  1. So I was drinking over at my friends, getting ready to go out and we were having a bit of a laugh at my mates expense which he wasn't too happy about, this resulted in him elbowing me in the face and smashing in my 2 front teeth.

    I've been to the dentist and apparently it will take about 4 weeks to get it fixed during which time I can't bite anything, can't smile in public without feeling a bit self conscious etc. Let me just say that we really do take everything for granted.

      Why? It's his fault for elbowing you.

      I think he's referring to having functioning teeth. As a fellow sufferer of toothache and bad dentistry I can feel the pain.

      Elbows to the face usually suck, yes. On the bright side, your nose could have been easily broken which would be more painful.

      Friendly neighborhood warning: don't get hooked on the pain pills they give you. There will be a lot of them.

      As someone with two broken molars, I almost literally feel your pain.

  2. I went into hospital on Sunday since I had trouble breathing properly - was short of breath, turns out I have Pneumothroax. They stick a great big needle into my chest to syringe out the air and that was not pleasant, the needle was in my chest for about 5-10 minutes. When that didn't work they put in a chest drain which gets pretty incomfortable from time to time, its still in now. Don't know when I'll get out but on the plus side I finally watched Lawrence of Arabia and am playing through Doom 3 again.

    All of the interesting people who were in my ward on monday have now been moved away and the man opposite me now is the illest looking man I have ever seen

      That sucks. I had traumatic pneumothorax in both lungs from cliff jumping this summer, and although it was only a moderate case, it sure as hell didn't feel moderate. I sympathize.

      Get well soon!

      I had primary spontaneous pneumothorax when I was 18. Was in the hospital for three weeks and had to have surgery. Good luck with a swift recovery.

      Ow, sorry to hear it. Hope things start to look better for you soon!

  3. I was in bed the other night and it suddenly hit me that I, and everyone else will die and that after death there may possibly be nothing, i.e. I will no longer exist and this thought I fills me with a sense of overpowering dread. I like to think that I believe in God but even so I have spent a few days feeling depressed that everything will end and after that there will be nothing, I want my conciousness to remain for eternity, has anyone else felt like this? Whenever I probe too far down this road of thought I start to panic and the worst part is that there is nothing I can do about it, even if I did live forever the universe would eventually end.

    Yes I know its christmas sorry for these dark thoughts.

      Phillip Larkin wrote a poem called 'Aubade' about this feeling: http://www.poetryfoundation.org/poem/178058

      There isn't really an answer, other than to try and put it out of your mind and get on with life.

      THE SECRETS OUT

  4. So I was working in our council's library a few weeks ago and got bored so i decided to pick up a book to read since I had like 10 minutes to kill.

    I picked up this book called leviathan wakes becase the title on the spine looked star warsish and the blurb sounded interesting as well as having a cool front cover. I have to say that I am very much enjoying it (still haven't finished, don't ruin the ending for me) and have found it the most gripping book that I have read in a long time - I could easily have spent all my time at work reading it.

    Its set in the future when humans have colonized the solar system and follows the eventful lives of 2 characters, read all about it here

    I would reccomend it, though its probably not for everyone (like most things) anyone else read it?

  5. Today's my 18th Birthday (born 1993 same year as Doom was released) but its also been a year since I joined the Doomworld forums (a year and 7 days to be more accurate) which is hard to believe since it feels like a few months at most, I guess I need to try harder since I havent even reached "member" status yet and posting in the blogs will get me nowhere as I dont think it counts towards one's total postcount.

      Happy Birthday! Time flies when you're baking in the warm and friendly presence of your friends at Doomworld. Or playing Star Fox.

      Yay! Happy Birthday!

      (I'm happy when it's someone ELSE's birthday.)

    A decent map, bit easy and the layout is a bit all over the place but a solid effort so 3/5

    Certain Death

    While it is let down somewhat by the short length there is no denying the quality of these two levels and one can't help but wonder what heights a full episode would have yielded

    Hot Spot

    Visually this map is quite nice but there are no difficulty settings and the gameplay is very easy with the only enemies being zombies, imps and pinky demons, you can breeze through it in under 10 minutes

    Lost Way

    Played on HYNTR, was a visually attractive, entertaining level, quite good for a day 4/5

    Gravity

    a nice, pleasant dooming experience that allowed me to admire some very nice designs against a peaceful backdrop of blue skies and green hills, just don't expect to be challenged too much by the gameplay.

    Industrial Estate

    enjoyable, with the right amount of challenge and a pointless secret at the end. 4/5
