like the eating in the toilets bit, so what if they see you eating alone?

It's a little hard to relate to in that sense. Though I'm sure a lot of the blame shouldn't go to the victims of the social problem.

drivel. far too many people are wrongly encouraged to pursue their creative dreams professionally when they haven't the talent an should stick to it as a hobby.

And far from being Utopian, this advice is downright Thatcherite. His advice should be* 'do something useful and contribute. Look after old people, learn a trade, become a teacher, volunteer.

Finally, I'd have (slightly) more respect for this nonsense if the guy delivering it didn't sound like he's gone from being an Oxbridge student to being an Oxbridge don with nothing inbetween.

There's nothing that really stands out as a ball breaking tune of the last ten years for me though. So I'll either go for Radiohead or Animal Collective.

This is a normal post Yeah, a lot of those bands have released better things that i've liked in that time.
Still, looking through there are some great tracks in there, maybe not groundbreaking (if that's what you mean) but just lovely tracks.

This is a normal post Yeah, it's all good really.
As a list of artists to hear on a radio station is all pretty damn good. With the exception perhaps of Coldplay and La roux.
EDIT - No, I meant ball breaking. As in something that grabs you by the balls and squeezes 'em real tight. Like Teen Spirit. But, not that obviously. But something like that. Maybe I'm just getting old. I'm pining for the 90s.

This is a normal post Can't remember the last time i heard something that really grabbed me on the radio to be honest.
There are some toe-tappers in there though, matter of opinion/taste i guess, as you say, the artists on there are good enough promotion for Radio 6 as a station.

I listen to a local station here, it's fucking brilliant, played loads of local bands that have gone on to be pretty big, they never say who they're playing or have just played though, it's really fucking frustrating!!!

The only one you hear anything from is some guy who can't get a child minder so brings his kid along, he only says anything as you sense his kid's getting bored and he has to keep him amused, occasionally you'll hear a mic come on half way through a track and the little kid saying random stuff until his dad realises and turns the mic off quickly.

This is a normal post Well it's a good list but flawed.
There are too many examples in there where they've simply chosen the wrong song by that artist.

I think it's basically Hot Stuff Glows; and that Hotter Stuff Glows More.

Presumably: increasingly Hotter Stuff will first shine Infra-red light, then visible light, then UV light, and so on up the electromagnetic spectrum.

I learned about this just before xmas at a warwick uni xmas physics lecture thingy. The Leidenfrost Effect means you can quickly dip you hand int a vat of liquid nitrogen without it freezing. basically the massive difference in temperature means there is an insulating layer of gas between the hot object and the cold object (which is easily visible in he video above), first time i'e actualy seen it visibly though.

small and large that were using this loophole to retain a profit while undercutting the highstreet.

Used them for a lot of stuff, but they mucked up a couple of highly-anticipated preorders, so I went elsewhere.

Not really a loss, I don't think they've been consistently cheaper than anywhere else, plus their returns were quite expensive because you had to ship it overseas for a refund.
