I dont think Prince counts as a 'new' frequency anymore.
I dunno Sploatee but I get the sense you'll be still waiting considering that I lack the motivation to post any good songs this morning as I'm in too deep at work and most of it is going over my head.
le epic troll face xD
Hmmm based on the criteria maybe the new Bonobo EP? I really like the title track Flashlight on it.
By the way I saw People Under The Stairs last Friday with a couple buds, was pretty solid they gave out free limited live LPs.
Oh and I have the chance to see either Amon Tobin or Bluetech this Friday as my birthday gift to myself. Which do I go with? I was leaning towards Amon but I've known Bluetech for years and they could be cool.
No joke I like them. :/
Aww yeah, she had that "I'm coming up so you better get this party started". How fitting ha!
Aww cheers mate
checking that EP out now.and man I'm still jelly that you got to see People Under The Stairs :O

I need to vent.
On Monday I had to relay some information to one of our teams working on a phone campaign. I went over and said to everyone in the team in a light-hearted manner: "Listen up, Phone Monkeys!" and proceeded to relay said information. I've often referred to myself as a Phone Monkey numerous times on the phone to customers and in conversation with others in the office.
I get in this morning and get called into the office and told that one of the team took the day off Tuesday because she was so upset about it.
The team member in question makes digs at me ALL THE FUCKING TIME (for example, she called me a misogynist two days after joining because I jokingly referred to Sleeping Beauty as a lazy bint) and I've never mentioned anything she has said to anyone but the wife. Whenever she comes up in conversation during management meetings I am nothing but complimentary about her, her skills and the value to the team. Im also really bloody nice to her despite her sniping. I say one jovial line to EVERYONE IN THE FREAKING TEAM (not just her) and she's crying about it in the office, takes a day off, and I get a face full of shit.
I'm absolutely fuming. Im never fuming.

God is a DJ and Feel Good Time are the best.
Nothing wrong with that. They did a song with Ray Charles!
You don't sound like a very nice boss from what you've said in here.

To be honest with you, I don't blame her at all. Comparing humans to monkeys is one of the most offensive things you say to someone. We are not monkeys we are human beings and it is disgusting to compare the two. If I worked in the same company as you, I would report you to HR. Monkeys are covered in hair and they eat fleas and do not have the ability to talk or reason and they have prehensile toes and non monogamous sexuality and they do not wear clothes and they have no shame and do not have a concept of God and therefore do not have souls and will not be able to go to heaven. Therefore calling someone a monkey is the most offensive thing you can ever do to a person.
I think you should apologise to her and make sure she understands that you do not reject her humanity and her presence before God. Otherwise you are no better than a devil, or Richard Dawkins.
I am sorry to become so heated, this is near to my heart. Humans are better than monkeys because we have been gifted a conscience and we need to learn how to use it properly.
Thank you.

If you said either of these things to me I think I would have to punch you in the face. It's disrespectful.
I think this is why it's best that I do not work.
If you honestly believe I'd walk into the middle of the office of a very reputable collection agency and call a load of staff 'daft cunts' then...well, you gotta lot to learn about me. Harshest words I used against one member of staff is 'ignorant slouch' when she kept fucking up the targets.
Edit: Shits about to go dooown. Screaming Meat has awoken the beast.
Considering that you're an incredibly cheerful person when I met you I feel your pain
Shame your workmate can't share the same sense of humour as yourself. She sounds like quite uptight and dead inside.roundabout

This is an excellent choice of words my friend. The beast, father of all lies, Mammon, enemy, dragon, devourer, deceiver, demon, Son of the Morning, prince of devils.

Most films made by hollywood are satanist propaganda anyway, I try to pay them no heed. I believe that evolution is a plot to move humanity further away from God. Unfortunately it is working in spades.
edit: there are exceptions though, Ghostbusters is excellent for exposing the youth to ideas about the evil of spirits, and the films of Tyler Perry are very spiritually enlightening. Also, there are lots of informative documentaries on youtube.
I don't think Spades understand the concept of evolution, and I'm not sure if god minds they don't believe in him.

Acrid comes in, mentions Bonobo, People Under The Stairs and Amon Tobin in one post. Heart that guy.

I keep hearing about this Smash game but I've never played it because I can't play nintendo games. What's so great about it?
She sounds like a healthy and well adjusted young woman.
She wouldn't last two minutes in my office. We'd give her a nervous breakdown.
Holy Shit.
a good boss would be stern with his people, not docile
For me it's because it's a party/fighting game which can either be totally casual and used just to button mash with family, but with and in the right settings it can turn into a really deep and interesting fighting game with interesting mechanics.
EDIT: because why the hell not (from the OP)

A party game? I don't think I would get much use from it anyway then, even if I could play Nintendo games LOL!
You don't know anything about my management style. Don't assume you do.
Wahhhhh I'm going to report you.
Just a bit of banter. Don't pull a knife on me there, pally.
Shut up, you daft cunt.
Preeeeeetty sure there's worse things to do to other people than that.
I never really thought about monkeys not having a soul, it just doesn't sit right with me somehow. I mean yeah insects and reptiles and amphibians etc not having a soul is fine, but the idea that your pet doesn't have a soul is kinda heartless. I reckon intelligent mammals would probably have their own version of the afterlife
without extremists making life difficult for everyone else in the species.

You'll be there a while chuck. Might want to nip to Homebase and buy one of those knee pads that gardeners use.
Not you too Smokey Dave
I will pray for you and your child.
I'm going to listen to Franz Ferdinand or whatever today's Linkin Park emo music is.

God created man in his own image, not animals and therefore we have an immortal soul whereas animals don't - http://www.apologeticspress.org/apcontent.aspx?category=11&article=582
Nothing that will eat its own faeces can have a soul LOL!
Hey man, each to their own. no need to call anyone a nutjob.

sparks yay!
yesterday my girlfriend and i went looking for flats in manchester, found one and went to rent it only to be told it had already gone that morning despite ourselves AND another couple having just been shown it at four in the afternoon. bah. what a waste of everyone's time.
it's freezing in my store. to the point where a customer decked in a big coat and wolly hat complained about the temperature. i only have a polo shirt on.
in other news xcom is great and an actual game with some of my actual music might be actually released on the wii-u. that is pretty cool shit.
roundabout is my new favourite joke character.

I pray sitting down because I have bad knees.
I was team leader more than manager. And graphic design had always been on the cards, ever since high school. The collections agency job was a job to keep me going while I get my business running.
Ah, you'll be alreet then pet. Your thoughts are much appreciated.
You couldn't ask the big man upstairs to get me an Xbone, could you?
No offence was meant, brah, it was a joke.
You should check the Cheap Arse Gaffer thread more often Dave:
Yep, managed to get in on that Microsoft Store glitch too. Still waiting on that cancellation email....
There was a post on Hotdeals last night about an error on the Microsoft store last night letting you order 2 x XB1 for £299
Just waiting for them to cancel my order now
Why would you want an XBone when Senran Kagura is likely to never appear on that platform?
