Speaking of which...

@ReZourceman Did you get your free police helicopter though?

Keep it. The manufacturing cost of a single set is likely to be less than a quarter of the retail price.

Fair enough, as long as we agree that religious nutjobs and self-satisfied atheists can be equally annoying.

Oh mighty Silhouette Cat, who died for our tins (of Whiskas) and who gaveth of his life that we might live(r and chicken flavoured treats)!

I'm going to have to respectfully disagree: having arrogant members who superciliously claim to have "got it" and treating people who "haven't got it" as children is a valid comparison. While there is no comparison between the belief and non-belief system, there's a comparison to be made between the people within it.

Oh my word, THIS. It's as if these atheists are somehow privy to some amazing secret of the universe that the rest of the universe hasn't worked out yet. And boy oh BOY are they smug about it. Now, who the fuck does that sound like to you?

I'm sorry... for some reason I just thought of the following: "It's like a good Chinese dinner, with the sweet and the sour... expanding on that analogy, I will smile with delight - that's the sweet, as you beg for your fucking life. Of course, that's the sour." I actually enjoy the pacing of TWD, the narrative can be a bit off at times, and there are characters I just don't like. But it's head and shoulders above most things on TV. Anyway, I think it's wisest to compare within a genre, and Walking Dead pretty much... owns the genre. There's nothing else on TV quite like it. For example, if you were to talk Sci-Fi it would look something like this: Premiership: BSG Season 1, 2 (first half) 3 (first half) 4(mid-end), DS9 Season 5 (Ep10 -end) Season 6 (6-episode beginning story arc) Championship: Stargate SG1 (until O'Neill left), TNG. Terminator SCC. Parts of DS9 and BSG. League 1: Stargate Atlantis, Andromeda, Blue Square Bet Premier: Voyager, Enterprise, Stargate Universe.

A bit of context: the "Pearl Tower" (or as I like to call it, Shanghai's Penis) side of the river is an area known as Pudong - it was almost completely undeveloped farmland close to the sea for years. I've been up to the top of the Giant Bottle Opener, it's truly... boredom inspiring.

Mmm.... Anyhow: My 7's team had a practice match yesterday and we won 4-2! Very pleasing result considering it was only our second game playing together.

I already speak English, Chinese, French, German and Italian, so I'm good, to be honest. I'd like to brush up on my Japanese though, and Korean as well. We have a lot of Japanese and Korean students and I can only give them extremely basic responses to their questions. Oh yeah, and my Dutch reading is very rusty. If there's a Rosetta Stone program I can probably get it for pennies here, but I really doubt that there is one. EDIT: There is one, but I can't find it on Taobao. Sorry...

That's when I arrived. And then things got even worse.

June 14th... too long to wait. Never mind though, sure I can manage somehow. Interesting fact: I reviewed all versions of Animal Crossing - GC, DS, Wii, for the website. And my favourite was definitely Wild World.

I'd be worried about (a) men hanging around for a glimpse of minge and (b) Women hanging around inside the cubicles for hours. But this is irrelevant, seeing as I never poop in public places. Except that one time Oliver Cromwell's Grave. Bastard cancelled Christmas.

They're clearly lezzing it up.

Perhaps most famous for "The Good Life", actor Richard Briers has died age 79. I will remember him most for his voice work in Watership Down. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-21498077

Terrible news, man. Cancer is an awful way to go.

If I could, I'd have you arrested, fisted with a prop shaped like Krystal, beaten, fisted again with the Krystal prop only sideways this time, beaten a LOT more, rolled in salt, smeared in lemon juice, hogtied and left in the middle of the M25 with a pair of old socks stuffed in your mouth and a sign round your neck saying "EXPAND HEATHROW NOW!".

"@Phube and @danny, sitting in a tree K.I.S.S.I.N.G! First comes love, then come marriage, then come the Stamper Brothers with a glossily packaged pile of shit that has all the originality and verve of a lift-music version of the 'Ode to Joy' and turns the awesome Starfox Universe into a type of 'My First Zelda'. And a baby carriage. "

I'd like to believe. I want to believe. But then, I believed in Starfox Adventures. I believed that Timesplitters 4 would see the light of day. I believed The Conduit would be great. ...I've just run out of belief, guys...

Agreed. I had some fragrant Indian rice yesterday that was just wonderfully - delicately spiced and just bursting with a variety of flavours. I had a Sichuanese bullfrog dish once, and I was incapable of eating more than a spoonful of the sauce. Neither was anyone else. But they all thought it was HILARIOUS that we had wasted 200 RMB (£20) on a big bowl of shit that no-one could eat.

What is the goddamn point of making food painful? If people like eating painful food, I suggest they eat a hedgehog. Ass first.
