Small problem...... Over many years the marmite floating in space would come back down, mix into the clouds..... it would then rain meaning you would eventually find youreslf drinking Marmite flavoured water.

If you carry this plan out, you could sell it as a special mineral water and make millions.

Intels?? (whilst I would certainly take it if someone bought me one I really cant see myself ever buying one).
Garden Peas (The smell alone is enough to make me naucious)
Consoles, they are sapping the life out of the PC games these days, taking all the good titles.
Reality TV, really starting to pi$$ me off now when the same crap with slight differences is on every channel.

nono, you misunderstand.
a newbie is somebody new to a game and is learning (allbeit sometimes slowly) as you say everybody is a newbie at somepoint (I am not ashamed of the fact that I am a newbie in several games ;) ). However a n00b is somebody so hopelesly (Or intentionally ) bad at a game that they bring down the fun from everybody else. The type of person who steals their teams only vehicle and gives it to the enemy (Knowing that friendly fire is disabled and his own team are powerless to stop him), the type of person who cheats on multiplayers (aimbots, invincability etc) the type of person in a strategy game who joins a 2v2 game and quits as soon as the game starts leaving his former ally 1v2 (sometimes this is an accident but often its n00bs)


I think I made my point :D

The plastic humps you sometimes get in car-parks. Ordinary humps or sleeping policemen are bad enough, but these plastic things shake my fillings out whatever speed I go over them.

Reality TV, Boybands, the Chuckle Brothers, Frank Sidebottom I agree with.

Oxtail soup? I thought that was almost compulsory in some parts of the North..
Celery is just pointless.

I'd like to add almost any ITV program (apart from the Bill, that John Culshaw program, and Bad Girls and Footballers wives are strangely addictive) especially Tonight with Trevor Macdonald. This show (IMO) proves that ITV has no clue about good journalism.

I'd also like to add Gareth Gates, Will Young, Peter Andre, Jordan and Jodie Marsh.
