Things you'd recommend others avoid.
Mine would be
'The Book With No Name.' and it's follow up 'The Eye Of The Moon’ by an author simply known as Anonymous.
The first is just about passable, but the 2nd, good God the 2nd.
Here they are on a website

Oh and by the way, there’s no avoiding my Mum.

Avoid all all-you-can-eat chinese buffets
Accidental this
The more upmarket ones, where you order as much stuff as you want off a menu are fine.
The ones where you go and get food out of a trough are not
I've never been to a off a menu ordering one.
Know a good one pray tell? I went to cosmo once when someone convinced me it "wasn't as bad as the others". Never again.
It might not be much use recommending you the ones I have visited
Unless you live in Newcastle-under-Lyme or Birmingham, or fancy a trip to either just for a Chinese buffet
If you accidently this someone
Let it go. Everyone loves a this.
Yeah, but I'd have looked a bit daft 'this'ing something
Only to (semi-)disagree with it in reply
Avoid the wearing of hats indoors
Can't, bad hair day.
I bet you're one of those scumbags
that sags their "beanie" during the height of summer whilst wearing shorts.
cancer
any sort of lube
beyond plain
Halifax
bank or place?
place
in west yorkshire
+ Huddersfield
+ Nova Scotia
nah
there was good music festival on there last month
yeah huddersfield has some good points
halifax however
i haven't been to halifax in years
i remember it being really nice though? the piece hall's good
Halifax is OK
Huddersfield ain't bad
Bradford is average
Cleckheaton is like it sounds
Avoid the purchase of stringed instruments under £100
nah man
can get some good 2nd hand squires that are handy for throwing around. whack some decent pickups in and a quick set up and you're away.
Don't think I'd stretch to £100...
...for a ukulele. Think mine cost £25.
newsflash:
it's shit
yeah second hand is a different market
and some squires are alright some are just horrible. I reckon buying pickups and fitting them, filing down shitty frets etc would be over 100 for parts and labour (my time is money to me) including the guitar.
nah you're wrong
if your starting learning, and not sure if you will stick with it or not just get a shit guitar.
likewise if you want to prentend you're the who/nirvana/whoever throws and smashes gear up then use shit gear.
King's X Dental Hospital
Avoid the sail boom as it crosses the boat when gybing.
Ah, sunday morning winter sailing with my dad.
Gybe ho!
What does that mean again da..
*knocked off boat*
your dad
Avoid discussion of sensetive political topics with strangers when overseas
I quite like doing that!
Avoid proof reading your post for spelling before submitting, apparently.
Threads about Feminism
assuming i'm trolling 100% of the time
What would be a safe percentage...?
i thought i replied for this
i aim to be trolling exactly 50% of the time
^trolling
anyone who trolls more than 0% of the time trolls 100% of the time
fact
ok, so maybe trolls is the wrong word. what i mean is that half of what i say is true and half isn't
what's the word for that?
bipolar disorder?
most of cat_race's most infuriating trolls are subtle and could be missed
for example asking DiS if outlook is slow today. A real spanner could genuinely ask this and be gently told that it doesn't work like that, but I think that c_r isn't one. hence a 100% assumption of trolling must be assumed.
that wasn't a troll. sometimes websites are slow at the server end
outlook. like what used to be hotmail

in a game of the floor is lava
Apologising to the statue of Ken Dodd in Liverpool Lime Street because you almost walked into it and momentarily thought it was a real human being
Makes you look a bit daft.
Fucking right you apologised.
No-one nearly knocks any incarnation of Dodd over.
It's made of brass and attached to the floor
I don't think a bulldozer could knock that thing over.
Sorry - I've just re-read your post
I thought you said Jason Dodd, not Ken.
Apologies.
I didn't mind The Book With No Name...
If you weren't that enamoured with it, why did you progress to the sequel?
Don't point out my obvious flaws
It's unbecoming.
Sugar
Agents (recruitment, letting, real, etc)
Heroin
ONce you get over the vomitting on the first few attempts, I believe it can turn out to be a bit moreish.
see, I don't even know if you're speaking from experience here
I have never been addicted to heroin
but I know somebody who has (is) :(
rejected Mighty Mighty Bosstones lyrics
funny enough
it never made me wonder if I should....
I did get that impression
had that in my head all day

Taking your fiancee for granted!
have you sorted it out then? :DDDDDD
Nope!
We're getting on very well, but still a lot of shit to work through. If its gonna happen its gonna take some time!
Deep down though i think i'm kidding myself that this is gonna work, but fuck knows!
That must be pretty tough
spenidng time otgether but not being together together (altohugh I cna totally see why you'd both want to hang on to something). Follow your instincts- if you're going to be together, you're going to be together (I don't know if this ever actually comes true, but it's what we mnust tell outselves).
It's really fucking tough, just feel so drained.
You're good with this stuff Oeuf, always really appreciate your feedback! :)

I'm surprised you could decipher it- all of those typos
You'll be grand my boy!
Cos i speak glasgow too! ;)

accepting a shoe shine from a small vietnamese boy in hanoi
^ I'd like you to give my leather a buffing
translates into Vietnamese with a different meaning
Marriage
Just live together.
I think I find myself in another serious relationship
then I'll put off moving in with them for as long as possible, and when we do move in, have a nice housewarming party instead of a wedding and just get on with things with no mention of marriage. So much easier.
and cheaper
God I'm getting cynical
I'm not somebody that's shy of throwing a wadload of cash at a party
especially if it's to celebrate something nice, like liking somebody enough to want to move your possessions under the one roof, and presumably (polyamorists aside) not have sex with anybody else until you agree otherwise. I'm just not sure the marriage aspect is something that means much to me.
But then I have soppy days when I can see myself skipping barefoot through a meadow in a floaty white frock with daisies in my hair. I don't get v many of those days.
You can still skip barefoot etc without
a ring on your finger
or you can put a ring on your finger
but not bother with the vows and all that and the showyness.
P.S.
MARRY ME
There's a thought....
the A14
the 17:39 from Cambridge to Kings Lynn
Kings Lynn
Kings Lynn's not that bad!
oh hey thewarn
someone nearly started on me on the 16:39 to Kings Lynn last night. He pushed in front of everyone to get on the train (before anyone got off) and I muttered "for fuck's sake" under my breath. he was all like "YOU WHAT???"... I would like to say I had a witty comeback for him at this point but I just mumbled "oh... nothing" and headed the other way. He had a No.2 crop and a West Ham jacket
Wasn't jacques_el_biscuit was it?
But how else will I get from The Midlands to Stowmarket?? :(
cat_race will recommend you scenic route
Nah you're alright - I'll just sit in the traffic for hours.
Ta.
That's the problem with the bloody A14
no viable alternative
If going to Norfolk
There's the A47 across to King's Lynn (from Birmingham/Leicester)
Probably even worse than the A14 though, at least that has a lane for lorries and a lane for cars. I imagine the A47 is probably littered with tractors.
It's a deathtrap
Several miles of single track road followed by a couple of miles with an overtaking lane. And its littered with tractors
Greek Salad Cheese
is that not just feta?
IN the same way that spanish cava and italian prosecco and french cremant are to champagne/champagne?
Presumably Feta that's built somewhere other than Feta-town
Like if you made a Melton Mowbray pork pie in Loughborough
indeed
like cured hams that aren't from parma (proscuitto).
or italian hard cheese that's not parmiggiano reggiano.
salad cheese is from cows milk
feta - from the goat
dont drink wee
see post below
sainsbury's basics wine
is that different to sainsbury's `house wine`?
because some of that is NOT BAD FOR THE PRICE.
yeah, it's £2
London
I'm going to heed your advice
and not read the book with no name but I'd quite like to know what happens, with spoilers, as the title and cheap website have intrigued me. Thanks.
I can't really remember.
It has a sort of Mexican rodreguiez vibe and there's wear wolves and vampires and other monsters involved. Like I say, the first one is kind is passable as a cheap pulp fiction book, but the second one is basically unreadable. There's talk of a film though so just wait for that, those sorts of things are a bit more palatable as a movie.
