    Dunno actually. Doubt it though - I wouldn't have thought that "nerves" is any kind of excuse to be an unsafe driver.

    Racism

    I'm not sure about that. As has been said in the topic already - 50 years ago it was acceptable for most people to admit that they didn't like black people. These days, people who think like that are in the minority, and they know it. So racism is clearly on the decrease. However, the underlying racism in the country has begun to manifest itself in ever more prominent spotlights (The BNP etc). That is not to say that racism is more of a problem now than it was, or that there are more racists in Britain since the turn of the century. It's just been highlighted more. The BNP came along and got some power in some shit towns across the country. I am convinced that this is nothing more than a) ignorance on the part of voters and b) the power of the minority. If you can group together 30% of the vote in a local election, you stand a good chance. The fact still remains that 70% are opposed to the BNP, but their vote is split between Labour, Lib Dem, Conservative and others. That's my take on things, I'm not saying it's right by any means, but it's definitely something to think about :turned:

    Racism

    That's the problem... Judaism pretty much IS a race.

    I Passed My Test!

    Do something shit at the start. On my test (Singular :-" ), I thought I pulled out too far on the first junction we came to. I couldn't see the traffic so I edged out and then there was stuff coming. I was sat half in the road for ages. Annnyway, I thought I would fail for that (Making cars drive around me), so I lost all the nerves and carried on. In the end I passed, so all was well :turned:
  5. I used Aqua dock for a bit, but it kept popping up in games and being generally annoying (And taking up resources). Now I just have everything I need in the Quicklaunch bit (Y)

    Not sure that's the best attitude. Just be careful!
  7. Two things confuse me 1. It's really dark. I hate riding in the dark, it's twice as hard. 2. Why are they sponsored by nVidia? Looks cool though, cheers for the pics :lol:

    Good wink...

    From the album: Random

    ?
  9. There are chapters? (Y)
  10. Hehe sweet. The only place I've manage to intentionally grind is the central reservation on the highway at the south of Las Venturas. Go south on the strip, and then you're there (Y)
  11. Grinding motorbikes... It's hard to find place you can do it, but get sideways on the sump guard and the bike really flies along rails and stuff :)
  12. I can't decide. I would say HL2, because of CS:S. I've hardly played on the actual game of HL2, but I've played a fair bit of GTA:SA. Either way, they're both immense.
  13. I saw the question FYI ( :) ). But I didn't think there was any point in replying, I didn't think I'd rise to you. It seems likely that if I'd carried on, then the conversation would turn into stupid name-calling. I don't really understand what "pride" I have to swallow, but obviously you seem to think this is a game of one-upmanship. So I'm gonna stay out of this thread now. You "win". Now does your eDick feel an inch longer?
  14. I did for Vice City, but SA looks a whole lot bigger... I haven't even done all the missions yet :) What are the Oysters/Horseshoes?
  15. I'm not getting angry at all. I don't really get angry. Annoyed is a different thing, but like I said, I'm not really annoyed yet :) Good for you. I wasn't trying to wind you up though. That's not the name of the game...
  16. No-one has pissed me off in this topic, you're coming close though :). MrMonkey can believe what he wants. Whether or not I agree with him is a different matter. But he wasn't being a dick about it... If you want to take that as an apology, then go for it :)
  17. My mummy says I am... Idiots say what?
  18. I suppose it's a nice idea, but I think if the government could "fix" our problems by just throwing money at them, then they would have done it ages ago. There are always going to be people living on the street, criminals, people generally being dickheads. It's human nature and not something the government can fix :) You, Sir, are completely missing the point. Whether or not they should have children is irrelevant. It's the fact that you propose marching in there with your big rod of justice and telling people what they're allowed to do. It's bullshit. And that's without going into the fact that these poor families probably weren't expecting to live in such poor conditions. Add to that the culture in other countries (It's probably seen as natural to have children - Quite rightly imho) and I have a pretty f**king strong argument. I think it would probably be wasted on you though...
  19. I don't think you're ever gonna get decent quality sound from in-ear headphones. I have some Sennheiser MX500's (The same as those ones on eBay, but I paid £20 for them :) ). Didn't notice too much improvement in sound quality over in-ear headphones I've used before, and they aren't that comfortable... Do the job though :P
  20. Yeah, but the handful of homeless people in this country is nothing compared to millions (billions?) in trouble in other countries. Also, in Britain, there are so many opportunities compared to in Africa etc. And I'm not even gonna bother with Phil White...
  21. Depends if it was a PC... But seeing as I have a PC, probably the fresh powder. Although I expect it'll be icy runs, not powder :S
  22. To be honest, I'm not at all jealous either :lol: I think that'll be my final Mac-bashing post for a while, it's getting boring now...
  23. Yes, you're finally getting the point (I wish...). It is their God-given right to be able to have Children. How the f**k would you like it if some dickhead from a country richer than us came along and told you that you just weren't allowed to ride your bike, or have a car?
  24. I actually read your post and thought you were agreeing with PhilWhite. Anyway, turns out you weren't :)
