Gibberings CLXIII - Up All Night Shooting Cheese Balls

We do soo need a 'dumping ground zero' thread. Alot of people seem to be having problems in that area and none of us seem to shy about talking shit soooooo.

MDB I suffered with chronic I.B.S for years..not that I am suggesting that is your woe Dulcolax and dulco ease and senokot etc...syrup of figs anyone? All have there place (can unfortunately take you a bit too far the other way) but I swear by by Fibergel..even once a day..I think it says 4 sachets for umm serious impaction. I genuinly like the taste too particularly of the lemon one. Recently found you can buy in bulk on Amazon too..well worth it.

:D
 
I think i recently threw out some boxes of Fibre Gel as they were about 12 years past the 'use buy' date. :\ Ive found that thinks like Senokot and All Bran just greatly increase the discomfort without actually easing anything up. Milk of Magnesia truly works on me, but in bad cases i need to take the maximum dose for 3 successive nights. I will have to be stopping kratom again soon anyway, so thankfully at least this shouldnt be a long term and permanent issue. Not tried syrup of figs, but i do have some in my 'medicine cabinet' so may try that along with M of M for quicker results. Though hopefully not too quick ! :o

Yeah I've had mild IBS-D for months now. It had just cleared up, then I got ill, started eating ready meals & takeouts because I wasn't up to cooking & it's back now.

I can't eat too much fat (mostly just takeouts or eggs) or anything remotely spicy. Even things that don't taste spicy to me give me problems.

How about taking a stimulant? Had a fabulous shit this morning (be jealous), took a ritalin a couple hours later and now I need another.

Maybe coffee will do it for ya.

Mm, I was wondering if we had a bowel movements thread.. largely as I'm often eating when I read this stuff. :¦

We genuinely did but I do believe it got closed on grounds of being a shit thread. There was perhaps some confusion over what constitutes a shit thread in this particular instance. There has been an unusually large volume of discussion of such matters of late. Seems a number of people have number twos on their mind recently. I can see how it could be a topic that others may not wish to have their noses rubbed in so I could see grounds for an actual shit thread being allowed to stay open if people really do wish to discuss such things as frequently as they have been. It's better to have a thread go to shit than an entire forum.
 
If we had a bowel movements thread I'd be the top poster for sure.

Ulcerative Colitis sufferer for a few years (without proper diagnosis), it finally took my colon from me in October 2012. Had an Ileostomy for a year or so and since then have had an internal "j-pouch", which required about 7 hours of surgery over 2 ops. Much smaller than a colon so the best you're ever going to get is about 6 bowel movements a day. They fucked mine up a bit and left too much rectum behind which I can still get colitis in, the severity of which has hospitalised me twice so far this year and means that at best I have 10-15 bowel movements a day, the majority of which are quite painful due to having to navigate a short section of ulcers, inflammation and fissures.

Might have to revert back to the Ileostomy if I can't get it under control with steroids and diet, which to be fair would be alright, I was healthy and happy with the bag when I had it last year.

Anyway, I'ma stop whinging now, that belongs in the pain thread.
 
Tbf you do have a lot to whinge about, though you do have a 'dream job' which might be some consolation, as at least you dont have to suffer a shit job on top of everything else. Your job is every computer geeks school boys or girls dream i would have thought.

Do you get spend lots of time getting paid to 'test' the games, or is it all entering pages and pages of machine code? (dont even know what the up to date terminology is. :o)
 
God no, being a tester (we call them QA) is about as shitty a job as you can get in the games industry. You don't really play the game in that job so much as get assigned tasks such as "spend 3 days trying to find holes in the collision detection in this level by repeatedly jumping against the walls".

Coders don't do much machine code work in the games industry any more either (for shame? I dunno), they leave that to the driver developers and work within much higher level frameworks.

Me, I'm just a 3D artist, use packages like 3DS Max and Maya to make 3D models of stuff and photoshop to texture them, which a few more obscure bits of software to do more specialised stuff to make it all work in games. I tend to make stuff to spec either from concept art or style guides, so I'm not even really being truly creative (have to be a good traditional artist for that haha!). I'm really just a machine, churning out 3D stuff all day, but it is rewarding to see your work on the shelves and your name in the credits, so yeah, it could be worse! :)
 
I used to spend hours copying machine code text from a games book into a commodore 64 in my early teens. Not one of the bastard things ever worked, and i was being very carefull with attention to detail. I guess the tiniest ommison, typo, or any other human error was all it needed to screw it up. I dont know if anyone ever got one of those programs to work, there werent forums to discuss things in those days. I once spent whole afternoons entering code, just to get a balloon to float across the screen. Looking back now i wonder what possesed me to go to all that trouble for such small results. 8(
 
Haha, me too. Usually the problem was that they'd printed the damn code with an error in it. Still, figuring out what was going wrong was probably what got me interested enough in computers to end up where I am today.
 
I recall one of those endless pages of machine code games working on my lil rubber-keyed 48k Speccy many years ago. It was only the one though. And it was crap. Definitely some satisfaction in having spent quite so many hours typing in bastard hex code and actually having it work though. Perhaps more shocked disbelief than satisfaction.

This is actually much like the way I play games anyway. I have unnatural urges to go an look at stuff that it's fairly obvious nobody ever intended to be looked at and to generally wander about aimlessly doing things which are utterly irrelevant to gameplay. Some game designers seem to take such weirdo behaviour into account and include stuff you only see if you do really bizarre, pointless stuff. I think it was one of the Prince of Persia games on PS2 I got quite into during a period of extensive ketamine use and ended up finding all kindsa lil animations and snippets that you'd never see if you played the game "properly".

Perhaps there is potential for combining "quirky" crapness at gaming with being paid for it. Then again, the ketamine might be frowned upon in an office setting...
 
I don't think I could get away with it, but QA might be able to have a bit of ket on the go, as I think they interact with each other less, separate booths and bug tracking software for comms ;)

We love to put little easter eggs into games that are hard to find or only the dedicated will see, but I think that sort of thing was more prevalent during the Prince of Persia era when it didn't take a team of 200 people working 70 hour weeks just to get a game out on time, the amount of resources required to get the same end result has changed massively (for the worse, with each console generation, IMO) so all my time is spent doing the bare minimum, with less time for embellishment.

Suuup, gl with the meeting - what's it for?
Click to expand...

Thanks m8. My future, a place I should live and get help with my diagnosis (borderline perssonality disorder, ocd, adhd, anxiety/paranoia and now voices too) + help with getting out of drugs etc. Did not get an answer today, but they say they will find a place that match me. And them there aint many of here in Denmark. Should be a place that if I fall into drugs etc I still live there and get help and not get thrashed like the other places I have been to.

Took them a fuckin year to say they would help me, fighted my ass off for this. Going to have to wait very long time till they find a place for sure too.. Fuckin crap system we have.

Had some Chinese for lunch, been swearing at the EA servers all day, I deleted my entire porn collection on my tablet just to make space for FIFA14 and then I find out the servers are unstable as fuck. Doesn't memorize the games you play, so you have to play them over and over in the hope the servers unfuck themselves, while having to renew player's contracts. John Terry is costing me a fortune, yet with him, Caceres and Collocini I have a great defense.

Forwards I have Diego Costa, Immobile and Chamachk, who is actually playing well. Plus Damiao.

Shame you can't play others yet on the Android servers.

A few diclaz down and the pyraz, I took a bit of a break, now I can take a couple and feel them, all good. Took a walk before. Procrastinated on my job applications.
 
Fucking 'ell.

I just got myself a 1L bottle of Russian Standard.
They had this shit for £15 (£5 off) at Sainsburys, couldnt resist.
Gonna be a wild weekend, especially with all the 4-FA and Etizolam I got left over.
 
How much 4-FA you got left? cider and vodka for me at the mo... then party time
