I got 3 extra that are just collecting digital dust in my inventory, so the first three to ask me on steam gets one each.

Last night I went to see Frankie Boyle with my girlfriend. The opening act was Canadian Craig Campbell, who had a rather funny act about how Canada relates to Ireland, finishing with a long, in-depth story about the time when he masturbated in a tent on the side of a mountain in Alaska. Turned out the fit, young mountaineering couple he heard having loud sex elsewhere in the camp was actually a man dying of a heart attack.
Frankie Boyle himself was absolutely hilarious, although since pretty much every joke was NSFD*, I won't repeat any here.
I had bought tickets to see him in Belfast in October about 5-6 months ago, but my girlfriend found out he was doing a gig in Galway (which is a hell of a lot closer), we decided to get tickets to that. We had to pay around €70 for them, but that worked out to be cheaper than it would have been to go to Belfast and stay in a hotel.
I didn't realise at the time that the show was on the 8th, which is my dad's birthday. Had I realised at the time I would have bought him tickets too, as he likes Frankie Boyle, but by the time we realised they were sold out. I would have given him my ticket, but given the content of the jokes it would be awkward for my girlfriend.
Perhaps if he ever does another tour I can get him tickets for that.

So there's a new face for Youtube. Unfortunately, I don't seem to adapt to this new way of displaying videos. I was used to seeing the videos on the center of the page, and now I feel myself forcing to watch it to the left.
Is there a setting somewhere so I can put it again in the center?

Mohammad Rizvi? Packt publishing? What the hell?! Is that a member of TWHL???
'Cause I just read a message from him and I want to be sure it is not spam or virus.
P.S.: My e-mail was recently attacked by spam bots...but I don't have any viruses yet.

Wow...I haven't been here for a while! If I remember correctly, I first joined this website when I was about 14, which was 8 years ago. Doubt anyone will remember me. Amazing to see how this site is still going strong!
It's in no way professional, but whenever a client calls up because they have an error on their site, it is so tempting to completely over-react over the phone:
"Oh my God! What did you do!? I have never, in all my years as a web developer, seen a site fuck up so royally! This is a disaster. We're going to have to wipe it and start from scratch! Hell, we might need a new god damn server!"
Sigh. A man can dream.

Cyber Monday Shopping:
I'm at work right now and want to upgrade my motherboard/processor. TWHL is not blocked, but every shopping site is so I can't do any research on my own.
If any of you guys know of any deals going on can you share?
They don't have to be a combo as i'm perfectly capable of assembling them myself I'm budgeting about $400 because i want this to be an upgrade that will last me a long long time.
Hopefully I don't need to worry about compatibility of my ram and videocard, they're both under a year old and I think they'll work with any modern MOBO.
I also have no preference of AMD over Intel..

We visited the space shuttle Endeavour this afternoon.
We are fortunate enough to live half an hour from the final resting place for the shuttle.
