I should have been working on the EXP update right now but that is not possible until further notice. Sad face for me.
Listening to:
Angra - Angels Cry

You have my autobiography?
I'd rather rely on these agencies to give me a job at random, even if it's temporary. I've done enough voluntary work in the past. I expect to be paid for what I do and I'll no longer do anything for others for free.And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the problem with the country today. If I said that, I'd not have a cricket team to play for, because no-one would get 11 players out for the team every Sunday. If my dad and the other three blokes who make the pitch up for us said that, we wouldn't have a pitch to play on. If our youth coaches said that, we wouldn't have a promising group of kids coming through to play for us, giving our club a future. We're having fun, yet we're giving something back
At least you're getting something from it. For those shitty volunteer placements I had, it gave me absolutely nothing and doing 100 hours of it means fuck all to employers.

That's another band I've been considering getting into.Well, I only have the "Brothers in Arms" album and a few songs here and there from other albums (like "Sultans of Swing"). But I'm not really interested in getting more from them in the near future. Even though you have to give credit to Mark Knopfler for his guitar playing.
My parents might only have the compilation albums but I suppose it's better than nothing.
I could understand if it's vinyl but this is CD we're talking about; something that's so damn easy to copy. I really should ask for Amazon vouchers over HMV gift cards for future birthday/Christmas present ideas.Sadly I don't have a way to play back vinyl, so that's why I have to buy CDs. ^^
Yep, CDs for me. I have the turntable in the conservatory but it's very rarely it would actually be used. I only got Unholy Cadaver on vinyl because the release was CD+2LP exclusive. It was that or buy the album from Amazon MP3.
But yeah, it's not like it takes forever to produce a CD and it's not like it would cost very much to produce a CD. So why are they so damn expensive? Especially when you think about what you actually get: A CD with the music on it, and IF you are lucky the lyrics in the booklet. Speaking of the booklet: Sometimes it's just a simple booklet with the cover on it and maybe the lyrics. But nothing else. At least in the metal genre, most bands have some nicely styled booklets...
Yeah, I have come across some iffy booklets in the past. That wouldn't determine whether it was worth buying the CD or not but I'd sure as hell be disappointed if I had to pay £15 on one album and they didn't have the courtesy to make a nice booklet to go along with it.
BTW, how did we have a debate about music videos without even mentioning Immortal?
And my furry friend only knows a handful of them. This can't be good.I guess it's easier to be a straight male human being in this world.
And this is why dragons are generally angry. :P
Oh my god, why do I have to think about "I AM FED UP WITH THIS WORLD!" right now? >_>
Everybody betrayed me, I'm fed up with this world.
