    Yes it is, but so is what you plan on doing with young Mr Kirby.
    The only difference is my story was not true :)

    I've not listened to the piracy podcast but what side of the argument did you come down on?

    Well what you are getting is a selection of roms, not exactly tough to get those other ways.

    I'm pretty pissed off at the selection of games in the collection. Sure the games included are good and it's a much better selection than the mario one with a much better booklet so I'm told. But leaving out stuff like tilt and tumble which would work great with the wiimote or the superb Dream Course is just ridiculous.

    UPC just intro'd new packages. Their offerings are now 50Mb entry, 100Mb mid tier, & 150Mb top level. Existing customers from what I heard are being charged €3 a month to fall in line. That means to go from 60Mb to 100Mb it'll cost me €3 a month? Yoink. Oh by the way, Andrew, you shouldn't read this post :p

    Haha, yeah.
    I remember when the iPhone 4 or 4s came out in Ireland and they were expecting a big queue for them early in the morning.
    I wandered out of bed and into town and picked one up at about lunchtime, no queue and they'd sold about 2 of their stock.
    I'll never camp out or queue for a bloody phone!

    Hah was just muttering some foul words while reading that alright. Eircom have rang us twice in the last two weeks asking if we're happy etc. Same answer, we'll stick with you until UPC come down here, then goodbye. Knocked 5 quid off our bill for the next couple of months. :rolleyes:

    :pac:

    Probably a terrible generalisation but impressing members of the opposite sex is probably not top of their list I would imagine. Still, they're good for meme fodder on YLYL.
