How dare you complement a rival team's player. Judas.

To be fair I did get backed into a corner and end up writing a few long paragraphs about why Rooney had fulfilled his potential.

Sent a picture of my season card tho and got a long message asking my opinion on stuff like how ticket prices are ludicrous or something. It's too much, I'm not a real person with opinions on things like that. I just get the ticket through the post and then go to the games.

I wonder what the ceiling/limit for this meme is.  Some are absolutely dreadful, but I really liked a few (the Willy Wonka one especially).

The Willy Wonka one is great.

It's actually expanding as the people that do them have started using 'prehistoric banter' and his other quips in the main apology video. 

Like this one.

  What was he referring to with "prehistoric banter?"

"Mine and Andy's prehistoric banter, was not acceptable" is the (paraphrased) full sentence, and i'm fairly sure it's about their female linesman comments about Sian Massey.

That prehistoric banter one is amazing.

The Guardian doesn't, and the Telegraph is well worth the subscription fee, plus you don't really need to pay it if you use incognito mode.  I do pay it because I believe in paying for good journalism.  The Times is a total piss take mind.

100 pounds a year for The Telegraph.    I suppose it's not terrible when it's a daily newspaper and you pay something similar for an uninspiring weekly publication like The Economist.

That's only if you want all the crap that comes with it like special offers on wine or Marks and Spencer and shitty apps for your tablet. I don't drink wine, I don't shop at Marks and Spencer and I have a perfectly good app on my tablet for reading the online version of the newspaper, it's called Chrome, so I pay £4 a month. There is a £40 a year option too.

About to get shafted by a discrete maths exam.

I think we need another atomic bomb to avenge this frog.

It's not a good buzz m8.

Actually I have a ritalin or adderall (I've forgotten which it is) that I'm gonna try tomorrow to see if I can get some work done. Will report what it's like unless I die.

That's not bad.  I'm just a bit wary about online subscriptions because I'll only really access it on my iPad and Safari seems to crash every 15 minutes now.

Has anyone ever bought anything from the US PSN in the UK?

FIFA 15 at 12am, tonight. Can't wait. Already bought it, and it's all downloaded and ready to play on my ps4. When I try to open it now, a big countdown timer thing comes up.

I've done it from NZ. Worked perfectly fine (may have been GTA 3 or sometin)...

You probably don't want to do this with FIFA though.

I was thinking server issues but actually i think it would be perfectly fine.

Yea I did it last night and it actually worked out around £10 cheaper in the end

Ritalin was good. 4 hours of solid work with no distraction. I didn't even think about doing anything but working for most of it, so it wasn't even really possible to get distracted. Kinda felt like being in a trance where working wasn't boring and nothing else existed.

Sounds too good to be true tbh.

I agree, that's true for most things like this.

It's strong enough that it concerns me that loads of kids are getting prescribed this stuff. Long term I have to believe that it isn't good for your brain. It felt good and it made getting a lot of work done very painless. It may be useful if used on occasion, but surely the people using it daily are doing more harm than good.
