I dont want anyone to die though

but James Buckley, who plays Jay, has confirmed one of the characters will be killed off.

He said: "We have to see what happens. Maybe one of them dies and the other three have to join up for the funeral.

"But the question is, who are they gonna get rid of?"

I hate tabloid junk...

Syncron.ie I think would be a good shout. Good prices and fast shipping. Have used them plenty of times.

Breaking Bad is on TG4 Thurdays at 11, looking forward to watching that after hearing on here it was great.

Why is it that when great shows get shown here they get a showin at a ****ty time.

Im currently in the middle of season 3 and it is one of the best shows ive seen.

DM_7 · 17-04-2012 2:59pm

Headline should read:

Inbetweeners acter jokes about possible new episode scenario

doesn't get the same number of hits though!

gnfnrhead · 17-04-2012 3:01pm

Well yesterday was a great day for me :rolleyes:

To start, I tripped and fell flat on my face.

Then Arsenal lost.

Then to top it all off, the girl I love decided we should see other people. We spent a good two or three hours talking it out but in the end it wasnt meant to be. That was by far the worst, the other two were just unfortunate.

So in an attempt to cheer myself up today, I bought Episodes from Liberty City and L.A. Noire

I couldnt do that to her. I love her too much. I want her to be happy, even if that means not with me.

She wasnt at all cold about it either. She was crying and everything so obviously it wasnt easy for her either. The intention is to stay friends, so hopefully.

Really sorry to hear about your news man, but trust me when I say the friends thing is never gonna work. I know this all too well from experience and the best advice I can give you is to cut contact completely for at least a few months.

Sorry to hear that dude. Seriously. Stay strong and civil with her but don't be best friends.

On an unrelated note my gear box went today. More money into a poxh car. Lost my key last week too so that was a big expense as well.

That Tupac video is amazing, the attention to detail is incredible. Lots of positive and negative feedback though as it may be only a matter of time before we see Elvis and Michael Jackson touring the world and people cashing in on the deceased.

Has got me thinking though, if Vince McMahon invested in this Hologram technology business, we could potentially see any match from any superstar dead or alive.

CM Punk vs Randy Savage, Mr Perfect vs Dolph Ziggler, Owen Hart vs Tyson Kidd, or Eddie Guerrero vs Daniel Bryan anyone?

Vince has no morals anyway so why not make it into a PPV and call it HoloSlam :rolleyes:

Not likely to ever happen to be honest, considering it cost Dr Dre or his label or whatever over 100k to have that 3 minute 2pac performance together, and took james camercons company a few months to put it all together apparently. So yeah, like Pixar movies, which I read costs on average between 50-100k a minute in those movies, it would cost a bomb to make anything of a large scale, and isn't a worthwhile investment for relativity small companies (compared to say Dreamworks or Pixar) like WWE or for a concert.

That's horrible news mate. Well it's a good thing it happened now so you can make a clean break and not slowly building up over time.

Man, you've outed yourself as a true face and a good guy

Can't say I'm as nice a guy! IMO I've never seen it work going from ex to just mates; it's too much of an emotional downgrade/barrier for one/both to be ok with. I'd recommend not seeing her until you've been with someone else.

Anyway man that horrible day is over, at least it's all up from now on

Bayern & Real has been interesting so far wished Bayern wouldn't be so sloppy in possesion & get at the two Headbangers (thanks Eamo) in Madrids defence. Howard Webb doing a rubbish job as usual, he is the absolute shìts at his job.

Happened to me 16 months ago only way I git over it was no contact (and a few months in new Zealand)
I did find out though she was sleeping wit our housemate for a while so that helped me moving on, downside dont trust girls anymore.

GTR63 · 17-04-2012 8:50pm

Sorry to hear about that gnfnrhead, if you stay friends you never know.
Thank god Bayern won that if it wasn't for a bit of defending that would have Beckenbauer pulling out his they could be a lot more comfortable. Both sides weren't very convincing defensively.

That sounds very sweet and mature and hopefully down the road ye will end up being very good friends or maybe even unite

Reganio 2 · 18-04-2012 2:18am

In contrast to you gnfnrhead. I went to work at 7, home for about 3 and went asleep at 4 and only woke up and hour ago. Best way to deal with some days

. I know how you feel went through it a month ago. Not nice in the slightest but just leave away from her and try move on the worst part is I am friends with her friends so still see her updates even though I blocked her on FB (I would strongly advise this as I realised it was killing me to see her updates aftwer nights out or whatever) Its not actually blocking her just stop her status updates getting to you.

Well, mostly. 97% with only a few races left so good enough.

Speaking of which, that air hockey game has to be the most annoying mini game yet! The pool isnt great either, but compared to air hockey it's amazing.

Haha, Mick Foley was on the new 30 Rock on Comedy Central last night. Was playing Mankind.

Though I thought i was weird....he was credited as "WWE Superstar Mick Foley as Mankind" in the credits for some reason.

pretty good film too

Ya to be fair they didn't Oirish it up. I felt the female lead was way too wooden, really took away from my enjoyment of the film as I couldn't empathise with her. Fassbender really steals the show I felt

Would you believe my stream stopped at the judo throw. Furious I was I missed it. As bad as Galway were I couldn't believe Dublin didn't win in normal time.

No Judo throw but a comfortable win today JC looked great from what I seen but I watched a dreadful offering of Arsenal vs Chelsea & Villa vs Sunderland. Clasico time now, don't fancy Real getting beaten, a draw i'd say. If Real lose their season could be in tatters morale wise.

Is there any way to just turn off game notifications on Facebook? I'm fcuking sick of getting invites to play crap games.

Used to just be one or two so I could block it, but it'll take forever to block every game I get a request from.

GTR63 · 21-04-2012 8:16pm

Real deserved that, don't get why Barca persist on playing Puyol with Mascherano the former is past it & the latter just follows Puyol like a lamb & aren't a compatable pairing it'd be like Liverpool picking Carragher & Spearing as a partnership. Messi keeps dropping deep now cause of the gargantuan amount of square nothing passes from Xavi, Busquets, Thiago & Iniesta. The team just looks tired & bland, they badly need a forward in like Falcao who will take some of the goal scoring burden off Messi who at the moment looks like a guy who is exhausted cause he has carried the team all year.

It looks so bland doesn't it? Both of them have been coasting it for years and really should stop working with each other. And yes I like both as well.

Is it sad that I loved Ronaldo's average goal more than Joe Canning's stunning finish today? I think it is but Dublin and Barca lost so all is well.

DM_7 · 21-04-2012 8:55pm

Barca don't want another Zlatan.

they started tonight without any of messi's regular support players, Villa, Pedro, Alexis or Cesc. Not surprising to see him struggle, throw in the number of games he has played lately its impossible to keep up the level of performance we have come to expect.

barca are fine. They did incredibly well to ever get close to Real who had a 10 point lead and playing catch up is a hard thing to do.

Real are are also a very good side so there is no shame in losing.

Spite is just feuling you Diabhal. Personally I'd say take that Fat Tony Daly & the people who say its the best team ever when they defend the way they do. I love Messi but the man looks exhausted & needs to be rested which Guardiola didn't do at all it seems. As a Milan fan i'd gladly take Zlatan any day over Sanchez who isn't a no.9 or was that the whole reason why Guardiola bought him cause he hates the idea of having someone who stays high up the pitch & tbf doesn't track back. He definetly needs to bring Pique back in vs Chelsea & tell Puyol or Mascherano to piss off to the bench.

Want to see Bayern winning it but washed up Nando can fùck right off with his "he's playing well but still ain't scoring form". Motd are showing the 2 games I watched today last says it all really but Villa vs Sunderland was always going to suck. Any chance they can show Joe's goals again ;-D
