If there's at least one thing I can claim to be great at, it's my use of GIFs.
But you've been known to post tumblr gifs so that counters that point.
^As seen above.

Don't tell me what to do, goddamnit.
As does Ninja. You can find some good GIFs on Tumblr if you look deep enough. I'm already right down the rabbit hole so I know where to go. And Jedeye, man, my mind skipped to LOST for a fleeting moment but then Tangled.But you've been known to post tumblr gifs so that counters that point.
I know I'm on the tail end of this Son of D, but I'll offer some advice.
One thing I've learned which helps me a lot is to stay one step ahead of your mind, to recognize common but problematic thought patterns and deal with them before they start to control your perception and interaction with the world. One of the issues with the human brain is that once a thought pattern like depression, paranoia etc becomes commonplace, your brain will follow those patterns subconsciously and it becomes really difficult to change your mindset.
This has all become a bit pseudosciency. When you can, try to step back and see what causes those kinds of feelings, how that affects you and what makes you feel better. Tackle those individually as opposed to all at once so they are manageable. Then you can mull them over, apply some reason and rationality and figure out how to stop thoughts you don't want before you get them.
I can sympathise with the new mates thing though. Last bit of advice, I'm not sure if it applies to you or not though. Say you're in a situation where some friends (but ones you're not fully relaxed and comfortable with) ask if you want to do something on a weekend, go somewhere, and you're uncomfortable/anxious because you think it might be awkward or you won't enjoy yourself: do it. Summoning some determination to do something you're not confident about and then having a good time is a wonderful feeling. Even if it doesn't go that well, you'll know you tried and won't be sat thinking "what if?" many nights later.

I suspect everyone in BritGAF has a Vita by now after how much Dave goes on about it.
In case some haven't seen it, this is the Vita bargain currently being posted around GAF:

No idea if the games included are any good. They're just PSP games though right?
LittleBigPlanet and Wipeout are the best ones there. Although I can't say that I've played Little Deviants and Motorstorm RC. No idea why the Ratchet art on the front is from Q-Force when the PSP game is in the pack.
Please tell me i'm not the only one that finds Mrs Brown's Boys terrible. I just don't understand how it's entertaining.
I'm sure this has been discussed before but this is something that came up in conversation the other day and just wanted to make sure i wasn't crazy.
Miranda is top tier comedy man. I like the episode where she falls over and winks at the camera a lot.It's fucking awful.
The only reason it exists is so that Miranda doesn't have to be the worst show on TV ever.
It's fecking awful.

The one thing I do like about Mrs Brown's Boys is he way the cast will occasionally fuck up their lines or someone goes ad lib and they don't edit it out.
extra challenge - everyone try to use different artists from your first mix. At least 50%
I'm a bit like beetlejuice, people like to say my name but they don't actually want me about.
FTFY
But in my opinion Miranda is worse.

How do we go about making said mixes; what are the protocols?
A few year's back I was spending Christmas with some distant relatives and they loved Mrs Brown's Boys. Had to sit through the whole Christmas special.
7" Singles only, mixed onto cassette.

I'll let you take charge on this if you like the idea, Jed (we all know how disorganised I am anyway), but maybe we should just all get involved in that Shared Music folder we have on dropbox? Can we trust everyone here not to load horrific pornography into it?

Is this going to be like when you guys were using ThisIsMyJam? It was funny when certain members threw a hissy fit and flat out refused to listen to YouTube links because "you're not doing it right" or whatever.
Recommending music, serious business.
Everyone has different ideas about it. Personally, I think you should get the MP3s and make new copies of them. re-Import them into your prog of choice (I use iTunes) and change the album name to your mix title and re-number them in the appropriate order. Mark it as a compilation as well. That way, when folks import it into their library it'll be a bona fide album ready for playing.
People that didn't do this last time made it less likely for me to indulge their tastes, so ANGRY was I already. I'm looking at you, Tashbrooke!
Then when it's all done upload it to your dropbox and pass links around. I think last time there was some kinda master document but it was patchy.
Yeah it's free, you'll get a certain amount of storage for free but maybe someone here can set you up with a referral for more space.Thanks. I uh don't have a dropbox. Is it free? Cos I like free stuff. Especially when it's free. Most notably: air.
We doing that mixtape thing again? I'm sooooo using Spotify this time round.
I'll be honest, I'm a complete luddite with this stuff. I've never used Dropbox, I have spotify but never use it, I just use YT and occasionally grooveshark if it's something really obscure. Plus, I don't have a PC (Pats has a laptop), so I may need some guidance on how to build a playlist.
I just read Jed's post about how to do it, but I got confused. I thought iTunes was really picky about exporting music? "Copy the files and drop them into a new playlist"? I don't get it. :/
oh no you fucking don't!!!
Ugh, it was such a pain arranging it and sorting it out, sending it, cover arting and shit. Gaaaaaawd!
Also, I loved ThisIsMyJam until everyone stopped using it. Granted, the youtube selection was shit as shit.
Ah cool, this sounds easy enough!You could just bundle together whatever mp3s you want as a rough playlist, put them in a zip file and upload this to dropbox along with a text file with your suggested running order. Don't worry so much about the playlist thing.
but that's what makes is special
The Shins are fine, but they're almost offensively inoffensive. They're like the musical equivalent of a plain cheese sandwich.
Mild cheddar, no butter.
I had a vita and a 3DS but I just never played them. Got rid of them both a few months back. They're both a great bit of kit though!
You're not crazy man, it might be the worst thing that's ever appeared on a television screen.
But I... errrrr, kinda tolerate Miranda. By virtue of it being on after Eastenders it's usually on it the background on a friday. At first I hated it, but then slapstick is pretty much always funny. And so I watched a bit and I chuckled. Not a full on laugh, but a smile played across my lips. It's very throwbacky but she has enough charisma to pull herself through the old-style setup of the show.
And she was on Richard Herring's podcast and was hilarious, which automatically gave her +10 points for me.

eh wasn't that something like having a woman treat you like shit and humilate you?
The Freudian implications are interesting I guess.
The problem with This Is My Man is they didn't have a playlist based on your tastes. It would show you individual tracks, but you couldn't just not play and listen to them all.
That and while I took the time to find/make album art and a nice background most just plastered any old pic on their page. Interesting concept flawed execution.
If you look at Ghosts as 'Generic First-Person Shooter WITH ADDED DOGS' then it's an okay game. Not good, not great, but okay. At best it's tolerable. The framerate is bad, yes, but it's not entirely unplayable. I only play it for online. I like to piss people off with my amazing sniper skills.
