  1. Depends what you mean by invonvenient. I liked making sure they knew who I was and being a bit of an awkward beggar, but I wasn't going to suddenly put my hand up in the middle of double maths and start trying to smash the system, no.
  2. Polarisation, I think. You'd get more people claiming they're braver these days but also more people claiming they're daft because they know what they're getting themselves into.
  3. Basically as long as it's not Leazes' prize-fighter teenage daughter, I reckon you're fine.
  4. Aye I've said for ages that a burrito shop in the town would make a killing. The way they roll them up in foil when you take them away makes them perfect hand-warmers for cold nights out too. This is where a proper (i.e. not actually authentic but good) (i.e. German) kebab shop would be ideal too. Döner dürüm - a kebab wrap that actually tastes of something and doesn't fall apart when you try to eat it? Yes please. The kebabs here are in a different league. Whatever, we won the war. We won the battle. They won the kebab war.
  5. Bastid. Me and the fella have Parky's ideal age gap () and we've been together since I was 26 and he was 19, so it's not like it can't work. And aye I know there's a difference when it's us lot, but I reckon that part of the mechanism is pretty similar really.

  7. I think it'd be reasonable to say that during WW2 the majority of people saw the armed forces as "us" whereas now the majority of people see the armed forces as "them".
  8. Born on 11th September 2001 apparently. A tragic life from start to finish That stat is such an irrelevance. Really though. Terribly sorry for the poor lass, it's a horrible case and I hope the nutter responsible is brought to justice, but does that mean anyone born on 6 August 1945 (say) had a tragic start to their life too?
  9. A largely incoherent delusional fantasist? Surely not...
  10. Aye but if you pick, it'd be Wizard of Oz/Annie/Birdcage and Pruscilla: Queen of the Desert, wouldn't it! You're trying my patience, boy. Nah, I'd likely bring along something like L.I.E. or Mysterious Skin, just for the party atmosfear.
  11. Movie night definitely, but are you fuck getting sole film-picking rights. There'll be spunk in the tzatziki, I tell you.
  12. Not quite megablockbuster level, but some of the big-name DVDs I've bought over the years and still never watched include Withnail & I, The Big Lebowski, Amadeus (saw it when I was a bairn, admittedly), Get Carter, Day of the Jackal, Kill Bill... hell, even West Side Story. Utter shambles basically.
  13. Kindly never usher me unknowingly into a Rob W thread ever again. Cross-pollution is close to inevitable, sadly.
  14. Aye he was alright. Even when he wasn't. Alex first made a habit of calling him Patrockles IIRC. Searching for it then took me to this: http://www.toontastic.net/board/index.php?...st&p=366484

    Drink driving

    Mind, I don't know if it's just London but there's some bloody awful drivers around these days, sober or otherwise. I've lost count of the number of dunches, knocked-over traffic bollards, people running red lights and all at the junction by my place, there's something almost every time I pass by. Scary enough as a pedestrian never mind having to share a road with them
  16. Of the ones mentioned so far, the Godfather series, Platoon, Apocalypse Now, the second and third LOTR films, Harry Potters 3-7, Scarface, Matrices 2 and 3, any Spiderman or other comic remakes including the Dark Knight, all James Bond films (other than the odd 10-20 minutes here and there), Blade Runner... suffice to say I'll be calling on someone from the film thread on here as a phone-a-friend if I ever get on Millionaire or something.
  17. Well I'm one for Gemmill. Ain't it too too bad?
  18. It's because he actually thinks he's winning. You'd think as a Liverpool fan he'd be used to failure by now.
  19. Owen on, Fergie confident of victory.

    Drink driving

    Did it once, shortly after I passed my test. Just shuttling a friend home, 5-10 minutes there and back, but that's no excuse. Anyway, the extent to which I could tell my reactions were dulled was enough to put me off ever doing it again, thankfully.
  21. Canny open game this so far.
