Huh. I was wondering why I didn't see Game Sack make a new video this week.

They do have one coming out next weekend and that'll be it for a while. TBH I've no idea how they could pump out finely-edited 20-30 minute videos every week, it's no wonder they're suffering from burnout. With such a lengthy show, twice monthly is perfect.

Yahoo with Chinese new year coming up no more work for two weeks.

United actually playing decent football and 6 nations back too. Nice!

I use AVG. Always have. Just for the ease of use more than anything

I use Microsoft Security Essentials (free) and Malwarebytes (free) scan every so often.

Angron

I use Avast and malware bytes.

Rjd2

Cheers lads, I use them as well, was thinking of switching it up, but looking online does not seem a bright idea.:)


Anyway Leicester are now bookies favs for the premier league:eek::eek::eek:

Stereomaniac

Leicester? I don't follow English football in about 17 years but that doesn't seem very realistic. I haven't a clue about antivirus stuff but my computer always seems to run alright.

Virtanen

A friend and I have been part-time fans of Leicester for years, even when they were in the Championship. We feel like football hipsters this year

Would love if Leicester keep this up and win it..

Anyone else on upc broadband mine has been terrible since Christmas, struggling to watch Netflix or wwe network horribly at times

Happy Chinese New Year

Omackeral

A great bunch of lads.

Chinese new year was some crazy craic. Crazy dancing dragons,red envelopes with money being passed everywhere and music/food which I've never seen the likes of before!

They truly are a great bunch of lads:)

I'd be lying if I said Number 1 wasn't a surprise. We really didn't get on, maybe boards saw it as a love/hate kind of relationship. The others however I do love

Mentioned a while ago I was organising a TEDx event and doing a talk about gaming, comics and wrestling and you guys said to pop it up when it was ready. After 8 painstaking months of videos being lost, it's finally here. Feel free to share away, I'm gonna try to spam the fed now and angle for a free ticket to meet Becky

Was waiting for 2nd date but that apparently sold out now too and some of ticket prices on selling sites are ridiculous

Reading the Springsteen thread on here some tickets are still available on Ticketmaster. Try buying just 1 standing ticket at a time. Check out the thread for more info.

Got 2 for the Sunday. Flipping expensive but I've always wanted to see him and never managed to organise myself to get tickets before. He's a great live act by all accounts and from watching videos of his gigs.

Seen him 6 times already. No one beats him live. Tickets expensive but you will get 3 hours +

JP Liz V1

He one of the best acts live

hahahah Jeb Bush forgot to renew the rights to the domain name for his website so Donald Trump bought it! now if someone goes to jebbush.com they get re-directed to Trumps site.

now thats quality trolling!

Stereomaniac

Little things like that from Donald Trump make him go up in my estimations in ways, ha ha. He is, or the people around him are, in a way highly intelligent. He knows how to appeal to the lowest common denominator and to break debates down to real baseline crap.

gerrybbadd

Jays, that Hop House 13 isn't bad stuff at all.

I've just had between 8 and ten pints of it, and, can confirm, not bad stuff at all.

ShagNastii

Uuuuuuwwwhhh fancy new boards.ie mobile. Looks decent.

As is customary we have to give out about how great it was and didn't need changing- fast forward a couple of days to happy "us" browsing with ease.
