No, cheats! They should be photos you take yourself. So if you took a picture of a signpost for Craster, you'd be all good.

Heh, Craster is near Shilbottle (which is up by Newcastle if I recall). My dad thought it would be a good idea to cross the first 'L' on the sign to make it 'Shitbottle'. But then reasoned that probably happens several times a year.

Can you really spot yourself? That seems a bit of a cheat... Still, nice picture!

I don't see why not.

Although, I do have an entire collection of places that share my name (all from Holland) so you might have a point.

Good spot, Cras.

What did you see while you were there?

Cras · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 49184

Zombieland. It's great.

I need an ruling on one from yesterday .... My local tesco had chosen to play in their demo DVD player "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey" , which i snapped a pic of , and on the cover is obviously someone in the background who looks a bit like Grim...'s avatar.

Does the Avatar count , or should it only be names ?

Cras · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 49184

Gotta be names, man.

Wullie · **Joined:** 27th Jun, 2008 **Posts:** 6183

Do screengrabs count?

I'd say so, if you were watching it at the time and thought "A FORUMITE!"

Aye, I watched it last night to see the "New Carol". She's only been doing it since January :DD

She was in NotW yeserday. Looked fab.

I always quite fancied Carol Vorderman. When she didn't look incredibly 80s, anyway.

I'm really worried when someone posts pics for Jonarob

This probably doesn't count, but I've just spotted Grim...!

Knee dongs.

Isn't that a Father Ted reference?

Yes, and it's still funnier and cleverer than stamping "FAIL" on everything, despite being twice as old.

Oops! Didn't notice this post at the time. I agree.

Middle managers at my place are calling things 'fails' now. It's officially over.

I prefer the term deferred success.

Is "OVER" the new "FAIL"?

Father Ted will never get old. It's simply one of the finest comedies of all time, ever.

'Over' is timeless. 'Fail'* is an outdated attempt at capturing the zeitgeist.

* The noun.

Fail doesn't exist anymore. The lowest you can get is an A-.

In my GCSEs, I got 2xA*,5xA,B and a D.

People always ask what the D was for.

The cunts.

Heh - I got the same as that, but there were two extra As and the D was a C. People don't ask what it was for.

I got 1 A*, 7As, 2Bs, and a C.

The only one of those I can reliably remember is the C.

The moral here is that I dwell on my own failures, everyone else dwells on yours. Ponder that.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Mon Nov 23, 2009 15:16

I got an E in Art and an E in Computer Science at GCSE.

Who's laughing now you cunts?
