  1. I guess waking up covered in anthrax spores would't be a great start to the day. Or rice pudding, I hate that stuff.
  2. I've been told that a cigarette paper coated in a THIN layer of glue (maybe a light dusting of spraymount) can do the trick. never needed to try it myself though so not 100% sure.
  3. It's almost ace Yep' date=' I've seen more convincing displays of grief on Hollyoaks. Agreed, but the bit when R2 got kicked over was class. Yeah' date=' and he can fly! wtf? - I mean its pretty cool, but he needs to be lifted in and out of Luke's x-wing in the original movies. I'm not sure if there is any explanation for why he cant use the rocket thingies in the later films (Apart from the fact the effects would've looked crap in the early 80s), maybe just R2's age, but I'm sure he must have been well looked after and serviced between episodes 3 & 4. This is a really pedantic point though. I thought Anakin eventually brought the force into balance at the end of Jedi, with the death of the Emperor, himself and maybe even the Sith? Thus fulfilling the prophecy. I agree' date=' It seemed to come from nowhere. It should have been a really wild beast that ate people and Obi-wan uses the force to tame it or something cool like that. Grievous was hard as fuck in the Clone Wars series, bit of a pussy in the ep.3. Shame. I always thought the dark side had done it too him too' date=' I think it's a better explanation than him effectively doing it to himself via Mace's lightsaber. I did really enjoy the film though, it was better the 2nd time round because I knew what to expect and could relax and not analyse it too much. George had the chance to make the GREATEST movie in history, but instead he decided to make a 'quite good' one.

  4. 1.Tony Marlin is not my real name, but it's close. 2. I have 3.29 in my pocket. 3. I once had a peanut stuck in my ear for 2 hours.
  5. fantastic! mary is a total nut job. been abducted by aliens 7 times!
  6. Roberto is already a legend. so funny
  7. It's started. Every year i decide not to watch it, and every year I find myself tuning in night after night. Hope its not a bunch of total tits going into the house. We need at least one fit lady and a funny guy.
  8. wtf? How does that work? Even if it does work you would have to be really fucking stupid to try it. Maybe I could shoot lightning from my fingertips by shoving my little toe in a mains socket.
  9. Fuckin hell! Thats all I can say at the moment. Best gig I've seen a the Lemon Tree for a long time. ........Bastard!
  10. It has to be the Belmont Chipper for a 20 L&B and a red pudding supper, which should last until I get outside Thain's on George Street, where i can pick up a couple of steak pies, some day old butteries for breakfast and an Inverness edition of the P&J. I still think Amadeus had it sussed though, a sizzlers INSIDE a nightclub .
  11. Not sure when it starts but i think there might be some kind of preview of it on the new Freakin Sweet Collection DVD, its all old episodes though.
  12. What happened to the guy who was singing opera for cash on Belmont St and outsinde John Lewis' around christmas time? He really irritated me. can't remember why. I think he had a crap voice.
  13. I once got my whole school the day off. I'm sure I've told this story on here before, but here it is again; One wintery day every school in the area was closed, except mine. I was none too happy about this, so I called Moray Firth Radio, told them I was the assistant rector and the school was shut. The announcement went out over the airwaves that my school was now closed. About ten minutes later they said it wasn't shut, but it was too late. very few people went to school that day, and anyone who wasn't there didn't need a note or anything. Although most of the teachers found out it was me I was never given any punishment. probably because of lack of proof or they were just glad of the peace and quiet for a day.
  14. "Youve never had a lager, gin and tonic and Baileys Irish Cream chaser?" "No." "You big girls bras!" "Has it got a name, that drink?" "Yeah, theyre called, errr, Ladyboys"
  15. Please do. I missed it this morning:sleeping: , and cant watch the repeat on ITV2.
  16. 1. Do you know who "Dolby" are? Yes. 2. Do you know who "DTS" are? Yes. 3. Do you have a surround sound system at home (5.1, 6.1)? Yes, 5.1. 4. Would you consider upgrading to a 5.1 or 6.1 surround sound system or upgrading to a better model? No. 5. Do you have the ability to play DTS encoded discs? Yes. 6. In general, rate Dolby 5.1 encoded discs from 1-5 (1 = poor, 5 = excellent). 4 7. In general, rate DTS 5.1 encoded discs from 1-5 (1 = poor, 5 = excellent). 4 8. Which do you think is superior - Dolby or DTS? My surround sound speakers cheap and crappy, so there is no noticeable difference between Dolby and DTS. I'm led to believe DTS is better quality, but is supported by fewer players 9. Do you think that surround sound systems are currently cheap, reasonable or expensive? All three. In general you get what you pay for. A cheap 50 system is going to sound far worse than a reasonable 200 System, and an expensive 1500 will sound even better. 10. In general, rate the audio quality of music through a portable device via headphones (MP3, mindisc etc) from 1-5 (1 = poor, 5 = excellent). This depends entirely on the quality of the equipment used. 11. Which do you think is superior - music through home entertainment system (hi-fi, DVD player etc) or music through portable device (MP3, mindisc etc)? Again this depends on the quality of the equipment. Generally, any system with a separate amplifier (hi-fi separates) should sound better than a system with a built in amp (portable or personal hi-fi) 12. Rate the follwing idea from 1-5 (1 = poor, 5 = excellent): A portable device that generates rhythmic vibrations in time with the music. It would be stored inside a rucksack. In other words, if you were to walk and listen to your MP3, you would essentially 'feel' the audio against your back or front (depending on how you wore your rucksack). Music should be experienced through your ears, feeling it through your body may be a bit uncomfortable or unnatural. Although this idea could find a use in movies, to 'feel' the force of an explosion etc, or in computer games like a rumblepack. 13. What would be a fair price for such a device: 40 or less, 40-60, 60 or more. Depends on the quality of the experience, at a guess I'd say around 50 would be a fair price.
  17. o_O o_O o_O Please tell me this is photoshopped or something, otherwise i'm going to have some serious nighmares about this kid.
  18. Or fire two of them in opposite directions at the same time, could be a tad impractical though.
  19. Your right there, the three wheeled ones are never called trike-bikes. That would be silly. You could call them quikes.I think this term that should be used on this thread from now on...
  20. I used the word sambo meaning sandwich, there is certainly no racist intent. I didn't even realise this was an offensive word until I Google'd it just now, I've used it and heard it used many times just as a shortening of the word sandwich. In any case, I apologise if I have offended anyone.
  21. I'm not too sure how it happened, I'll have to ask my mum. All I really remember is being in severe pain and riding in the ambulance. Come to think of it, my other eardrum was burst a few years ago when my 'mate' clouted me on the side of the head
