View Full Version : It's Work-Free-Friday!

It's the first working week of the year, we're all knackered, and with today being the last day of a four day week, it is the ideal time for some quality slacking off.

Let me explain. We can make the safe assumption that you are going to slack off at least one day this year. No arguments there. We are obviously out to get the maximum amount of quality slacking per day slacked. When considering slacking today you have to remember that being a four day week you will in fact actually be getting one quarter of a slack week, as opposed to a normal fifth.

Think about it, that's a whole extra twentieth of a week of extra slacking at no additional cost to you! Given an average 40 hour working week that's a whole two hours of extra free time you can get yourself!

More to the point, we are now in the build up for the festival of Winter-een-mas (http://www.wintereenmas.com/) as pioneered by the webcomic Ctrl+Alt+Del (http://www.ctrlaltdel-online.com/comic.php). It's the holiday season for gamers, all about gaming. What's not to like. :)

Have I persuaded you yet? I'm warning you, if you don't slack off soon, countless kittens could die... (http://kittenwar.com/)

...and if none of that garbage convinces you, I will be forced to use extreme measures: The Big Green Diamond of Control.

Happy Friday, feel free to add more irrelevant, pointless but preferably funny links to this thread.

Hmm, why is this showing up on the MPUK front page as "Work-Free-Frida"? Who knows, maybe the server is getting into the spirit of things too. :)

In other news, rejoice and be merry for today is MAJOR LESBO's birthday! (http://forums.multiplay.co.uk/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&userid=8204)
Her (?) zero posts have enriched all our lives, I'm sure you'll agree, and we are all better people for knowing her (?). :p

WINTEREEENMAS!!!!!!!!!!!

Ryvita

Finally, someone actually notices what the thread's about... :)

Thank you, and a happy Wintereenmas to you!

I began celebrations on sunday by installing, playing, finishing (by transcending) then uninstalling, Alpha Centauri. 'Twas good. When next I have some free hours spare, I shall be reinstalling and completing Warhammer 40k. :)

Tim Buckley is a cockfag. Discuss.

Ryvita

Fine, if you say so, but he is at least a cockfag (how does that get past the Censor?) with a good idea.

It's cold, it's dark, lets stay in a and play games... :)

His take on the life of a gamer, albeit a predominantly console based gamer since the incident with the drunken watercooling attempt and the appearance of Zeke, has strange parallels with a lot of peoples' experiences on this forum. Personally I find his understanding of the gamer and girlfriend situation particularly spooky.

Wintereenmas is a superb concept, what else are you going to do on these long winter nights other than get drunk and play more games than is healthy for you?
