Wow, thanks everyone for posting the same 3 or 4 bits of advice. Now if only we could get a few more people to copy/paste the same "it's your fault/apologise/man up/pay for it" post, we might drive the point home.

In some ways you're very right SamWOW - but I think that posting this question on the internet does show that Funkiest Monkey wants advice, and will listen to others. And they are rare and wonderful traits that deserved to be praised more than criticised. I would also say there are situations...

Hey Funkiest Monkey, I hope you don't mind if I don't suggest any actions. I would encourage you to remember a few things though. Remember what you did wrong. This way you may avoid such situations in the future, and become a better person. Life will be full of mistakes, that's just a fact...

A time machine? I hate having to choose just one thing.

These two music videos - seriously worth it:

A Stealth-Driver of course.

Whoopee Camp with their Tomba/Tombi franchise, and Oddworld Inhabitant's side-scrolling department.

Well, since we're generalising: Here 'in the West', our storytellers focus on formula. They know the three acts, character arcs, season cliff hangers, and all that Joseph Campbell stuff back to front. Movies like Iron Man are extremely formulaic, and easily predictable (did anyone here...

I was at a pretty strict school, and had already received two detentions about not wearing a tie. Next infraction was a Saturday detention - as you can imagine that is a big deal for everyone involved. I had, of course, lost my tie early in the day by using it to swat wasps over a bin... and...
