    Doing my shopping in Sainsbury's. Only had a baskets worth. Went to the basket only checkout. Some genius unloading a shopping trolley load of stuff. She clearly didn't seem to give a **** either about making us all wait.

      I get that all the time with the self service checkouts. Makes me RAGE!

        We didn't get any alerts, but the quake was a bit of a heart-stopper for us in Osaka - just kept building and building, I was sure my shelves were going to topple over before it ended.

          We don't tend to feel too many earthquakes in Kyoto because it's further inland and relatively mountainous. The quake was rather weak for us, I'd almost certainly have slept through it if I hadn't been woken by the alarm.

              The increase of timewasters in the trading forum. Weeks of "i'm definitely taking item XXXXX" only for when the time comes to pay, radio silence. Muppets.

                Ugh, struggling to import a font file from my Android assets folder as I don't have access to an activity context and I'm working with a proprietary game framework from a book. When I searched Google for answers after much trying, I found the author asking a similar question. Encouraging!

                    he he

                    I was very close to reenacting the Burger King scene from Falling Down. xD

                    I use self checkout whenever possible but I had some razors with me in security boxes.

                    Don't trust the self checkout assistant to sort that for me seeing as they once refused to let me buy an 18 despite being 27, bald, and having a beard. What was she thinking? how many 17 year olds has she met who are completely bald?

                      Slow day on the forum. We need another controversial former leader to die.

                      I like it when people pay at the self checkout by slowly counting out all the change in their pockets. It counts it for you, that's the benefit, just chuck it all in ffs!

                        Haha it's because I've been away for an extended weekend in the sun and haven't been here to annoy you all

                        Back now, don't worry, will go and make some pretty bold statements somewhere now, "Platinum Games haven't made a good game since they were Clover Studios" or something...

                            South Africa, my friend is over there taking a year out to volunteer and study animal conservation before doing her masters and I'd had a really rubbish few weeks on a paediatrics ICU placement that I hadn't been prepared for, i.e. a particularly unbelievable/nasty case of abuse and a couple of hard to take deaths was emotionally taxing and put me in a "prickly" mood so by the end I decided to just get away from it and she'd said she was sick of living from a backpack so we booked into a nice Spa hotel, went nature hiking and lounged on a beach.

                            The copy of Minish Cap I'd bought on eBay and intended to play didn't work though :/ Goddamn eBay /Irk

                              I'd counter saying something equally as obnoxious. Such as saying you have no taste because of your gender. On a serious note, why don't people love Bayonetta.

                                Haha I was joking, admittedly I do love Okami and Viewtiful Joe but don't like Metal Gear Rising and think Bayonetta is a bit overrated but then I'm not a fan of the genre? Infact now I've completed Bioshock Infinite I'll probably see out the year playing nothing but first party Nintendo 3DS/Wii U/Virtual Console titles and Rayman Origins/Castle of Illusion on 360 so feel free to bash 2D Platformers and Nintendo if I step out of line for real
