I'd have to think hard when the last time I left London was let alone the country so I'm not too fussed about roaming.

I am hearing that the 3 reception is terrible.

Cex for buying phones?

That time again.

So after like 17 years I'm thinking fuck Vodafone.

I hear 3 do a sim only for unlimited mins, txts and data for £27 which is the best I've seen so far.

Am rocking an iPhone 4 and not too fussed about changing it except for a waterproof Sony Experia and most likely the compact version, I think 3 do that all for like £35.

So any ideas on what phones are good? Is it worth getting a new iPhone? Are there any awesome deals you know about or have you used an Experia and I so what are they like?

Also: electric boogaloo

It's a film about the two guys who ran cannon films and is a real hoot and a holla, had a grin fixed to my face the whole film.

Also related: it made me realise that there are a serious lack of boobies in modern films, why?

"In Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight, The Joker, played by the late Heath Ledger, is a charismatic and insane villain, who some fans believe was a veteran of the wars in Iraq or Afghanistan suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. The theory comes from a story The Joker tells Harvey Dent in the second half of the film about a truckload of soldiers being blown up. This might also explain the character's disdain for the establishment and his proficiency with explosives, a bazooka, and automatic assault rifles."

ugh, well first off thanks for that nightmare vision of the future which is worse because people will run to it arms out stretched especially if there's an apple logo on it and give me convenience or give me death, right?

i think it will take more than five years and many more to get to the jetson's standard of living. i imagine the rather more lame 'johnny cabs' from the running man to be the actual result, besides, i think you underestimate the london cab drivers union.

i think i saw a headline (but didn't check the story) of hoverboards being tested by pro skaters

now this is the one, if hoverboards come out before automated cars the future could be so many shades of rad, why sit in a box being shunted around when you can travel in such expressive style

people always wrongly assume that the best super power is flight* but if that's what the people want, then maybe it could be more conducive than a four day working week. world peace, here we come

people would love getting out of bed, obesity would be a thing of the past, recreational drugs obsolete and if it could be fuelled by some recycling element, then it really would be the shit

*it's infinite burritos and why do you need to fly if you can ride a bike?

Kind of late but the whole Rachel Dolezal scandal is the most retarded thing to happen to the media for a while. You oust a lady who was doing good work because she lied about being black? Fuck... who gives a shit. Identity and race is a pretty complex thing.

There are plenty of people of every race pretending to be one another. So many white dudes who claim to be black or part native, Jews passing off as not Jews. A bunch of inbetweeners when it comes to race and I'm not even talking about mixed folks.

Sure it's terrible she lied about being black but if thats what she truly feels inside and some people accept her as that, who is anyone to call her out on that. It's not like she did her blackface routine when she went to work. The way I see if she's willing to live the life of being considered a black woman and accept the disadvantages and advantages that come with that then let her be.

do not offend the chair leg of truth, it is wise and terrible

nobody likes being lied to
