This is a nice and pleasant thread. I approve.

Then you'll looooooooooooove:

While I agree that the price of alcohol has been getting increasingly high over the past few years, it is nevertheless still a luxury item. Petrol I can understand people complaining about, since for most, travelling by car to get to work etc is a necessity, and without transport, they wouldn't have a job etc. There is no basic human right that we should be able to afford alcohol though. You might as well petition the government that 3D TVs are too expensive and they should cut tax on those so you can afford one. Because you want one. Having said that, i do think there are better ways for them to raise money, and better things to tax, but that's what you get with a Conservative government.

Woah, what the hell happened?! I appear to have been made chairman of the anti-alcohol brigade. While this is an honour, I assure you, I am far too busy to take on a challenging job such as this. Therefore i humbly resign, effective immediately.

I went to the Game store on Oxford Street on Saturday and, after being asked if I was visiting from another country (must have been struck down with short term Foreign Accent syndrome) managed to buy a few cheap games. I really hope Game doesn't disappear completely, but i think that's what's going to happen. Everyone i know buys their games online now, either downloading them or off Amazon. EDIT: Went in to my local Game on my way home and found a cheap pre-owned copy of Gears of War 3. Brill.

If it is too soon, then these won't be appropriate.

Are you suggesting that Vialli should be the next manager, or that they should choose a player-manager? Or just having a reminisce?

You therefore won't have read this one: The 7 Most Useless Transformers Ever

And yet you just managed to describe it. Well done!

One complaint per instance MoogleViper.

I'm pretty tempted, but right now i can't unfortunately as all my code etc for work would take a while to sort out again if i reinstalled my OS, so it'll have to wait until i either get a new laptop, or finish my PhD. It looks good though, i can't wait to try it!

I think the three challenges idea would definitely cut down on diving. But yeah, for now, why not just leave it at having a camera on the goal line. Easy peasy.

I cannot believe that people are still having the 'goal-line technology' argument. Just put a camera on the goal-line, and then either use software or just pay a another bloody referee to look at the replay. The arguments against are so bizarre i can't believe it's taken this long.

That is absolutely hilarious. Funniest thing i've seen all month.

I watched The Artist today. Pretty good.

Just booked flights and a hotel in New Orleans in June for a conference! All paid for (hopefully) by my department!

How on earth did this thread derail from lesbian squirting orgies to megapixels in such a short space of time?

No....it was a hilarious joke (one which i am now regretting). Because you see, the film is a silent film, and so if it was in German, it wouldn't m.....oh never mind. Have a silly picture instead.

I downloaded a copy of The Artist to watch tonight, but as i settled down to watch it, i realised it is in german... What am I supposed to do now?!

Wow........

Did she say she wouldn't date 15 year olds?

What is a 'copy'?

Wasn't sure whether to put this in the Funny, or the Awesome thread. It should probably be in both.

Indeed, it wasn't just how quickly he did it, it was how stylishly he did it a lot of the time, like how he often completed the 100 coins and 8 red coins both at the same time and collected them both together.
