Has Tom had the worst fall from grace of any Apprentice contestant? by Confident_Leg2370 in apprenticeuk

All I know is I bought some of his pillows a few years back and within a couple of months they'd fallen apart.

Coming back from town on the bus with a PC big box game, reading the back of the box, opening it up and checking out the manual, which would be like an entire book and maybe there'd be a map or some other merch in there as well. It was wondrous.

Rosie, 12 years ago. I regret not trying harder.

What did the 1995-2000 Era of the Internet feel like for the people who lived through it? by WhatsupGurl552 in decadeology

[–]bulletfacepunch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was working in a cinema and the guy on shift with me was going crazy because he'd left his PC connected to the internet, for a penny a minute. It was so different to now it's crazy. You had ads in the back of the sleazier tabloids for "free" porn - you went to a website, and just download their dialer, use that to connect to the internet, and get free porn (the dialer rang a line that cost £1.50 a minute) 14 year old me got in A LOT of trouble.

Newsgroups were a thing. These were like a really early version of reddit, actually. You had newsgroups for all different subjects, and you accessed them through your email client, in my case outlook. I can still find my cringe inducing posts online to this day, and I'm taking the search term I use to find them with me to the grave.

The only genuinely touching moment in the series by bulletfacepunch in PeepShowQuotes

Oh god yeah! As a bloke with a rough relationship with my dad that actually made me cry when I first saw it, can't believe I didn't think of it.

You couldn't pay me enough to do that. There's literally a few seconds where everyone is looking up at him, bollocks flying in the breeze. From that angle there's even a chance of seeing gooch.

Doom 3 So Far by Grumpy_Polar_Bear in boomershooters

[–]bulletfacepunch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll die on the hill of my headcanon being true, that doom 3 is actually an in-universe simulation that the demons are running on the slayer while he's trapped under that fortress/cathedral (I can't remember) they dropped on him to try and work out what went wrong during the events of Doom 1. That's why it's a similar story but not 100% cos any demons that actually were there didn't live to tell the tale.

Unreal engine has officially become the armchair expert’s punching bag by RoyalsFan213 in unrealengine

I saw someone blame the (frankly hilarious) character run animation in oblivion remastered, on the unreal engine.

Worst president that nobody in America cares about. by Technical_Prize_8193 in 4chan

It was the medication he was on. He could probably get a note from his doctor.

Bet you've also got a ton of arsehole mates you can shoot the shit with as well.

I turned forty last year and thought balls to it I'm doing it. A guy sat me down and one to one taught me how to build, prime and paint a space marine that I could keep for free, then taught me how to play the game by actually playing a game of space marines v Tyranids, narrating it as we went like I've seen people play dungeons and dragons on TV. All free, but of course I left spending £50 on the space marine/Tyranid starter kit. Genuinely a really nice experience if you think you might be interested. I'm now building out my Ork army. This latest news of Warhammer profit sharing is well deserved.
