I am a sufferer

Five Geek Social Fallacies: "Geek Social Fallacy #4: Friendship Is Transitive
Every carrier of GSF4 has, at some point, said:
'Wouldn't it be great to get all my groups of friends into one place for one big happy party?!'
If you groaned at that last paragraph, you may be a recovering GSF4 carrier.
GSF4 is the belief that any two of your friends ought to be friends with each other, and if they're not, something is Very Wrong."

die puny humans: the universe may be trumpet shaped.

The first thing I though when I saw this was... Hey, if you kind of folded it round a bit, and back on itself (mental process a bit like someone making a balloon dog goes on)... You'd get a Klein Bottle.

That's the kind of universe I want to live in.

Oh, by the way, I'm engaged. And, fingers crossed, by the date we've set to marry, we'll be able to 'marry' legally. Woot!

I think the demographic of Radio One may be slightly different to that which they imagine.

I mean, I know 2manydjs rock, but these people are requesting Dolly Parton, Rainbow and Babylon f*****g zoo. They're all about 30 and pining for their misspent teenage years, or trying to be knowingly ironic.

On the other hand, it could just be that really strange stuff is now considered classic.

On the plus side, at least someone chose Steevie Wonder doing Superstition.
