Can I get a tiger then? Promise i'll feed it and play with it every day... I'd ask Quackie but he thinks a Headcrab and a rabbit are enough trouble as it is

Weirdly, that video goes pretty well with The Scorpion by Megadeth.. Prefiguring perchance? :rolleyes:

Gods, some of those sentences are depressing :(
Although, to be fair plenty of them are hilarious and i've found a few rather inspiring

Thanks for the advice guys. Looks like i'm shooting myself in the foot a little here, eh? Like i said, gaming would be the ideal, but i realise it's unlikely to happen..
Also (just had a look at a few English Unis) does anyone know what the Scottish qualifications translate to in English terms? I've no idea if GCSEs are the equivalent of Intermediate 2 and A levels are Highers or what..

Thanks again

(wasn't sure where to post this.. sorry if it's in the wrong forum)

Like the title says, I'm pretty interested in studying some kind of Computer Sciences course at Uni. Ideally I'd love to go into Game Design or something similar, but I know it's a very hard career to get into.

So I was wondering if any of you computer-savvy folk have done a computing course or have a career in computing? I've looked at a few prospectuses for Scottish Unis and at the moment Dundee and Aberdeen are looking fairly promising for their courses.. Not had much of a chance to look at English Unis, so any experience you guys have had would really help me out..

So, yeah... Any help/advice you lovely people can give me about this?

Thanks
Alma

Quote from: DogMeat;249157Exactly.  Neither of them really add any particular value other than bad hair and a speech impediment.

Just get that talent-vacuum Chris Moles off the Beeb payroll and my year will be complete...

:lmfao:

And somehow i thought i was the only one that hated those three.. Good to finally know other people see them as a giant waste of space too.

Totally agree with what Doorman said, even if i am one of the generation that's ruining the country.. All i'd like to say is please remember we're not all like that, just the majority

Quote from: Dr Sadako;249280Spot on. The swastika or solar cross is a very old symbol.

Yeah. Seen a lot on Buddhist statues. One of the few religions that truly seems peaceful don't shove their theories down your throat, and one of their symbols is now a symbol widely associated with hate and a dark time in history. Isn't that just a perfect example of how this world works?

...I'll shut up now

Movies, Music & Books / Two new Albums

Quote from: Jabbs;247010I'm enjoying the Metallica album

Can't decide if i like it or not yet.. They seem to be trying to mix mainstream tracks like in The Black Album with their earlier, much thrashier, stuff. Seperately they're both great.. But seperately. To be honest, i keep skipping The Unforgiven III... Don't see how there could even be an Unforgiven II. You shouldn't try and make sequels to such brilliant songs imo. But what do i know :rolleyes:

Shouldn't really comment on any of the other artists you guys are talking about.. Not really my taste in music anymore :)

Quote from: Jabbs;247033Hmmmm, I might consider a trip up to London with the missus :g:

It'll be well worth it. Went to see Tinselworm in Glasgow with a friend- almost died laughing all the way through.. The only thing i didn't like was that his "Emo" song was far too metal :P

Quote from: Thulsa Doom;246538True, but not really properly understand the true extent of his actions or consequences.

Little runt.

There's a word i'd like to call him that rhymes nicely with "runt"

He might not understand that he's endangered species even more, but at 7 you'd assume he'd understand that killing animals and feeding them to crocodiles isn't (for lack of a better word) "nice"
