NotNozireV
15:55:01
I did not watch my footing while I was jogging and landed on it wrong.
GBRedneck
15:55:19
that doesnt sound good
GBRedneck
15:55:29
have you consulted with Dr Mom?
NotNozireV
15:55:43

NotNozireV
15:55:56
I'm actually going to do that next time shes on
NotNozireV
15:56:41
"Dr_Mom I made an owie with my foot, do you have any advice?"
GBRedneck
15:58:33
so whats the plan for today?
NotNozireV
15:59:26
I will never forgot the last time I sprained something and went to the hospital, there were so many sick people there. I felt like such wimp being there with a whittle sprain.
NotNozireV
16:00:30
I will also never forget the sounds of one baby screaming in the waiting room. It is one of the most haunting things I've heard in my life.
NotNozireV
16:02:31
Anyway, I plan to work then cry tonight because I can't jog :(
NotNozireV
16:03:01
I was doing so good too
GBRedneck
16:04:55

NotNozireV
18:51:46
The round pebble watch looks so ugly

I like it, very simple and it feels nice on my wrist
NotNozireV
19:38:37
I did have to turn off the heart rate monitor, I just didnt feel safe having the two green lasers in it pointed at my wrist 24/7

i booted up one of my other machines today and ended up in drama
GBRedneck
19:52:58
nothings changed
NotNozireV
19:53:02
heh
NotNozireV
19:53:04
Figures
NotNozireV
19:53:46
I don't want to be associated with that horrid place in any way
NotNozireV
19:53:54
Its a major disaster waiting to happen
GBRedneck
19:54:12
the whole thing was fun to begin with
GBRedneck
19:54:30
but its not fun or even acceptable now
NotNozireV
19:54:52
I just went there to talk trash but I draw the line at stalking people and death threats.
GBRedneck
19:55:24
makes me wonder if there really was truth in what ceho was saying
NotNozireV
19:56:34
what did she say? ...actually do I want to know? lol
NotNozireV
19:57:03
I just don't want to see anyone get hurt
GBRedneck
19:57:21
you know when she was talking about the death threats a few months ago
NotNozireV
19:58:33
oh right
GBRedneck
19:58:42
anyway thats in the past
NotNozireV
19:58:47
Well, thats a given for media companies
NotNozireV
19:58:56
I was actually suprised they didnt have any security
GBRedneck
19:58:56
am done with that chatroom
NotNozireV
20:01:13
I don't want to see it, I don't want to know whats going on with it and if anything happens I don't want it on my hands. The place is just asking for trouble and the last thing I want is to be dragged in front of a grand jury answering questions about what I did or didnt do.
GBRedneck
20:05:53
Am really impressed with that dell machine mate
GBRedneck
20:05:56
runs lovely
GBRedneck
20:06:14
had i not already got more laptops than i know what to do with i'd have bought one
GBRedneck
20:06:23

I had two laptops so I gave one to my aunt
NotNozireV
20:14:31
Felt great getting rid of
NotNozireV
20:15:58
One thing I don't understand is the lack of flat screen tvs at Goodwill stores
GBRedneck
20:19:13
really?
GBRedneck
20:19:22
over here they wont take electrical good
GBRedneck

Good lord the UK seems like a really annoying place lol
NotNozireV
20:20:31
No offense
GBRedneck
20:20:44
yup it is mate
GBRedneck
20:20:49
they wont even take lamps
NotNozireV
20:20:58
oh gawd
GBRedneck
20:21:00
thanks to the wonderful European Union
NotNozireV
20:21:12
Here the only thing they wont take is firearms lol
NotNozireV
20:22:02
You could drop off a bag full of garbage, the guy wouldnt care
NotNozireV
20:22:44
Anyway, i suppose the lesson here is do not let hippies take over anything
GBRedneck
20:23:43
with europe its more like fucking nazis
NotNozireV
20:24:54
"Hey maaaan, what we gave ISIS fighters had jobs maaaaan?"
NotNozireV
20:25:07
crap I screw that up lol
GBRedneck

lol
NotNozireV
20:25:27
..."Hey maaaan, what we gave ISIS fighters jobs maaaaan? Peace and love, maaaan!"
NotNozireV
20:26:45
I'll be honest, when I see clips of those refugees I do not like the fact that they're 99% dudes. I do not like that one bit.
NotNozireV
20:26:47
Just seems really weird.
GBRedneck
20:27:12
its all very fucked up, one stupid picture oa dead child and the world falls to pieces
GBRedneck
20:27:26
and suddenly europe decides we'll take in 120000 of them
GBRedneck
20:27:31
its a tucking joke
NotNozireV
20:27:36
...hippies
GBRedneck
20:27:44
*fucking joke
NotNozireV
20:28:00
I got it
NotNozireV
20:28:02
It really is
GBRedneck
20:29:40
i should feel bad about saying that sort of thing, but i dont any more
NotNozireV
20:31:01
Look, I would fee terrible about the situation these people have been placed in but something about this just doesnt seem right. Again, 99% dudes is what weirds me out.
GBRedneck
20:31:23
yup its kind of strange
NotNozireV
20:32:17
I'm going to quote a song by the Five Man Eletrical Band... *ahem*
NotNozireV
20:32:37
"...And the sign said, Anybody caught trespassin' would be shot on sight. So, I jumped on the fence and-a yelled at the house "Hey, what gives you the right to put up a fence to keep me out or to keep mother nature in?" ..."
NotNozireV
20:32:49
...Dang hippies
NotNozireV
20:34:29
So anyway, enough about the hippies
GBRedneck
20:34:49

GBRedneck
20:58:40
no thats shoreham about 50 miles from me
NotNozireV

Its strange to see so many jets and no single prop planes there
GBRedneck
21:01:58
its all private jets there

and NTSC transmissions in analog?
NotNozireV
21:23:09
I do see a future in OTA especially when 4k and 8k become the norm
GBRedneck
21:23:33
it'll never catch on
NotNozireV
21:23:47
I doubt internet based system will be able to catch up but OTA could do it easily ...IMO
NotNozireV
21:24:05
Since its one way
NotNozireV
21:24:25
I remember there was a company that tried cable over OTA
NotNozireV
21:24:28
It was called USDTV
NotNozireV
21:24:34
Its a shame it went bankrupt
NotNozireV
21:24:46

we have OTA HD here

i think we have 4 or 5 free HD channels
NotNozireV
21:25:06
When did that go live over there?
GBRedneck
21:25:17
about 3+ years ago
NotNozireV

hmmm. I always thought you would have been first. very interesting
GBRedneck
21:25:49
might have been longer
NotNozireV

Did they give alway HD converter boxes?
GBRedneck
21:25:57
no
GBRedneck
21:26:28
freeview which is OTA digital went live 2002
NotNozireV
21:27:13
I think HDTV went live here around ...2005ish
NotNozireV
21:27:23
I was an early adopter before anyone even heard of it
