But it's our perspective that's flawed. If the universe couldn't produce carbon, then non-carbon based life may evolve... Completely outwith our comprehension but it's a fuckload more likely than virgin birth... xx

First it's worth clarifying that being open to the idea of a generic 'grand architect' and being agnostic from the point of view of a specific religion are massively different. Whether there's a god or not, all the major religions could be (are, IMHO) utter nonsense fabricated by wealthy people, to control stupider people. Furthermore, the fact that we can't explain how life was formed means absolutely nothing. If the universe was spawned with ANY set of rules, enough time, chemical reations and genetic mutations and iterations would be very likely to eventually create some form of sentient life. Infinite monkeys and typewriters... xx

No need to apologise, I hate sleeping anyway. *scary pictures* [/ SPOILER] Only with no space after the slash. /helpful xx

that looks fucking delicious! that's TWO different kinds of blue waffle I want to taste.... xx

...spoiler tags around the demon beasties would be appreciated... *whimper* xx

Or blue waffle... xx

Flying Spaghetti Monster. xx

If you ask me (noone did, but fuck you I'm having my say) then anyone who would call themselves an 'anti-theist' gives up the right to complain about the pious ramming religion down the throats of others... If you don't believe and don't want to believe then fine but as soon as you start actively trying to convert the religious you open yourself up to the same shit IMHO. I love a religious debate as much as the next guy mind, but after a while it just boils down to the same stalemate... xx

Any of you guys read God is Not Great? I loved God Delusion but just can't get into this one for some reason and I can't put my finger on why.... xx

Open the box and there's a copy of photoshop in there though. Ace way to save a few quid. xx

I cannot believe they thought ecco the dolphin was worthy of putting on the list on the cover.... xx

A wax crayon of magical chocolatey goodness maybe! YOU TASTE LIKE A WAX CRAYON!!1 xx

FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!! xx

I have never heard any one say anything that sounds anything like any of these words... In my head it sounds like the swedish dude in Family Guy.... xx

Yeah, Fine Fare is about as far back as I go.. Wretched youth, the things I've missed out on! xx

New Restaurant Lets you Pork your Pork Heard about it from a colleague today - googled it for the link I found but there a few articles on it. Obviously there is every chance that it is some bullshit urban lengend, but I can't do a particularly thorough search as I'm at work and I don't want to spend too much time searching for restaurants where you fuck animals... Snopes or something similar might be worth a look if anyone fancies doing some research on it? xx

There is a restaurant in Japan were customers can go in, pick a live animal, fuck it, then the chefs will kill it, cook it and serve you it. My first thoughts were: I wonder what animals there are to pick from? And I wonder which is the most popular... All I can picture is the guy in Weezer's 'Buddy Holly' video saying "Please, try the fish.." xx

I'm a massive lover of maple fingerboards, and especially of 1 piece maple necks, but IMHO they only look right on bright / light / pale coloured guitars. xx

I didn't have any reciepts on mine but customer service didn't seem to require them. That was RROD mind, so xbox were automatically counting that problem as being 'their fault'.. it's worth trying though if it happens again, it's pretty plausible you'll just have to pony up the cost of a replacement disc reader and an hours labour -which can't be that much can it...? xx

Private Ambulance is an anagram of Cabaret Naive Plum. xx

The wife thinks it's tasteless, but I refer to those as 'Corpse Taxis' xx

For years growing up I thought 'getting messages' was going to the post office. Truth be told, I still don't fucking understand why it isn't. xx

Much appreciated! It's sounding like a good shout, the only thing that was swinging the X3 was the dual amping, but if it's gash then I might just give an XT a blast, if I like it then I'll grab one (second hand hopefully means if I want to dump it after the honeymoon, I could theoretically sell it for more or less what I paid..) xx

I actually thought about that last night and came on this morning to ask about something along those lines! Here's what google found (although this is comparing the floor models rather than rack mounted...): XT is $399 retail, X3 is $499 retail XT has 36 guitar amps, X3 has 76 XT has 84 stompbox and studio effects, X3 has 98 XT has no vocal preamps (or vocal input), X3 has 6 XT is USB 1.1, X3 is USB 2.0 (faster) conneciton XT can do one tone at once, X3 can blend 2 patches together XT has a smaller LCD display, X3?s is nearly double the size XT has traditional out, X3 has S/PDIF and XLR out in addition to 1/4? jacks The HD is actually a lot cheaper than I thought, but I'm a rack mounting fanboy... Not a fan of the rat's nest of cables that pedals tend to bring about, much prefer everything in a nice neat box. Plus if I'm using the thing as a preamp then I'd need to take a power amp too, so having it rackmounted just makes sense. xx
