Gibberings CLXXXIX - Squirrel Nut Zippers, the Albert Hall and going cookerless

[Sammy G]

Well I'm not cleaning up. That's all.

 

[Chatative]

And finally, monsieur, a wafer-thin mint? :D

 

[F.U.B.A.R.]

Shouldn't that be 'waffer'?

Evening, Bluelighters!

Evening evey!

Evening! Out of lorazepam again, but I have 150mg pregabalins and, er, 5mg Libriums. Eh, I'll get by.

Got a couple new revision books in the post. More reminders that exam time is coming close. I have until the end of the week to finish off a couple sciences assignments and I'm terrified. Hope I can pull myself together in time. Somehow I don't see university on the horizon any more.

 

[Sammy G]

Just keep yourself together, do your best in the exams and university can always wait a while. What's important is keeping you well in the here-and-now. I know with all the pressure that's maybe difficult to focus on, but you must.

 

[gardenlane]

You can do it, Kota!

 

[Kota]

Thanks for the words of encouragement. If I don't make it into pharmacology, I'm going to try for journalism.

I feel like I'm missing something, somewhere... but that's not unusual.

I'm sure theer are lots of things I never had in the first place

 

[Sammy G]

I reckon you'd do that well, Kota. Though it's a crime to sell out good writing to journalism, it has its own appeal.

You'll be fine. As long as you remember to focus on staying safe.

 

[Eveleivibe]

Ugh I feel really dehydrated.... thought I'd drank plenty of water today. Bed in a bit....

Those feels.

Out of curiosity why's this forum called Bluelight? It's a lovely name n all but why?

I think it's after the darklights shone on blotters as a quick substance test. Just guessing, though.

 

[Sammy G]

There's a link to the story, which I'm sure a mod can find. It's not that exciting. At all.

 

[Eveleivibe]

Yea I did read the story a lonnnnnnnnnnnng time ago, but I've slept since then n forgotten if they mentioned why. It said summit about an ecstasy site. Oh that reminds me, mods tut tut you really need to edit the forum rules as it still says ecstasy site

Out of curiosity why's this forum called Bluelight?

Nee-naw, nee-naw.

That was always my assumption anyway. As I recall, there are several conflicting versions of the naming of this site. Perhaps to add an element of mystique, perhaps cos it's a forum run by drug users so specific memories may be a tad hazy in some instances

 

[Don Luigi]

I hear the founder's name was Bluel. He just wanted to make sure everybody knew so it was ''Bluel, 'ight?''
