Some day's i just feel mentally drained been around them. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I remember once hearing two of the younger lads in the warehouse going on about a stolen car and a police chase and the excitement in their voices thinking that's come as a surprise and out of character until it turned out it was a computer game they were talking about. lol 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I thought that strange from a vegetarian. Eventually he admitted he had tried deer stalking on a computer. He genuinely couldn't see the difference between real life and a computer simulation Edited September 29, 2022 by DIDO.1 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I genuinely couldn't see the difference between real life and a computer simulation I was visiting my mate up in the highlands and me, him and his lad went to the pub. Played his lad at pool for a tenner (he assured me he was a shit hot pool shark) anyway he was shit and I mentioned that fact, asked him how often he played. Answer?, never played on a real table just on my phone. Needless to say the next game was for twenty quid. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
