Does anyone still care about Creative Review?
- Has the odd interesting feature online but haven't bought a printed copy for yearsfadein11
- Last copy I bought was when I, and others, was quoted for something from here/NT. Fuck, I can't even recall what that was now!detritus
- I was thinking about a subscription until I saw the 'new' price!Raniator
- I think the last time I bought a print copy was in 2011 or 12.Continuity

Just came back from a quick trip to Miami for the weekend.
It was short, I had fun, the city is pretty, the food is good, people are beautiful.....but fucking rude, and tasteless, tacky mofos.
It's too expensive for what it is. There is no free parking, anywhere. And there's a line everywhere you want to go.I would never move there.
- It would be so basic if it wasn't for Wynwood.Maaku

Went to get some soup for lunch at the office cafe. A nice white bean variety. As I was paying, I dropped it and splashed soup absolutely everywhere. I made such a mess. The bean-splosion sprayed 20 feet in every direction. On the counter, the cash register, the person in front of me, the person behind me, and me in the middle of it all, head to toe in beans.

Found a 100 year old classical guitar in a charity shop for £20. Sounds beautiful... Making me play differently already. Love that about new guitars (or instruments)

Ever hated a friends kid? Mate of mine has a full on 4 year old brat. Actually avoid the guy because of his unbearable kid. Oh well.
- Yes, I've got a friend whose daugther is a psyco... a crazy cold hearted manipulatorOBBTKN
- Teachers told her parents she is going to be a great boss...OBBTKN
- I simply RUN when she's approachingOBBTKN
- I hear ya. It distresses me that I feel that way about some kids.Gnash
- yes, inteliboy. Our 8 year old has a friend whom at 8, is already a complete and total asshole. I can't stand having him around the house and we'vekona
- been avoiding having around lately. It's bad enough he treats our 8 year old son like shit, but he bullies our 4 year old son too.kona
- The kid is a full foot shorter than everyone in his class and I have a sneaking suspicion the kid is acting out because he knows he's so much shorter. Still, Ikona
- want to smash the kids face in.kona
- Makes me feel like such a bad person! all kids should be lovedGnash
- yes Gnash... me tooOBBTKN

Got in to the shower this morning and caught a whiff of gas - you know when you smell gas, but not overtly, and it prods from the very edge of your senses so you're not exactly sure where it's coming from or if it's even there?
Another whiff, and I'm wondering if somehow the boiler's got a leak and it's somehow coming through the showerhead. I groan, because I don't need this shit right now, and another whiff.
Except, it's not quite. It's subtly different. As pungent but more rounded and not so specific as Ethyl Mercaptan (yeah, I looked it up).
Christ, I realise - it's me.
I'd finished off a tub of some particularly fragrant tarka Dahl last night and by fuck, now it's trying to escape from my pores.
I reek. Thank god I work alone.
- Best recipe ever. Will make again.detritus
- Have you tried to shower more often? j/kOBBTKN
- Lately, I've got the same problem with onions... look around thinking "oh man, somebody needs a bath..."OBBTKN
- Until I realize that it's me... o.OOBBTKN
- Ey, this looks tasty yo... https://www.bbc.co.u…OBBTKN
- Oh, it is tasty - that was one of the three recipe I based mine on.detritus
- I eat a LOT of garlic and onions, but no smell - I'm guessing this stench was because the remnants had been left to fester for a day or so :)detritus
- drink shit loads of water afterwards!
Shame we don't have a decent non-hookup sauna scene here in the UKmugwart - Ha, great post. Reminds me of my mum's superhuman ability to know I have eaten Indian food, often a day and occasionally days before. Bizarre.fadein11
- I have everything I need to make this at home, except for the cilantro and green chilies. Added to my list!monospaced
- Trick is, imho, to make sure the end result isn't dry, so make sure there's oil/butter/ghee enough to keep it sloppy. Also, do blend, but not utterly.detritus
- Do we have something akin to a QBN cooks thread? That could be fun.garbage

I broke up with someone I trully loved, because I knew he didnt love me back as much... after 1 year and a half of relationship
I feel the worst I've felt in years, and right now, I cannot finish a ongoing (and very uninspiring) project I started 3 weeks ago.
I might lose the client and money in the process.Im feeling quite lost.
- It's weird to go from being a duo to being your own self again, but a few months from now you'll feel fine, time does heal everything. Don't wallow in pain,spl33nidoru
- and start incorporating novelty and excitement in your life right now, do (for yourself) things you've always wanted to do, meet new people, move forward asap.spl33nidoru
- Sorry to hear that. Time heals buddy. Chin up!Hayzilla
- Força aí cara! Get out, exercise, it's summer in Brasil...dmay
- Embrace your feelings, focus on yourself.
Everything is going to be fine.ApeRobot - ^ indeed.mugwart
- Be honest to your client (they are human, sometimes, as well) - tell them a personal tragedy has happened in your life and can you have an extension.mugwart
- Morn for a bit, but morn healthy, treat yourself to decent food and treats.
plan a list of personal improvements.mugwart - then slowly work on them. You'll be on your feet in no time.mugwart
- Got divorced a year ago, I was in bad shape for a long time but like Hayzilla said, time heals. Just hang on, you'll feel better eventually :)Maaku
- my step dad died suddenly I was up to my neck in work & under pressure. A friend helped on project, split work up. You can do it...you really can :)mrAtor
- Running / exercise can really help. Get that dopamine pumping. Other than that, it just takes time. Hang in there.garbage
- As many already said: time heals. But time passes faster, when you do a lot of new stuff. You can be sad, but dont' let you hold back.Longcopylover
- I'm feeling your pain at the moment. It's tough but use it to focus on what you want to do in life. Know it is the right path... Time healsset

Been some time since I could find new work. Rebuilt website, built out new projects, had a couple art shows. Thought about trying to switch to illustration as a focus instead of design, but have no experience in that world (outside of, well, actually knowing how to draw).
It feels so stupid to have so much anxiety wrapped up in worrying about feeding myself. Like that these are and will be problems for people on the whole ... I dunno perpetual unemployment is a bitch.

Fuck Sky broadband. Second time in 6 months my bill has jumped up due to features I've cancelled or not signed up for just appearing on my account. Overcharged over £100 last year and after spending a week on the phone and eventually admitting it was their systems' fault refused to refund me, now it's happened again.
Only way to get anything from these fucks is to constantly throw tantrums and threaten to quit but trying to sell up / move house ATM so can't take a new contract elsewhere.
When you look at it, the difference between the likes of Sky, Virgin, BT contracts and the indie ISPs is a couple of quid a month. FFS could have saved that in Rennies alone.
- What extras are the charging? do you just have broadband or whole package, TV etc.?
I wouldn't touch Sky with a bargepole tbh.fadein11 - they*fadein11
- First one was a NOW tv bundle I took out, cancelled after a year but after a month re-appeared on my bill. Last month I had a 12 month offer end and they'vekingsteven
- switched me to a talk package that wasn't part of the offer and i didn't have before + a general price hike on top. bill is over double what it was for Jan!kingsteven
- not to mention the connection is shit (and tbh the internet isn't the refuge it used to be)kingsteven
- not good and hearing this a lot. I have been on Virgin for years now with no issues. Insanely fast (where I am anyway).fadein11
