Hello folks, I should explain. The past few weeks our internet connection has been utterly crippled, meaning almost any attempt to do anything more complicated than stare longingly at Google was ultimately doomed to failure. However, yesterday the nice man from Virgin came along and hooked us up to a shiny new fibreoptic connection, so The Nerdcave is currently wired for... Read More
Hello. Have you just had your application to SGUK denied? Please read this first.
First of all, do not be alarmed. This is something I do periodically to clear out the applications list and, paradoxically, try to make it easier for people to get in. The site's quietening down a bit in recent months and the applications list is getting so large and unwieldy that... Read More
I've tried three times to update this damn thing, but every time what I want to write sounds stupid and self-indulgent, so fuck it, let's just update just to update. Have some musics:
I'm going to be incredibly self-indulgent and navel-gazey for a bit. I do hope you don't mind. You see the thing is I have this relationship. It's long-standing, it's shaped the man I am today, from my sense of humour to my morality, to my job. It's touched me deeply and it's tinged with bittersweetness. And it's with a man I've never met and who... Read More
lol, of course its rincewind. Fetlife does not appear to have very good privacy settings, I'm a bit concerned. Also, I'm worried that now I know he's there I'll stalk his profile because im nosy and it'll be really bad for me.
Well concerning the last entry, stuff happened, it was all a bit weird and unpleasant and plans got thrown off track for a bit, but all is well now and things are starting to chug back along nicely.
In slightly more entertaining news, work's been a bit mental recently. As you can imagine, working in a library at half-term is a bit of a nightmare,... Read More
After a conversation with a good friend and a bit of self-reflection, I've come to the conclusion that the past few months I've really just been coasting through life. I've bitched about things but only to the extent that doing that has let me stop caring about them, and I've fallen into familiar and easy patterns of behaviour just because they're familiar and easy. My... Read More
Christ, it's been so long since I updated properly that I can feel the events of the past fe months hanging over me like a cloud. I'll have to take the coward's way out and bullet-point them.
* I'm currently on holiday. This is awesome and much needed. In a minute Secretary and I are going to pop out to see an exhibit about the... Read More
Question: If your cousin keeps spamming her boyfriend's band on your Facebook, is there a subtle way to either get her to stop or let her know that you think his band is about as exciting as drowning in Chloroform without causing a major family incident?
Last weekend I did something that I've just realised I haven't done for some time actually, I went off on a little adventure for an SGUK meet. Yes, I headed up to the exotic foreign climes of... erm... Leeds. Well, you can't... Read More
Just thought I'd give you all a heads-up, a close personal friend of mine TheQuestpants, has joined the site! This guy's meant a lot to me over the years, so go ahead and say hello!
