One of the best internet memes of the last decade.

Reworked - so it's even better.

Man - I wish we could get video embeds working.

What?

John, your impressive ability to stop a thread stone dead just never ceases to amaze me.

We're going to have to make up a dirty forums equivalent for the Godwin Law.

The Rodriguez Corollary perhaps.

Did you mean "Goodwin"? Tell me something I don't know. Your mis-spelling, if correct, is bollucks.

First word should be capitalized.

john should be followed by a comma(,).

and this sentence should end with a question mark(?).

And, no, I still don't even want dessert.

Grammatical critiques by a guy who writes: First word should capitalized.Brilliant. :D


Finally watched the Wassup video this morning by the way. My expectations were low, so I was very pleasantly surprised. Loved it.

There you go, looking for your brain again.

I've corrected it on your behalf. Re-defining shit is all the rage!

I really enjoyed the final moments - and the fact that it's the original actors.

Change. True.

I guess I also felt a little sad that almost a decade has gone past since that was released.

At the risk of turning this into a downer, I identify with that too. I listened to some tracks recently that I'd not heard since 1999/2000. Really upbeat music as it happens, but all I felt was utter sadness! That whole era (and specifically that time of my life and everything that was happening) is now so long gone.

Best way to look at it is, another 10 years time and we'll no doubt be thinking exactly the same about now, so just enjoy it and keep looking forward.

Haha, hear endeth the Jerry Springer sermon. :D

Yeah - know what you mean about turning it into a downer - because what is special about this remix of the original - is that it turns the past into hope.

Having in the last 2 weeks said goodbye to a grandmother and an auntie - I've been doing a lot of thinking about what's gone and what we've lost.

Funny to think that it's been almost a decade since I started here - and I've changed hugely. As has this place. As has the planet.

Ten years ago I was on a whole 'nother road - living large - single - riding a roller-coaster and partying hard. Now I own a home, married and work a regular job. New challenges, new parties.

But in the midst of all the pondering, and wondering about what we've missed out on - or should have said to each other - I have to hope. Each night, I lay my hand on my wife's belly and talk to my child, who's due to arrive onto this planet in early March. I tell them about my day, and how I'm feeling - and sometimes I feel them kick or move.

And that makes me smile. And hope.

On that note we should probably retire this thread or all the young ones will wonder why the old guys are being so boring. ;)

I could have a field day with this post, but I don't want to be accused of spreading filth. It seems that is only allowed in America if it's not for free. or something.
