You have to wonder if the following comments, left on the Daily Fail's website, are jokes or actually serious

My own sons obsession with his PS3 led to serious serious outbursts and borderline rampages as he became fixated and nearly obssessive compulsive. Rages, temper tantrums, not getting washed,refusing to eat, being insulant to his mum etc. Then it broke ( mysteriously and accidentally I assure you) and within 48 hours our loving, happy, hygienic, pleasant wonderful son was restored to us.

Yeah, I beleive you. No really, I do. I'm also the pope.

We must stop Video Games from Destroying our Society before it is Too Late.

I really do think this one is a joke, but if not...You know what really "Destroys" our society? I'll tell you - ignorance.

I stopped reading the Fail years ago entirely because of stories like this. At one time, I used to get extremely angry at some of the sheer stupidity on display in such tabloids and their comments. Thankfully, now I have 'seen it all before', and such stories simply laugh out loud. I really don't know who they think the'yre fooling though.

That story is incredibly disturbing.

Find it quite fitting to say that my Xbox has 7 followers with 4 hours left on eBay. Hoping it's going to be a last minute auction. Knowing my luck, it won't sell at all.


Just a whole lot easier to take it on to CEX or Gamestation and get trade in.

Show Spoiler


I'm fairly sure they won't add the comment I just sent in

"I killed my mum with a rusty spoon when she failed to properly season my dinner. I have since come to the conclusion that I may have overreacted but really, how difficult is it to remember salt and pepper? I'm now leading a campaign against the evils of unsalted food, which I'm quite sure will eventually lead to the downfall of society."

Morning,

got an election campaign to prepare for. The management have decided that after the scathing results of the employee survey that we should have a Focus Group to see how things can be improved. I've put my name forward so I now need to work on getting some supporters. So far I'm the only candidate from our section so it's not like I have much competition yet.

so I tried out their Bacon sandwich thing. Well, I say bacon, but I'm sure the stuff in that bread couldn't ever pass as bacon...

Ha! I've had similar experiences myself with Subway, but nothing as bad as those Ginster's Pasties though - *vomit*

In other news, I'm debating whether or not to go to this "MCM Midlands Expo" tommorow in Telford. I've never been to Telford and on google maps it looks....well....

Anyway, the convention promises demo pods of the 3DS which is the main reason I might decide to take the plunge. Anybody been to this show before? It's at the "International Centre" apparently. it doesn't look too bad to find, just not sure if I'm up for the hassle of the roads.

Dragonlance,looks like your friend Mr.Zanotti has managed to get himself a decent bike for this season.Last years EVO championship was won by a guy on one of these.Just thought I'd mention it.

Mornin pete,

Thanks for info, but not seen him for a while except heard from his 'sister's partner' that he was getting 'ready' for the new season...not that this made them very happy, because he is supposed to 'do his share' in the family business and isn't :¬(

Morning.

Yep, Social Network looks good. It's on Sony's online rental service, Qriocity, so might take a look as I've still got credit for that.

Pretty good service too, no fees just paying when you want to watch and on Bravia TVs and Blu-ray players (like my 370). Much better than the crappy Lovefilm online service.

Anyway, reminded myself why I never go to Subway this morning. Had a voucher for a free breakfast when I bought a drink so I tried out their Bacon sandwich thing. Well, I say bacon, but I'm sure the stuff in that bread couldn't ever pass as bacon...

Morning everyone,

Might rent Social Network over the weekend if I get time,I'm not a Facebook user but I am quite interested in the business aspect of the story,anyone on here seen it?


I saw it with a friend not so long back. I thought it was OK but not really my thing, most probably because I am not a fan of Facebook nor Mark Zuckerberg. But apart from that, it was a fairly OK movie. You may enjoy it!
