    Yeah. I've still got a few Beatiful South cassettes lying about.

    Whatever happened to journey South from Pop idol?

    What's wrong with that, technically it's worse to say Tescos grammatically. I mean you do usually have more than one lego brick when you're playing with them no?

    I just found this: :)

    Which is correct as the plural of LEGO: 'Lego' or 'Legos'? Neither, actually. The word 'LEGO', when used as a noun, should only refer to the company that makes the product. Otherwise 'LEGO' is supposed to be used as an adjective. Thus, when referring to the pieces, neither 'lego' nor 'legos' is correct... rather one should say: 'LEGO bricks' or 'LEGO pieces' or whatever (using LEGO as an adjective -- and one should really capitalize all of the letters, and put the little 'circle-R' symbol after it (®)). This is all a matter of protecting the trademark of 'LEGO' for the company (using it otherwise degenerates the strength of the trademark). This is not to say that I use the word correctly 100% of the time... but that's the answer to the question (it's always fun/painful to read the near-flame-wars that start at slashdot.org over this topic... and generally, both sides are wrong).

    So we're all wrong.

    Still ticks me off to hear Legos though. Gamespot on the Spot dudes are the worst offenders.

    Umm, how often does it come up over there?

    Every time they talk about Lego Star Wars.

    Which I think are probably about the best games ever made. Especially if you have kids to play games with.

    Diets. Ban them fucking all. My mother is obsessed with losing weight for twenty five years now (as far back as I can remember basically) and they are all full of shit.

    I have her on the T.G. programme now, where we do simple cardiovascular exercise like light Tai Chi, walking and swimming every day. I'm sure that she'll be a lot healthier in a few weeks. Those diet bastards cause a lot of fucking misery by promising people weight loss that just can't stick, and isn't healthy anyway!

    /is actually a lot angrier than he sounds >:(

    Diets that are permanant (permanent? I can never remember the ents and ants) changes to your overall eating habits are fine. Diets that involve eating cabbage soup, stupid milkshakes, only meat, etc - suck from the cock of goats and do nothing but make people gain more weight in the end.

    Dear member of the shop floor staff.

    1) The fork lift truck runs on diesel.
    2) Diesel engines start differently to petrol engines.
    3) The little Ignition light is there for a reason.
    4) Do you know what glow plugs are? I do and I've never even driven a diesel you bloody moron.
    5) Has your brain ever made the connection between the fact that the engine doesn't start while the fucking ignition light is on, despite you sitting there turning the engine over and over and over, pissing everyone off and yet, it miraculously starts first time and every time when the bloody light has gone out. Will this simple idea ever make through your skull?
    6)Put key in. Wait for light to go out. Turn key. Engine starts. Is it that bloody difficult to understand?




    /feels better :)
