Branding Job Cost? Nov 16, 07, 5:45 a.m.

Identity work for a single chi-chi bakery patisserie joint in London, probably doable over a couple of days.

Friend of a friend of a friend kind of thing, so I don't want to overcharge, but I do want the job because it's outside the usual kind of thing I do. They're not close enough for me to undercharge, either.

I'm, I guess - of mid-level - competence?

House Abuse Jul 21, 08, 11:31 a.m.

One of my best chums is going to Italy with his bord for a few days and has left me with his house keys so I can pop 'round and water his plants*.

In the vein of office pranks involving silver-foiling everything in a cubicle, what can I do to make his return home more memorable than his crappy holiday?

Actually, the silver foil example was crap - I'll only want to spend a minimum of time abusing his house/trust/sense of privacy - what pranks can I pull with 15 minutes of effort?

1) Shit in the fridge.
2) Don't water the plants... ha ha ha!

* yes, I am that old.

NT & Soft porn? Oct 22, 07, 8:27 a.m.

A question for the few women that are still on this site..

Do you have any opinions on the frequent posting of porn images and links by some of the male ..er.. members of this site?

Does it have a positive or negative impact? Does it affect the frequency of your visits and your involvement?

Thanks!

We've hit peak oil? Feb 25, 08, 4:04 p.m.

Irrespective of a slight bump in production this year (due, apparently, to the completion of a couple of 'mega projects'), it would appear we're well into the oil plateau, also known as "peak oil", also known as "after this, we're fucked".

Not sure where that "20 years from now.." went.

Something to think about next time you get into your car or step onto a plane, eh?

Symbol Crit/Input? Oct 19, 07, 7:18 a.m.

First thing - what does it represent? If you can work it out, which one works 'best' for you?

It's going to end up quite small, (hence wee preview) so please take bottom size in to consideration. Sadly, it doesn't translate to wee very ably at 72dpi, but hopefully you can get the idea.

Thanks!

Cretinous n00bs & pseuds Feb 1, 08, 8:06 a.m.

You know who you are.

You're dull and your presence is no longer required. Please, either modify your behaviour or better yet, just go away.

Perhaps the Fark or nChan forums are more appropriate venues for your kind?

NT & spam harvesting? Oct 29, 07, 8:05 a.m.

Does anyone else here have a unique email address for NT which is receiving spam?

I set up a detritus@ account mere weeks ago, it's only used here and I'm already receiving loads of spam on it - anyone else have this problem?

(Just to clarify - this is NOT spam from NT/QBN, but spam from twats offering shares, 'opportunities' to invest in the rebuilding of iraq and v1agra etc).

I'm less than chuffed.

Inspiration of the day Aug 4, 08, 5:17 a.m.

Please share in here examples of the fruits of your daily internet trawling - one, or perhaps a couple of images each day from fields relevant to the original spirit of QBN.

Please, no..
..funny ha ha pictures
..scrapings from Reddit/Digg/[insert alternate link aggregator here]
..beguiling anthropomorphic forms / soft porn / porn / scat

There are other threads for that ( http://www.qbn.com/topics/441052… )

Please, yes..
..design
..art / photography
..architecture
..lifestyle
..that kind of thing.

If you find a treasure trove of images somewhere, then please post one or two of the best examples, then add a link - please, no flooding. This isn't competition to post the most - take it as an opportunity to edit out the superfluous.

Thankyou!

Smart Drugs? Jun 10, 08, 5:26 a.m.

I'm curious to know whether anyone here has ever tried so-called smart drugs for the occasional (or, perhaps, constant) upping of their game?

I've read a couple of articles that hint that scientists, soldiers, lawyers and students (the common socio groups mentioned when a drug sub-culture tries to justify its existence - all we need now are judges and policemen...) across the West have been selectively dosing up on things like Provigil, Prozac or Adderall during exam tests or periods of work pressure, so was wondering whether people in the more creative fields were doing the same? I mean, we all know that old school lifestyle drugs are rife, and there's more than one CD out there tenuously keeping his edge on coke, but we all know that's not a smart path to take for any amount of time*.

As I'm likely never going to touch amphetamines again, I was wondering whether one of these more legitimate pharma options could usefully be employed during those strenuous deadline times when a few extra hours focus here or there could make all the difference.

Anyone chime in?

(and, sadly, I'm not really interested in tales of people boshing ecstasy, speed, acid, coke or totting pot - there've been enough threads on that sort of thing).

* Actually, I wouldn't want to suggest that pharma drugs are a long-term option, but .. well, mutter.
