I remember Maxwell's rant but thought if he's responsible for the work then its understandable if what a customer requests goes against his principles. In the same way a chef wouldn't go with the customers designs of a dish, they get what they're given.
You do realise that your comparison of a tattooist & a chef is completely ridiculous, don't you?

Gone for the shoe story although the change in shoe size makes me go WTF.

Pretty much.

Its amazing when Keith Houchen says it its not ridiculous anymore.

Before voting, remember there is a thread in the list which contains a grown man trying to take back the shoes he has on his feet to a sports shop.
Â
Are there no special awards that can be created for the shoe story?
-
Lots of good eggs there all deserving of winning, but Keith Houchen's not on here?

Tough one but settled on the Photoshop Challenge, some of those efforts were hilarious and it really cheered me up at the time. Want to give honourable mentions to the how Butch lives, most round head and depression discussion if I may. Also to all those who put in a lot of work for ongoing competitions/lists such as FogDude, Gladstone Small, HarmonicGenerator, they've all been fantastic threads fellas.

The Last Stand. If you can get past how wooden Arnie's acting is
Â
To think i've never had a bad word to say about you until now..
Â
When has Arnies acting not been wooden? its part of his charm.
Â
It seemed more so than usual, especially when you have Forest Whitaker in the movie also. Huge gulf between the two.
-
Feeling cheated with only 18 seconds of what would've been an outstanding match, especially when later had to endure about half an hour of shite music before Cena-Rock. I'm still cross.
-
Worlds nicest man, a fantastic post in a great thread.
-
The Last Stand. If you can get past how wooden Arnie's acting is and the predictability of the film its good fun. Violent, fun, slick and daft in equal measure. It'll also tell you if you have a sick sense of humour aswell.

Best Exotic Marigold Hotel - charming little film that should probably have had more success than Slumdog Millionaire. Fantastic cast and well acted but a shame that even the locals spoke good english.

The link isn't working for me?

Nobody about for chat during Raw?

If Rock came back looking bigger than ever, then he's marketed all over the shop in a Cena-Rock II at Mania it would mean a definite end to the smaller guys main eventing. Ryback, Cena, Rock and Lesnar's success this year spells the end for the smaller guys. I hope I'm wrong!
-
If Rock comes back looking like that it will convince all those who think of wrestling (the non wrestling fans) as full of roided up empty heads with a short life span. Its been great the last year or so with Bryan and Punk and smaller guys main eventing.

A lot of blokes could look as good as ShortOrderCook if they put as much effort in on fitness as they do X box.

How often are you down the gym?
Â
Gyms are too expensive for me, I do wii fit. I'm an x box widow so its just wishful thinking.
Â
Gold. Pure gold.
Â
Oh yeah haha, I'd rather use the gym don't get me wrong. If you'd rather nit pick than see my point fair enough. My b/f got a Kinect this summer to lose weight, but no never uses it and spends hours playing Assassins Creed etc.

Taylor said in an interview that he has a cold and should be at a doctors which means if he loses it wouldn't be anything to do with Van Gerwen's abilities. So yeah, what a knobhead.

I felt bad for only paying 90p to watch it on the recent Saturday kids mornings at the local cinema it was that good.

I think the best thing about The Wire is how worthy it felt. It seemed really important, like you're watching really vital stuff and getting the secret underbelly of how society works (or doesn't). Watching it, you feel like you know more and are just better than the people who don't. It's a ticket to be in a special, superior club. It's basically a Guardian subscription for the price of one illegal download.
Â
I think Breaking Bad might be better telly, but it might just be more recent.
Â
No no no tell me I wasn't imagining things. That word was not best.

How incredible is Brad Maddox?! One of the tidiest, most confident looking young guys to appear for quite some time.
Â
My nephew has suddenly decided that Maddox is his favourite wrestler and I've no idea why. Normally Cena is the best thing since sliced bread to him. I've only ever seen him in squash matches. What have I missed?
-
He looks like he's at deaths door.
-
You misunderstand. I don't believe he has any tricks. He is shit.
Â
Just say that then
-
His Between Two Ferns are good, especially the one with Bradley Cooper. Even if he is a one trick pony, its still funnier than Stiller who up until Tropic Thunder (which I still can't believe he was behind) hasn't changed for over a decade.
No.
Galifianakis really is a one trick poney isn't he?Watched 'The Campaign' yesterday, disapointing

Wreck it Ralph and I loved it. One for the young at heart who remember Pacman and Street Fighter but with a simple sugar coated plot for the under 10s as well. In a world of rehashed 80s films and sequels going into double digits its nice to see a film like this with such a fantastic original idea. Loved the Hell No anger management type support group scene. Starts off really well but goes a little flat from then on sadly, but otherwise worth a watch.
