The student who got caught listening to ladies go to the loo has his day in court
Aside from the lovely comment when he was first arrested along the lines of "it's probably for the best, I've been a bit weird"
It now turns out he was wearing a horrific mask and wig as well :D

"The MA student, described in court as an intelligent man"
hardly. who thinks dressing like female Fantômas is a good idea in the first place? he should have just dressed up like a muslim lady where you can only see the eyes. they are COMMON, exist, won't scare people, no one can tell who you are. muslim ladies are like modern day ninjas.

Years ago in my hometown there was a suicidal woman standing on the top of a building threatening to jump.
A largish crown stood watching whilst the coppers tried to talk her down. Soon a group of youths started chanting 'JUMP JUMP JUMP...' and it wasn't long before the whole crown joined in.
The coppers went mental. Happy days.

We had a cutter/emo type way back in the '80s when we used to call them teenagers
kept turning up at every party and pub event uninvited and whinge on and one and ON about how he was going to kill himself 'cos the world was so terrible and we were killing the rain forests and lovely fluffy animals and we were all so blinkered to the REAL world problems in far away lands blah blah blah...
One day (after a few beers) I just said 'Go on then, do it now!' and handed him knife (a steak knife off a plate) and after much threats, whining, stand offs and finally tears he threw the knife down and left.
If you were REALLY gonna do it A: You wouldn't be standing in front of everyone announcing it every weekend and B: You wouldn't be a vegan out to save the planet and spread the word about endangered species and the plight of people you haven't even met, you wouldn't give a FUCK about anything like that, or indeed anyone at all, least of all yourself, and if you ever get that low the way people behave is COMPLETELY different, they just stop giving a fuck and do crazy risky shite no one in their right mind would ever do or start selling/giving away everything they own, so when you see THAT in a good mate, start to worry!

I fear that the true story may never be known though. There is previous history of data recorders involved in Airbus/Air France crashes being tampered with. It would be easy to declare the recorders useless after two years underwater if they contained any evidence against the airline or manufacturer...

I have to read loads of crap about social media (work in advertising) and I get angry with people who think social networking is anything new.
What this made me think of, though, is the whole thing about entertainment. You read old novels, and after dinner parties the guests all do "acts" or performances to entertain each other. And now we have YouTube, B3ta, and any other number of things where people are again entertaining each other, rather than just using mass-produced entertainment.

no, deliberately avoided it
trailers made it look awful and barely connected to the game characters

The only recent adaptation I kinda liked was DOA, but that was for [ahem] other reasons...

Was that the one with
Holly Valance and Devon Aoki? The one that might as well have been sponsored by Kleenex?

I swear Japan is going to be the first country to be put on the sexual offenders register.
I like some anime but a lot of it is just about waiting to see who gets tentical raped.

Used to, started with the double VHS set of Akira and went from there
Now just get the odd studio Ghibli and anything that's based on a Masamune Shirow manga.

I guess that explains your skewed view of anime...
...if your main exposure is videos put out by Manga in the early to mid-'90s.
A relatively small percentage of anime is explicit adult material (hentai), and a small percentage of that includes tentacle rape.

I liked robot wars it was an example of Darwinian evolution.
Series 1 was the first generation when you had many varied designs then
some that worked best got copied and refined.
Though if you were to build a fighting robot, why the hell would you make it bi-pedal?

speaking of robo movies
does anyone else remember a couple of 80s films of a similar vein - Robot Jox and Crash & Burn? Both pretty ropey, but some geeky value.

I like the whole "vertical tank" concept but part of me keeps thinking it's just not that practical a way of dealing out destruction.

It's the same kind of reasoning
that tells us that the Earth is spared natural disasters because it's home to the Pope. And, sure enough, natural disasters never happen on Ea...
