  1. Hes pointing out how ridiculous this thread is.

    Can I have an example of a non-ridiculous thread? What's more ridiculous: The thread or you replying to the ridiculous thread? Who is arrogant enough to decide what is ridiculous or not anyway?

    How many threads involve hackneyed cliches and truisms being rolled out ad infinitum? Or back slapping? Or back stabbing?

  2. Eternal afterlife?

    Well, I know a lot of people think that death being the end is scary but I think an eternal afterlife is a pretty scary concept too. Just on and on and on... I've thought about it before, always ends up with a strange sensation in my head. So I just enjoy what I do know which is that I am here now.

    Quite liked the DVD idea hahaha, I'd love to observe moments from my own life... not in a regretful way but I think it would be interesting.

  3. Is it me or is Hogmanay the most overrated, hyped up night of the year? I can't think of another night which is given so much attention for no good reason.

    The best nights out are almost always the ones which happen spontaneously or when you least expect it. I think that's half the problem with Hogmanay. It gets built up so much that nobody wants to admit that maybe, just maybe, they aren't actually having that great a night after all. Days of preparation all to culminate in a lousy countdown to midnight followed by a shambolic rendition of Auld Lang Syne and of course everyone knows all the words to that past the first verse.... ahem.

    The finest example of the Hogmanay fizzle was in 1999 when it was joined by an even greater hype - the millennium. Yes, this time the world was going to end as planes would fall out of the sky and computers would spontaneously and inadvertantly start WWIII. Except none of this happened. Still, nice countdown though...
