Scots Go Hungry

Turn Off Your Phones, Or Else

I have a massive amount of respect for classical musicians, even more so now :) If you’re attending a classical concert etc, turn off your phone. If not for the enjoyment of others, it’ll stop you looking like the Master Douche.

Voice Recognition – Too True

Having a fairly neutral British accent, I tend not to run into these kinds of problems too often. I do empathise with those of you who are discriminated against when it comes to voice recognition. I remember my northern friends at Uni trying to get Dragon Naturally Speaking to work. Almost as funny as auto correct mistakes :) Enunciate people, enunciate :)

Pee in a Bottle? Seriously??!!

Pee in a Bottle? Seriously??!!

The Register has posted a very “interesting” article about WoW addicts whizzing in bottles so they don’t have to leave their PC. Although it’s referencing the Sun (a tabloid btw) and I’m not inclined to take anything they publish at face value, I think we can all believe this happens.

In all seriousness, I know games are important but lets try to keep some standards shall we people? Empty pizza boxes, miscellaneous stains on your shirts, mountain of cups/plates, these are things we can all accept of our geek brethren. Pee bottles are not :)

What lengths do you or your friends go to so you don’t have to leave your game?
