FFFFound is pissing me off. It doesn't work for half the day, every day.
- OK, maybe it's because I'm using my neighbour's internet connection and not mine. Some sites don't load with his.Jaline
- But his connection is faster than my own. Possibly b/c we have like 6 computers using the same connection here.Jaline
- Someone's uploading on BitTorrent.ismith
- No, actually, I'm not. My internet connection is just shite.Jaline
- your followers are wailing and smearing themselves with excrement as we speak...Greedo

I'm taking the Internet apart, trying to find places to buy an original Munich 1972 Olympics Fencing poster. Blanka has them, but, as per usual, they are too expensive there.

To be fair, they are quite pricey at a lot of stores. eBay time.- When you put the internet back together, please make sure there are no leftover pieceslocustsloth

- "original" ain't gonna be cheap no matter how you slice itGreedo
- I soon realized that fact after searching around. Some of the prices are as high as $300, minus shipping. Thanks though.Jaline
- heh, I have the highest bid on that item right now. My username is suspect. Made it a while back...Jaline
- http://www.postertea…
this one's a bargain thenGreedo - ebay doesn't show usernames anymore i thought... 'bidder 3'Greedo
- my username is: deadjalineJaline
- Thanks, greedo. The one I bid on is still cheaper though (about $70), so I will go with that for now.Jaline
- how emoGreedo
- I'm not sure where I got it from. Must've been frustration from the lack of available usernames...Jaline
- Not from the blackness that coats your soul, tearing away all happiness like a greedy vampire?Greedo

did spooky post his super secret textured paper cutout technique yet or is this some fucking joke that i, being non-british, don't get?

Hey Greedo, you know what... I started writing out a "how to" in this very thread the last time you mentioned it. When it got to 15,000 words though I had to ask myself if the Blog thread was really able to withstand such a gross digression from its purpose, and also the upload time once I hit "broadcast" would have been about 6 hours.
Just look at the shapes. All straight lines, all naiive perspective like a child's drawing, but with a sort of isometric 3d depth to them. Draw the shapes you want in Illustrator. Fill them as solid shapes, no outline. Copy and paste each shape into Photoshop individually so each shape has its own layer in psd. get some heavily textured papers. Scan or photograph the textures. Open them in Photoshop, copy and 'paste-into' into each individual shape you pasted from illy. Now you have a new layer with the paper textues masked by the illy shapes you drew. For each layer, adjust levels, and pick a nice colour from you desired colour palette. Fill the layer with the colour with fill set to 'Multiply'.
To make the shapes seem a bit more hand made, fuck about a bit with the masks. Roughen the edges, do little hand smudges and then dodge and burn them back to crude hard 1bit edges. Just fuck about. There are a million ways to acheive that style of work. That's just one off the top of my head.
- Alternatly, break out the craft knives and blotting paper. Splash some paint, enjoy creativity.Spookytim
- Take it back from the computer. Ever seen Eric Carlé's work. Fucking lovely.Spookytim
- 'just fuck about'. Never have I seen a keener summation of the creative process.detritus
- Aye, that's why I chose it as my career. getting paid to just fuck about. Nobody told me it would end up like this.Spookytim
- ok, now i suggested the same thing in four words: "scan some colored paper", you just went for maximum verbosityGreedo
- but thanks for laying it all out... i thought you knew some arcane secret...Greedo

Every time I want to launch itunes to listen to my music, I click Stuffit Deluxe in my apps dock. I do this every single day.
Nuts.
- I do the same, but even worse, Excel opens..neue75_bold
- Peacock dreams...neue75_bold
- Every time you launch Excel, my lights go off.Spookytim
- and god masturbates a kitten...neue75_bold
- But its an act of love so its all good. No harm done and the kitten loves it.Spookytim
- In a strange way, God is actually the victim really. A slave to his perversion and the kitten merely exploits it.Spookytim
- feeling kinda planny, think I'll make a gant chart...neue75_bold
- self-fulfilling prophet, see...neue75_bold
- switch iTunes around with a program that you really should be working with.Jaline
- I mean switch the StuffIt icon, not the iTunes one.Jaline
- just have itunes start at startup, problem solvedGreedo

This morning when brushing my teeth, my flat mate was in the shower at the same time, we are pretty close, anyway he whips the curtain back to show me his cock, he then says this is about as close to any action as you'll be seeing for a while eh?. ye wee poofter. He then turned his bare ass to me and farted pretty much in my face. I believe it is called tough love.
- hmm, we call it something else where I'm from..neue75_bold
- Have you ever been duped into eating dog chocolate?Spookytim
- something about something being more than a river in Egypt..neue75_bold

Call the kitty 'crumple nut' :D lovely stuff, I love how the wee scrumpy scrumps has come across to you for safety and love and it's pure relaxed enough to have a wee sleepy sleep, adopt her or him forever :D. Train it to steal naughty pastries from delis and you and crumple nut can eat them as you dangle your legs over a wooden pier you have a bigger piece of pastry to crumple nuts smaller piece and you look at crumple when it's eating it's pastry and you both smile as best as a cat can smile and you ruffle it's naughty mane :D.

I've just received some information from Tescos...
"Mango is an ideal source of natural sugars. Ideal for a boost a boost of energy"
and then, almost as an afterthought they add
"A great snack"
This was communicated to me via screen printing on recyclable plastic.
Thanks for your time.

arg, now to add to the rest of the shit, I may not be able to take up my guestie for the upcoming festival because, having lost my passport, I have none of the essential photo ID I need to pick up my ticket and hospo wristband at the gates. Hope the neds enjoy drinking the lager they bought from my site in the campsite, the cunts.
