I feel very strongly (as to be fair we probably all do) that the people who fought for this country should be given special status in society. Without them, nothing of our lives today would be the same. I think it's shameful how quickly we move on and assume it was just history, that's all. In arguments like this we all (myself included) tend to seek a comparison argument like a lawyer would, ie: you think x so it follows that you also think y. Arguments can get a bit carried away and miss the fact that most life is about judgement and compromise. So while I don't find everything offensive, I just feel that in this instance, the feelings of the people involved should come first. Again I don't know for sure whether veteran's groups were consulted first, but I think they should have been.

So you're in favour of banning things minority groups (whoever they might be) don't like? Interesting. 39712[/snapback] Yes Renton, that's exactly what I meant. It's a very straightforward opinion. I'll restate it. I would rather a game like this was deemed acceptable by the people it represented before our enjoyment. It's out of respect nothing more. If the war pensioners association think it's ok, then aces! FWIW I love computer games although I prefer things like Zelda.

You don't have to try something to disapprove of it. Like necrophilia or crystal meth. I'm with manc-mag to a point. The servicemen and women of this country are the most incredible people who deserve our gratitude. If they didn't like the game I'd be all for banning it. Compared to fighting for your country, increasing growth in the 15-34 gaming sector is hardly something to be proud of!

Sexist tbh. 39565[/snapback] Realist.

Cheers. He had quite a different set of influences to most other artists, especially of that era, wouldn't you say?

Yeah it wasn't really much was it? I don't know why everyone's so up in arms about using buses though. We've had coaches for years, surely it's just about moving with the times.

*googles* Boobies \o/ 39586[/snapback] ? 39596[/snapback] Cool trainers!

Thanks I will.....honestly you try and do something nice and everyone shits on you! I was not aware of him and shall consequently keep an eye out squire! Unless that is....I forget to watch the game

Oh, I see, cool. Arty! Btw, that's incredible for a self portrait. I normally just get half my face when I try.

*googles for Lee Miller*

She looks like a RIGHT slag!

Who's that on your avatar btw?

Yeah, I've read a few biographies so it rehashed old ground, but that didn't really bother me, the historical footage was a bit hit and miss. What did hit was amazing though - the Odetta footage was brilliant. 39551[/snapback] Forgive me I was half asleep (I taped it though) what was the Odetta footage? Was it that woman who kept whacking her guitar? She was amazing.

As Alan Partridge noted, God's a gas.

You're sure that's definately the reason?

I quite liked the pace of it tbh. I don't know anything about him so to me it was quite interesting to see what his background was. I understand if you already knew it though it'd be a bit slow.

I was only messing abaht! On the other hand, I believe in the possibility of God, I just don't have much faith in religion.

It was really good. I'm not a massive fan of his (apart from Subterranean homesick blues ) but he's undeniably an amazing songwriter. Looking forward to pt2

God's 11th commandment. Moses was the "service provider"! If you believe in that stuff that is. 39505[/snapback] I believe in the 10 Commandments, just not in God 39512[/snapback] ONE: 'You shall have no other gods before Me.' Monopolies and mergers? TWO: 'You shall not make for yourself a carved image--any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.' Disagree THREE: 'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.' No problem FOUR: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.' Tell that to B&Q FIVE: 'Honor your father and your mother.' If they're sober SIX: 'You shall not murder.' Ok, fair point SEVEN: 'You shall not commit adultery.' But what would Trisha do? EIGHT: 'You shall not steal.' Again, fair point NINE: 'You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.' I promise TEN: 'You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's.' Unless he's got a REALLY fit ox

Well, I do have 2 39483[/snapback] 2 personalities or 2 labradors?!

Rangers are from Glasgow too!? 39472[/snapback] There's nowt gets past you like 39475[/snapback] If I'd have said what he said I'm sure you'd have picked me up on it.....

Does that go for Newcastle being a soap-opera as well? 39430[/snapback] No, it only goes for religious hatred.

Rangers are from Glasgow too!?

That would have been funny. If we were still at school. Many people here make posts with subtle and knowing references. Those who spot them, enjoy and appreciate them. Then someone like yourself comes along like a big happy labrador and drools all over them panting and barking as if nobody else was able to see it. They could see it. It just didn't need saying. 39468[/snapback] Flesh flute? 39469[/snapback] Are you Chinese?! Flaut-ist
