I'm getting that way! There was a joke on there the other day about it - literally saying how slowly you are becoming suspicious of other stereotyes, become more accepting of crime and wonder why your girlfriend/wife is not making a sandwich for you whilst you read this...*
Most jokes are completely awful, but then there are a few that I can't help but laugh at
* Not the views of myself nor freeola...just stating that as we aren't as disturbed as the submitters to that site...
On a brighter note, that Charizard shiny I originally listed for 50p has now reached £8.00. Feel kinda bad for selling it for more than that as I was literally going to chuck it. Similarly, feel pretty bad as it has a crease through the centre and a chip in the border. I've stated it in the description and the picture shows it, but at the same time feel bad for letting it go at that price :/ Still has another 36 hours to go...

I hate that bloke more than you can imagine. I have no idea why.

Really? I find it the opposite. Sickipedia is altering to the way I think!

Didn't say that, most northerners are ok. Just a few ruin it for the rest of you :) I just found the whole reverse stereotyping funny!

Morning chaps and chappettes,
Doinf a little dance as started selling on eBay and the Pokemon card I put up for sale is now 6 times what I listed it for. It's exciting watching people fight over a trading card I no longer need (or particularly want for that matter)! :p

Haha, nah - I think they deserved the promotion in all fairness. Stuck 6 passed us this season, so can't really complain. Would have liked a win to end the season, but we weren't good enough.
Still, Leeds fans travel from all over - so had loads of them hurtling abuse at us on the way back on the motorway. Interestingly, when you are absorbed in watching a film on your iPod, my only thought about it was "You still going on about that???"

Tick tock. Time to work again.
Nearly missed the bus this morning, but got their just in time.
Only the 3rd person in the office today, better than the other day when i was first in and everything was dark. Luckily we have those motion sensitive lights that go on when you walk under them.
Got £4 CEX credit for a pair of old Singstar Microphones yesterday but need to look at selling something else to get anything. They've got X-men Wolverine Blu-ray in store at the moment but not sure whether to bother with it.

Gadget show was very entertaining this week. Pretty much become Top Gear but for Tech instead of cars.
@pb: They clearly don't like you mate, maybe you ran over the CEOs dog in a former life?
@HM: As soon as I heard 'pitch invasion at Elland Road' I was excitedly waiting for TV images of you hurling abuse, over a line of rozzers, at those Northern monkeys.
On a related note, anybody see the images of the Hull fan that tried to nick Stevie G's captains armband yesterday? Funny stuff, also ironic seeing a scouser being on the receiving end of theft.

I shall repeat my call that GAME online are a bunch of useless idiots who can't run a game retail website for toffee.
Yet again I get an order rejected because 'it won't accept my card details', ordered something at the end of the last week with no problems on the same card and have used the card for other things since. Tried another card, exactly the same thing, tried getting someone else to order for me, exactly the same thing.
Just get 'phone this number for assistance', that's if you call getting someone who can't help and just says the equivalent of 'computer says no' assistance?!
Sorry, rant over.

Great review pb - it is good fun and I do like the fact that you can choose what difficulty to pick when starting a level. oh and the fact weapons transfer across along with any armour. It's brilliant.
I can remember seeing this when I worked in Game and thinking it looked awful - "B-Movie" game, I recall calling it - but with the poor graphics and basic looking videos the first opinion was bound to be poor! How wrong was I?
