I do the video game thing as well, sometimes, but like I say I lose interest very quickly because there's nobody to share with. My ex-friend Dave, the one who was responsible for getting Sam and I together, and the one who literally moved house and changed phone number to ditch me, we used to play video games all the time. We've literally gone whole weekends playing almost nonstop, pausing only to eat, piss and sleep.
Even though he cut me off, he would still occasionally go fishing with my dad (not as bait). Last I ever heard of him, they were due for doing that, so I asked my dad to ask him if he would pop over and talk to me afterwards. Dave said he would, so I waited in. After a while, I rang my dad to see if they were back yet. He said that they'd been back for ages and was surprised that Dave hadn't come over as he said he was going to. Basically he'd told my dad he was coming to see me, then pissed off home without even letting me know. So I stayed in for nothing and saw no-one. Since then, as I say, he's got a new number. That's someone I've known for probably about thirty years.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
