    I made a decision a couple months ago to start a move back to London for my girlfriend. She moved to London recently, part of her reason to move and study there was to be with me... I delayed my move back by 2 months... much upset caused... but I've realised now I love the city of Lisbon more than my girlfriend. I mean ~ I love Lisbon! I hear my self thinking it. God damn this place is awesome. Everyday there's something charming. I stopped checking the weather forecast as every day is the same, only before October the temp is slowing increasing towards 35c, and afterwards slowly decreasing. I've forgotten what a 100% cloudy sky looks like, and if it rained it'd want to go outside and dance around in it, so infrequent it is. The last weekend of September and it's bright hot sun, 30c+ and as soon as I dive into the clear blue sea, which has a nice temp of 20c, I see a school of fish and feel like I'm in another world... and it only took 30mins on the cheaply priced €1.90 train to get to the beach! And did I mention the women were topless on the beach! Heaven it is! European heaven. I bought a bottle of the new season wine, locally grown in Lisbon district, 3 types of grapes, one other best fruit fresh red wines I've ever had = €1.99!!! Life lived simply, purely, and humbly...

    Is it possible to love an inanimate city more than a person?

    I guess one thing brings me more happiness than the other...

    Fuck - I've got to get back here before fucking economic suicide Brexit! God damn you fucking idiot leave voters!!! With your regional accents, stuck up north under a constantly grey clouded sky, complaining about immigrants and sovereignty and the dictatorship of the EU... Have you not been to Portugal you fools?!?!?!?!

    As I previously mentioned... went back to Uni.

    Met this chick a few weeks ago... we have only one class together and we seem to get along. Today we hung out working on our projects and crashed a uni christian event with free food just to grab a handful of hot dogs and came back to the studio to keep working.

    It's the first time I have to use the "half your age + 7".

    Feel like a creep.

    I hate steak.

    Was bought dinner last night, had a big three course sharing thing for the table. The main was ribeye steak. Horrible. Doesn't really register as actual edible food to me. Big rank slab of chewy indigestible meat. I don't get it. Feels like it'll be in my bowels for weeks.

    It was at Gaucho too so wasn't a quality issue

    Don't understand. People live that shit.

    • Do hate meat or Picasso more?utopian
    • I genuinely don't have hate in my body. Not for anything or anyone. However, I dislike eating steak, and find Picasso's work to be utterly mediocre.set
    • I mean I know I said I hate steak. But I hate steak like I love Indian food. You know, not literally. Just like you're not literally a cunt.set
    • We're both literally wankers though, I'm sure.set
    • Well that escalated quickly. From steak to wank in 30 seconds.set
    • I'm starting to think similarly and I love steak (not literally). Ribeye is too loose and sinewy and hard to chew, so you end up swallowing it in lumpsFax_Benson
    • and then not sleeping as you digest it overnight, leading to nightmares and 'meat sweats'Fax_Benson
    • Whereas fresh fish literally makes me feel healthier afterwards.Fax_Benson
    • MEAT IS MURDER and it tastes gooooodcruddlebub
    • There's a certain ratio between charred surface and raw inside that has to be just right for it all to work.fruitsalad
    • as a former steakhouse owner, i don't concurGnash
    • i'm sceptical to all raw meat in general after reading an article on parasites.
      I like the food, but its a mental thing which prevents me from enjoying it

    • Gaucho went down hill a bit a few years ago, sadly. Steak's my favourite meal, but there's no enjoyment in a mediocre one, so I very rarely eat it these days.detritus
    • The trick is to kill the meat (make it well done) before you eat it.pr2
    • I actually judge people based on how well they cook their beef - anything other than well done and i know you don't know s--- about food and only follow trends.pr2
    • So steak should only be cooked well done? Christ, I'll have to tell my Dad's Argentian chum whose restaurant we've been going to since the 80s..detritus
    • ..clearly he's a foolish trend-follower who knows nothing about quality, enjoyable food. What an idiot!detritus
    • http://i.imgur.com/f…Gnash
    • ^ i used to do this at my placeGnash
    • I'm quite jealous that you had a steak restaurant. It's one of those idle, never-going-to-happe... fantasies of mine for when I'm older.detritus
    • you dont like steak?? https://www.youtube.…Al_dizzle
    • (it had it's moments, detritus. but so much work)Gnash
    • I too judge people based on how they order their steak, and if they order anything other than medium rare, I know they don't know shit about steakmonospaced
    • I know I'm in the minority, for sure. I'm slowly edging towards vegetarianism though to be fair. Well, pescetarianism at least.set
    • A vegan client pulled out a tuna sandwich mid-way through a session the other week. I held my tongue, but asked him to eat it on the other side of the studio.detritus
    • set just don't eat this stuff. I also made this mistake once in my life :) (i had no clue or whatever what i was ordering)sted
    • So he tells people he's vegan but eats tuna..?set
    • *shrugs* I know. I've had long chats with him about the meat industry and leathers, vs. the synthetic leathers he uses. I didn't know what to say, so didn't.detritus
    • ..and I'm someone who can't fucking stand fish, especially rancid-death-smellin... tinned tuna vom.detritus
    • fish are such cool creatures, can't imagine why vegetarians make exceptions with themscarabin
    • gf makes aglio olio e peperoncino (spaghetti with garlic and chilly) with tuna oil, without any meat and it's fucking amazing. she is a vegan, never asked hersted
    • about how she feels about the fishes killed for that oil :Dsted
    • ^ that's probably one of my favourite meals, sted. Although I've never tried it with tuna oil. sometimes i toss in anchovies.Gnash
    • She's not vegan then is sheset
    • Cry babyHayoth
    • It's a big tough manly beef eaterset
    • ahahaah :)sted
    • Gaucho is a wonderful Steely Dan album, and well cooked steak is delicious. But hey, if you don't dig, that's cool.stoplying
    • A well done steak is an overlooked steak. It won't have any of the flavor or texture that makes a steak any good.monospaced

    I'm really into quinoa these days.

    • she's really into you too.microkorg
    • Is this a confession or just a completely irrelevant thing to share?CyBrainX
    • Yea but do you pronounce it properly or like a cunt?set

    I don't know what QBN means ... I think it's something like Q... B... Network...
    In fact I even don't know what QBN is.
    I don't know who you are, people.

    I think Picasso was shit.

    • what all of it? surely not.fadein11
    • lol why surely not? You consistently find it difficult to fathom the possibility of people having different opinions to you, don't you. I don't enjoy any of itset
    • jesus - what the fuck are you on about? You are so up for an argument all the time. I was having a discussion and happy for you to dislike him - why would Ifadein11
    • give a shit! I just meant Picasso did so much work in so many different styles I find it amazng you think it is all shit. Calm the fuck down and have afadein11
    • discussion without throwing your toys out the pram - that is what this site is for - creative discussion no?fadein11
    • Haha. Have you too many toys in your pram again Set? What is it you hate about Picasso so much?Ianbolton
    • He doesn't like the mans work. Relax.monospaced
    • yeah I don't care if he likes or dislikes him tbh - was just starting a discussion and as usual it goes wrong on here lol.fadein11
    • lol at you lot. I'm perfectly calm, thanks.set
    • "You consistently find it difficult to fathom the possibility of people having different opinions to you" - weird response to a discussion. But yes you arefadein11
    • right I will NEVER agree with a Trump supporter. That is true.fadein11
    • I witness constantly fadein being visibly astounded that people don't have the same opinion as him. I found it amusing, so I mentioned it.set
    • That and he's so easy to get going. Look at all those notes hahaset
    • 5?fadein11
    • "so easy to get going" good you are aware you are a troll anyway.fadein11

    • I like Picasso but don't think he's a 'genius'. I hate Jackson Pollock and every cunt who had a print on their wall at university.HAYZ1LLLA

    • I respect the guy and understand he lead 'a' way, but I don't like his work. If any of it was posted on qbn today as new work it'd get downvotes. It's shit.set
    • "lol why surely not? You consistently find it difficult to fathom the possibility of people having different opinions to you, don't you" from set of all people!detritus
    • I knew you'd say. People always have a different opinion to mine, always. I'm rarely astonished by that. Though happy to criticise them for it. Get it rightset
    • Knew you'd say that *set
    • We're all the same dick, saying the same dick things to the other dicks, thinking they're more dicks than we're dicks.detritus
