i don't think so, as long as it isn't expired and is signed on the back. All they do is check it visually. Half of the time they don't even check your ticket, never mind the card.

I love how my brother told me he never liked metal because he was never angry enough.
I just said fair enough and kind of left him with his view, I'm not gonna convert him. I like metal simply because I liked the sound, and I liked the culture.

Have you seen Metal: A Headbangers Journey?
This explains why some people say its a way of saying "fuck you", but like he says at the end, "you might not ever get it". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJUU_Y8IpRk
Get's a little self-glorifying with the other folk on it, but Sam Dunn is awesome. Well worth a watch.


I've watched it like 4 times...it's brilliant :D

As some said about 'why' though, it's things like that which make 99% of the people who are my friends criticise it. I know it shouldn't but it really pisses me off when people are like 'Why don't they sing about happy stuff' or 'ROOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRR is all they do in metal...shout over the sound of nails in a blender' as one of my mates said today. All the stuff of people saying this and that about Metal can piss me off sometimes , but that's just me

Dissolving the superglue, usually with a Naptha 100 blend or something like butyl diglycol acetate will do it. If you have some lieing around, ofc...

Having no money for anything other than rent, food and utilities. Like, zero in the bank, after paying those bills.

WD40 can be used to dissolve some adhesives. Worth a try, perhaps.

I'd argue that it's not having enough to pay the rent food and utilities...sometimes breaking even is doing well :(

I'd call that being more than skint - if I can't afford a roof, warmth and food then I'm in trouble, basically. Skint is the middle point between having enough to buy extra things for myself and having to phone up my dad for some money (thinking back to my student days when student loan barely covers the three essentials above).

Basically the above. If you can afford the basic essentials (food, shelter, utilities) but very little else - you're skint.

If you have less than that I would argue you're in poverty.
