Now, your acting skills make me suggest the following, Stephen – don’t give up the day job. Not that you did a bad job, really. And if we factor in the scary furrowed brow, teeth-grinding snarl and generally imposing stature… hey, hang on a minute… Why do you work in the gaming industry? You should be on TV!
Stature… reminded me of something… I’ve probably mentioned it a thousand times before, but it made me chuckle, and I love telling the story.
The Levi shop at Swindon’s Outlet Village (the only place I gety my jeans) has, on the counter, in a little stand, a printed version of their returns policy. There’s nothing much unusual in it, just the usual waffle about ‘won’t accept items back without a receipt’.
As is always the case, it also contains the relevant sentence regarding your legally mandated right to return products if they are not “fit for purpose”. Except someone missed the boat slightly. It reads, and I quote: “This does not affect your statuary rights.”
I’m very glad that Levi feel that everyone has a right to own statues. Or have statues made of them. Or pose like a statue. Not *entirely* sure why their returns policy needs to bring this up, though…

Why isnt the Rangers favourite color Blue.. or red… or yellow?
Why does it always have to be green?

Have you not met the Ranger, sir? She’s very green. Okay, arguably she’s very brown. But brown isn’t as funny.

Unfortuantely i have yet to meet her… one day i will and i will steal her green… and replace it with yellow

Tell me, is that the pen from Goldeneye that explodes if you click it an odd number of times? It just looked as if it was going to explode.
Well, something was going to explode anyway.

WOFL: Wee on floor laughing.
I think.
You heard it here, first, kids!

So, will you be wearing a costume?

As I type this, one of my pictures is showing as the random Flickr pic. Damn, it looks good.
Ahem. Nerdgasms aside, you seem to have far too much fun in your day job. Makes me wonder how awful your night job must be.
Bring us more fun-stuffs!

Actually, right now, this is my night and weekend job.
