You kids with your newfangled A*s at A level.

My course is English Language and Linguistics, which comprises pretty much everything you wanted to learn about language but never knew. The way it works here is that certain courses are honours courses (and in fact nowadays most courses in the top 50 or so universities will be), and a BA is...

Huh, I went to WGBS too. What a small world. Well to keep with the theme of the thread I'm in third year of University on track for a 2-1 or First if I put some effort it. Finished school with 4 As in English Lang/Lit, Politics, Maths and Further Maths.

Well, crap. What do you think the chances of a UK release tourney are? Slim to none, I would think.

Trawling through the Comedy Goldmine at somethingawful I came across this thread and was inspired. I reckon the Smogoners here could easily give them a run for their money. I nicked one of the better ideas I saw there: Cubone as an insane mass murderer. I was quite pleased with how this...

The most important thing is make the silence as awkward as possible, then stretch it. Anyone can break a silence, but keeping one going in a conversation of more than four people is a real skill. If you're desperate, you can always just say "So, this is awkward." Works a treat.

Fox used Mirror Coat! Rayquaza fainted!

Definitely seconded, Ender's Game is amazing. Also good are Good Omens, and most other stuff by Terry Pratchett.

I met Suggs, the lead singer of Madness, when I was doing work experience at the BBC. I also met Jonny Vegas (an English comic actor of some kind) in a bar in Edinburgh. And danced with him.

"Just kidding!"

Advertising for the win. Or maybe journalism.

I was walking with a friend of mine, and he got hit by a milkshake someone threw out of a car. It was pretty funny for me, but at the same time we were like "What dicks."

If anyone's familiar with Magic the Gathering, and the lead designer Mark Rosewater's columns on the website, you might agree that the player profiles apply here: Spike, Timmy and Jonny. For Spike, winning in competitive matches is the most fun thing. Timmy is all about getting big effects, so...

The one that's made me tear my hair out, shout and curse and taken the longest to actually kill is the 50th event battle on SSBM. Awesome stuff there. Most atmospheric or coolest has to be Quadraxis. The feeling when you realise what it is you're fighting...

Piano for like..13-14 years now. Guitar for about 5 but didn't have lessons for a lot of that. And of course flute, the most manly of instruments, for maybe 8 years. Just stopped lessons since I'm off to uni in a couple of months, but I'll keep playing. On the subject of pianos, what are...

Yeah, I was doing requests rather than picking my own, which is why a lot of them look strange (that Raichu and the Blaziken especially). But hey, it was quite good fun.

Slowpoke obviously, paras I think, venonat..I don't remember where the mouth or tail come from though. Erm, any that you want for avatars is fine. Heh, I'm no artist, these were made pretty much for fun.
