I hate cunts.

 

Just let me be un-independant and nuzzled in England's bosom, Alex Salmond.

It doesn't really concern anyone here that much, but I walked through the area a few minutes before this happened. I came out of the building 45 minutes latter and saw police cars and tape everywhere. I'm glad it was a little bit early for my appointment.

How many proper four-wheel cars have you seen on the road that lean into a bend when cornering?

How many people give a shit?

Ejected.

It could be a sign of lack of affection at home, which would be more concerning

 

(although I've not recently crawled onto a policeman)

I'm intrigued by the concept of Bus Puss.

[Ashley]

Just get a night bus in London. You'll soon discover Bus Puss.

First 30 Rock had Tracey create a burger in which bread was replaced by meat ("Meat is the new bread!") then KFC made it real.

 

Then they made up "Cheesy Blasters", a "hot pocket-cheese-filled hot dog hybrid" and then they got made.

[EEVILMURRAY]

It is true. Bread is bullshit in a burger, especially the bread in the middle of a Big Mac. But I don't buy Big Macs because it seems half of it is shitty veg, something I don't eat.

Disgruntled gamer who sued Sony is now suing Microsoft and Nintendo.

 

He sued Sony because he was banned from playing Resistence online, claiming it infringed on the first ammendment.

Microsoft because of the stress caused by a RROD.

Nintendo for blocking the homebrew channel.

In texas, all Marriages were accidentally made illegal when they changed their constitution trying to make gay marriage illegal a few years back.

 

That was the best article I could find on the subject, but it explains it well. The Irony of it all...

[Ellmeister]

I find that one about the lawsuits hilarious. Hopefully remember to keep up with how that goes.

In essence, Nintendo is forcing customers to buy another game to unlock one character in a different game.

I don't really get what the difference is between a marriage and a civil partnership?

I tried looking it up on wikipedia (skim reading through it) and it both sounds the same, just a different name? Or am I wrong?

 

Just asking cause over here it's just all called marriage heh, there's no difference between different sex or same sex marriages.

That's the point, I think these guys are just publicity/fame hounds with nothing better to do.

 

Either that or they really mean they want this, and are therefore a danger to the rest of society if they attempt to reproduce... We're gonna need a crack team of Commandos to forestall any such disaster!

 

Select the best M.A.S.K. agents for this mission...

I'm in a "different sex" marriage, it's just the kind of things Mrs Iun and I are into, don't judge us

[danny]

That guy looks like 'gay' issues might be cose to his heart.

 

Bassically the only difference is the actual term marriage. The only reason that term is not used is to appease the large percentage of the population which do no think it is right fr 'gays' to get married. As they view it as something that should be between a man and a woman.

But the govenment needed to be able to give 'gays' the same legal rights as 'hetros'.

I myself think it was the right choice from the govenment. (i will stand by to be called all the names uner the sun for having my own view)

[jayseven]

I don't understand why you're putting 'gays' and 'heteros' in apostrophes like that.

 

Civil partnerships were introduced to give gay couples legal rights similar to that of marriage, seeing as the church(es) refused to offer teh same services. If you've been with your partner for 40 years, for example, and they kick the bucket, you have no legal right to their belongings, no legal 'next of kin' status. If you're married, you do. The government did a great thing introducing a legal equivolent for 'the gays'. These people are being ridiculous.
