Roger & Me is his best by a long way imo - a lot less biased and more controlled in his style!

Cool. I'll check that out if I can find it. I only ever heard of that one, what's it about?

I've seen Fahrenheit 9/11, Bowling for Columbine and Capitalism: A Love Story. Never heard of Roger & Me but I'll give it a look.

Just back from MCM ireland. Was an enjoyable day, not as much star power at it as Dublin Comic Con and there were far less artists and far more vendors. Much prefer DCC than this but on the plus side, got to meet Too Cool for €10

Mate of mine spotted this up in Glendalough today. I had no idea we had lizards in Ireland!

Ex-journalist Michael Moore demands answers when General Motors suddenly closes the doors of all its auto plants in the Flint, Michigan, the city where he grew up. With over 30,000 people out of work, Flint is economically devastated, and Moore aims to track down General Motors CEO Roger Smith to make him answer for his actions. While on the search, Moore also chronicles the emotional effect the closings have had on his family and friends, while violent crimes begin to skyrocket in Flint.

Really good doc showing the devestation the closing of one plant can have on a once prosperous thriving area.

At one point he was sitting down and pulled a face and I could've sworn it was Jerry on commentary spouting s#ite

I know he's reappeared before and works as a fireman but Scotty looks like he could come back and have a decent run

Why do some pubs have toilets upstairs ??

If someone is drunk it could cause an accident or even an elderly person could be hurt.

Nearly killed myself in Captain America's one time. The only thing worse than toilets up/downstairs is places with dirty toilets, nothing turns me off a place more

What about McDonald's tiny toilets?

SureYWouldntYa

If you're drunk you can't fall over in them, that's handy :pac:

I have had issues with a couple of users on here from time to time. Overall though, I have great time for most of the posters on this board. But today I experienced some pretty harsh treatment from someone who uses this forum, on another social media site. It was pretty strange, and I found it quite offensive and even felt a bit upset afterwards. However, I don't want to name names, and I'll leave it where it was left today for the sake of our PW Board. However, I just logged onto Twitter to find this message:

https://twitter.com/Realsean5/status/639143872938029056

Does anyone know who this is? Needless to say, I'm blocking this person. However, that doesn't ease the concern I have after getting the message. Maybe this isn't the right place to post this, I don't know. But I have felt for the last few years that I am a part of this community that's been built up. I found this a good place to come and talk to people about wrestling, T.V, movies, etc. as I am not the most outgoing person away from here. However, this Tweet has really thrown me, as I have never felt I've done anything wrong on here. Anyway, if anyone has read this, cheers.

Twitter can be a very nasty little place where people can take potshots at you from the long grass. People who claim to be lovely and nice here can revert to type there and claim that nothing can be done about it here.

Just let it be known that if we deem a user is taking liberties against other of our forum users on other platforms we will be checking to see is it grounds for a users removal from here.

Bullying of any sort is completely and utterly unacceptable in my eyes.

Reopened.

Few bans have been made, warnings elsewhere.

Thanks very much to the mods for handling this issue. It was pretty awkward, but let's just move on! I'm sorry to everyone on the board for causing this thread to get closed overnight.

A lad came on here and started bad mouthing Sabrina The Teenage Witch, saying Moesha was better than Sister Sister it was rough....:(
Only joking I wouldn't entertain the individual I saw acting up on here.

Tech question but does anybody know how to move Microsoft Office 2010 account to a new laptop???
Or am I gonna have to ask them in PC World who probably hate me right now

Never apologize because someone else acted the maggot and tried running you down.

You should be able to install MS 2010 three times before it gives you grief - if you can't just install it on the new laptop with the activation key, you'll have to ring MS and get them to give you a new one (1850 940 940). Make sure to tell them you've uninstalled it on the old laptop

My old laptop broke and its warrant ran out at PC World who forgot to send it for repair from a broken hard disk (All my TV shows/movies/matches gone ).
They gave me a brand new laptop then Really like it but I need MS Office on it

Ach, so no product key I imagine. Any chance of looking around for it? Otherwise you'll have to buy it; it's cheaper for students if you are one/know one? http://www.software4students.ie/t/category/microsoft-office

Actually found the product key today but still no luck installing it. Still have my receipts etc so they can sort it out for me tomorrow

If you have any hassle use OpenOffice in the short term. Free and does pretty much anything MS Office can.

Especially since we all knew Sabrina was better. Though only because I've seen more episodes of it and the other shows didn't have Salem
