Yeah when I was in Paris my boyfriend and I watched Without A Trace in French and it was an episode I'd seen so I knew what was going on but my boyfriend was just baffled.

Brilliant! I missed this the last two times it was on. I'll be sure to set the Sky+

I used Thomas's Myspace editor and found it to be very easy. And then I hung my head in shame at becoming a myspace whore.

Random photo!! Whatever happened to it. I miss the old days a lot.

That's amazing! Loads of kids got to come and have a day at the cinema for their school activities day and they got to splice and keep original cells from Bambi! I was livid, even I never get to do that.

It depends on my mood, I can't really just chill out and watch a subtitled movie because I have to concentrate more in order to know everything that's going on. The beauty of the dubbed version of Howl's Moving Castle is that it had been edited so it didn't appear to be dubbed. You could still tell, but it wasn't as obvious as other films. I don't mind dubbing in animations but it's really hard to watch dubbing in foreign films. I couldn't bear to watch Love Me If You Dare if it was dubbed.

Do you mean to say "I got pwned and now have no idea what to say so now I'll just try and be witty."?

Yes Jurassic Park is a book written by Michael Crichton which was then made into a film. I think you'll find that humans and dinosaurs were not alive at the same time. I can't believe I'm having to explain that to someone as knowledgeable and clever as yourself.

Oh arf arf you're so clever. Jurassic Park is a film based on a work of fiction. And I think you'll find it's mostly dinosaurs mauling the humans in that one. There's no way we know everything about dinosaurs. I said I wanted to see footage of dinosaurs mauling each other because it would be fascinating to see how different species really interacted with each other rather than how we presume them to act.

I already saw that on the other thread Hog! And Jurassic Park isn't real footage of dinosaurs you tit! Somebody made that all up, I fucking love dinosaurs, don't insult me!

Ace. I love watching animals killing each other because it's so interesting to see how they do it. If only there was footage of dinosaurs mauling each other to bits.

I've had a filled out provisional application form for about 3 years now which I can't seem to get round to sending off. I really want to learn how to drive, but it's so expensive and my little sister drives me everywhere so I don't much see the point. Really should get round to it though, well done!!

Valid points, perhaps I didn't make myself clear. I wasn't specifically saying that I wouldn't be surprised if someone sat on a needle in a cinema and became infected with HIV, I was saying that I wouldn't be surprised to hear about needles being put in places like that, coke machines, phone boxes, lift buttons, pedestrian crossings and wherever else fucking morons could think of to put them to scare people. Every one of those grit boxes has a needles warning on the front of it, kids manage to pick them up in the playground, take a walk down market street and you'll see more than one lying on the pavement. What I was getting at, is that there's so little respect in the UK today, I wouldn't be alarmed to hear of any of these things actually happening. If I got pricked by a needle, I'd be terrified that I might have HIV, even though I know, rationally, it's not likely. Having said all of that, this entire thread, emails about it, endless discussions, probably just gives people ideas.

I give it about an hour before this thread gets closed because we're all ageist. I forgot about my Dad's Dad though. He lives in London. He thinks it's funny to be rascist even though he'd never actually be horrible to a non white person to their face. Watches BBC News 24 all day long whenever he comes to visit "just in case something happens, i'll be the first to know", doesn't realise how unacceptable it is to talk about sex in front of his grandchildren "Holly dahhhhhling, I want condoms and viagra for Christmas" etc etc etc. I'm praying he's not coming up for xmas this year.

I don't have a car. I still got the tube every single day after the London bombings while I was still living there. And I'm not getting in a flap about anything, I was simply just saying that with all the bullshit that goes on in the UK today, I would not be at all surprised if this really did happen. Needles are all over the place in Aberdeen, we found one in the toilets in the cinema a couple of months ago. The likelyhood of getting pricked by one might be slim, and the likelyhood of getting HIV from that is even smaller. I'm not an idiot, I'm not about to start going out dressed in a protective suit. I'm just saying that with all the sick stuff that goes on these days this happening wouldn't come as a shock to me.

Yes I am aware how urban myths get started and spread. But I feel that this one is far more believable than your average "old lady put her dog in the microwave to dry him off" tittle tattle.

I deteste old people who use the "about ten items" checkout in asda when they clearly have more. Yes you bint, the small trolleys can hold ten items you fuckin idiot. Most of the time the staff are too nice and don't want to offend old ladies so they let them get away with it. What drives me nuts at work, is old people complaining about the prices and counting out their change even though they've just been in a queue for ages and have had plenty time to prepare for the inevitable transaction. Grrrrr. I once heard two ladies going on and on and on at a bus stop about how terrible it is that students get cheap tickets. WHAT THE FUCK?! They get FREE tickets?! That makes no sense. Having said that, my grandparents are lovely.

I understand that it's a myth but it does sound like the sort of sick thing you'd expect to happen in Britain today. (And I'm in no way implying that HIV sufferers are terrorists or anything.) When I was about 11 I was shopping in Basingstoke (in Hampshire) with my Mum when a man who had just discovered he had HIV slashed his wrists outside Burger King in the centre and started running at everyone trying to get blood on them. That was pretty scary. I also was told to be careful when pressing buttons in lifts because people put needles in between the buttons then break them off leaving a little bit exposed just ready to scratch some unsuspecting person. In may be a myth but if it were true, I wouldn't be surprised.

Hahaha. It's the most disgusting thing ever. I always drink vodka with lime and lemonade but ran out of lemonade the other day so just had lime and cordial, it was disgusting.

The first time I saw that I laughed so much I was in pain.

There is a much much better one of these somewhere. I'm gonna try hunt it down but those are ace too.

I love Hot Chip, but when I saw them at Reading they were so so so boring. If I've got lots of money around then I may pop along to change/confirm my new opinion.
