7.5 tonne lorries (and above, including HGVs) are speed limited. So if one of them is going at 56mph, the other one can only go 57mph max. Makes it hard to overtake.

I over-analyse everything. Occasionally leading to 'analysis paralysis', which sometimes makes an abrupt end to conversation. I stutter very badly. Almost any sentence that begins with 'how', 'who', 'when', 'where' or 'why' (but not which, oddly enough) will make me stutter. This only really happens when I think about it. In conversation it is less prominent.

When people constantly say that something is better than something else, which is entirely subjective. For instance, McDonalds vs KFC. Some prefer McDonalds, some prefer KFC. Saying that one is awesome is fine, as you're not directly stating superiority. Saying that one is better is not, because this is directly stating superiority over an entirely subjective matter. I didn't choose the best example, but I think you get the gist of it.

Double negatives/multiple negation e.g. I didn't do nothing. Ain't. It's not a word. Using the wrong words to construct a question. For instance, say you are asking where a certain product is in a large shop (let's take Boots as an example) and ask a customer assistant 'Do you know where [insert product here] is?'. Well, it's their job to know where items are. It's like asking a car manufacturer if they know how powerful the engine in one of their cars is. A better way to ask would be: 'Could you show me where [insert item here] is?'.

I've actually found a new contender for worst taste ever. Mountain Dew Energy (UK version. I assume it's the same as the US one though). I would describe the taste as 'sour antifreeze'. It is literally chemicals. Lucozade energy shots aren't the nicest things, but the point is that you only have to do a shot. With this stuff, you have to drink the bottle, which is very counter-productive.

Indian Tonic water when not mixed with another drink is pretty foul.

I think that 'lol' shows an accelerated version of language degradation. I find it stupid when someone says: 'lol' near me or to me. It sounds stupid, and is stupid. The whole point of 'lol' is to show (or mislead to the same effect) that it made you laugh. Therefore, 'lol' is not a necessary word in spoken language, since body language is able to communicate what 'lol' is intended for. I don't mind it online or through texts, because it gives some kind of feedback (whether sardonic, sarcasm or true) about the message that I previously sent, whilst 'lol' when spoken is pointless, as I can see if you actually found it funny or not.

If you did it in Photoshop you can mass convert images through File -> Scripts -> Image Processor, but I guess that you might not have Photoshop. I like it, but it feels like it's missing something. I'm not sure exactly what, but I think it needs a point of focus on the left hand side as well. Nadril, .ARW is Sony's RAW format.

I'd recommend buying a small but fast SSD (40gigs would be enough) and moving Windows over to that, and using the 1TB hard drive for storage. But I guess you already knew that :P EDIT: Just read the other posts, and now I feel like an idiot. Oh well.

Do your speakers have an output to headphones?

I'd recommend either Oak larders or Oak doors.

Seeing as how this site predates Sumer by more than Sumer predates us, I'd say it is pretty significant. I highly doubt that they will find anything truly revolutionary (besides the fact that this is the earliest example of proper human construction).

Does 'Mansion' count as a rare name?

I could drive down one road and be pretty much at the event. Shame really.

I don't condone this in any way shape or form, but Japanese Knotweed would get you some effective results fast.

Is it me or does the Firefox 4 interface look pretty much the same as the Opera 10.5&10.6 interface? (not saying that either one copied the other)

For me it's odd. I have to at least wash my hair before going out anywhere (say for instance I'm in a rush or woke up late). I will never go outside without having at least my hair washed. Showers are everyday except when, as mentioned, I wake up late or I am in a rush.

The T2i (or 550D as known in the UK) does have autofocus, but it is not 'full autofocus', in the sense that it relies on a slow Contrast Detection Algorithm to determine focus. It does however feature Full HD at 30fps (1920x1080). I'm not sure about what exactly you're trying to achieve here. I mean, you want to spend quite a bit of money on a decent camcorder, yet you want to basically destroy its quality by putting a cheap-o lens on it. You're going to notice how bad it is when filming in HD.

I have a strong urge to lock this thread just after posting.

I don't know exactly what it is, but some banana flavoured throat medicine. I had it when I was about 8, and that was the nastiest stuff I've ever tasted. I mean, the doctor even told me, before he gave me the medicine, to east something very sweet before, and something sweet and cold after to quickly remove the taste. If the doctor thought it was bad, imagine what it tasted like for me :S

He has 3GB of RAM (speed isn't that good however). What I will say is that the specs of your computer are not that good, especially for the premium price tag alienware puts on their computers.

The only real problem I have with FIFA as the moment is Blatter. He refuses to accept technological change. He wont use goal line technology because 'it is prohibitively expensive'. Really Blatter? You mean like the camera in the corner of the goal? (Note that i am not saying that england would have won if that goal was counted, just that using technology would make sure that incidents like that wouldn't happen again).
