Financial times. Fo sho that's what I'm talking about.

What should we be aiming for? FHM? Private Eye? The Daily Telegraph?

You mean like the SM forum?

What Did Everyone Have For A First Car And How Much Was It To Insure?
Tomm replied to planet x alan's topic in Chit Chat
My car can do 70 mph -
No, I don't really have an opinion on the guy. Just IMO there's not much difference between a "cocky guy" and a "cock". That is all I meant.

You mean he's a cock?

I think it was as much that he (Spacemunkee) was suggesting that someone hides something from Tom (something against the rules) as well as him insulting him. Although he probably should have suspended Caleb for posting it in the first place, if anything. Piracy isn't legal, and the forum can't be seen to be promoting it, even with the disclaimer.

I'm a trials rider, not a philosopher. I ride what I like, not what I think is "right". There's no point limiting yourself (Although I can't remember the last time I rode any natural )
-
Tom started this forum, has paid hundreds for it over the years and has put countless hours into running the place. If he wants to suspend someone, it's his privilege. You better believe I'd do the same thing if someone insulted me personally. Whether it's petty or not is not really the point, although if you've just come back off suspension it was a really stupid thing to say. Also as CBProductions said, he's gotta keep a bit of authority around here. So I think it was fair enough.

What Did Everyone Have For A First Car And How Much Was It To Insure?
Tomm replied to planet x alan's topic in Chit Chat
I went on my Mum's insurance when I first past - I think it was about £600 extra on top of her £200/year (R reg Polo 1.6). I had that for 4 years, and now (when I'm 22) I have the same car in my own name for £600 ish, fully comp. This is the first policy in my name, so technically I have no NCB so far, but they counted it as 4 years no claims, which is nice So I know everyone says to get your own insurance and start earning NCB, but if you've got nice parents who are willing to insure you, it'll probably work out cheaper -
Just bought it Will let you know how it goes when it gets here (Hopefully Friday if all goes to plan...).
-
It is a bit harsh to post that because some people might believe you and do some damage. And we don't want that, do we? But it was quite funny
-
I generally find that PCs (and macs before anyone says) are a pain in the arse to sort out when they've gone slow. You've probably got some kind of virus/spyware etc and unless you know what you're doing, you'll probably be better off doing a format Haha, I have to say I laughed at that. Quite mean though!
-
It does adjust the travel, unless you've got some other version, or some old model or something? Are you sure it's called U-Turn?
-
Haha, nice one. But yeah, it's not my idea of an amazing trials picture. But I guess it's got the Urbis in there and it's not a terrible pic. Nice one anyway - You're in a museum
-
I saw some Judys with U-Turn in a bike shop the other day and it seemed to work impressively well. Just wind it in and you can go from 130mm to 80mm. Although I don't really know if I'd use 80mm ever... But it seemed to work well.

Most topics end up with a bit of mild homoeroticism don't they?
-
I think I'm gonna buy this tomorrow. Anyone got anything to say on the matter? Marin Wildcat Trail - I've found it for £495 inc postage, which seems like a decent deal. It's the 2004 model but the retail was £755, so it's quite a saving
-
Yeah Pro Evo 5 is really good. It's so hard to score if you've played PES4 for a while, cos it's a completely different game. But when you get used to it, PES 5 rocks

I don't really care. You do as you do, drink what you like and I'll do the same. Just don't spout a load of complete crap because some people might believe you, in the same way that you've believed some random alarmist site designed to scare people. OhNoTheAliensAreComingAndItsABigCoverup. Aspartame and Phenylalanine are different things. You said all that stuff about phenylalanine but now you're talking about aspartame. Having said that, if you avoid drinking Coke, you'll probably be all the healthier for it, so good on you. I like Coke and I don't think it's that dangerous. So I'll drink it as and when I feel like it Seeing as you wanted some links: 1. "There is no evidence that the regulated artificial sweeteners on the market in the United States are related to cancer risk in humans." 2. American FDA - "More than 100 toxicological and clinical studies we have reviewed confirm that aspartame is safe for the general population." 3. American Cancer Society say: "since aspartame is broken down into these components before it is absorbed into the blood stream, aspartame in its initial form does not have the opportunity to travel to target organs, including the brain, to cause cancer." And now I've wasted enough time on this.

Obviously the sarcasm was lost on you

You're chatting complete and utter bollocks Phenylalanine is one of the 22 essential fatty acids that is found in just about every kind of food ever and it's one of the main things that make up any meat. The reason they say "contains phenylalanine" is because some people have a condition where they can't have any phenylalanine (Google "PKU" if you really care). It's not a warning for normal people at all. Just because it contains a benzene ring doesn't mean it has all the same properties as benzene itself. In this case it doesn't mean that at all.

Idiots play Fifa. True story. Haha. It's quite funny how opinionated people get over this. I personally am I PES kinda guy, only because that's what I've played for the last few years (In fact I've just been playing it now). If you're clever you can get all the real team names for PES, so that's not even an issue. I'm sure both are pretty decent, they should be after about 10 versions each!

Nah, I can kinda see it. Not for me, but it's not THAT odd. She's quite posh ain't she? Maybe that's something to do with it?
