do have future blackmail material now).
Oh and I listened to the Space Harrier theme on the way there meaning the grooviest song of the night was before the wedding even started.

I need to meet this man so we can get drunk and arm-wrestle.
I definitely dug Halo 1 & 3 but I haven't played any since O.D.S.T. I can only take so many franchise instalments before I get bored. Same reason I haven't played Uncharted 3 or any of the CoDs since MW2.
They're a good looking bunch mostly so I'm taking that as a compliment!
One song that comes on at every wedding disco is
Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy, born and raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Once that song comes on its time to hit the buffet and bailout to a nightclub.

There's something about the dying moments of a wedding reception or birthday party (or, really, anything held in a large hall with a hired DJ, a buffet and a 'bring your own booze' policy) that I find magical. You're left with the really close friends/family, the extremely drunk and the desperately lecherous, chatting away tiredly or half-heartedly swaying to the last few songs.
It's depressing and uplifting at the same time. I love it.

I want to feel like part of one of these fancy Gaf communities. Sell me on your community, BritGaf.
The bail to a club policy is a life saver. There's just no point in getting that drunk and ending the night at 12/1pm.
I like when the buffet has food from a local Indian takeaway or something, Party sausages and mini sausage rolls just don't cut it.
This song always reminds me of the Sopranos ending. :/ What a brilliant show, have to watch it again.
Lol my guy died doing a pretty normal mining operation for some sand to turn to glass
Most of my awesome armor n shit fell down my hellevator Great show. I used to skip school and watch it Groovin back on VIRGIN ON DEMAND.
Dat episode with pauly , Chris and the russian dude = I get a warm feeling of nostalgia just thinking about it.
BritGAF is awesome - everyone (other than Chinner) is very nice & as long as you don't go to the toilet in a nightclub for an innocent piss, Kentpaul probably won't beat you up.
We're a pretty OK bunch, I think.
Fill out the questionnaire from the OP and sell US on YOU
But srs fill out the questionnaire!
And hang, just read KentPaul's posts, that'll sell you.
If you don't stay we'll chin ya
Woah woah woah. You have to sell us on you. Otherwise we'll shake you down for your lunch money.
The compulsory wedding reception songs are the YMCA, the Macarena (soon to be replaced by Gangnam Style no doubt) and New York, New York.

I've been treating the BBC Weather page a bit like a delivery tracker. Been refreshing in the hope it makes the snow come sooner.
Seems to be doing the opposite.

Kent will give you drugs, Musha will give you free bed and breakfast if you visit London, BGBW will give you free photoshops, SmokyDave will give you free Penthouse-quality sexual stories from his life, and Chinner will give you free snark.
Everyone else will treat you like decent peoples and the mods don't bother us unless you mention EviLore's name as he can't abide being spoken about without appearing out of nowhere and commenting. He's like a Jon Blow with hair in that regard.
Now fill out the census in the OP so we can decide if we like you or hate you based on where you live in relation to us.
Best thing about Saturdays.

According to my Windows 8 (yeah, I know) weather widget, there's supposed to be snow in Edinburgh. What snow?

I feel that if it's going to be this cold, it should have the decency to snow so the place can be all pretty.
Well, that's certainly a change from the norm.
Does this make me cool now?

It's just a bunch of people. Don't hang around, dive in. Where are you by the way?
And I'll do my level best to sell you some beads or jewellery if you get within 5 miles.
Er. That'll be a maybe Mike.
My friends always used to sing their made up verse (though they probably stole it from somewhere)
Tragedy!
When you're mums not home,
She is on TV
It's tragedy!
She's stripping off on BBC
It's hard to bare
When all you can see is your mum's pubic hair

Making lasagne today. Did the ragu the day before so I'm left with the usual conundrum of what consistency to make the cheese sauce. Internet recipes are all over the place varying from 1 oz flour to a litre of milk (too liquid) to 4oz flour (a bit too buttery). Going with 3 oz today and we'll see how it goes - seems to be the one quantity that nobody on the internet suggests.
Good man. Few people seem to follow the truth of "letting the sauce sit = a better tasting sauce"

Nice castle you got there. Who want's to bet that it'll be blown up by some monster before the end of the week?
Life kicking me in the face ? Ah that wouldn't be a problem. When your knocked down stand the fuck back up yo's. Worse shit that's happened to me was a blood moon and that wasn't shit.

Every single random tourists that has asked me to either show them directions to or buy them weed from a coffeeshop has been British. One had gotten out of the train in the wrong city about 10 miles from the coffeeshop he was looking for.

Speaking of lasagne. We were having a discussion about this over lunch... how come, the size of trays you'll make lasagne in - they must be pretty consistent, there can't be that many variants. Yet lasagne sheets never match either side in size, you always need to snap them and it's a pain. Then it's not properly covered. And you can't risk having it overlap.
We decided we should start a business in laser-cut-lasagne. You measure your baking tray, upload the details, and buy packs of perfectly-sized-laser-cut sheets of lasagne personalised for you.

Mebbe we should go for EuroGaf next time round? We'd have one hell of a party if Clegg and the Baron and Onkel are playing too (yeah, I know Clegg is kind of officially in, being Irish and all, but he ain't been around since the title change).
I once thought the coffeeshop owners hired some trumpet players to walk around slowly to trip out stoned tourists.
Major extreme shit going on with dat haze
Keep in mind a dutchman once took the throne of England way back when, We need to watch our step round these dutch people.
