    Poll: Me and my cousin are curious do people under 27 know their social security number offhand?

    Is the National Insurance number the UK equivalent? If so then yes. Nothing makes you remember a 9-digit number by heart like being on Jobseekers Allowance for a year and having to parrot it to everyone at every possible opportunity! And I'm 25...

    Drunken Condom-Flicking Mars U.K. Games Awards

    What? No! Why would you ask me that?! Seriously though, I have no idea why they decided that would be a good idea. We're not all that tacky and tasteless, I swear :-)

    Drunken Condom-Flicking Mars U.K. Games Awards

    I work for the Grainger Games in Liverpool and, when we heard about this today, we were all conmpletely and utterly MORTIFIED. We work so hard and they've just shit all over that. We honestly can't believe that the people who run the company would behave like this and we're really disappointed...

    They thought THAT was a good name for it...?

    I once saw an energy drink in a petrol station called Pussy. It was actually spelt that way too and I live in the UK :-/ It's Felix, not Whiskers :)

    To all Pokefans : Has anybody legitly caught them all?

    I disagree, I found it extremely satisfying! I liked the fact I'd caught them all, including Mew (possibly due to mild OCD) ^_^ I did it on Blue version way back when. I even got Mew legit, got her from a Nintendo roadshow thingy. Almost did it on Silver too, only had 2 of the dogs and...

    Poll: Look dude, I'm just doing my job...

    I've worked in game shops for about a year now and if there's one thing I've learned, it's not to let one random dick ruin your day. I got kicked off at really badly the other week, honestly the worst I'd ever had. He was trying to return a memory card under our 12 day exchange policy and he...

    Oh god French oral, panic!

    One phrase: "Je ne comprend pas" Whenever I didn't understand what the examiner was asking me, I just said that (y'know, rather than staring vacantly at him or something). Got me a B in GCSE French, that did!

    What is your favorite game of all time?

    Okami on PS2, hands down! Had a look at the case when I saw it on sale in HMV back in 2006 and thought it looked interesting so I got it. Didn't expect it to be brilliant but it just blew me away :D I now have a special place in my heart for all things Okami related, especially Issun <3

    Poll: Pocket Watches

    I quite like the way they look on a man, but then, I like unusual timepieces. I, for example, have this: http://www.ilovecutiepie.com/default.asp?Category=348&Product=510

    Leave me alone.

    I've been craving time alone lately. I have a full time job in a busy shop and I've just come out of a relationship. I need time to contemplate and analyse what went wrong and to think of ways to improve myself as a person. There was nothing nicer than just sitting playing a game by myself on my...
