    Space Marine "Rips Off" Gears of War

    considering cover is one of the most important gameplay mechanics in gears, and space marine has none, I don't see how it can be copying the only similarity is that they are burly guys who use chainsaw weapons, and warhammer got that first

    David Cameron calls for all teens to do community service.

    wasn't it blair that bought back tuition fees? and wasn't it labour that got rid of most of the grammar schools? the best chance for bright kids from poor backgrounds to get a good education?and besides, raising tuition fees shouldnt put off the poor, since it is paid back at the same rate (9%...

    Should the UK have a Royal Family?

    it is nothing but a symbolic role, and that is what the monarchy is; a symbol and actually it isn't ridiculous to have them as head of state. the head of state represents the nation, and it is better to have that in the hands of a powerless figurehead than in the government. I say that...

    Should the UK have a Royal Family?

    by invading britain? you mean when the normans took over from the saxon kings, or when the saxons took over from the british kings there beforehand? yes the monarchy has done bad things in the past, but so has pretty much every governing organisation in the world. you can't get rid of them for...

    Should the UK have a Royal Family?

    I don't see why not. it gives us some vague sense of national pride, and probably actually makes us money from the tourism and things it brings basically, what dex-dex posted

    50 Americanisms That Brits Apparently Hate

    could care less is the most retarded saying of all time. IT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE SENSE, ALL IT DOES IS SAY YOU DO ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT IT. well, that needed venting. I feel better now.

    Scariest or Most Disturbing Nightmare You've Had

    tie in between a chinese dragon eating winnie the pooh, my toys committing group suicide because they thought I didn't need them (I must have been one fucked up child) or a more recent one when I was being forced to kill myself the forced suicide one was actually the most disturbing one...

    Poll: Times you've gone temporarily insane

    well once I started hallucinating from sleep deprivation and cold (I had taken my quilt out of my room when I got up to pee and forgot it, I was half asleep) and I thought my pillow was evidence of an alien conspiracy and was trying to protect it. the family was not impressed...

    Remember Neopets?

    haha same, that introduced me to the internet too. I was so bad at it, kept losing passwords and never got rich enough to not have to rely on the soup fairy and giant omelet for food but man was it awesome. I miss the grundos...

    A sad day for humanity or at least the public image of these women.

    that was actually so bad. I mean, how the hell can they actually get away with making jokes about that? the man in the video was completely right, there is a huge double standard. if a woman files for divorce and her husband lays a finger on her in retaliation, he is (rightly) called a monster...
