Re: A Very Good Thing Indeed.

"A bit drastic, but in the Ol' US of A, there's already so many of them, they're starting to trample each other chasing ambulances!"

Nope, they are bloody well driving them now!!

Sir Barry

I wonder how many men will nominate their Mother in Law....

Sir Barry

In the UK she would be up for Mother Of The Year.

Beer coz it's Friday

Sir Barry
Joke

Did you get permission to type that?

Sir Barry

When I was in the pub I heard a couple of chaps saying that they wouldn't feel safe on an aircraft if they knew the pilot was a woman. What a pair of sexist pigs. I mean, it's not as if she'd have to reverse the bloody thing.

Sir Barry
Joke

I nearly fell off my chair watching that ad

Sir Barry
Thumb Down

And the kids today call that music?

When I was a kid etc etc....

Sir Barry

I am getting sick and tired of these 'news' stories regarding Apple and their products.

When Apple create a product that cures cancer, then write about it.

I cannot believe that CSC is still in business. With all of the screw ups recently I'm surprised that any company would want to do business with them..

Sir Barry

Re: it stands to lose “trillions of won” from the leak.

I read that in the voice of Jonathan Ross...

Sir Barry

Hussain (aka "PriCK")

There, fixed it for ya

Sir Barry

I could not possibly comment on the length of the prison sentence without seeing the photos first...

Sir Barry

I wouldn't hand contracts to firms that are going to take the work overseas, how is that helping Britain?

Sir Barry

I think I've worked out what is going on. Apple have closed their quality control dept to save money.

The customerbase is a free worldwide QC team who can perform real world testing, and, they pay Apple for the pleasure...

Sir Barry

Re: I dunno, but...

Yeah, PhonePayPlus does sound dodgy, but they were originally called ICSTIS and are an agency of Ofcom specifically regulating premium rate phone numbers and services.

Sir Barry

I should have chosen a career as a patent lawyer, I'd be a bloody millionaire by now.

This is really getting out of hand and is patently stupid.

Sir Barry

Absolutely smashing news chaps, next mission... the moon!

Cheers

Sir Barry

"Teen hacker claims smut site hack: 'I didn’t do it for money'"

No, I would expect the average teen would do it to get to the smut...

Sir Barry

I assume Foxconn will be paying the inspectors bills so everything will be hunky dory.....

Sir Barry

"All involved may just chose to swallow their legal costs and walk away"

Screw that, the patent troll should have to pay everyones legal costs, that may make patent trolls think twice before going to court.

Sir Barry

I'm finding trying to understand all this a little taxing.

Mines the one with the tax return in the pocket.

Sir Barry
Pint

So thats what happened to the BT phone boxes....

and a Friday pint

Sir Barry

Whoo ooo oo ooo can you feel the force?

It's the Real Thing...

Sir Barry
Unhappy

Aaw, I'm being pre-modded, can I have my pint back please?

Sir Barry
Pint

Excellent news, have a pint.

Sir Barry
Pint

Excuse me people, but I think everyone has missed the real story here.

Italy has a huge financial deficit and this is effectively a way of grabbing some cash to help out.

Don't be surprised to see this same story a few more times, just change the company name...

Pint as I'm not working until 3rd January ;-)

Sir Barry
WTF?

People still pay for porn?????

Sir Barry

17 month trial?

Can my missus join the next test crew?

Sir Barry
Happy

@Shagbag

I did a google image search and would certainly volunteer to provide the personal service.

Sir Barry

ABC

"The price of calls for Joe Public won't be affected by either of the new measures."

That's nice for Joe, but what about the rest of us?

Sir Barry

Hmmmm

These domains just don't seem enticing,,,,,

www.dixons.xxx

www.argos.xxx

www.cocacola.xxx

www.ladieswhocannotaffordclothes.xxx

Oooh, wait a minute.

Sir Barry

Put some text here

Billy boy should take a close look at this, t could be a new revenue stream for Mickeysoft....

Sir Barry
Pint

It's very early and I have a hangover

He could just sign in as Tw@t....

Beer = hair of the dog.

Sir Barry
Trollface

Doobie doop da doop doop

Is she ugly then?

Sir Barry

orly?

"Not going to work. We are aware, we are free, we are legion...Expect us!"

You post as "Anonymous Coward"

"Coward" being the operative word.

You are either a trolling muppet or a Anon muppet, either way, muppet fits....

Sir Barry

@heyrick

As a language expert I can confirm that the tweet is written in Moron.

Sir Barry

L & 7

Help me out guys.

What's "public transport"?

Sir Barry

There has to be a title so here is a title "sigh"

His mum is going to be sooooo cross.

Sir Barry

<insert witty text here>

I upgraded to 50mb and got one of these pretty shiny boxes.

wireless = 17mb

wired = 47mb

I'm wired, wheeeeee!!!!

Sir Barry
Thumb Up

@ Graham

Yup, Google Translate..

It was supposed to be "Gerard likes golden showers", but both work for mw ;-)

Sir Barry
Pint

Mon dieu

Gérard ne comme les douches d'or?

Sir Barry

Not bothered

I don't bother with these channels, I use the rather excellent 'Catch Up and TV On Demand' service from Virgin.

I get to watch the complete series of a program, without adverts, when I want to and not at specified times dictated by the schedules.

Sir Barry

Sigh

I'm getting seriously bored with the antics of 'anonymous'.

This bunch of loose knit wankers publish the personal details of innocent members of the public?

Seems to me that they are publicity seeking idiots.

If the media stops reporting their antics and we ignore them will they just go away? In the beginning it seemed they were doing something for the greater good, now they are just causing harm to innocent people.

As for BART shutting down cell phone comms... Their stations, their choice. If it means keeping commuters safe then so be it.

Sir Barry

@Jema

I have read your posts with interest.

The amount of vitriol you show towards the police in the posts makes me think you may have an attitude problem which may manifest itself in real life.

And that may be the problem.

Have you sought professional help?

Sir Barry

I'm surprised no-one has said it yet

Must be bad to get into a sticky situation like this.

/coat

Sir Barry

I have to type something here

I think everyone is being unfair to journos.

After all, it's difficult to verify facts when you are in the pub.

Hic...

Sir Barry

I don't see the point.....

I think Anon and the breakaway groups have forgotten why they started in the first place.

What do they think they are going to gain by this?

I reckon thekeyboard warriors should come out from beind their computer screens and stand up and protest in person like real children, um, men.

Sir Barry
FAIL

Oh dear

Anonymous started out looking cool. "We are Anonymous, we are legion"

That should be changed to "We are Anonymous, we are morons"

Or are the cool ones at the top and it's just the bottom feeders getting arrested?

"CompUSA loss prevention manager Ronald Lopez"

He should be fired as well, not exactly doing a good job is he?

Mmmmm, Friday pint.

Calm down everyone, she was only doing her interpretation of Free Willy...
