NZ hip hop and other music
Well i went to New Zealand at Chrsitmas 2004, and at the time i listened to rap quite alot, and was suprised to see quite alot of talent. I liked the misfits of science, apparently they came from around the area i stayed (a bit north of Auckland I think) and i have a 'Scribe' CD in my collection that i really like, but that is more rap than hip hop.

Ze Arctic Monkeys
Rofl 'chav-rock', I love it. :lol: No offence to them, but the only song i heard of theirs was, 'I bet you look good on the dance-floor' and that song just does not appeal to me. I'm all for trying music, but i really have something against these bands that make a kind of cop-out song like this, and then expect me to buy the album. All being said however, I may as borrow my friends copy. :oops:

Workout Music!!
Back when I used to run, my weapons of choice were -Til' I collapse - Eminem (really pushses your stamina to the limit, invokes the 'I haven't collapsed of exhaustion therefore i must not be working hard enough' mind set.) - Numb/encore - Jay-Z Linkin Park (amazing running song, the kind of synthesised violins REALLY energise you, its amazing.) - Roll Call - Lil Jon (kind of gets you ready to either fight (used to listen to it before Sunday League Football 8)) or push yourself to the limit) And I'm serioulsy thinking about getting my college mates to send me some music from Atl's list, and just go for a run, with no checking it out before. I imagine music like that would really make me go crazy and kind of keep my adrenaline pumping, even though i dispise most metal ( I assume it is metal, I'm a rock-n33b)

I'm learning Esperrrranto! o.o
It's amazing. I went to Paris last year, and being able to speak and understand a fair amount of french, was able to relay the order of my families dinner to a french waiter. That went without difficulties, and then a spanish couple walked in (I speak a bit of spanish too), and when they went to order, realising their french inadequacies, both the waiter and the spanish couple reverted to english in an attempt to meet in common ground. I was astounded that two groups from different countries would speak in a language which neither of them benfitted enitrely (they weren't particularly good at english).

Debug mode on fourm?
I get the same, but have no idea what it is. My posts are unaffected by it.

Swearing. Eh?
Because thats what tourettes is,when you shout out swaer words. Okay, it's been said that I'm wrong, I went with the common mis-conception. But in any case what i was getting at was the link between biology and sociology. As has been covered, swear words are moral-relative. They are not natural, The first people on the earth didn't have swear words. So where does biology and sociology cross over?

Futurama or the simpsons?
Lol yeah, or Family Guy vs American Dad.... Or The Office and Extras.... Thats if you know what shows they are lol. I do, but i kinda disagree. Extra's was really an offshoot of The Office, and they dont really compete.

Human nature is inquisitive and testing of our surroundings, we will never stop striving to better our techonology.

Do You Like Ninjas?!?! (Funny Ninja Website)
I really can take them, or leave them. But more importantly, it is great fun to make a ninja hood out of a t-shirt, I recommend it to anyone.

how to pronounce "route"
I'm always on at my friends (granted we're from Essex) at using the word 'like'. They find it impossible to describe something without using the word 'like'. And im not exaggerating, i actually challenged my friend to have a conversation with me without using the word, so i asked him to describe his bedroom, which he did, then i started asking him to go into more depth and he couldn't stop himself saying it. I would say that it depends on were you come from in England though, because Essex'ers don't use 'like' in the same context as Liverpudlians.

Pokemon ...
What a strange coincidence, me and my friends were talking about all the crazes we went through, and of course, pokemon came up! In fact, looking back on it, we decided that we should all start playing again, and have a race to complete either red or blue. 8)

The Greatest 200 VideoGames of their Time. Why Nintendo >
Nope "10. Pong , Arcade ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãââ 1972" And are those Mario games really that good? Surely they must get repetitive, I've only played a few and granted those were great, but so many in the top 30? :shock:

Swearing. Eh?
My thought is why do people with Tourette's Syndrome always shout out swear words? As stevester said, swear words are not natural, they are socially constructed, so why do they go hand in hand with a medical illness like tourettes?

Lost
I absolutely love the show, so much so that the fact that i live in England does not stop me from watching the same episodes as and when they are out in America. Although it's been such a longtime since the last episode i can hardly remember were we are up to. I don't really want to start a discussion about any certain events because of the Englsih user's, but i really feel the second series is good and gives alot more depth and meaning to the show. I just wonder how many series they will produce.

If they are going to update its going to be tomorrow.

*~Coping With Runescape-Addiction~*
Well written, and courageous intent. I don't have the problem with playing but during my last year at school my exam study time came under heavy fire. The only thing i can say is, you can get your Comabt up anytime, but theres only once that you can take your GCSE's (last mandatory exams in the UK).

DPA In relation to account details
It would not surprise me if Andrew Gower didn't know too much about DPA himself, but that he just seeks legal advice when and if neccessary. I beleive Phil is right about the fact that you have to pay to see the information held, i learnt this training for my job (Mobile Phone Insurance) and we have to take FSA tests (Financial Services Authority) which governs and underwrites our insurance, and we have to know a fair bit about insurance concepts etc. All i know is that we are not aloud to delete any memo's placed on our customer database, and not to include opnions because they are aloud to request it, and its big trouble if we write something that isn't fact or relevant because it can be considered slander. In relation to this query i would say that he probably isn't obliged to tell you if you have had any reports filed because you are not your character. Jagex provide you with login information but you don't own anything, the accounts belong to jagex, end of story really. The fact that you might pay for membership is also irrelevant, before someone brings that up. :P

against autoers? mark them!
Does the gnomeball impede them in any way? Or is it just to mark them out? Either way, its a great idea and hopefully Jagex can bear it in mind. However i'm not suggesting Jagex ban anyone with a gnomeball, because it's a legitimate item, but if we set the trend it may be an informal Auto'ing alert.

Whats the big deal about getting "Drunk"?
I don't think I ever said that I don't drink at all; I did a quick search and didn't find anything. I might have a glass of wine here or there, I've yet to try beer because it smells horrible to me :P, but I'm not opposed to a pint here or there, I just am very much opposed to the whole drunk party scene. A pint to relax you? Sure, but enough to completely botch your judgment? Not cool imo. Really sorry, I meant Weezcake! The reason I said you was becasue you had posted in the topic as well!
