Lol.
More seriously, Britain by far is the best for roasts. Pig, Beef, Lamb, they got it all. English breakfast is just a lesser Irish one, so don't bother.
And if you don't care about your long term health, pork pies and pastries are supreme here. I'd gladly choose a custard slice over belgian chocolate anyday.

Wallet (Though if I'm just going to lectures I leave it at home)
S4 Mini
pocket tissues
Keys
When going to a party I also bring a pack of cards and a swiss army knife.
For fieldwork I bring my rucksack full of pens and paper, and a compass-clinometer.

Yeah yeah ISIS is the embodiment of evil and all that jazz, but let's not get caught in the hype. This happens every single day in Africa, Mexico, South America, China. Yet we only seem to care when it's near oil.
There's a video of some gay guy in Uganda getting beat up and then set on fire. Yet that isn't as popular as this guy.
Want to know why? It's not in our "best interests" to care. There's nothing really valuable in Africa we don't already control or stripped Africa of a long time ago.
And when I say "we" I mean the West. Not you and me.
Odd considering the African continent has arguebly the largest untapped mineral and energy reserves in the world. Just look at Nigeria and South Africa who are more recently benefitting from it.
I'm not seeing your point there. We don't control it considering the countries it's residing in have barely had a go at them either.

I don't know. Pretty unimaginably bad I'd reckon, seeing as I and many others gladly go about happy and reproduce with the knowledge that a lot of what you mentioned already happens daily. I still don't really understand the whole thing, but I guess it's because I have a more optimistic thought on the future that eventually suffering won't exist. I know it is impossible now, but the future or far future is completely unknown so I suppose I bank on that. That or it's the general feeling of hope, even when the situation is futile. Spoiler I have a feeling this may not make complete sense or convey my thoughts more accurately... pardon my lack of sleep.

lightening up.
I mean seriously, our history is plagued with killing each other for pointless reasons.
Some despotic leaders/warlords need to get a grip.

I agree with gootsby that it's misleading - sure, it has attributes from a 3rd party, but it is the basic blocks so that the child can survive.
It'll hardly change a child with white parents black if the mitochndria is from a black person, nor any mental state-change either.
Regardless of what they call it though, this is good news. One less problem to worry about.

Contradictory. Just seems empty and a reason to sleep around because you aren't happy with your gf/bf.

At least I don't have to feel superior about getting my new one two weeks ago.
And OHMYGOD it's so nice having 60fps on some games for once on high.
what gpu do you have?
I believe it's some integrated Intel stuff so it isn't fantastic, but it's certainly a step up from a potato. EDIT: "Intel Iris 5100" I think.

Not sure if under-rated, but of all the music on that game I think this is the most forgotten (though known at the same time as "The Santa Modesta party song").

If it's multiplayer only, I expect long lasting support (almost on par with those MMO's).
If it's singleplayer only, I expect a full story. Skyrim/RPGs need that at least.
Combos are troublesome, usually because they haven't enough funding or resources to cover both bases perfectly, although coop story modes ALA Borderlands are good compromises if they focus on story more than multiplayer.

I disagree with their energy plans, totally unrealistic.
Plans to remove all Nuclear Power plants and cover the 20% loss in national energy supply with renewables is outlandish at best given that everyone's a NIMBY and doesn't want a wind farm near them.
Then you realise you need 50,000 wind turbines to cover 6 nuclear reactors, and that we need more energy capacity and generation to replace coal fired power stations also (which is the majority supplier for the UK at around 36%).
In other words: Hahahahahaha No.

I don't think about it, it never comes to mind. Ignorance is bliss, isn't it?
I have thought about how far it's away, but thats another 3 or 4 of my lifetimes before I'll start thinking seriously about it.

The findings contradict a recent study
This is why I'm skeptical of so many "reports", "studies" etc.
They aren't as dependable as people believe. They should all be taken with a grain of salt, because a new finding can shatter it.
Thats how science works. Propose a hypothesis to predict the outcome and if it's right (with evidence), it's a theory. Then you get counter-theories that explain a process better or replace it entirely. The theory for atoms has changed many times since the first model for example, but it brings us closer to what is the "true" model. As for the time paradox, think Philip J Fry of Futurama. If he didn't have sex with his grandmother, he wouldn't exist. Only difference here is that the paradox is occuring over thousands of generations rather than just 1.

Other - my proposed system was in the other thread and I lack the effort to ppst it again.
Crtl C, Crtl V... not that hard to do.
It is when the thread appears to have dissapeared.

I mean seriously lol at the first one.
A minority of people in general are bastards that would do that (hell even I've been warned of this) but automatically they lay the blame on men in general.
The hypocriticism is too damn high.

Royal Light/DigtlZesty most likely, but thats on Plug DJ rather than here. Same goes for a few others.

Seriously though, it's one of those empty facebook posts that appear deep but are really useless. You should ignore it, and focus on the shite people actually say rather than social media posts that fish for attention or likes or whatever feeds virtual ego these days.
Also, how is using a shisha degrading to society or women's image?

I'm not sure what that would do.
The ISP's won't improve infrastructure, rename their broadband as cable or some nonsense, and charge extortionately for FCC defined broadband if they supply it at all.
That is, unless they've introduced some sort of cap on how much ISP's can charge for sub-broadband speeds. (I haven't really been following this too much, so pardon me if I'm getting this wrong or my assumptions outlandish).

Lol. Russia sends radial engined planes near the UK so they sent fucking Typhoons.
Why we haven't heard of the Scandinavians (or anywhere else in Europe) about this "incident" and freaking out as much I don't know.

A house or Uni Halls?
Halls are good to make a lot of friends, but depending on on thevpeople and the location they can be bad (Cardiff Uni halls are a bus trip away from the main campus for example), while in my case Uni-owned houses are cheaper and closer to the Uni (I can see the Uni from my house, 5 minute walk to virtually everywhere).
But if you live close to where your going anyway it makes sense to stay. I know a few people who have stayed at home for their accomodation at Uni and they're saving far more grant/loans for more important things, like beer.
