He'll have been one of the main driving forces behind erradicating Polio before he dies but people will only remember him for inflicting Windows Vista upon us.


At least Vista worked (well, it did on the PC i had anyways), ME however was by far the worst operating system i have ever used.

Boot up computer with windows ME, connect to aol dial up net, 30 seconds later after the first website loads, the whole thing freezes and the only way to restart the laptop is to remove the battery, start again and repeat.

Bloody awful.


ME was shite, but it was just a continuation of the same shite that 95 and 98 had been. Vista was building on the half decent foundations of 2000/XP and so could have been good, yet it managed to strawberry float things up even more!

You've all been talking to me for a while now. The police will be around to arrest you all in an hour :lol:


Honestly though, these days, you just talk to a woman and you get arrested and thrown in jail.

Are you sure? You talk to a woman, and get thrown in jail? I mean, are you sure?

Well this advert worked. Reminds me I need to pick up another wad of fresh Gillette razors off of ebay after about 10 years.

I don't ever use a razor. If I wet shave I look like a boiled egg/12 year old boy.

As for the advert - meh, it's a decent message but would rather they just sell their product and not be all preachy (this apples to all companies, not just Gillette).

You can get arrested and thrown in prison for saying that these days.

I know Stewart Lee -- not well, but I can confirm that he is a cock. I've spoken to him several times in the past at various get-togethers (although not recently), and he's a pillock. He used to go out with my wife's cousin. He came up a few times for Christmas and one or two other things; I found him condescending and arrogant. Anyway, they've split up now, and my wife's cousin seems a lot happier.

Stewart Lee asked me if we had a vending machine when i was working at his son's school sports day; i told him we didnt and he left. true story.

I hate Stewart Lee with a passion. He's like Ian Huntley to me.

I can't stand the guy, think he's smug, pretentious and hideously unfunny. I get the impression his routines are viewed as highly intelligent on here. I don't see why.

Also I believe Karl's post is something that was said about him which he's repeated. Not sure I'd take pride in someone thinking I was a prick.
