Boring in here you say? OK, let's get some controversial opinions on the go:
(omg this is hard)
The One show is excellent dinner time telly
Cheryl is now the least attractive member of Girls Aloud
Charlie Brooker is funny, but he needs an anti-Brooker to take him down a peg.
Michael Mackintyre is the Daily Mail of stand up comedy
I didn't buy a poppy this year, not because I have anything against the fallen, but simply because I rarely go into shops. I also shamefully think that I may have been engaged in intimate relations during the 2 minute silence without realising it (was still in bed). Dirty talk is the worst reason to break a remembrance silence.
erm, those aren't that controversial at all... so, how bout them ethnic minorities, eh? Eh? Where I come from, Nepalese people are referred to by racists as 'Lumleys'. That's pretty fucked up, right?
Oh god I'm sorry...

Brooker is overrated and getting too full of himself so I agree with the end of that sentence. I do like the wipes, Touch of Cloth was awesome but I got bored of his whole shtick.
WHAT DO YOU ACTUALLY LIKE?
I like Michael Mackintyre, not exactly one of my favourite comedians but he's fun.
Never seen The One Show. Factually incorrect whilst Nichola draws breath. Agreed, and they should co-host a show. Lies, damned lies & slander. Same, I just didn't go near any poppy-sellers. I missed the remembrance silence whilst trying to drag my hungover body out of bed. Yes, yes it is.
Grrr, them ethnic minorities, eh?!
Roy Chubby Brown (although he seems like a lovely bloke).
Jethro is The Daily Star but without the tits.

I didn't buy a poppy this year, because I chose not to. I don't need to buy in to a marketing tool just to prove to random strangers on the street that I'm a caring person. I have the utmost respect for all the people who have fought for this country and I will remember and honour them in my own way thank you very much.
Oh, and I love The One Show, perfect viewing pre-Eastenders.

I always wear a poppy, and usually buy three for when the other ones get crushed. My great-uncle Frederick was killed on the Somme and is buried in Amiens; his younger brother was my grandfather, lived to 96 and missed his brother all that time.
So yeah, poppy. Not to prove I'm caring or anything (I am a grumpy old so-and-so) but for Frederick.

No Jim Davidson is more like the Daily Sport. MackIntyre is the bland, lowest common denominator middleclass pile of bleurgh that would appeal to Mail readers. He's not as hateful and gin fuelled as most of their readership but he is a comic for people without a sense of humour.

So technically you may have observed it, i know i was plenty quiet had a heavy Friday and Saturday, didn't wake up till 3.45pm Sunday just in time for the football.
Wait, people thought Cheryl was the most attractive member of GA?

I saw her on Breakfast the other day and she looked well ropey. The hair has gone too far.

Holy shit Thor 2 is filming in Greenwich!!! Must steal Chris Hemsworth......
yea the filming is only about 50 miles from me I was planning on heading there and kidnapping Natalie Portman, lets formulate a plan, same destination similar goals.
What, now? Let me guess - post-Olympics Greenwich Park is doubling as a war zone.

It's just 8 miles from where I'm sat right now. But alas I am stuck in work and cannot leave yet. Might head over there after work....
From the footage I've seen it looks like they're in the university.

Looks like what I used to do on my Amstrad 
Looks like a cross between Breakout and Space Invaders.
That's definitely what you should do with it.
Space invaders, but the ball comes back and you have to hit it back up to them like in Breakout.
I just invented SpaceBreakoutVaders. I'm not good at naming things.
In other news, I've got Black Ops 2 on Steam and I'm actually *GASP* really enjoying the multiplayer. Haven't been a fan of the series since Call of Duty 2 (which was awesome) so this is my first time really enjoying it since it became popular. Anyone else playing on PC?

FYI: Google Music is now live in the UK. Probably the only thing of interest is the whole "upload 20,000 songs to the Cloud for free, stream to any Android device" thing, but it's cool.
Uploading my library at the minute, Virgin are going to love me.
I'm all over kendirck lamar like a rash, Fucking driving.. I blame it. Once a CD is in my FUCKING DECK YOU CUNT its on till the end.

will gently cradle you as time slowly ticks away.
I've lost 20KG (3.2 stone) since leaving my job in April. The first 4KG was from full-time muay thai training, the rest has come primarily from not eating as much. With not being able to effectively exercise due to taking warfarin, caloric restriction is my only option.
I expect to lose another 6-7KG (1 stone) by the end of the year. Then I'll see about coming off the warfarin so I can exercise again for a more healthier weight management.
That said I was clinically obese at the beginning of the year (around 130KG / 20+ stone.) Working a desk job 10 hours a day does absolute wonders for the human body.
I used to weight 120kg, dropped to 87kg so far, but I've hovered about this weight for weeks now. Probably need to do more cardio.

I've lost nearly 1 1/2 stone, aiming to lose 2 in total so nearly there. This is the hardest part though. The first stone practically fell off.

You wouldn't be a love and pick me up a Tom Hiddleston while you're there, would you?

Of course I will my dear! I'll pop him in a box up to you with a big bow on it.
Google Music is great, but I actually prefer Android's streaming service which offers (I think) less tracks for free, but any mp3s you buy from Amazon are included and don't count towards your storage limit.
I tried Google Music, liked it, but now I use the paid subscription to Amazon as I find the Amazon app better to use on my phone/tablet and on my PC/laptop

Good luck f0rk!
Oh wow. Thanks for alerting me to this.
squeee! you guys still heading to brewdog? such an awesome place. Haven't been to the one in Glasgow in aaaaaages. Really need to get a GAF game of monopoly going in there someday.
See, she was my favourite GA back in the day. She looks as rough as Cheryl now :/
Was exactly the same weight range. 125KG back in 2007 and I'm now at 88KG after I started walking more and hitting the gym back in 2009. Wish I did it fucking sooner. The odd stretch marks act as battlescars to remind me of my foolish over-eating/lack of exercise past.
Thinking about heading to St. Andrews tomorrow for a bit of nostalgia sightseeing and coffee consumption. Does St.Andrews-GAF exist out there?

What exercise are you looking at? I gym it up fine, but I suppose if you're looking at team sports it might be an issue! Speaking of which, just got back from the gym, bloody knackered!
Good luck man, the best part of interviews is the excuse to suit up. And sometimes you get a free meal out of them!
TKMaxx is pretty good if you're patient.
