Now pointlessly wasting more time playing Prototype – not that you'd care at all… http://raptr.com/TheChrisD #
I unlocked 5 Xbox achievements on Prototype! http://raptr.com/TheChrisD #
Oh Honey Nut Shredded Wheat, how I have missed thee #
RT @rickoshea: Would really like you to buy ticket to Brainwave's big event of the year. Love a big online turnout http://short.ie/qz5uk2 #
Twitter really needs a "Report spam" link underneath the "block" link… #

Don't tell me their eircom's DNS is falling to pieces again… #
@Popple3 You need to head into the router settings and change it there. A pain, I know. #
@rickoshea Nothing wrong with following lots of people. Just make sure you get a bigger screen so you can see each batch of new tweets in reply to rickoshea #
@rickoshea Surely the more important people stand out more than the… "filler". If I can put it like that. in reply to rickoshea #
@KBKarma You still using a ball mouse? in reply to KBKarma #
@KBKarma I must say, you have an excellent choice in mice in reply to KBKarma #
@majornelson You only finding that part now? in reply to majornelson #
Right, Prototype is now officially the worst game ever designed for letting me confuse "Save" with "Load". #
I unlocked 4 Xbox achievements on Prototype! http://raptr.com/TheChrisD #

@themaddhatter Just finished the story. Pissed off though that I have to replay three hours worth again to finish the game without dying >:( in reply to themaddhatter #
I think fish for dinner tonight. Hopefully I'll be at least halfway done with the Landmark Collectables by the time I'm done. #
@Igiggles From what I remember from others, you can't. Hence why WordPress rocks in reply to Igiggles #
@ninjaconor Oh. Dear. Lord. in reply to ninjaconor #
@WillKnott It is, after a while. in reply to WillKnott #
OK WTF, why is my site pointing to a parked domain page…? #
@nahgoe Oh, it's just an eircom issue then? I thought they would had managed to fix their DNS by now. in reply to nahgoe #
Internet is SLOOOOOOOOWWWWWW! #
Oooh, what is this? An m4a opening in Windows Media Player 12 rather than crappy Real Player? I <3 this new hard drive #
@kev_d Unfortunately Macs are fail. What with being un-upgradeable (or at least near impossible) in reply to kev_d #
24 Landmark Collectibles to go. Then I'll go record some more Platinum LP coverage. I hope :/ #
@TheMiseducation Apparently Adrian now uses Twitter, if you're interested @akennedyfm104 in reply to TheMiseducation #
Right, that's everything I'm going to get from Prototype anytime soon. All collectibles collected, all Web targets consumed #
@omgtbh Lame excuses as always. in reply to omgtbh #
I unlocked 5 Xbox achievements on Prototype! http://raptr.com/TheChrisD #
Now pointlessly wasting more time playing NASCAR 09 EU – not that you'd care at all… http://raptr.com/TheChrisD #
Oh will you fucking shut up you stupid phone, I know your battery's low, now will you stop fucking beeping about it? #
I unlocked the Worst to First achievement on NASCAR 09 EU! http://raptr.com/TheChrisD #
@HowsoJoe Then don't? in reply to HowsoJoe #
Is it just me or does Battlefield 1943 look like an easy 200? #
@ninjaconor I knew there was an ulterior motive… in reply to ninjaconor #
OMFG, my NASCAR 09 save just got wiped. Seriously, WTF. #
@kev_d Because I happen to kick some major ass at it. Plus getting 1k isn't as hard as in Forza. in reply to kev_d #
@kev_d It all depends. Is you life really that noteworthy? in reply to kev_d #
Mental note: Buy tons more sweetcorn in the next trip to shop. #
@cufa …eat it? in reply to cufa #
Now pointlessly wasting more time playing Fallout 3 – not that you'd care at all… http://raptr.com/TheChrisD #
I think I'm losing too much time to good games lately… #
@EA_APOC Overkill to make a program to constantly refresh your Twitter page every 5 seconds and play massively loud alerts for anything new? in reply to EA_APOC #
Oh wow, 7am. Damn you Fallout 3. Bed. #
I unlocked 3 Xbox achievements on Fallout 3! http://raptr.com/TheChrisD #
I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really need to get back on schedule… #
I should probably stop eating ramen noodles raw and actually cook them… #
@icedcoffee Unless it was crying from laughter, or from watching anime, I'm afraid I will have to laugh at you… in reply to icedcoffee #
@SuperKaylo Take it a sign to do more work. in reply to SuperKaylo #
Crap, I'm only 74% addicted to Twitter. My need to check e-mail before Twitter in the mornings and lack of using on toilets failed me #
@AceyBongos Please tell me it'll be at a reasonable hour… in reply to AceyBongos #
Oooh, I almost completely forgot about the fact I had saved the Fm104 playlist in WMP. Yay for good old Dublin radio #
@JonnyPaula So, what about a gathering for the 7th of August on this side of the Atlantic? in reply to JonnyPaula #
Windows Media Player 12 needs a mute button when you either hover over it or right-click on the Win7 taskbar. #
I know it's probably mainly used by splogs – but is there a plugin to let you auto-import posts from other blogs and post on yours? #
I'd like a way to auto-import any posts I make on other sites into my own site. Or at least have them show up in my overall feed. #
@coollike I dunno, that's quite a lot to ask of someone from a single tweet :/ in reply to coollike #
@werdz Oh, quit blaming the tools in reply to werdz #
Wha… it's 9pm? But it's still so bright out :/ #
Yes. I am that sad to have a lifestream set up. Still needs a way to access Facebook stuff… #
Yes. I am that sad to have a lifestream set up. Still needs a way to access Facebook stuff… http://www.thechrisd.com/lifestream #
So if @lifestrm really is made by the game guys behind the plugin for WordPress – then this would be interesting to try out #
I've just realised how much of a blog-head I am – by misreading "bloopers" as "bloggers" #
Does anyone know if @ellybabes is alive much recently? #
@NationalLottie Great, now my e-mail to her must look to be even more ignorant in reply to NationalLottie #
@NationalLottie I knew that she did a bit of knitting when at home, so I was asking if she's be able to help me make a hat for Eirtakon… in reply to NationalLottie #
@NationalLottie …in November as part of my planned costume. in reply to NationalLottie #
Now pointlessly wasting more time playing The Orange Box – not that you'd care at all… http://raptr.com/TheChrisD #
RT @rubot: [..]try and introduce a phrase into popular usage. Its "Piss On A Hat!" and its to express surprise and disbelief at a statement. #
I always seem to suffer from very sweaty armpits when playing FPS'. I don't know why, but it's always those types of games :/ #
@kev_d I could tell you, but it's be hard fought to fit it in 140 characters, let alone 1400… in reply to kev_d #
@jpmontoya Hopefully a top-20 start is on the cards. But seriously, Brian's getting all the poles :/ in reply to jpmontoya #
Oh yay, I'm only finding out now that someone actually did sell me High Speed Maneuvering. Hello MicroWarpDrives #
Oh bollocks, looks as if my headset has gone and faffed up even more. Mic now won't record any audio. #
Music festivals. I just don't get the point of them. #
@mieows To Fermoy? in reply to mieows #
Ugh, Internet slowing down. YouTube videos taking an absolute age to load… #
@coollike I am confuselled… in reply to coollike #
@Axeface Anger is fun in reply to Axeface #
@rickoshea That didn't take long. in reply to rickoshea #
Well that confirms it – my headset is fubar'd. Now I need to find something new to be able to record commentary for my Platinum LP #
@KPaul I think it's more an issue that people are going to tinyurl.com/omg because that's what Twitter/twhirl auto-links. #
Back is hurting and now I'm feeling pressured to have a costume ready by next Saturday :/ #
@TrustTommy Epic want. in reply to TrustTommy #
Oy, want to go make food… but really can't be bothered. Munching on Frosties for the time being… #
Now pointlessly wasting more time playing The Sims 2: Free Time – not that you'd care at all… http://raptr.com/TheChrisD #
@sineadcochrane It's easy without cheats once you're past the start and have a steady income. Problem is trying to keep the house small… in reply to sineadcochrane #
@gerrymulvenna Yup, 'tis the best one since I can accurately make a Sim of myself who does nothing but game – and gets perks for it in reply to gerrymulvenna #
RT @IE: From Windows Canada – Internet Explorer 8 vs the competition. – http://bit.ly/8noUA ^JT – Some of you people really should read. #
Wow, epic productivity – kid now teenager, him and her both top job and perma-platinum, wad of cash for new house, and new kid on the way. #
@dailydreamer Unfortunately, yes. Kinda wish it was real life, but in reality things don't go THAT well. in reply to dailydreamer #
It's yet another slow day here… #
@binncheol If by issues you mean loading very slowly, then yes. #
It's only when you realise you haven't read them in a while, do you realise you never re-subscribed to their feeds… #
@psneeze What about the chloroform for the kids? in reply to psneeze #
Feck, I really should take that chicken out of the freezer like I said I would three-four hours ago… #
Mental note: go to the shop at some point tomorrow and pick up fresh vegetables. i.e. Vegetables that don't have a display date of 22/6. #
Now pointlessly wasting more time playing Fallout 3 – not that you'd care at all… http://raptr.com/TheChrisD #
I can has new (well, replacement!) microphone, yay. LP continuation is kinda possible tonight #
@monaghanpenguin Blow them all keeping me sane? in reply to monaghanpenguin #
Right, now to the IndyCars for a few hours. Let's hope PT can bounce back for a win #
OMG WTF was that @h3lio? Why on earth did you shove PT into the wall like that? What a stupid move, you fucking eejit. The crowd are right. #
Hmmm, @h3lio, it does seem to be a racing incident. But you still could have given him more room on the inside at the corner and avoided it. #
@sandbarmark Out of the race. Contact with @h3lio in Turn 3 took them both out while running 2-3. in reply to sandbarmark #
@sandbarmark Personally I think @h3lio was at fault for not giving @paultracy3 enough room. But, a racing incident. Crowd madly bood though. in reply to sandbarmark #
@sandbarmark Around tenth or so, I think. Lost out with a caution, and then involved in an incident taking half his front wing off. in reply to sandbarmark #
@topgold LOL. in reply to topgold #
Just after helping @WillKnott cure his compromised WP install. Man, they were sneaky bastards :/ #
Mental note: Now that I have two twhirl windows open – try not to mix up mine and the bears. #
@bsangel Whaaaaa? in reply to bsangel #
@WillKnott Wow, two whole shelves of Maria Johnson CDs? #
Hmmm @WillKnott, what about all of Morty Jasper's tunes? They really haven't been getting the reviews they deserve… #
Uh @WillKnott, are you sure you don't mean Martijn Janoski? in reply to WillKnott #
@bsangel No idea. I remember having about fifteen once before. Not sure how many more though. in reply to bsangel #
