General O/T Chit Chat Thread

[Jam]

I went back and read the first 40 odd pages of this thread. It was so fun! And @penelopepitstop was such a major part of it, in his many iterations. And I mean MANY. Good grief! He got thrown off this forum more times than I've had toasT!

I wish him the very best in life. I like him; not his early hours persona, certainly, which I always miss for one reason or another, but how he is when he's just jiving in the music thread or like he was early in this thread. I really wish he'd relax. He can be so funny and so insightful when he's not raging about someone who he thinks has belittled him in some way. He'll always be my forum friend. He's earned my kindness and he's always been kind to me. I'm so very sorry he has upset so many people. I can't excuse him, but I'll always be there for him, in my peculiar cyber way.

Thanks for that Hooley. I missed your post, sorry if I appeared rude, but I genuinely didn't see it.

I had an even better night last night because it was my last night shift for a month!

YaHooOOOoOoOoOoOoOo!

Yay for you, to be off nights. I on the other hand miss then enormously.

His posts in the hostages thread almost made me feel physically sick. Enough is enough.

i think the posts were deleted. I had to put "it" on ignore during the night as i was too upset to read the stuff "it" was posting. but am sure others were quoting and replying but can't see those posts. It wasn't the thread and the time to post attacks on others.

I notice early this morning he tried to turn the Hostages thread into another hate speil saying that I called both Jake and Lucas "pooftas'. I would never be so disrespectful to turn a thread like that into yet another Pene sledging match but I just want to say I can swear on my sons life that I have never ever said anything of the sort.

This whole situation is super upsetting and I just want it to stop.

Notice that he's vanished after you commented and had back up?

Sad thing is, I had come to really like him too.
The whole thing is pretty upsetting.

So I thought "shit it's 10pm, I'd better pack" ahead of my trip tomorrow, so I dig out my suitcase and it was at least half full with stuff from my US trip earlier in the year. My New Years resolution should be something along the line of getting my shit together I think.

 

[Sweetgeek]

I think I need a new project. This is the first time I don't have an assessment of some sort to do, or have work commitments, planning for some event, caught up on some show... It's the first time in a long time I don't know what to do with myself in all honesty. I was thinking maybe I could paint the staircase. I am no fan of the raw wood look. Not sure how I would go about this, but bunnings hold workshops and maybe I could go to a few of the these and get some ideas. I think I will look into this tomorrow

I'm curious what were Pen's other 'iterations'? Pen has claimed to have been around the pre Ch 9 era but he/she (same posters refer to Pen as a he ) never did get around to confiding what his other username was in the past or I maybe I just missed it when he did.

You did not pack yet?! And you still haven't emptied out your suitcase from last trip?! I don't know what to say about all of this. I'm not even on the other spectrum of you, because I am a disorganised person when it comes to these things, but even for me this is crazy lol. I suppose you could just buy what you need while on holiday. Assuming it is a holiday that is

Thanks. I'm escaping the drudgery of Christmas in Sydney and going to Vanuatu and Noumea, I'm back just before NYE.

I think I will outsource unpacking when I get home, I do have the bad habit of continuing to live out of a suitcase long after a trip ends. I shall aim to be completely unpacked by 2015.

He has done a couple but I am guessing you mean Battlescars with Lupe Fiasco.

He has done another one with Lupe on his latest album. The song is called Linger.

The last minute assignment overload never gets old lol. Try not to burn yourself out in the final days though.

Gurl, you have no idea. I just can never seem to get on top of things, this suitcase thing seems to be a good allegory for my life.

I remember once I tried to be organised and I made a list and packed 2 were in advance, but then I kept needing things from my luggage so basically unpacked in that time and had to start over. I'm a very last minute person, this fits.

 

[Sweetgeek]

Sounds awesome @jessy_girl. Enjoy every moment x

 

[jessy_girl]

Thanks Yep leaving tomorrow. I have to be honest I'm not overwhelmed with excitement, but I know that I will enjoy myself regardless.

Have you been there before? Go out and spend some time with locals in the little villages for an authentic experience.
