Only 12 days though!

Well you don't. It's essentially a charity, but one where you keep getting the money back to give away again. I've paid in about $300, but i've given almost $800 in loans. If i put no more money in, i could just keep giving that $300 again and again to different people who need it. Technically i could remove the $300 at some point (minus the small percentage that doesn't get paid back) but i don't really see the point.

I only saw one Harry Potter....obviously needs another watch. I thought there were too many from Kill Bill and not enough Jackie Chan. Also no Kung Pow at all!

Don't be silly, you can never had too many forwards. Put him in defense. I've found a disturbing lack of goals coming from my defense.

Hmmmm, i'm not sure whether SSB or Goldeneye is my favourite on N64. Probably spent the same amount of time with each, but more mulitplayer fun with G007.... I never owned most of the other consoles, but of the ones i had a go on: Xbox: Halo PS2: Lego Star Wars PS3: Resistance: Fall of Man

To be fair, it's the standing around for 3 hours beforehand that does the damage. If it was only 3 hours which was completely filled with the band/musician it probably wouldn't be all that bad. Anyway, just got the date and time of my second interview confirmed. So much less nervous about it now that i've done the first one. I need to do some research on car suspension systems though at some point so I don't make a fool of myself.

It would make a lot of sense since Little Mac is in one of Nintendos only dedicated fighting games, for him to be in their biggest fighting game franchises. Did that sentence make sense, i feel that it did...i'm happy with it.

Bump. I thought this needed bringing up again. I noticed that a couple of members on here loaned money which has since been repaid @Eenuh @MoogleViper, so you can loan it out again (or withdraw it, i think). I'm not sure but i think they have since changed the process so you can withdraw the money back out again once it has been repaid, or loan it again. Anywho, you should check in a re-loan the money! They've also launched Kiva Zip, which is a service they are trying out where the money doesn't go through a middle man and so all of it goes to the borrower, and there are no horrific interest rates. Unfortuntely it's only being trialled in the US and Kenya (and there are no current borrowers in Kenya) but it's a nice thought. Anywho, if anyone fancies lending money, join the N-Europe team!

Hopefully seeing this tonight in 2D if we can get tickets.

This is awesome. Made we want to go and watch so many films:

I went to see Muse at the Etihad in Manchester, and their set was about 2 hours 15 mins or something, and although i love Muse, i think it was a tad too long. I don't think i could stand for 3 hours (plus however long you've been standing beforehand) at any gig and enjoy myself. Hope it's good though!

Apparently Man City are going to pay £30 million for Isco. What i don't understand is - what exactly do the FFP rules prevent? Man City have spend like £80 million already this summer? I don't mind if they buy up absolutely everybody personally, but isn't the FFP supposed to stop this?

I fucking love the Villager memes. Just so perfect.

Apply for everything!!!

I've watched up to Season 6, but i'm waiting for 6 to finish before we get into it. I like to watch them in a bundle. I'm personally not as much of a fan of Mad Men as my gf is, but they are still good to watch.

Like the other thread, i'm only including consoles i owned: Gameboy Colour: Pokemon Red N64: Super Smash Bros Gamecube: Spiderman 2 Wii: probably Mario Kart Wii Xbox 360: Just Cause 2 or Halo: Reach, can't decide.

As someone who is doing a PhD in Physics/Engineering, the first season of Big Bang was actually funny and pretty clever. They tended to have some simple jokes with a smattering of ones that you would only get if you knew a fair bit about 'science' etc. But as the show went on, and the audience got bigger, presumably they had to cater to a lower common denominator and as such it has been getting less clever and more rubbish. The middle seasons were still funny (i think), albeit with less academical in-jokes. The later seasons are just terrible.

Fourthly, you just shit the bed.

5-5 And i think it'll be 35-42, with the ref picking up the extra.

I had to buy some Canisten today for my SO. I looked the cashier dead in the eye as i did it, like a man.

This is something that annoys me (and should probably go in the Things That Annoy You thread, rather than here) although this is not aimed at you Ashley, but i hate it that wine is associated so heavily with being cultured, and if you don't like it you aren't cultured etc. It's just a drink, you may love it and quaff many bottles of it, but it doesn't make you more cultured just because you drink it.

31?! That's old! How can someone be that old, it's like.....older than time itself.... Happy Birthday though.

Mine won't be very long: Game Boy Colour: Pokemon Red N64: Super Mario 64 Gamecube: Super Monkey Ball Wii: Wii Sports Xbox360: Just Cause 2

I had a job as a hospital porter during school, and got it without interview. Then i've been a student for four years (parents paid for accomodation, lived off my loan otherwise). Then I got a PhD grant which i lived off for another four years. It's not a position i like to be in, as my CV looks rubbish but it's quite common i think.
