I'm a twenty-something someone with a wife and 2 kiddies (Piper and William). I run my own business (PC sales) and am an armchair politician. I have been playing games since the days of MSX and Atari 2600 consoles, never owned a Game Boy, *hate* Pokémon with a passion, and have been involved in a semi-pro capacity in the past. By that I mean I was at the ESWC twice (04/05) competing in Warcraft 3, and also played Counter-Strike 1.6 competing (badly) in the "UK Terrorist" league in 2004. I am an achievementwhore, and have OCD-like tendencies with them (And now also weapon sets on TF2). Spend a LOT of time playing RTS, TBS and grand-strategy games, as well as RPG. Former fan of pen-and-paper RPG games (Palladium), Blood Bowl (team's on eBay finally). A long time ago I ran a gaming community myself (The Mad Gamer) and assisted with it's sister-site (Monkehs) - including gaming servers, radio streaming, competitions, etc etc etc........ I like many music genres (Not trance, no matter how many times I big-fish/little-fish to it), but stray normally towards either punk, metal or grunge. Favourite film ever is Full Metal Jacket (Used it as a training video on more than one occasion!) and finally I like in the arse-end of the UK: Hull. EDIT: Love the post-rank of "illiterate" - goes well with my fandom of the Clarkson books! |

Uh..... hello? MadGirls are present too Welcome to our cheerful community, we have nothing but madmen here and we all like pink ponies, shrooms and stuff. Hi B0FH. Does your name stand for something? Also Kevin Smith Rocks and so does Full Metal Jacket, I watched that again just the other day and found myself repeating lines from it this weekend |

Maybe in your day and age, but in this day and age people tend to 'change' the title, therefore Fishermen can become Fisherwomen! Simples |

Yeah, BOFH stands for "Bastard Operator From Hell" - I change it to a zero and Hell to Hull mind you (Can;t tell the difference in reality!). I watched FMJ far too much, and can recite the Paris Island scenes almost word perfect :s Still, came in useful when in uniform :p My mrs has gotten really into Kevin Smith films (Except Chasing Amy for some reason), now to start getting her into Monty Python! "He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy!" |

Probably the umptieth time I see this. No one ever settles with just "Hull." Surely it's not all bad? |

Post subject: | Re: B0FH |
To be fair the city of Hull is historic, fascinating, many shopping areas, and it's let down by one small factor - the population! Dole-demanding, scum-sucking algae-eaters (as Duke would say). Seriously can't bitch about them enough! |
