Today

February 22, 2002 1:16 AM

Today is slacker day, at least in the UK. Rest up and do nothing all day. As Spaced's Simon Pegg says on the site: "How can you possibly comprehend the value of your own hectic endeavour if you don't occasionally put your feet up and experience a state of complete calm. So, when Slacker Day comes around, stop Yanging around and Yin out for a bit. You'll feel better."

Shouldn't that link to Spaced be http://www.spaced-out.org.uk? The one that's linked to in the post goes to some architecture company.

I've been on paid leave for the last nine weeks. No wonder I talk so much shit.

Looks slack.
Smells slack.
Tastes like slack.

Good thing I didn't step in it.

Bugger. My internet connection has been on and off most of the day, so I missed the crap link. Sorry adrianhon, you're completely correct.
