  • My other half’s mam fuckin’ loves Candy Crush, plays it most (if not every) night, maybe clears a level or two.

    What really makes me smile is that whenever she drops a bollock and effectively renders a grid unwinnable, she’ll take the L and come back tomorrow. Fuck the MTX and fuck the extra time/re-rolls/level skips; she just goes back the following day and tries again.

    Mad respect, if nothing else than to be the marginal player base that fucks with the “line goes up” metric.










  • Thank you, friend. It’s lovely to have such a positive reply.

    I’d recommend it to anyone - education is never wasted. This is the end of year five or six now mind and I’ve had a bit of a titsful of it - the summer break has come at a perfect time. I’ll smash this last year in then give it a rest I think, maybe formalise my French over a year or two.




  • I abandoned my plan to go into software development by means of university, left secondary school and took up employment in a different field.

    After a bit of lateral movement and promotion to a job that was more desk-oriented, I’m doing a computing degree part time, and I actually really enjoy it.

    I’m doing it for fun, because I enjoy the subject - I’ve got no plans to use it and there’s no job pinned on the hopes of passing. It’s wonderfully liberating.

    That said, I appreciate I’m in a privileged position to be able to do what I’m doing.
