ubejinxed Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 i'm almost always early (except work of course). all of my clocks and watches are set 15min fast. i can't deal with it when someone says they are going to be somewhere at sometime and they aren't.

RumPuncher Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 I'm so early for everything. I guess I'd rather take my time than be rushed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
some pittsburgh flavor Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 that's a nice collection of things you have there. if they can't wait for you, they must not want you to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jades_blue Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 Haha.. story of my life. I never get to work on time. It's true, I'm always like an hour & a half late.... If I say I'll arrive at 5, I won't show up until 5:20. I can't help it if the time in my world is delayed... I need to learn how to proof before I post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveAustin Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 I've got all my clocks set 15 minutes ahead as well. Funny thing is I'm usually thinking fuck I'm running late...and I end up showing up on time or early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubejinxed Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 Originally posted by some pittsburgh flavor if they can't wait for you, they must not want you to begin with. but if they're important to you, you will make the effort to be on-time i know if something/someone is important enough, i will be there early. if not, then punctuality is not as much of an issue.

RumPuncher Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 From The Streets Its a beautiful song, and a little bit on topic. Lyrics for The Streets - It's Too Late She said meet me at the gates at 8 Leave now don't be late She said one day she'd walk away cos I'm always late Thought things were ok Didnt care though anyway Say sorry babe, I had to meet a mate, tempting fate We first met through a shared view, she loved me and I did too It's now 7:50 getting ready better be nifty Do my hair quickly, step out it's cloudy Mate bells me to borrow money, I got two Henry's and a dealer to pay Call up on geezers to rid these green trees of my reeking jeans Got a you think I care outglaring geezers stares I'm here and I'm there Couldn't see past the end of my beer What was getting near, all the silence after the cheers [Chorus] She said meet me at the gates Don't be late, but pretty soon the day came for change And I was glad she never walked away So Im choosing what to wear, doing my hair with an hour to spare When my life went pear, she'd been there with a thick stare Big wheel climed to the top, geezer scares bounced off Standing at the top of this huge mountain, smiling and shouting Spring flowers sprouting, not one inch of doubt in my mind as I reached the gates Came round the corner at a rate Risked her love but Im gonna set things straight Never again am I gonna be late Never again am I gonna be late Never again am I gonna be late [Chorus] I said meet me at the gates Leave now don't be late I waited for a while listening to her voicemail, mind set sail Then the facts turned me pale, wind rain and hail My fears unveiled, for my fair female She'd walked away, too little too late I step up the pace, walk past the gates, rain runs over my face Spirit falls from grace I purchase a hazy escape at the alcohol place in the chase Sat down I got a fat frown Weaping and drowning my senses For this love game's expensive I walk in a trance Gort a wounded soldier stance The everyday geezers stares throw me off balance Now nothing holds significance And nothing holds relavance 'Cause the only thing I can see is her elagance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RumPuncher Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 it took me about 20 years to understand the 'bucket on a string' metaphor from that song. I've been hearing that song easily since I was a baby and only now do I get it. You pull the bucket towards you, take all of the usefull stuff, then toss it away again. damn!

Guest imported_Tesseract Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 one of my fav songs ever Dm - C (X2) (se repite toda la cancion) I'm walking out for love I'm walking bad really down like a cool breeze I'm gonna be late again, 'Driver wait for me please!' I'm running all in vain, trying to catch this fucking train Time don't fool me no more I throw my watch to the floor, it's so lazy Time don't do it again, Now I'm stressed and strained with anger and pain in the subway train Now it's half past two - Long gone the rendez-vous Now it's half past three - Time made a fool out of me Now it's half past four - Baby can't you see No use in waiting no more - It's a timing tragedy A I think it's nine when the clock says ten This girl wont' wait for the out of time, out of time man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jades_blue Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 All my clocks are ahead.. but shit doesn't work. Even if someone were to do it for me -- I'd still be conscious of the fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
