    The size of Toblix's p-value does not reach statistical significance.

    A superb OH SHITFUCKBOLLOCKS moment http://www.wimp.com/whenaccelerating/
  4. A question about programming languages (sort of)

    Buuullshit Mr Han Man!

    So true Nach:tup: It's so painful to watch that I don't. However, the alternative i.e. 'personable' people from the masses is a far worse prospect in my opinion. {Enid Blyton voice} I just can't stand the commoners you know. {Enid Blyton voice}

    Possibly the most hilariously strange thing I have ever seen http://www.wimp.com/freestylecanoeing/
  7. Happy Birthday!

    It was my birthday on the 25th of April. THANKS FRIENDS
  8. Modern Warfare 3

    Will it be Activision doing it? (no time to read up now sorry) CoDBlops was an absolutely steaming, runny pile of horse shit with diced carrot in. It was Treyarch who did blops right?

    Happy birthday Nach and Jonny Cole!

    Hi Nach, it's for triathlon and commuting the 32 mile round trip to work (when I get some steam up in my legs!) Interestingly, I saw my first ever 'adventure' bike whilst in the shops looking for mine. It was a drop handlebar racer/hybrid with tyres betwixt a road bike and a hybrid. It looked quite cool but wasn't rally what I was after ultimately. Never seen one before though and I almost got it as it was quite rugged yet slick looking. Also, congrats Rodi. I'm an uncle to 5 children and it's great so good luck with your uncle-ing!

    The new baby... She flies like the wind! And, driving to work the other day, I was reminded of my good friend Poo...

    Camp there, we must.

    Damn you Erkki! I seem to remember you being great at that basketball game we were all having a go at too
  15. Obligatory comical YouTube thread

    That fucking interviewer is a sanctimonious cowbag. I think the song is no different to all the other crap songs like that in the charts () Also, Subbes, your Tanu comment made me chuckle. Sorry Tanu Rodi, I'd love to hear your song about monkeys in trouble! Sounds great!
  16. Call of Duty: Black Ops

    Sorry, that was my fault. I felt I needed to vent my spleen about how rubbish this game is. Let's never speak of it again
  17. Call of Duty: Black Ops

    Just finished this and I realise my game critique falls into three broad categories: Great, hmmm yeah it's ok and crap. CoD Blops has earned itself a CRAP rating. Shame on it. I knew I should have bought Crysis 2

    16.9mts. That's a damn sight easier than QWOP.
  19. Idle Thumbs Camping

    Umm well, yeah probably. I think it's a really cool 'draw' to your campsite even better if it was free wifi. we usually take a laptop when we go camping to download family snaps onto it thus freeing mem cards and I think if there was wifi available we would probably sign up for that too, probably. I say probably because it would have to be cheap as I can check emails and things from my iPhone. I would probably pay around £2 or so for the week unless the wifi was good enough to watch iPLayer for example, then I would pay a bit more.
  20. Idle Thumbs Camping

    Oh alright......we'll leave the fishing rods at home. HAPPY NOW?
  21. Idle Thumbs Camping

    I'm an avid camper (oooh errr missus) and I think the site is pretty good compared to alot of camping site websites of a similar size (i.e the bigger more commercial sites have snazzy websites etc, but alot of the smaller ones have rubbish sites). Just a couple of quick comments from a practical point of view. 1.The pricing of the awning and tent. The price range you quote is a bit confusing and would require a telephone call to you to be able to budget properly. There's a potential difference of around £30 over a week if my maths is roughly correct. From a customer point of view, is nicer to know these things without having to ring up if you see what I mean. 2. It's great you have fishing! You might want to say that people will still need a national rod license to fish there, everybody needs a rod license wherever you are. (I used to fish for a team and everything) 3. I think the wifi is fucking brilliant. That's all I have to say about that. 4. It looks like a great location, is it noisy next to the road? 5. I think if you are going to have children camping too, you seriously ought to consider installing a fence along the riverbank, if a child fell in, it looks like they would be swept away which would generate seriously bad PR. That's the cautious Dad in me talking there, my children will be on river lockdown. I mean all this in a constructive way and I think overall it's pretty user friendly and has most of the information I would want as a customer, not bad for three hours work Scrobbser:tup: So, hopefully sometime in August then. That should give Toblix and Poo and everybody else enough notice to get their acts in gear :tup:
  22. Left 4 Thumbs - The Homethumbing

    I might be able to get in on some of this here L4D2 action and will keep an eye on the Steam activity. I have *issues* at home at the moment so cannot see further into the future than the end of my nose, but I remain hopeful:tup:

    I did wonder that obviously, I read it that you would rather have police with sticks than stupid politicians, but I accept I could have interpreted it erroneously. Also, perhaps it is just because you are so incredibly handsome TP that random female tourists are compelled to have your face on film? I think you need to plunder that avenue for all it's worth:tup:
  24. Life

    WTF Elmuerte?! Awesome stick fighting cops?!?! I think the sight of an army of policemen weilding sticks and batons is an extremely menacing one. It brings to mind some kind of primal, tribal warfare for me; gangs of men beating people indiscriminately.
  25. Nostagia Gaming

    That sounds ace TP I'm actually still quite excited about Operation Wolf, because I also used to see that in the arcade and could never get very far with the meagre amount of cash I had. Can you tell me how/what you have to do to emulate the spectrum? I'm not particularly good at software stuff, so any tips would be good. Did you ever play The curse of Sherwood? Holy shit that game was hard. I'd like to play it again as an adult and see if it's still spirit-crushingly difficult.
