A lot of the time I feel like I moan about the OT section of GAF, but this thread here has redeemed it completely. Outstanding stories, and anybody who used Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing at school will enjoy one in particular :)

EDIT: So, Xun doesn't actually look like Cera, it was just that one photo. Also, detective skills suggest Musha is a blue WKD girl. Tut tut.

Manchester top UK piracy city.

Lol, Manchester students, I presume. Not that I care either way about piracy.

I reckon my old flat mate is solely responsible for Manchester being top of the leader board. Dude downloaded so much I got a letter from Virgin threatening to cut us off as we were in the top 1% of all downloaders.

David Gray doesn't deserve to belong in the "guilty pleasures" category - he's straight up fucking awesome

Ugh, I managed to VPN unlock Borderlands 2 this morning but didn't have time to play a little before work.

Now I'm 6 mintutes into the working day... this is going to be long.

At least I can read some 'I Kill Giants' at lunch

I'm gonna need one of you guys to bail me out. The missus just won't learn to put the cap back on the toothpaste and I've decided to murder her rather than keep asking. Assuming I win the inevitable epic fight, I'll post which station to bail me out from.

Y'know, that might be the order of the day. That, or buying a new tube every time I find the cap left open. Or murder.

4 weeks as a non-smoker today. Woo-hoo!

Any smokers on the fence should knock it on the head, I reckon. It's easier than it seems.

Nah, don't seem to be. Mind you, I didn't cough when I was smoking. I'm worried that's a bad sign.

Once I get through all the awesome Colgate I bought during the jubilee (vintage packaging FTW), I'll try that Oral B.

Dude, read this post. I was a smoker then.

I'm generally laid back but some things push my buttons something fierce.

My mum got a free mini tube of this from the dentist, it tasted awesome.

Didn't have it at the tesco by me though, ended up buying this really medicinal tasting aquafresh.

Urghhh got a cold. I was going to start my placement essay for uni today but I guess I'll just today but I guess I'll just play GW2 instead. Slipped back into the student life too easily tbh

I went to TGIF once. Basically McDoanld's with waiters and high prices is how I remember it.

Like an artificial feel inside ? I get that vibe from frankie & bennys, and the bars right before Edinburgh castle.

I'm a non drinker so i hope they have some decent alcohol free cocktails.

These toothpaste shenanigans brings up the subject of:

Are you a "squeeze the middle" or "roll from bottom" person when it comes to toothpaste?

Due to my laziness my girlfriend has another complaint entirely: that I don't lift the toilet seat up at all.

Fair enough - I think the first time I noticed you posting was in the London Riots thread. Everyone was pretty riled up in there :D

I want to see SmokyDave's posts in the London Riot thread (I barely posted on GAF at that point). I suspect we might have had similar views towards those who decided to riot, except he'd have been a lot more vocal :D
