  1. Well we consider that (our version) a school activity more than a sport anyway so it still works for me. I understand much of the game time is spent spitting and scratching your balls. This is just from watching various movies.
  2. It's not physically challenging. It requires exceptional hand-eye coordination but you don't have to be in shape to play. You know, like golf.
  3. I had no idea you were a 12-year old, Gorgon. You made fun of my transformers.
  4. Part of the definition surely is that it has to be physically challenging, as well as be a game of skill. Snooker doesn't really count for this reason either.
  5. I almost screwed myself doubly getting home. Cop gave me a ticket for sneaking the green light by a millisecond. One of those things that really do not matter for road safety, but if you see a cop rigth next to you, you behave. I didn't see him. Then I kinda called him an **** and told him to stop talking and start writing the ticket, it just slipped out. That would have been twice the fine, they are supposed to write you up for oral abuse, but he seemed to ignore it. Anyway going to work today was a net loss.
  6. Find the right decision I guess. Talk to a doc.
  7. I once had am intern take my blood. She kept apologising which didn't really make up for not knowing what she was doing.
  8. I just assument since it was missing a dramatic story that he accidentally stabbed himself.
  9. It's two words. 'You are' contracted. How hard is that. 'Scuse me. I get testy about that.
  10. I have to work while Denmark - Germany is on. It's a bloody travesty.
  11. Been watching David Attenborough's life of 'x' series. I don't know if it's just that nature programmes don't have the budgets they used to, but there is nothing that really comes close both in footage and narration. He doesn't wrangle snakes or crocodiles or pretend to be surprised to have just discovered the critter he brought wth him in his car like every other American nature show.
  12. What, I collected star wars and transformers. You know stuff that was actuall cool back then.
  13. Is Duke Hauser the guy from Duke Nukem ?
  14. Indeed, they even call golfing a sport and not a hobby.
  15. Install pedals, or make it waterproof and install oars.
  16. The European Championships is turning out to be all kinds of awesome.
  17. It's the guy from Cloverfield isn't it. Same deal. Crappy handheld to get you 'in the action' and a huge budget. 'Ohh my god, what the hell was that' followed by the camera doing a detour on the ground. It really starts to get old fast.
  18. I don't understand why it's all handheld though. That's something you do if you have a burning desire to make a movie and no money. To see one with a big budget .. it's just a crime against nature.
  19. There are services that will let you do that day to day. You can actually make more than you pay in a month in a week if you let your place out during a convention where the hotels are all full. I get 3 weeks a year same as everyone else. You can get an extended leave for education and qualification courses though, as long as everybody doesn't do it at the same time.
  20. Come winter probably, it's a really ****ty time to be in Denmark. Assuming I can get the vacation time I want and my appartment rented out.
  21. Just as an aside, do you think it would be fraught with difficulty for a European to land in Seoul and take the train to the coast and the Japan ferry. Is that a straightforward thing to do or is there like a million changes.
