  1. @TimOfLegend There was a cartoon called Sharky & George, who were fish. They would fall down a hole and get stuck. SWIM OUT, YOU ARE FISH.
  2. Has anyone used Minecraft to write "We Apologise for the Inconvenience" in flaming letters on the side of a mountain, yet? If not why not.
  3. @SyntonicThief Never, I'm not American so I'm not allowed. And also, see my first comment on this thread: sizefivegames.com/2012/04/25/siz…
  4. @RaveofRavendale There was a Kickstarter on @rockpapershot the other day called REALM EXPLORER. Might as well be called "Place Go-er".
  5. @Jam_sponge I don't understand why you get even ONE awards all you do is play computers why don't you go outside and get some fresh air.
  6. I reckon if you're an indie developer they should send you a copy of Max Payne 3.
  7. @jimrossignol Eventually he got to a grey building, but it was empty so he ran away through some more fields. Didn't see a zombie.
  8. @jimrossignol I watched a DayZ video because you've been going on about it, but it was just three hours of a man running through a field?
  9. Can't believe I just bought my last ever pack of bacon as a legally-single man. Unbelievable.
  10. Huh. I just bought something from the supermarket that doesn't go off until after I get married OH GOD SEND HELP
  11. @steishere I think of you every time I need to lick my fingers to open a new carrier bag at the supermarket. I don't know how else to do it.
  12. @Jam_sponge @cymrogav Future Publishing seems to be a place where the employees can only just about spell "visitor"?
  13. Apparently there used to be loads of Blue Peters, but then the Grey Peters were introduced from America and killed them all off.
  14. To kids growing up today, the very idea that Blue Peter was on at a fixed time, on a fixed channel will seem utterly preposterous.
  15. People complaining about BBC ditching kids' TV/ Blue Peter need to appreciate how kids use media, now. Times have changed. Good work, BBC.
  16. Panic-buying Greek-style Yoghurt.
  17. @patlike I like how there's a Diablo 3 pre-roll on the video of that guy raging.
  18. If you want to feel slightly better about the state of writing in video games, here's a trailer for "PIRANHACONDA": youtu.be/C4EZVtn5kLI
  19. @PokeHazCupQuake Pleasure. Thanks for playing them :)
