Geekiness
So I think the effects of third year Comp Sci have finally gotten to me, my geek rating has probably sky rocketed (and no I’m not redoing the test to check) a few things over the last couple of days have only proved this to me.
While sitting in the QM this lunch time as usual with Matt, I sort of got thinking about how much we were probably annoying other people. You know there is always that one couple sitting at a table looking “loved up” and I normally have to admit that I hate them. At the moment it seems less of a problem for me - I have no idea why ![]()
Anyway I mentioned this to Matt and somehow we got on to the conversation about how people may have names for us: like Annoying-Couple-who-sit-in-the-food-factory (my suggestion) and couple.dcs.gla.ac.uk (Matt’s non-surprisingly). So we sat there laughing at this (and sorry for any non-CompSci folk reading this I’m sure it’s extremely dull and pointless) we thought about how we are TOTALLY the compsci couple (at undergrad level at least) and how we should get t-shirts to celebrate this fact so
couple.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~his
and
couple.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~hers
matching t-shirts, what do you think?

Wendy suggests a good slapping may be in order? :p

Separate homes? Not a bright outlook, unless by the magic of ln -s they point to the same place.

I’m totally up for the matching tshirts, for maximum ability to further sicken folk with how loved-up we are. Their jealousy is already so transparent!
And yes, we’re indeed the CompSci couple, the veritable king and queen of the department, and I feel it’s something to be proud of. Damn ace.

THE Couple of dcs.gla.ac.uk? Nonsense. Muffy and Quintin are the ones to beat.

HA HA HA HA!
Matt, I can see the main point of attack for all future slaggings!

I dunno what’s more Comp Sci - the post in itself or the second comment from the top.

It’s not JUST dull and pointless for non-CompSci folk

Top tip for sickening people: sit at the table next to your friends, but don’t acknowledge them.
November 9th, 2004 at 9:25 pm
That last one was not totally true, you said bye when we left :p

Is this the most comments ever you have had in so little time then Lauren?
November 9th, 2004 at 9:28 pm
The MSN activity has produced a fair bit of good comments, good work team! Matt and Lauren i wish you all the best when you get those t-shirts. That will be all. Cheers, peace out

I’ve come up with a more sickening couple:
Helen Purchase and John Patterson. (No, not in reality - as far as I know..)
I challenge you all to beat that.

Comedy — you HAVE to get those t-shirts made, and then we want pictures! What about going with ‘ln-s couple.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~his|hers’ on the back?

Oh dear.
