    That doesn't mean that other people won't find it offensive - particularly an ad that picks on as many offensive stereotypes as this one does.

    This doesn't surprise me at all from Paddy Power though - a company known for such gems as ads where odds were offered on whether old women would make it across a road.

    Oh I know that. I don't tend to get offended by any ad's though. Their purpose is to grab attention and if that's what it does well then they've won.

    I'm a Skyrim widow, he's been playing almost every waking hour for the past week.

    I'm just going to sit here and hint about cups of tea and see how long it takes. It shall be an experiment!

    Dropping back in before dropping back out again - been sick since Monday, but still going to work when i probably shouldn't be. Can't seem to shake this feeling of sadness that I have atm, can't seem to get my head around work or anything, feels like I'm stuck so far down a hole that there is no point in trying to get out. Been trying a number of ways to get out of it, but its just not happening for me tbh :(

    Laptop lead decided to give up at the weekend, so fairly annoyed about the whole thing. Inspector also arrived yesterday - thought I sent her an email saying I didn't have the hall, but apparently I didn't - so will more than likely end up getting another visit, was very annoyed at the fact that she came on a day that I thought I didn't have a class even because the hall was being prepped for the mock exams.

    Gonna unsub from this thread again, won't be back to check cos its too easy to post, PM always open - see ye all soon, hope ye all are doing well

    Shortly after pressing snooze this morning I heard a dog screeching downstairs. Que everyone jumping up out of bed to the aid of screeching dog. The boy dog had been on my bed and was trying to get out of the room as quickly as me, he got in the way of the door and BAM door hits my big toe. Feel pain. Don't care. Run to other dog. Find out my dad caught her paw in the back door while forcing her out in the rain. Look down. Blood everywhere. It's not the dogs. :eek:

    Toe has barely stopped bleeding all day. I know how she felt. Only she's not in pain anymore and I am. :(

    He's had it over a month, the amount of time spent playing has been spiraling upward in the past two weeks. For someone like me who's a gamer themselves it feels kind of weird to be saying that it's started to get out of hand. Like, I used to play epic runs of Black and White, and we spent a lot of time playing Silent Hill but this is something different. I'm actually going to have to have a chat with him about it!

    Graham Linehan and Ben Goldacre retweeted me before. Felt proper famous for about 5 minutes :o

    And Rob Kearney has replied to some of my tweets. I mean, we're practically BFFs now at this stage. (may be a bit of a stretch..)

    I'm a WoW and now Star Wars widow, and as I don't play anything like that myself it gets damn boring. He seems to think that it's okay to spend 12+ hours playing if one of his characters is a big boobed kick ass girl who bears a resemblance to me physically or has my name :rolleyes:

    I have my tea now and Skyrim is off.

    Watching a new programme: Awake.

    Considering it's a pilot it's actually awesome.

    Ovarian cancer or other masses of the adnexa uteri.

    Why is asking a guy out such a fecking ordeal? I'm having to work myself up to asking him to go for a drink with me, and this is someone who was flirting like mental with me for the last week. He's busy this week, with collegey stuff so haven't really spoken to him in a day or two and I'm actually annoyed at how in my head he now is... :/

    Anyone know if telepathy to make them ask YOU out works?

    Speaking as a guy, being asked out by a girl is awesome, we like that. dont make a big deal of it but make it clear its a date, like when you get talking to him again just ask if he wants to go for a drink with you, if hes bring flirty and you know he likes you go for it, whats there to lose?

    no telepathy is more like reading minds, what you need to use is "the force"

    Its more that I'm friends with him, and he's one of those people who you never know where serious begins and messing ends. Now he's been fairly forward but still I'm nervous as hell, I'm not good at this!

    Isn't it funny? Men are supposedly crap at taking hints, yet are the ones who've had to do the asking out, and women get terrified about asking guys out even though the guys are apparently delighted when they do.

    Something went wrong somewhere, methinks! :p

    I never really understood the idea that women couldnt/ shouldnt do the asking out.
    Its scary as hell but a bit of an adrenaline buzz,
