Import them from Thailand - the games themselves are in Thai, but they come with instructions to translate them. The games are half the price and on eBay, you can buy them with little-to-no postage costs.

Only problem is, that you run into bootlegs more often than not when you shop there. Especially with Nintendo Games. :P

But seriously, why should I buy a game for 60 Euros from amazon, when I can import it from the UK for 20 Pounds?

Hah, why bother censoring your games when people can easily get them from other countries which excludes the censorship noise?

Luckily for all of us, german legislation isn't worth much in other countries. :P

Actually, she declared it later that night. Still, relationship never worked out.

Too bad. I declared my feelings to a girl once, but she already was in a relationship. Then she and her bf broke up, so of course I was hopeful, but they got back together. Took me over a year to get over this. :(

I'm long past that but the fact that it's been the last thing happening to me doesn't really help a lot.

Yeah, I see what you mean. I was lucky enough that the best friend of my best friends gf at that time (does that make any sense? lol) was single as well. And I guess you know how friends can be sometimes... well, turned out that I had a huge interest in that person as well. :)

I might have to ride a coach next week. Should be worth the last minute decision to London next week if everything goes to plan.

You'll be late for The Diamond Jubilee if you go next week. :P

Believe it or not, that's actually good. I instigated the end of this relationship, this one was too clingy and kept flip-flopping between "I love you" and "I'm not sure this is going to work". She thought I wasn't over Bex, which I believe is truly not the case, as it's been over a year now and I feel vindicated when after pulling the trigger, she kept coming back with "you've treated me like shit" and "I'm going to end it all"

Can't be doing with emotional blackmail. As Murtaugh says, "I'm too old for this shit."

I really don't know why people can't say "I love you" anymore. I thought it was just a cliché in US sitcoms... but apparantly it also happens in real life. Why are you in a relationship with someone if you don't love that someone? Going out, having fun together, having SEX together... but you cannot say THREE SIMPLE WORDS? I mean, you are already FUCKING this person (literally), but you CANNOT say "I love you", because "it's too fast"? Sorry, but... "I don't want to live on this planet anymore".

Yeah, but you don't have to be in a relationship to have sex. :P
Maybe I'm just old fashioned, but for me, a relationship can only work if you love the other person. Also, I'm sorry if I offended anyone with my previous rant. It's just that I cannot understand how anyone can say "we are in a relationship" and yet they cannot say "I love you" to each other.

At 6/8/12 07:57 AM, Haggard wrote: Also, the question remains: Why are you in a relationship with someone, if you don't love that someone?

But you don't fall in love with someone by going out with them for a few weeks, it is something that develops as time goes on, you could have fun with that person but is it love?

As I've said, maybe I'm just old fashioned. And I think you can love someone before you go out with that person. Or.. well, maybe it's just a "serious attraction" to said person... I don't know.

I think love is a powerful word that shouldn't really be shouted unless you REALLY feel and mean it.

Good point. Whenever I said "I love you" I did really mean it. I've said it to two girls (the last one I said those words to is now my wife ^^), and while one could argue if I really did love the first girl, since I don't have any feelings for her now whatsoever (might have something to do with the fact, that we don't have had any contact for about 10 years now), I really did mean it, when I said I fell in love with her.

It was the first time that this happened. And I cannot understand WHY it happened. In the letter, they said: "there's no invoice" and yet, the value of the package was clearly visible on the outside of the package. And I also cannot understand why it took them two months to notify me.

There are indeed some things that minors shouldn't see, I can agree with that. But I will never understand why movies that are rated "18 and above" are also cut...

And then there's 18 rated and R18 here. The latter is more for porn. I'd say it's UK's equivalent to AO rating.

So do you still want to go through that procedure again if you're going to buy a game from a UK shop?

It was the first time that this happened. And I cannot understand WHY it happened. In the letter, they said: "there's no invoice" and yet, the value of the package was clearly visible on the outside of the package. And I also cannot understand why it took them two months to notify me.

Incompetence, I tell you!

You obtained a silver whistle! Congrats!
You became a Private!

Yeah but even if you're in a relationship, you can still have sex and it not be about love, that relationship is still growing into something that the people involved will have to find. On the subject of love, do you believe in love at first sight?

Tough question, I cannot answer it. If you really want an answer from me, I'd say "no". But you don't have to be in a relationship to get to know a person. You can just hang out together (alone or with friends) and then the friendship may evlove to a relationship (ie, you fall in love).

Well that's one thing, that is why people get together in the first place I think but I won't lie where I have found someones personality attractive, I actually really like personality because of the debate of "looks vs personality", I'd rather go out with someone who has a colourful personality than who is boring and just focus on make-up.

Yeah, I've seen many girls where I thought "she looks nice", but once they opened their mouth, I realized how stupid they where. I've also experienced the opposite. Thinking "she's not very good looking" at first, but when I got to know her better, I liked her personality and I ended up thinking "she looks good". Very strange. ^^

That makes sense, I don't want to make guesses but was the first girl your first girlfriend?

No, things never worked out between us. My first girlfirend is the woman I married last year. :)

We have ages 0, 12, 16 and 18. Come to think of it, it's kinda stupid. The "18" versions are often cut, compared to the original. Sometimes, there's a "16" version of a "18" version, that has already been cut compared to the original... so the "16" version is doulbe cut.... *head explodes*

I've watched the "rated 16" version of "The Rock" once... it simply was no fun at all.

There simply isn't any other possible explanation.

For the level, ftl. Just sayin.

No, not yet. I'll have to watch it at some stage.

She's out there, it's just a case of trial and error at the moment. I think I've got a few leads...

Trial and error, I like that thought. I dunno about you but being single just gets me more at Summer than it does for any other season. Not even Valentine's Day puts me on depression but then again, I don't believe in such tripe anyway.

There are other ways of enticing women. I've yet to find a foolproof one, though I might try the looking after the nieces one at some stage.

So what shall we do instead? Praise them and kiss their arses for ruining this country? Nice one.

It's not the Job Centre's fault for this - this is down to the Austerity Measures of the Government, as they are unwilling to cut their own pay packets (increase their taxes) and help the rest of society.

We're in this together, indeed.

I know we can rule out protests and such. You know what they ended up going since the coalition government moved in.

Too much euphoria about NG being in London. If they plan the protests for another week, it would work better.

Then use your super soaker to get more points and move on. What is it, five days of deposits and you're done? We've got hundreds between levels, kid.

And they wonder why piracy happens.

And I really don't want to hear any defence for them.

And clearly you have a better idea than I do. :P

So that's why we have no London meet this year. I suppose that and the Olympics would have burned the whole country down. :P
