Primary school I can't remember, everyone seemed to get along with everyone...
Secondary School I was a "Proper Greebo" and actively chased/hated by the chavs. All the greebo's were in the top sets though and most of the chavs are in jail/cleaning toilets for a living, justice! There were very, very few geeks (maybe 5?) in my year at school so I'd say we were near the bottom of the pile. Was an awesome time though, and while a few of us got cracked once in a while, as strange as it sounds it was all in the name of fun. I don't think there was ever any real malice, it's just what the kids did. The heirachy was like this kinda... Geeks -> Grebs -> Popular (liked by everyone) -> Popular Chavs -> Chavs. In the real world, now, it seen a full on role reversal though.
Sixth form. Hated it, didn't make any friends except one guy and barely attended because of this. Bad, bad times.

*high freakin five* - same height same weight!! lol!
*returned*
But what you lack in height, you make up for in awesome. Yeeeeeeees.[/Quote]If only my ex thought that...
Anyway I've decided to go on a 2 month excerise and eating well bender. Cycling 8 miles a day and doing 200 reps of weights, and wrist cruncher things, and 100 sit ups and 100 press ups.
Cutting out ALL Pizza, Kebabs, 'unnecessary' cheese, white bread, chocolate and crisps.
Started yesterday and so far so good

This thread... makes me... sighragelaugh.
More people have died from knife crime in the UK in teh same period. You say you joined up to help your country? The majority of the country don't give a shit about any of these 'wars' that our armies are involved in. The 'peacekeeping' doesn't better serve us civilians directly at all. Join the fire brigade, drive an ambulance. Be a teacher. Just because you risk your lives for my country doesn't mean I have to be at all thankful for it. Because I'm not.
How about we talk about risk and not death? You are wearing full body armour and you have a gun on you. There is a quantity of risk of bodily harm being caused to a party somewhere on the line. Sure, you don't wanna die, but frankly entering a warzone and not realising that death is a possible outcome makes you the fool.
Or on roads, on the NHS, to schools, the police, charities, research, banks... The way I see it, the army takes a large chunk of money away from all these other sectors that would, frankly, better serve the country.
But, of course, there's politics. Lots of black and white boxes, red tape and bullshit and ignorance around. One person says the world would work better this way, another laughs in their face.
You may want to define 'moving the war forward'. Any government whose public is outraged at 10 deaths in a week is going to have a hard time with getting the public to accept a larger assault, a larger risk of bodies returning in bits and whatever.
Our country is not a war machine. We do not have an economy simply to fund the front line. My priorities are different to yours, and that is why I'd rather give a fiver to the homeless then to the army. The homeless guy, if not on drugs, will be cost-efficient with his fiver. The army will spend it on 30 seconds worth of bandwidth.
Post of the thread right there.

Anyone can do it!
I've weighed 12 stone for nearly 5 years and now I weigh 8st 9lbs after 6 months of eating better and doing more excerise, and a small daily dose of Wii Fit. My BMI is now at a healthy 21.55 and I haven't felt this good since I was at school. The hard work is worth it for the rewards of feeling great. -
My Special Edition came from Zavvi this morning! For £17.95 !
Consider that: Win!

Ha so true.
Next time someone moans about a dodgy iPod i'm gonna tell them they have no right to moan about their equipment as some parts of Africa have it so much worse...
Give our Service men and women some support for christ sakes.
I think the main issue people are taking is with the huge uproar over 8 deaths. Sure, it's a tradgedy as they are more preventable in some cases, however, the same could be argued for every unjust death within socitey, British or otherwise. Often on a much, much greater scale. How much more tax payers money do we need spent on the army/defence when there are much so many other, often much greater problems to deal with?

Thoroughly enjoyable race and I am IMMENSELY pleased for Mark Webber but absolutly GUTTED for Adrian Sutil.
Great race from Webber, Rosberg and Massa. Hamilton was desperately unlucky and I actually wanted him to do really well today, what a great start! I really hope next season they sort out the technical regulations and ban the double deck diffuser because it should promote more overtaking and the cars should find it easier to follow one another.

Here we go again...
I'm already sick of seeing this all over the news. No offecne to the people that have been killed and the families affected but millions and millions of people die everyday in 'avoidable' circumstances.
As has already been previously mentioned: "Africa"
I'm sure I share similar views to Nightwolf and Dyson and this time I will keep them to myself, instead I'll let Stewie do the talking... (sorry for the poor quality)

Well seeing my backlog has brought me to decide to not buy anymore games until after my birthday (18th September). Hopefully I'll be able to stick to it as it's only just over 2 months, and hopefully I'll get a few games finished and prove to myself that I'm just addicted to gaming and NOT addicted to BUYING games, which would be pretty worrying tbh.
See how it goes...

Is the spyro games from PS1 available at the download store?
Not yet.
It's out in America and I'm desperate to play through it again. It's an AMAZING game and one of the only games I've ever finished 100% -
Well I downloaded the trail and I'm so pissed off with it. Every 2 minutes it signs me out of PSN and I can't sustain any type of match. Is it the game or the connection? Never does this with the Wii or any other online PS3 games.
-
fuck the conduit, bet this will piss all over in multiplayer and from what I've heard the single player isn't all that.
I've already bought and paid for it, it just hasn't arrived. Plus I've never played online deathmatch with the Wii-mote / Nunchuck combi so I'm dying to try that...
This does look epic though! Destructable environments?
-
I don't think it looks too bad visually tbh.... *runs and hides for cover*
I agree, screenshots are looking good compared to the earlier ones and much, much better than most of the crap that's on the shelves
-
I might have to get this, although the Conduit is coming soon too....
what to do... -
Just phoned Zavvi and they will be dispatching tomorrow, which means it will be next week for us lot. But at £17.95 I'm really not too fussed.
Looking forward to reading everyones impressions!
-
Finished mine apart from the 25-30 N64 titles stashed under the bed, don't think I'll bother with them. I have 61 games left to finish! 62 when the Conduit arrives though I think I'll finish that next
-
What do people class games they havn't even started as unfinished or null?
I did it as Unfinished and didn't give it a star rating
-
I've signed up and added about 50% of my collection (doesn't take long at all). I've finished more than I though but there's a nice list there for me to work through over the summer.

There's no Morrison's in the city centre, which is where I was planning to go today... Bugger! I'm going to have to make an extra long trip!
If you're on about Leeds, there is one in the city centre its in the Merrion Centre up by the university. It's quite small though so they might not have much.

Happy birthday sir
-
Apparently so... I went to my local store and there wasn't much. Plenty on 360 but practically nothing on Wii and PS3 which is what I have... Picked up Mirror's Edge though. There was only that and FIFA'09 on PS3, on Xbox there was those two, Fallout 3, Smackdown '09 and a few other decent titles.
-
Got a tip-off from my Morrisions working buddy that from today all non-chart games (all platforms) and blu-rays will be selling for just £6!
Get down to your local branch early to pick up a bargain.

Thought I'd give this a try so I downloaded it from the Wii Shop and I must say I've been hugely surprised with how good it is. It's structured much more like an RPG and feels very different to other Zelda games but that is in no way a bad thing! My god it's difficult as well, you get three lives and whn you die, that's it, back to the very start!
Has anyone else given this a shot? I've managed only one dungeon so far but I'm seriously addicted to the gameplay style and challenge the game presents, it definalty has that 'one more go' feeling without being frustrating.

I think a good BMI to aim for is 20-22, seems like this is a nice weight to maintian. Just be careful, if you put on alot of muscle it could make your BMI abnormally high.
