      Apple make their money from hardware, Microsoft make their money from software. That's why Apple sell their software cheap and with little to no copy protection. You already paid for it with your Mac.

        My past self has really screwed over my future self by not keeping a whole bunch of files organised that I now need. Why?! Why did my younger self do that to me?!

        If only I could go back in time and warn myself.

          Uuugh, was modding my TE with an LS-32-01 and a small nut that is used to secure one of the bolts on the top just fell off inside the stick because it was just glued on. No idea of how to go about fixing it at the moment and I really can't be bothered with opening it all back up again today. I'll let this be a reminder to stick with Hori from now on.

            Star walks tightrope for Comic Relief! OMG! WOW!



            I'm in more danger walking down the street.

              Those blummin' Virgin Media adverts with the spoken word version of 'Our House' by Madness. Do advertisers not want me to buy anything these days? On the verge of being on the blacklist along with Nat West.

                Remind me again... why is tightrope walking funny? Isn't comic relief supposed to make us laugh?

                Comic relief irks me. The forced "you've got to do something silly" aspect (nothing like seeing supermarket workers in rubbish fancy dress having the last remaining traces of their soul being sucked out).

                Comedians doing B-material that never gets close to being edgy as their proper stand-up, even after watershed. Special comedy editions of programs split into two halves over an hour apart that feel like they were written by an intern in their lunch break...

                  Rustlers. "0 to Tasty in Seconds". Bar the mediocre included sauces, Quorn provides more flavour.

                  God knows why I keep on buying them.

                      I didn't read it properly the first time and thought it said Star Wars. She can chew my Wookie any time.

                          Done that earlier while re writing a paragraph of my CV. Was furious! Why are the c and v keys right next to each other dammit!

                            Imagine the days before Undo. Imagine mixing Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V back then. Flippin' heck.

                              Because they are 0 to "eating something warm that satiates the desire for instant food".
                              If it tasted of something, chances are it would probably taste pretty nasty, thus forcing you not to buy it again, if it tastes of very little, chances are you won't have any negative emotion attached with said take away snack and you are then more likely to buy it, suppose someone at Rustlers thought that, if not I'm just being cynical
