Same here. I really wanted to do another Dark Souls playthrough but it was so slow. Christ knows how we all played it back in the day. Remaster will be a day one purchase for me. Hopefully we don't have to wait too long.

One of my favourite surprise games the year it came out. So addictive I started seeing blocks everywhere I looked. When the dreams started about climbing them, I genuinely started to worry.

Pretty much my story with Ocarina of Time, made that Christmas magical unwrapping it and sticking the golden cartridge in my N64 for the first time. Think I got MM for Christmas too, I remember taking it over to my nan's for Christmas dinner and doing the Deku Scrub swamp bit. Also loved MM because I'm pretty sure it's the same Link from OoT, isn't it? The 'Hero of Time' Link, my era Link. Playing as him again was a lot of fun. I know they're all the same really, but still. Anywho, my list: 1. Ocarina of Time 2. Windwaker 3. Majora's Mask 4. Breath of the Wild 5. Twilight Princess Breath of the Wild is the anomaly though. It doesn't 'feel' like a Zelda game to me. I loved it, but the change in format turned it into something else, a brilliant something else, but not a Zelda game. I also thought the 'main' dungeons and boss fights were very disappointing and too samey. Skyward Sword just misses out on 5th spot for me, but TP was just that bit more memorable. I loved the fact SS came with a CD of newly composed Zelda music played by an orchestra though for the 25th anniversary. That CD is probably the best freebie I've ever had.

Edit: Bloody Photobucket...

It isn't always going to be scintillating, of course, but it should be of a higher quality more consistently than it currently is. It seems to be the trend that teams that build for the longterm and have the approach of playing good quality football are the ones that not only get promoted, but remain in the Premier League beyond their first season after promotion. I'm talking about Bournemouth, Brighton, Southampton when they came up (though admittedly my memory is foggy on their style since it was a few years back since they got promoted), and it seems Wolves are following suit. I think that's the only way we're going to not only get into the Premier League, but stay there, and for that we need a coach with the same philosophy. Steve Bruce is not that man, in my opinion.

Gave Stevie Wonder a cheese grater for Christmas last year. Said it was the best book he ever read.

Sounds like a control freak to me, plus he's not even his father. I'd have a word with you ex first, see what she says then take it up with him.

Who is saying this, exactly?

Now I love pets, think they're great and in fact one of my parent's cats had to be put down last week and I was sad of course, but people who treat pets like they're their children definitely pisses me off.

You're right, that is George but Peppa is far from the voice of reason. She's pwopa norty, little turd.

Exactly this. I've only read The Road but it was an absolute chore to get through, and not because it was so dark and bleak. I love dark and bleak. It's like he intentionally does the opposite of what constitutes good grammar and writing just for the sake of it. If there was a passage which would have read better in a single sentence, he'd split it into about four of them. If there was a part that would read well broken into multiple sentences, he'd write it in one ridiculously long sentence, and without commas. I don't know if a comma murdered his family as a child, but his reluctance to use them and other forms of punctuation is either ridiculous at best or intensely pretentious at worst. I suspect the latter. His writing just screams 'I'm a hipster and I go against all convention, even to the detriment of my craft,' to me. I'm not much of a fan, if you hadn't guessed.

Peppa Pig World? Jesus Christ. When I have kids there's no chance they're watching that shite. My niece is obsessed with it and she mimics the 'wahhh!' noise whenever she doesn't get her own way. That little bint is an awful role model for young kids. Great in a sandwich though.

Actually that's the Scout motto; our motto is just 'Prepared'. You've been supporting the Scouts all these years I'm afraid.

I swear you come on here every Sunday telling us how you drank yourself silly and you can't do it anymore, yet here you'll be next weekend, repeating the cycle

Saw the tv spots yesterday for The Defenders, the ones where it's about ten seconds on each of the four of them with a shitty loop of a shitty remix of Come As You Are as they plaster buzzwords on the screen whilst the characters do stupid poses like they're in a photo-booth. Awful marketing. I wasn't keen on watching it before despite enjoying Daredevil and Jessica Jones, though I haven't watched Luke Cage or Ironfist due to pretty rubbish reviews, but those ads seriously put me off. Doubt I'll be giving it the time of day with so many other great things to watch.

So Mike went to the library on Saturday.

Judging by those fairy wings I'd say you have absolutely nothing to worry about when he grows up

I'm not sure comparing the good doctor to Donald Trump in favour of your argument is necessarily the best route to take. The way I see it is this: He's not going to come out and talk openly and frankly about the club's business, and I think most of us realise that is sensible and the professional way to go about things. But he realises that it's important to have a dialogue with the fans, especially after our complaints about how Lerner kept everything to himself and we all got very frustrated because of it. So whereas his tweets are cryptic and get a bit tiresome when we're all upset about something and may seem a bit unprofessional at times, it's better than not hearing anything at all.

They might have done, but we'll not hear anything before 9am and even then probably not until lunchtime. Not that I think he'll go, though I hope does.

I reckon I could nail the general area where someone was from by listening to their accent, sure. In most cases at least. I've also grown up around enough American TV that I could distinguish between a fair few of their accents, but not all of them. I can recognise a New York, Boston, Californian, Texan, Louisiana...an, North Dakotan and have a shot at recognising a generic mid-western accent, I'd say. But I'd struggle with a number of others.

Very enjoyable, though it was missing a major casualty for me. Thought we were going to get it but it was cruelly snatched away at the last second. Oh well.

Fair enough, I know what you're saying, but in my experience the guys I know who complain about it (and it is only guys that I've ever heard talk about it though I don't doubt women have the same complaint) do so in such a way like they're being treated unfairly, like it's anything other than the woman just not fancying them in return. There's a song by Thundercat that I really like called Friendzone. I only like the music, the lyrics are not only awful (but he's always been a shit lyricist anyway) but a load of old bollocks. It sums up how some of the guys I've encountered feel about it though:

I'm just saying it's daft that people give this sort of thing a name, like men or women think to themselves, nah, I'm going to put them in the friendzone. You just don't fancy them like they fancy you is all. It's been going on for centuries, yet no one made it into something it isn't. I was also relating it to my current experience, in that my girlfriend and I were friends first and then the attraction grew. Nether of us out each other in the friendzone, just like neither of us thought about it when we decided we liked each other. It's a silly notion that people create when they don't fancy someone that fancies them in return. But we can stop going back and forth if you like.

I wasn't describing the friendzone, I was merely stating men and women can be friends. I've certainly been in the situation a couple of times before where I've had feelings for a female friend and whilst initially some stuff did happen, eventually she preferred me as a friend. Obviously I did the whole 'I'll show her what a good guy I am and she'll fall for me', but neither time did it work out. I just think it's a bit of a silly notion is all and men sound pretty whiny when they complain about it. It sucks when your feelings are unrequited, but that's all it is. From the girl's perspective, it's not like they think 'well I fancy him but we're such good mates it'd be a shame to jeopardise it'. That's just some crap they tell themselves and you to try and make you (and themselves) feel better about the awkward situation. The simple truth is they just don't fancy you enough. It may be physical, in which case there's nothing you can do about it. It may be something daft like she needs more of a challenge and you're too nice and therefore not exciting enough. If that's the case the she's not worth it and not right for you. Even if she did give it a chance it probably wouldn't work out.

Well someone was.
