TV in general is pretty shit, tbh. Before Robot Wars started I hadn't properly watched TV in a long time, just Netflix, NowTV and Youtube. Even Robot Wars I just watch on BBC iPlayer.

You've pretty much summed up why I've not bothered to get a TV, nor is it missed. Everything I want is available on demand through the internet - why bother?

[NeglectedField]

I'll watch some of it. Don't think I'll be staying up until 4am though.

That went well. I was still up well past 4am.

I think I got to the letter I and thought fuck this. Seems I missed some funny bits though.

Speaking of which...

Whatever happened to post pub TV on a Friday? We only had four channels back in the 1980s and '90s, yet there was always something decent on when you came home from the pub. Now there are loads of channels and it's all repeats and crap.

There used to be a great pairing of Roseanne and Cheers on Ch.4 on Friday or Saturday (?) nights. The good thing about there being so few channels was that there were always a few people who'd watched the same as you so you could chat to them about it a day or two later. Community, society.

Yeah pretty much this. Haven't had a TV in years, just get everything online, especially with Netflix et al stepping up their game on the original programming front.

How about them kitchens, then?

It's the real thing.

Bloodstock on Up All Night on Radio Five Live. WTF?

"Hello, is this Bloodstock? This is the BBC and we would like to speak to Dee Snider about Donald Trump. By the way, do we get free food and backstage access all weekend?"

[Gandalf the Red]

It seems that way.

The bloke doing the interviews is normally the one that does the games reviews so I'm assuming he's a fan.

Anyone ever had a kidney infection before? Have a horrible feeling I might have one.

Yes. It sucks so much. Get to a GP if you think it's definitely more than just a UTI (i.e. you're throwing up, got a fever, back pain that you can't massage away), leaving it can cause it to get pretty nasty. They'll give you antibiotics. In the meantime drink plenty of water.

[Nantha]

Yeah. If you've got a kidney infection you'll pretty much be delirious with pain and throwing up etc. Sometimes bladder infections can travel up your ureta if they are left unchecked though.
You've probably just got a bladder infection, as they can give you pain in your back, kind of where your kidneys are, I get them on the regular. Go get some antibiotics!

[peypea]

Ooooooooooh okay! That makes me feel better then. Thanks guys <3

A railway station in Japan that looks like a cat.



Cat train.



Even the staff are cats. Although that one died they have now got a new one.
