    I think this only applies to you.

    mine is fine

    I just get half a screen on MTV some times. Magnified. The full screen is taken up with the top half.

    MTV is **** anyway. IMO. Watched Roma And Michell not a great film but MTV dubbed over all of the curse words. for fúck sake.

    Ah now here

    Yep, my MTV is knackered on NTL. ON the plus side TMF was showing a VH1 documentary about Queen, which was worth it for John Deacon's hairstyles alone.

    Apart from the dubbing over curses/ the blurring of naughty bits (re breasts) at 11 pm, the fact they never play music videos.... Hough....(deep breath in....) what REALLY bugs me is this stupid white thing that goes all over the place when they do ACTUALLY play a music video :mad: That does my bloody head in.... Grrrrr need tranqs......





    Better :cool: hmmm

    Pimp My Ride is class though. And you can then flick over to Discovery for OCC. Preferably while drinking beer and scratching your arse.

    What an image....
    Would you be stroking your various eagle tattoo's at the same time?

    and running my fingers through my mullet.

    i see this on ntl but then it is perfect on Sky


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,892 ✭✭✭madrab


    same was happening with me


    but did anyone notice mtv showing full nudity on friday night at 9pm???

    they were showing pictures of pairs hiltons nipples and other naughty bits


    i was shocked and appalled

    Ahh now, in all fairness its pretty crap. I like seeing the revamped cars, but if i was getting my ride pimped i`d tell them to forget about seeing how many 15`LCD screens with playstations they can stick in my car; instead put the money into my engine. The worst is the peoples reactions; you just know before they start recording Xzibit tells them to use "cool phrases" e.g. "thats sick" at least 5 times !!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,643 ✭✭✭magpie


    Mm, point taken. I always like to to think into the future when these people have the equivalent of Megadrives welded into their cars. Having said that I enjoy watching the rednecks / pipe-beatin' niggas who are responsible for assembling the 'pimped' rides.

    I wish they'd pimp my ride, I'd sell it immediately.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 612 ✭✭✭Phil_321


    Anyone notice when the people get their cars pimped they're like, "This is just the first step, this is going to be the start of big things for me", as if they're going to conquer the world.
    I don't get it, what do they actually think having a pimped up car is going to change about their lives(apart from getting more ass).

    Yeah, "my new car is goin to open up a world of possibilities". You can impress the new boss with built-in fish bowls +LCD screens tied to your 26inch giovanni wheels; nice one Mike (the electrics guy) :rolleyes: Although that little mexican that does the upholstery is unreal. But, at the end of the day life is really only the endless pursuit of ass so maybe those "nigros down westcoast" do give people a new begining :D

    No because he`s quite talented at his job, for a mexican :)

    Are you implying that Mexicans are generally talentless ? :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 434 ✭✭Ruffty^


    ye-NO. I`m not going down the road that leads to a band from boards; so.......
    Mexicans are good guys and hard workers and have great accents; it`s like i never said otherwise but this is for skeptics such as BolBill. For example that Heineken add full of mexicans is brilliant although i can`t understand how two lousy keggs is enough for an entire bar full of thirsty mexicans..enough about our north american friends.
