I've been cutting back. But the festive period was no good for me. SO. MANY. GAMES.

I wasn't too bad, one of my accumlators came through so I out just about on top but I think I'd rather just enjoy Saturday football then fretting about my bets this year
 

Ushojax

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
Their rivalry is quite powerful. It will live on for a while I believe.

Ronaldo looks like Clint Eastwood. Messi like a deflated Gerard Depardieu.

Liverpool could easily take 18 teams in La Liga. Shit league. Lets have none of this Ligue 1 nonsense.

I just ran this experiment in Football Manager 2012, Liverpool finished 3rd, 1 point above Malaga. Incidentally, the team that I swapped them with, Granada, finished 16th in the Premier Division.
 
This shit is getting ridiculous. Vercauteren has been fired two months after getting the job. We should never have signed him in the first place, he was the worst coach we ever had and it felt like he didn´t give a crap if we lose. He was laughing when referee ended the game on Saturday while the team looked depressed about the result.
 
As expected, Jesualdo Ferreira is taking over Vercauteren´s place. 4 managers in a season, that must be some kind of record and there´s still a few months before the season ends.

Silva has took some of the City players on holiday to his native Gran Canaria. Now you'd think he'd take Aguero, Tevez or Garcia.

But no! Hart, JM7 and Barry.

/useless information.

Have you guys heard of the #cutforbieber 4Chan troll yet? It kinda makes me sick. Crazy internet.

I presume it's all fake btw
 
There is a definite case for Marcelo being te best left back of 2012, yeah. He has no problem with Alves and Piqué, but does for Marcelo? Nonsense. His only real competition has been Alba and Chiellini, whereas Alves, Piqué and arguably Xavi (good at the Euros though) shouldn't even be there.

Buffon

Lahm
Ramos
Chiellini
Marcelo

Pirlo
Vidal
Iniesta

Ronaldo
Messi
RVP

would be mine. Honourable mentions to Pepe, Alba, Barzagli, Hummels, Kompany, Marchisio, Busquets, Alonso, Reus, Ribery, Falcao and Ibra.

I've always felt that the Ballon D'or has had a La Liga bias. It was miracle Ronaldo won it when he was with us.

I like your team but I think Ashley Cole deserves a mention as well. He was class for Chelsea and won multiple trophies in the year.

Twitter searched it and looks like it's gone further than just a troll

Yeah. And I might need to reconsider what I said in the spoiler. Further research told me that most of these pictures are on real Twitter accounts. Not just some phony accounts with ten tweets or so. Not sure what to think of this.

I have a written Java exam tomorrow. I hate having to write code. Give me a computer!

One of those on Thursday. It's a bit weird, alright. We're allowed to do it in pseudocode instead, if we want.

But first I have Computer Architecture tomorrow. Going to be bad.

We aren't allowed pseudocode, just straight up Java.

I have architecture on Thursday as it goes.
 
I remeber a FootyGAFFER talking about the Metro 2033 novel. I'm reading through it right now, chapter 5 or so, and it is pretty cool. They announced on Facebook that the English translation of Metro 2034 will release in February. Nifty
 
I've got the Geographies of Social Movements and Social Conflict on Friday, yeah, suck on that.

I need to fucking revise soon.
I've been revising Computer Architecture loads but completely overlooked Java.

Written exam is balls because you take the computer for granted. When you're plugging it in on the computer it's constantly popping up the next possible piece of code, so if you forget something, there's often a list of stuff to choose from to jog the old memory. No such luck with pen and paper. Ugh!

Have to read this book. Sounds good.

Wait... people are cutting their wrists because Bieber is a smoker?

Am I getting this right?

Yep. It's quite similar to a previous troll where girls cut their hair in support for Bieber who was supposed to have cancer. Search for #baldforbieber.

How do you find architecture? I find remembering all the different circuit design stuff pretty difficult.

Also I'm slowly realising that my policy of never really studying, that served me pretty well in secondary school, is a lot less reliable in college.
