Ta muchly!I know this is super late but I've been very busy.... Congrats on your job Suairyu!
Change your avatar already, Kent. You promised you would.
Ta muchly!
Imperial War Museum is great. Went there on Remembrance Day and it was the eeriest thing ever having the minute's silence and brass trumpet playing amount bombed out tanks.
Off to Trocedero for laser tag then more Namco fun today. I'm gonna try my best to get that Hello Kitty for Kazenone.
When you stock gems such as this, it's too tempting to resist...I saw you guys using that machine, you're never going to get it. The thing literally throws the toy back on the ground the moment it senses you trying to deliver to the collection bay!
ArticleThe Guardian said:Which brings us to another of today's revelations. Will there be more Gorillaz music?
"Er unlikely."
Really?
"Yeah."
That's a shame. Do you feel you're done?
"Jamie does, which is fair enough. I think we were at cross purposes somewhat on that last record, which is a shame. So until a time comes when that knot has been untied "
The project's demise, he says, is a "long story", which seems to have reached a head in 2010, when Gorillaz toured as a huge band, and Hewlett's visuals were not nearly as central to the show as they had been. "It was one of those things," Albarn says. "The music and the videos weren't working as well together, but I felt we'd made a really good record, and I was into it. So we went and played it."
So are you and Hewlett talking? Did you fall out?
"Erm well, that sounds very juvenile, doesn't it? But being juvenile about it, it happens. It's a shame."
ok Kent I will make an avatar for you
what theme do you want? Or just send me a picture of yourself.
the things i do to please Suairyu.
BLUE SKIES + SUNSHINE.
Suck it weather forecasters, you useless wankers.
And once everyone is at work the weather will shift to grey skies and rain so lots of people go home wet because they didn't pack a brolly. Welcome to the UK.
Weather isn't that great to be honest. It's still a bit chilly and the sun just gets in your eyes.
Fucking raining and cold as shit outside.
A bunch of dogs in the street are going into heat and my lab is licking the walls and shit(???)
Spring.
BLUE SKIES + SUNSHINE.

Hope y'all had a good easter!

yo shorty_symd the goodfella's episode was the highlight for me.
Went to an rental letting agency in Manchester yesterday and listened to some cocky sales type young lady bullshit for about 15 minutes. Was fucking infuriating.
- Every area of the city I asked about she swore dead that the price was about £200 a month more expensive than I saw online. "Spinningfields, oooh, you won't get a flat there for less than £900 for a studio", "But I saw some on Right Move for £700-750", "No they're only £900+, and Spinnigfields is rubbish anyway, West Didsbury is much better", "Oh, but I was hoping to live in Spinningfields", "Nah, it's not worth it". Your job isn't to tell me where I want to live you stupid cunt.
- She kept saying it would be a "bloodbath" in June (when I planned on looking) because "you'd be against the students and professionals" and that if I were her I should "get one now and just sit on it until August (when I plan to move)". That's not how it fucking works in reality! I can't pay 3 months of rent (probably around £1800) just to sit on an empty property.
- I mentioned that the rental market in Manchester is quite good for tenants, and that York is really bad. She said that "Manchester has no housing stock, it's really short on housing", I said "Yeah, but York is even worse, it's tiny!", "Yeah, but people aren't exactly looking to move to York for the city lifestyle (?)", "I pay £675 a month for a 1 bedroom flat outside of York city centre, that could get me a 2 bedroom flat in Castlefield!?", "Nah, people from down south (York is further north than Manchester? I'm also from Warrington, about 10 miles west of Manchester) always think it's cheap up here but it isn't".
Fuck letting agents. Fuck them. Every city in the world letting agents are scumbags of the highest order. If you're reading this and you're a letting agent, guess what, you're probably a cunt.
P.S. The letting agency was called "Thornley Groves" in the Northern quarter. Buyer beware.
I just look on Rightmove/FindAProperty's website, call for a viewing and if I like it, tell em I'll go for it.
Letting Agents are indeed scum of the earth. You always feel they're against you, or making up more fees, or lying about how you'll never be able to find a flat in x month. I guess my main issue is that finding a flat is a fucking horrible process, and letting agents always act as if getting every thing done is incredibly easy when it isn't.
Yup. They are the most dishonest people I have ever come across. It took me 2 months to get back my deposit after I left my old flat. They inspected the flat twice and just kept coming up with stupid excuses about how they can't contact the landlord. I don't usually shout over the phone but I am convinced that I would never have got back my full deposit back if I just played the "nice guy" card throughout the whole ordeal. oh, I also discovered Letting Agents don't like the words "lawyer" and "sue".
Sounds like you should have been this assertive when you went to see them! (Albeit with less liberal use of the word 'cunt', perhaps )
There wasn't really any reason to be. I was just helping one of the sales people move a brochure stand inside (it was raining) and got chatting. It wasn't like I was paying them or using them as a business so there wasn't really any reason for me to be aggressive, I just won't use them if possible.
It's the market standard though anyway unfortunately. It's the same with another agent in York (can't say their name, I'm using them, but they're the biggest in the city I think) but you can't just use someone else because at the end of the day the property/landlord is the most important thing, you won't take your business elsewhere because you want a specific apartment and it isn't worth souring relationships with some pricks if it loses you a nice flat you want.
I should be okay anyway, I've got 3 years of experience living in rentals, 3 good references and have never lost any deposit/left everything immaculately clean.
