I did one. It's just a bit of fun. People need to lighten up, and other people need to have the common sense not to drink ****ing lighter fluid.

You think they would worry about going blind if they did either.

Anyone willing to shove a tube up their ass in public for any reason other than sexually deviancy is expendable as far as I'm concerned.

Dumb game. Typical Brits. 'Look at me I am wacky and I drink'. That bloke who died here - he said he had to “show who is boss”. Fucking knobcheese.

Drinking alcohol was cool and edgy when you were about 15. Why you post videos of yourself downing a pint, or vodka, or a mix of piss, pubes and gin, I have no idea.

I plan on showing who's boss by starting my own company and employing people.

That is, if I could stop drinking all the time. :(

Is there something in your life that is not in control? Substances can help us deal with physical and emotional feelings, which is when you know it's not just for enjoyment. I've been there (not alcohol though). :(

No. My life is great. I just find it boring if it's not augmented with alcohol.

"Igloo hidden on U of U campus allegedly hosted illegal activity"

Fox-13 Utah

SALT LAKE CITY – Constructing the secret spot required cold substances, but several students found themselves in hot water after an officer on patrol came to the door of an igloo hidden on the University of Utah campus.
A University of Utah Campus Police officer was on patrol and found the makeshift igloo with four U of U students inside, who were allegedly smoking marijuana.
The igloo was found in a wooded area near Red Butte Creek on January 31, and the officer initially thought it might have been a homeless camp. Sgt. Garth Smith with U of U campus police described the scene.
“What they found was an igloo about 5-feet tall, 10-foot diameter,” he said. “It had an entrance to it that had a cardboard door, they said it was about 10-inches thick, the igloo itself.”
Police said one of the four students inside had a backpack allegedly containing marijuana and paraphernalia.
“We don’t even know if they built it, they were just occupying it,” Smith said. “So we don’t know who built it, but they were inside of it.”
None of the four students were arrested, and police said one of them was cited.
The igloo has since been destroyed by police officers wielding sledgehammers.
The students have been referred to the university’s Student Behavior Committee, who will determine what, if any, punishments the students face. Possible punishments might include sanctions against the students or even expulsion.

University of Utah students caught smoking pot in igloo on campus - CNN.com

Quote:

Police said they busted four University of Utah students smoking pot -- in an igloo.

The igloo, tucked away in a wooded area in the Salt Lake City school's campus, was 5 feet high with walls that were 10 inches thick, campus police said.

"They did quite an elaborate job on it," campus police spokesman Garth Smith. "There was a cardboard door and a stick acting as a hinge."

The students didn't say much when police patrolling the area found them, he said, and it's unclear who built the structure.

One of the students had a backpack and was cited for possession of marijuana and paraphernalia, Smith said.

Though there were no arrests, the four were referred to the Student Behavior Committee after the January 31 incident, CNN affiliate KSTU reported.

It will decide on their punishment, which could include academic sanctions and expulsion.

Police tore down the igloo.
Best last sentence in a news story ever.

Could also be a result of not eating for weeks? If that isn't more than obvious.

Two men hospitalized after 'Legend of Zelda' sword stabbing | News - Home


Quote:

Thompson's girlfriend let the man inside. Thompson said he ran to the back bedroom and told the man to leave the house, but he refused and started charging at him. That's when Thompson says he grabbed his replica master sword from 'The Legend of Zelda.'

"I heard him heading to the bedroom where I was, so I jumped in the closet and I grabbed one of my replica swords, and I pulled it out and stood at the doorway, and he was coming down the hallway at me while I was yelling, 'Go away, you don't live here' and he just walked right into the point of the sword, I don't know if he thought it was a toy," said Thompson.

A girl I used to work with in Newcastle has since moved to London and started doing stand-up comedy. She posted this picture on Twitter of an e-mail received regarding a gig she was booked for, and it went viral. Pretty crazy how it took off. The likes of Jason Manford, Sarah Millican, Frankie Boyle, Gina Yashere, Justin Moorhouse and Sarah Silverman shared it or commented on it. It made the front page if the 'i' newspaper, and was reported in The Guardian amongst others.

Could be a blessing in disguise if she's half decent.
