A bunch of people dug a manmoth out of the permafrost and ate it a while back, which isn't dinosaurs, but shows understanding of making science accessible. You could try eating crocodile, or alligator, or a wormdo But wait, I know what some of those animals are, but not a wormdo. Could you please explain to me in some detail what's a wormdo? |

An April 1st, I tweeted a picture of a load of my rare games and said that I'd just picked them up from a car boot sale for £1 each. I also included Nice Cats on the PSone which is terrible... part of the joke, you know? This morning the @gamesyouloved account has retweeted it to their 74.6K followers. I'm now getting loads of notifications from people who can't believe that I got such a great deal. So far, only one person has noticed the date I tweeted it on. |

Is it possible that people who spend large mounts of money for old, rubbish games are perhaps not the sharpest tools in the box, as a breed? |

Post subject: | Re: Bits and Bobs 48 |
It probably doesn't help that it took them so long to retweet it. I remember 'Nice Cats'.. one of the worst games I've ever played. It may have been aimed at little kids, but that's no excuse. |

The spelling and grammar that they're using confirms your theory. Also, I don't consider myself in this category as all my old games are ace and not rubbish. |

Life with MaliA n his thoughts: "I lost my debit card eight days ago. No biggie, I will call up whenever to get a new one. I quite fancy a pint tonight, I will go to Micropub. Oh, they are cash only, never mind, I will use wife's card to get money out....oh dear, I got the PIN wrong three times and bricked hers, oh dear' |

I realise it's not particularly fashionable to admit this but, having not touched an Assassin's Creed game after hating the original one, I thoroughly enjoyed the hour or so I spent with Assassin's Creed Syndicate last night. Obviously it could turn completely to shit as soon as the first couple of levels are out of the way--and the controls are clunky enough in certain specific circumstances that it's still a possibility--but it's damn good fun thus far. |

After pining after the new Zelda I decided to get Twilight Princess out for the first time in ~7 years and have spent most of the week playing through that. Good times. (Only increasing my desire for the new one mind you.) |

Yes, the best bit of the entire Assassins Creed series is the bit with the ships that's absolutely nothing like all of the rest of it. |

My favourite bit of Ass Crud 2 was when during the ending, when Ezio the player character says he doesn't understand what's going on and the mystic future being basically tells him to shut the fuck and listen as she actually wants to convey information to Ezio's distant descendant, Desmond. It freaked me out a little bit when it happened. |

Just had the mission statement from my new company's commercial director and I've never read so much rubbish in all my life. One of the three areas of focus is called "Reimagine the Future". It ends with the sentence "let's make a dent in the universe!" |

There are parts of it that if you read in a Bill and Ted voice are actually quite good: "Incumbents need to ensure core operations are running smoothly. Nothing should break. If core operations are not tranquil, nothing else will matter. " |
