Back off-topic, I've always wondered, having done a bit o' torrenting (do you see what I did there) myself, why I am not compelled to hold forth on any of the allegedly co-relevant fronts anywhere on this board, much less in a section set aside especially for that purpose, yet those who habituate BT do so with such a genuinely religious ferocity.
Funny how things concocted to facilitate a free procurement cause such a brouhaha.
Ha.
Exactly
Oh, oh, I know the answer to this one.Quote:

Well if you mean morons in the literal sense, i.e. having only a single track mind then I have to concur, but the religious zealotry stems more from a belief that they will somehow be more 1337 if they shout louder (it doesn't necessarily have to make any sense, it just has to be LOUD) and if they are the latest B.M.O.C. then they must be cool, and then the next thought that wanders through the hamster furiously running on his little wheel is that if they are this cool then they must go off to quell the barbarians in the lounge and convert them..........little do they know, they are cannibals!Quote:

How very cheap :dry:
Then again, it takes a full-on retard to not know he's a cannibal.Quote:

I meant that (some) lounge denizens are cannibals, witness chavis, he can get through 8-10 bit tards a day no problem.Quote:

:o
What a hilarious misunderstanding.
:rolleyes:
I don't think torrenting (or talking about it here) makes me somehow more 1337. If anything, it makes me more average since most members here do it. And I'm not shouting, just asking questions. If you guys don't want to answer then don't. If it makes you feel good if you answer in some cryptic language, trying to twist my words, yet telling nothing, so be it. This is the lounge and contrary to what most BT people think, it's next to impossible to really be insulted online. At least I can't be.
What.
The day I feel insulted online I will shoot myself in shameQuote:

I got a scalextrix. True story.
Seems pretty decent. No new incontinence pad this year?Quote:

I also got a remote control mini-helicopter thingy, a stylophone, and a rubik's 360 puzzle (completed on boxing day)
Rubik is a big waste of time.
Throw it out the window and you'll be more happy than ever, trust me.
Well I'm quite happy now, having completed it and put it away in a cupboard :unsure:
What's a stylophone?
I read "xylophone"...
however is a digital music instrument. Could be useful for example with Ableton or something like that i guess.
Ah I see, what masterpieces have you composed so far?
The theme from "Star Wars", "Auld Lang Syne", and "Danny Boy" :happy:
(only the instructions for how to play Danny Boy were in the leaflet)
Stylophones are ace. They were massive in the 1960's.
When I say massive, I don't mean they were any different in size, like. Just very very popular.
"Telstar" by The Tornadoes was played on a stylophone. I think. Also the Beach Boys used them. Maybe.
I am going to get the husband one for this birthday next month. It looks like the sort off useless thing he would like.
Actually I just checked and both these statements are false :(Quote:

I don't believe you anymore :snooty:
PS: happy 11000th post to me!
Hmm, yes.
I also had one of these.

Now that is something that is DEFINITELY ending up out of the window at some point :angry:
That looks like fun. Give it to me!
Not until I've done it :frusty:
Looks very entertaining :DQuote:
