Rants Back at Craig

You're alive...
You want to have your say too?
Add it then.
I don't know, Craig. Perhaps you're too old now to appreciate a classic film like Star Wars. It just passed you by. The second one's better anyway. But now I feel the need to rant. This is a rant page after all. It's this whole widescreen TV business. Why do people buy them? They are totally crap. You have a number of different screen modes (all rubbish). Either you view it as normal, but lose the top and bottom of the screen, or you view it as normal with black strips on either side of the picture, or you view it in squashovision where everyone on the screen looks as if they're built like a brick shit house. If anyone out there is thinking of buying a widescreen TV, then don't. Buy a normal TV instead.

wait a minute, i just remembered something - I was told Jeremy Spade or whatever the gay guy from airport is NOT GAY. Surely thats impossible. Its would take quite some evidence for me to even accept the possibility that was true.

You gotta get self-assembly stuff in terms of wardrobes, etc. The only way to get beds up is to buy the 2 piece stuff and then 'slot' them together. Anything that's a weird shape (really long & wide for example) has to be hoisted up and thru a bedroom window (Thank God for big windows or it'd be hell).

I don't think you asked that correctly..... Shouldn't there be something to indicate that the hunter is at the South pole and the bear is therefore white? A hunter can walk south then north is any place around the world.... Ummmm.

Craig, there is a consitent tone in your thoughts on the main page that you seem to be be very jealous of other site's successes.
Do you want all otghers to fail and yourself only to succeed? I realise you gloat about big IT companies going down the market.
Your motives would interest me. You said you hate those people who drive Mercedes, but you gloat about your BMW...

The subliminal message in the last Brasseye episode was removed (well I can't find it). It basically said that the head of CH4 (who posponed the episode due to pressure from wankers like Noel 'where are ya now' Edmunds) was a cunt. Yeah, we are really lucky to see it again. I nearly missed it 'cause I forgot to get this weeks TV guide.

One of the interviews from the 'Sex' episode was missing (can't remember which) from Brass Eye. There was, however, quite a bit of footage reinstated which was cut from the original broadcast, the most notorious of which would have to be the Sutcliffe musical bit.
