Can't believe I had to scroll a whole 8 posts to see this. It's become a PW Boards meme now!

I'm off to NYC on Friday for 5 days. Staying in Manhattan. Any recommendations?

maybe a hotel in central park area

Probably around Sequence 5 or 6. The world opens up a lot more and the story gets more interesting. Stick with it, there are some brilliant bits in the game even if overall, the game might be slightly disappointing (personally I didn't think it was, but I can see why people would)

I think Vince Russo wrote Love/Hate tonight given the insane pacing and shock value.

I always thought he wrote the Rep of Telly load of rushed sketches and segments the majority of which are always bad.

I want to like Republic of Telly so much, if only because it gives Irish comedians a chance to get their stuff on TV. I'd love more shows which attempt to showcase Irish TV.

But it's just not very good. I like the "Hey look, something funny happened in that show!" bits but the sketches really bore me to tears....

Anyone ever get bad headaches after operations. Had a minor op Thursday and have been dying with migraines on and off since.

Was it a head related operation? Worse I've ever had was sore ears and a sore throat but that was for ear surgery, hence the first part.

It was a spot removed on my cheek and they used local anistetic. Feel pure nauseous since early this morning too, which had nothing to do with trying to watch Milan or Liverpool play and knowing neither would win.

Head to the GP in the morning would be my advice.

Stereomaniac · 12-11-2012 02:43AM

Yeah, seriously go to the doctor. Unless, are you a nervous person and thinking about your health a lot, stressed? But better to be safe than sorry. P.S Republic Of Telly is Smelly

jaykhunter · 12-11-2012 01:53PM

Has it stopped you eating? I'd say the headache's from low blood sugar or caffeine withdrawal. Best go to your GP or talk to your surgeon to be safe.

Advice from a doctor, take it to the bank!

GTR63 · 12-11-2012 11:32PM

Went to the doctor today, he said the headches were stress related after the operation among other things, he said if i'm still bad with it later in the week to go back. Which I am anyway to have a stitch removed. Got sick earlier too and already feel better.

gnfnrhead · 13-11-2012 06:54PM

I just logged in to my PSN for the first time in about 10 months. The trophies didnt seem to register. Taking GTA IV for example, I got 90something% and pretty much finished the game but have only the first few trophies. Will I have to do it all again?

Stress, eh? I'd wanna do a colonoscopy. Get in there and find some answers

HA!
My lord Assassins(no not a pun)Creed III is boring so far just done up to Seq 4 which needed 2 sittings cause hunting scitzo animals animals was about as entertaining as watching paint dry, this Conner chap is hardly a character either just a husk with a spud nose and weird eyes. I've played for over five hours and i'm sleeping in a stable and anticipating a tinge of racism approaching.

A colonoscopy still sounds like more fun than watching Raw lately

Hashtag_HEEL · 13-11-2012 09:10PM

Now that I have Raw over me I have Jessie J in March to look forward to!
What's everyone on here looking forward to before or after Christmas?

Stereomaniac · 14-11-2012 12:46AM

Kerbdog & Souls at Spirit on the 8th.

Nice one, man. Congrats.

Few years ago my sister and her boyfriend announced on Christmas morning that they'd gotten engaged. Half an hour later my other sister and her boyfriend announced they'd gotten engaged too. Cue snarky comments between the two of them that they were stealing each other's thunder, "I announced it first", "I'm older" etc.

Sisters...

Going to see Michael McIntyre this weekend. Not exactly looking forward to it though as I hate him. Friends bought me a ticket without asking me. Go for the craic anyway I suppose and comedy is always 10% funnier when you're actually there so I should be laughing 10% of the time.

Furious-Red · 14-11-2012 10:10AM

Going to Mumford and Sons and doing the usual 12 pubs of christmas here in Newbridge

Cheers. I know its a popular time to do it and we might not be the only ones announcing it that day, but I am pretty sure she always wanted a proposal on Christmas day. I also cant think of anything else to get her

So this will do.

Im also going to be all traditional and ask her dad, just looking for the right time.

gnfnrhead · 14-11-2012 11:21AM

Better hope she doesn't read boards :pac:

Congratulations and good luck.

That's why I wouldn't do it on christmas eve/morning. My gf's sister got proposed to on the morning and I'm sure she (her sister) would be reminding her how it was the same day, trying to make it sound sweet and sisterly.
When my gf would probably hate her and it wouldnt feel as special to her as a different, more random day.

Also, I changed my name. Anyone get the reference?

Going to Michael McIntyre myself, although I am looking forward to it as I'm a fan of his work! Sorry! :P

I had to Google it (didn't know there was a reference to be gotten. Just thought you were some sort of Monster of Telly)

I'm probably not giving him a fair chance, so I'm trying to go with a slightly open mind. Millions of people can't be wrong, can they?
