Passenger, love the sig dude!

Rockstar Games are badasses, they sent me a load of R* Studios stickers there in the post the other day complete with the "With compliments" R* company signature. I'm deciding whether to put R* North, R* San Diego or R* Leed on my rucksack...

Thanks, Nailz. I made it myself. And why did they send you complimentary stickers?! I'd be tempted to use R* North one, seeing as it's the home of GTA.

I've just been installing a load of games on steam today

I dunno when I'm gonna play them all! :pac:

Good stuff, looks the part! I asked for them, simply, thought it was worth a shot and it paid off. If you follow Rockstar on Twitter, message them (privately) and ask them if they can send out a few stickers and leave your name and address. They got back to me in 2 or 3 days and I received them via airmail from London in a couple of days, sent them out pretty much straight away. It's the complete set of studios and also the famous yellow and black logo, awesome.

Goes to show what asking gets you. Good shout on the R* North sticker by the way!

Edit: Here's a wee photo I took of the full set when they arrived, I was clearly chuffed with them!



I broke the page, sorry. :pac:

Nice one, Nailz! That's a pretty natty collection they sent alright. I'm tempted to email them now.

Nailz

Cool, let me know how you get on!

Salmon is the staple of any nutritious diet. And is delish. Did you know that Salman is rich in Omega-3 fats which work through reducing inflammation in our bodies. Inflammation is turning out to be at the base of many health problems, including heart disease, diabetes, some types of cancers and arthritis. Omega-3’s also help prevent the blood clots which cause many strokes. A fairly recent development is the realisation that omega-3 fats have potential to help slow cognitive problems such as Alzheimer’s disease and age-related cognitive decline.

If anybody says 'nerd' around here again, I'm telling ye! Pow!! Right in the kisser. :cool:

Omega 3 fatty acids have also been linked with prostate cancer

Only if an egomaniacal U.S. Army General is in attendance.

I got my dinner sorted anyway, and then ate a whole pommegranate

xerces

Cajun salmon ftw, I cook it at least once a week, along with taking daily Omega 3 and multi-vitamin supplements. It's great for your skin too... (<- how metal is that last statement /m/ :P)

Links234

I've actually had salmon 3 days this week fish 4 days I had tempura yesterday with white fish, prawn and squid and I was a happy bunny I do like fish an awful lot

Angron

Fish is ok, I'm not mad keen on it though. I love steak, rare and bloody.

Links234

I'll generally take fish over steak most days I just don't eat beef all that often I guess

Angron

I hated steak as a kid, just cause I always got it well done. First time I had it rare, I never looked back.

slavetothegrind

ham and cheese toasty mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

not good for you but real gooooood!!

We always got steak cooked to death too, because it was always a poor cut so best cremated, lived in middle of 'road don't you know!

Links234

Yeah, I used to have the good old cremated boot leather as a kid, and then discovered the joys of a properly done steak. but even so, I tend to enjoy fish a lot more and steak is a rarity.

actually, it was only last week I had steak but otherwise it's not that often I have it

and I'm having the ultimate in lazy dinner today, fish fingers and waffles

is it just me, or does anyone else think it's odd that anime doesn't seem that popular on boards?

I think it's rather refreshing.

seriously, I do find it odd considering the amount of people I'd know in real life who are fans or at least casually interested, not to mention the overlap with general nerds and internet culture, we just don't see much fandom here? like the Anime & Manga forum on boards is rather dead. and I just don't get it?

Angron

I've got a bit of an interest in it, but I've never really gone onto the anime and manga forum here.
