Since when did the LGBT thread become a wank vs. not-to-wank discussion? I'm all for whoever discussing aspects of sexuality, but I think this is a step int he wrong direction..

Whilst watching BBC News 24 earlier, they had a bird from the NUS talking about the amount of debt us poor students are going to be facing - and gave around £10,000 as the mean figure that most students will leave with - debt wise. Then she started bitching about how the government should be paying all the tuition fees and stuff, and giving us more grants... Agree? Personally, I think not. I think the system currently is probably the best at the moment - by having a capped price. This way it avoids in increase in the amount of tax people have to pay. I think it also puts off people who want to go to university cos' "I dunno' what else to do", or "all me mates go there". These people are the reason why university had to put in place tuition fees in the first place - people easting there money due to their lack of career advice in the first place. I feel that less, not more, people should be going to university - afterall, if you're never going to use your degree then its pretty selfish to take other people's places, and more importantly, their funding away from them. Maybe this comes across as a bit elitist, but I think its the fairest way of ensuring that university education is used for its proper purpose. And as a second question: how much debt are current/expecting students expecting? Around £30,000 for me. I wanted to create a separate debate, hence this not being in the loonyversity thread..

Scoreboard updated upto Round 3.

Its a quiz though, they're not exactly the most varied things...

We don't all have Ashley's knowledge of TV shows though.. I think Moria's way of doing it is the best, i.e. its not a mad race to google or wikipedia.

Motion finishes the round. Most American money is 75% cotton and 25% flax, as cotton paper is hardly to counterfeit. Anyway, thought I'd throw in a trick one for ya! Next round!

I'm just waiting for the City fans to come forth and spew bile and semen on their result today. Yes. They won - but they were utter shite at the same time. Its a shame Sven wasn't this lucky with England...

Correct. Good last minute change Now, finish it off: Question 4!

Yeah it is, but Stefkov beatcha to it.

This is the answer I was looking for. Sorry, bit too late! Hmm, I always thought it was the Ye Olde Trip..that's the answer I was looking for though, so the point I'll give. No trick question, correct now anyway. Sorry, I would give you the point if you'd watched the film instead Again, I was looking for the Ye Olde Trip.. The one you study at yes, but not mine! HINT!

Incorrect, better luck next time!

Too late. Sorry bub.

Mien came through as non-financially assessed. meaning I'll miss out on about a grands worth of grants. I've phoned them up and they don't know what the fuck is going on... They are mega shit.

My round will be next. I should have it done for around 3am, ish.

Emo! Boo-yah!

Yeah, GCSEs don't count for much - unless you're applying for Oxbridge or going straight into work...

Medics at Cambridge are shit. They know their stuff but in practical situations they aren't meant to be that good really.. Plus, 20 odd hours of lectures for 3 years, then they teach you the clinical stuff? No thanks. congrats to the rest of you guys!

Ah cool man. What do you do?

Evening, I've been clearing out tonight and I've found a shit load of old crappy cables and electrical whatnot. Instead of throwing them away into the bin to be disposed of over hundreds of years in a landfill.. I thought I might do the responsible thing.. recycle. Now, I could just throw them in the plastics bin - but they're all plastic - so to cut a long story short: any place I can get rid of them in a environmentally responsible way? Cheers yo.

Haha, that was a cool little twist. Unlucky Letty!

Cheers, that'll do!

She was doing it for her kids due to the mad shortages at Xmas.. chill.

AAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!

...cloudy... bollocks..
