Is it direct from the books?

I don't know much about phones, but I've got an HTC One X which I'm very happy with and play Scumm VM games on. There was an Android gaming thread at one point, I think... My main advice would be to invest in a really good protective case. I got the £30 OtterBox one for mine and I'm so glad I did. It makes the phone a little bulkier, which for me is a plus, and has protected it from all kinds of drops, scrapes and spillages which otherwise would have killed it within about a month. Also, Bluetooth wireless headphones are brilliant, I got a pair for £20-£40 and they're great.

I believe Twig is saying he likes all kinds of music. Patrick interpreted that as saying he likes every piece of music created ever.

This is pretty similar to that Things That Make your Life Better thread, which started off as "software you might not know about" but strayed from that a bit...

At least some of these questions have now been answered!

This is entrapment.

Interesting article, Merus. I'd like to see some links to people seriously asking the CK question and trying to answer it. I always just assumed people were being tongue-in-cheek when they asked it, but maybe that's because these forums are pretty much the only cyberplace I cyberhang out.

Yes, definitely, goddamn it George, swear.

You could still learn how to code. If you need projects to practice on and can't think of any ideas, remake some old simple games. Then when you're ready to work on something new and if you still don't have any creative impulses yourself, find some creative people who can't code themselves to collaborate with. I'll bet there are plenty of them out there desperate for a coder to put their ideas in action.

What are computer games? Are they like video games?

My stepdad has a four-propellered aerial drone with a mounted camera, that you can control from your tablet just like a video game, it's ace.

Not me! I wasn't pretending, I really am that rubbish!

Is there a note on why it was deleted? I don't know how to work Wikipedia. Is it "Not worth mentioning considering the previous sentence, also a dubious question to ask, probably not important for this article"? And which mystery person made this edit? Will it just be undone again by someone else?!

I have a little curved scar on my thumb from working in Burger King and scooping the tops out of tomatoes, an arrowhead shaped scar on my forehead from play-fighting with my sister and accidentally headbutting a square bedpost, and a great long purple scar just above my junk from my hernia operation. I sneeze when I'm cold, which due to cartoons I thought was standard but have since been told by at least one person that it's weird.

pabosher, I don't see any warnings about the audio quality on this one, so I'm looking forward to listening to it!

EXACTLY.

Fucking hell. I honestly would appreciate an ongoing thread where the female forum members post whenever some shit like this (or #1reasonwhy type stuff) happens, to remind me of how constant and truly galling it must be. But yeah, where is the second Fem Freq video, anyway? Typical lazy feminist.

And make sure he knows how to use Skype before you leave!

Speaking of the Feminist Frequency thread: http://www.idlethumbs.net/forums/topic/8469-feminist-frequency/page-20#entry226708 This pretty much all applies to this thread too! I think that thread plus the Feminism thread should be required reading for anyone about to start a further Thumbs discussion about misogyny (or "sexism" as some are calling it).

Welcome to feminism/misogyny/sexism debates on the Idle Thumbs forums!
