Only 30! sigh. I remember saying on Friday while drinking my third drink that I would kill everyone in the room to be 30 again.

I set a two-drink maximum recently and it has worked pretty well. except on Friday when I decided to drink a third drink which became kind of one of those keep topping it up so who knows how much was actually drunk drinks. It was partly the presence of my current crush but partly just stupidity. I did do the soft…

Oh it doesn't feel that impressive! It's all part-time studying because I dont know what else to do with my life/don't have the gumption to get on and try and succeed in other ways. I find being in a university environment very comforting so really it's been ways of making my life feel structured and secure, but it's…

Fitz & Simmons on Agents of SHIELD, however it's going to end up.

I've gone back to college to do a second MA and I'm a bit older than most people doing it, so solidarity with you both. I'm lucky in that my course has a wide range of people, most are late 20s and a few on the course are in their 60s even, so I don't stand out that much. Fewer 21-year-olds than I expected, anyway. I…

This is awesome, thank you. I'm going to get loads of kindle samples now!

A friend here keeps telling me we should both sign up for it, since we have tried going out to bars and neither of us is capable of approaching guys. And they sure aren't interested in approaching us… But I don't know if I can do it. And non-drinking activities aren't any better either, everyone you meet is married or…

With Banks, I would say start with something like The Player of Games rather than jumping straight into eg Excession though. A gentler introduction to the Culture will see you through better I think.

I find myself unable to read the title of the first one as anything other than A Blaffair to Rememblack now. Thanks, Tracy Jordan!

Hah. Good for you, I love stories that end that way :)

In Switzerland you can delay being banned until it's more convenient for you, which kind of completely negates the point.

Personally I think Antichrist and Irreversible are both excellent, essential films, and Martyrs is a pile of overhyped shite.

I love Lars to bits. He can do no wrong imho.

I'd watch a Steve McQueen-directed superhero movie.

upvoted for being an exact, exact description of me too.

Such a brilliant concept for a sitcom, such a great cast, and so well done. I miss it.

At least he let you know! People nowadays seem to believe that ghosting, as they call it, is totally acceptable :(

I did, because in my case it did happen ten years down the line, and it was just as bad as Jimmy is imagining.

I had a terrible feeling that it will turn out that she slept with Edgar after that party where they kissed, and that it will be his kid, and he will do the 'honourable 'thing and abandon Dorothy. Otherwise the whole Edgar-Lindsey thing will have been a strand started but abandoned, and this show doesn't usually do…

I so nearly signed up as Fat Lee Adama.
