It must be boring as hell doing nothing at the airport. You could use this as a chance to meet people. Go and talk to randomers. Engage and eye contact and wait for someone to talk to you. Or, you can play the anti-version of that, where you try to freak out as many people as possible. Either are fun. What I'd do is watch people go by and make up stories for them. So, you look at them and you imagine what their life is like, where they're from, etc. If you combine that last game with the first one, you can make it into another game where you pretend you know them, then actually talk to them, therefore working out whether you were correct or not with your prediction. Ooooh! Also, you could suddenly start talking to people and pretend that you've known them for a very, very long time. You'll have massive fun with that one.

Birthday parties at my house are laaaaame. It usually consists of the bastard Auntie coming over, who I don't like too much. Then, my sister and her army of kids come around as well, and I don't get on too well with her these days. Parties and going out with friends for your birthday however is so much better. As for anniversaries, as the Ine says, it's definitely to sort something out, as our anniversary falls on September 9th. So, I'm working that day and she's been back at Uni for then. We've also not celebrated my birthday together, in the time we've been together, again due to it being in January. Basically, if our anniversary was in Summer, or December, it would be easier to celebrate.

Holy sheeet. That's a great idea!

They do. But, it's quite easy for them to miss a thread, since there's quite a few active ones at the moment. PMing them is the way to get their attention and its what people should be doing anyway.

Aye. Imagine if this was directed by Ridley Scott. Could have been right up there with Blade Runner.

Has anyone PMed a mod, though? If they wanted it ripped, they should be sending a PM asking to do so. It'll get done quicker that way.

Guys, it's Nightwolf's thread, and she has clearly said that she wants you all to shut the fuck up.

I used to download maps and mods for AvP2 on the PC years back, and that was brilliant. It was free, fan-made, and it was clear that it was just an "extra." You didn't need to download this stuff to play the regular game online. I think the idea of downloading patches to fix things that shouldn't even be present in a finished and polished game is ridiculous. If we begin to accept this as the norm, then it'll just lead to games being released half finished with the mindset that "It's ok, we can patch it later." Where will this end? I do think that it can prolong the lifespan of games, though. It certainly prolonged the lifespan for Avp2, as fans were creating mods and maps and character re-skins for that for years after its release. I like that. That kind of DLC should be encouraged.

VaJayJay, I have to massively disagree with you about the club scene. I loved every second of it. Also, Zoos/Zeus/Zuse was one of my favourite characters in the film, aaahahah. He was David Bowie's digital representation. I challenge you to a disc battle.

You stole my moves!

Surely she could just send out any old bit of chicken, or just dip some chicken in another bit of soup and pass that off as the one she found. There's not really a way to tell that she's lying or not.

Hahaha. Well played, Gooner.

SEGA, stop all this foreplay and give us our Dreamcast 2.

Hahahahahha. Herpes of the eyes. On another note, I do definitely agree with McVittee about the "circles" comment. I find that I'm hardly ever drinking anymore. I can probably count on one hand the amount of pints I've had since August, and that's only because I was at the pub watching the footie. I've reverted back to my coke state.

Yeah. They took weed and now they're fucked up.

That's brilliant. Electric atmosphere. Maybe they didn't react because that sort of atmosphere is expected there? Quite intimidating. Great stuff. I'd fucking love to play in a game like that.

Happy Birthday, Mr Colchester United.

To me, success can be many different things, but I like to think that there's short term success and then long term success. For example, last year, I gave myself a list of goals that I wanted to reach by the same point next year. They were: - To get a full time teaching job - To move out of my parent's home (I moved back in August after finishing uni) - To get out of Newport/PooPort if I could - To get a car - To get out of my overdraft I achieved all of those, so it was a successful year for me. Although I am now back in the overdraft after buying the car...sheeeet. It might not seem like the most exciting goals, but that's what I want to achieve. I want stability and I think in order for me to achieve "the best times" I need to get the basic stuff right first. I'd love to be able to take Ine to a part of the world that she or I have never been to before, or be able to buy a telescope that we can use so that we can see the stars, but right now we can't achieve those goals without doing all this other stuff first.

You've fallen into the trap of caring too much about what others think. You're living your life and they're living theirs. So, live it how you want to do it. I think you're also forgetting a little bit that men have a role to play in this as well. It's not solely down to the women to have kids. It's not like they're locked in a cupboard and pop out down the line with a kid (No Fritzel jokes, ReZ). Many blokes play an active role in the upbringing of their kids, which is how it should be. Yes, women are built to actually have the kids, there's not a lot that blokes can do about that. Maybe it's that viewpoint that is bothering you too, that it's "all" down to the women?

That's the best thing I've ever read from you.

I don't want headphones. I don't care how good the quality is. I'm quite funny about this for the same reason that I don't like hearing music on buses unless everybody else can hear it (through a radio or something). I like to hear sounds that fill the room, so natural sounds, but also additional sounds. I don't want to hear "just the music" because to me that can be quite artificial. For this reason, I love hearing the sounds when I'm driving my car, hearing the engine, the sound of the cars passing by, the wind, the heating system, the radio in the background. I want that. To me, if I hear something through the headphones, although it is personal I do feel cut off from my surroundings. Like in the gym. I can't have headphones because I like to hear the sounds of weights clattering to the ground, etc.

I think this part is very important. You are 20. I'm 23, and even though I work with kids, I'm in no way ready or in that right place to start a family. In ten or so years time, your opinion might change on that. There's nothing wrong with that. I don't think there's a problem in not wanting that stuff right now. You're young and there's probably a million and one other things that you want to do with your life rather than start a family. It also depends if you're a very family orientated person, I guess. It is an awful lot of responsibility having children and having a family of your own. You have to put yourself second and them first. That's an incredibly selfless thing to do and children are forever. Once you have them, they're there for the rest of your life. Are you ready for that right now? Probably not. Neither are lots of people.
