JoeinAR 1,953 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 You have to pay to use public toilets in the UK? How long has that been going on?I remember the beaches in New England charging a fee so you could make a deposit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Code 000. Destruct. 0. 4,260 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I just asked the missus about it. Surprised I'd never heard about it from her or her family before.

Especially when they're kids and they think they're better than everyone else.Although there was one time my friend Joe, his friend and I played COD and there was this gamer who thought he was the shit and talking smack. Well he ended up being on the other team and the three of us ended up owning his sorry little ass during the match. He backed out of the lobby after the match was over.

Trent B 340 Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Unfortunately with COD Ghosts, you can't do "select > mute all not in party" and it'll automatically mute everyone else that has a bluetooth. You have to mute every person now. I hope they fix that with a patch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent B 340 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Ya I'm thinking about going back to Black Ops II. The guns aren't too bad for Ghosts but the spawn points are absolutely horrible! I've all ready lost count on how many times I've spawned in front of someone and instantly died then repeated that at least two or three times before finally being spawned where I was completely isolated. I also hate how I see someone comes around the corner and instantly die. Yet from their POV kill cam it shows he saw me way before I saw them, what a bunch of shit.

Sir Hilary Bray 235 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I will throw in either The Sun or 'TOWIE' ('reality show'). Seeing the frontpage of the Sun with something like "secrets leaked" with this 'glamour' model on the front. Closer inspection shows not something like nuclear launch codes but plastic surgery details leaked and two 'TOWIE/Glamour models' expressing "outrage" and "shock". Jesus.Oh and the MTV Movie Awards. James Stewart, Humphrey Bogart, Clark Gable et al to vacous airheads and cringeworthy 'bits'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
