Everyone says they look disgusting but apparently are very nice. However we don't have them in the U.K. and they do kinda enforce American stereotypes when I heard about it lol.

It was good. Played a couple of hours at my mates earlier, the first ~2 hours of the game are a pointless, linear, boring, pointless grind and doesn't even count towards levelling up or anything. I'm sure the more I get into it, the better it will get. Linear or not, FF games always have good depth. I forgot my memory stick so I didn't bother saving it (As he's back off to uni, so won't be seeing him again for a couple of weeks). But now I've found my controller is broken, so I need to buy one of those too... Oh well, an excuse to get rid of my crappy sixaxis and get a new Dualshock 3 :)

Oh and a Parmo.


I always thought that a Parmo (i.e. This) was the greasiest substance known to man. I stand corrected.

It probably is greasier. This only has 32g of fat according to the KFC site. If I go to Wendy's and get a Baconator Double I get 62g. If I go for a Triple, it goes to 90g.

Wikipedia
2007 North Yorkshire Trading Standards conducted a survey of 25 fast food dishes. A large Parmo with chips and salad contains approximately 2600 calories and 150g of fat.

Lovely. :crazy:
 

:lol:

I was supposed to be having a healthy day today aswell, was out on my bike for ~2 hours. But that Parmo, A sandwich I had for lunch, plus a couple of fizzy drinks (Well, around 1-1.5 litres of Cola), means I'm probably around double the recommended calorie limit... oh dear :D I guess I burnt most of it off, but to be honest I would've done better if I sat on my arse all day and only had a salad with a glass of water.
 
It's about 500 calories. The sodium is through the roof though. Almost 2000 mg

500 calories just for the chicken. When you add the cheese, bacon and sauces you get close to another 500-600 calories. That's just 100 calories of my daily allowance.
 
My dad just bought me a 2002 Ford Escort with 50k miles for $2,250. Low price due to the fact that it had body damage and it will do fine for my first car.
 
@Event

How do you like the speed6? I've heard from some that it is a bit overpriced for what you get, but overall is immensely awesome.

Nah, for $18K I have leather, a great 200W Bose system, power seat, automatic windows all around, heated seats, keyless entry and more. the 270hp/280ftlb puts it over the top.

I love driving it hard... it handles it well. Goes straight as an arrow under hard acceleration. The steering is heavy, but precise. You have to really want to point the steering wheel to where you want to go. The clutch is temperamental and has a really high engagement point, so it takes a while to get used to, but when you get it right, its great.
 
fake beer. OMG those chinese are funny people LOL

bought an xbox250gb hdd. Overpriced ****, but needed it, cause i bought 10 games of a friend for a 50.

Planning a car purchase for in a month or 2 (summer time): 32GTR, 33 GTST, RX-7, Supra, still no plan...
 
A purchase I've had planned for about 5 years, I decided my birthday weekend would be an ideal time to finally get it:

Woo, crappy webcam photo 👍
For those unaware, it's a logo for the band The Smashing Pumpkins. I've loved them for over a decade now and can't ever see myself tiring of them, so I decided to break the tattoo taboo and get a band tattoo.
 
However we don't have them in the U.K. and they do kinda enforce American stereotypes when I heard about it lol.
The US has only had them nationwide for a week or two now. Give it some time and perhaps Yum! will decide to bring it to you too.

Is it bad if I have also had these? I think I might have had a Baconator just last week too.

Basically, when I see an outrageously huge and unhealthy food advertised I must try it just to see if the taste outweighs the health concerns. In the case of the Double Down, I don't feel it is worth the price. It is $6.99 for the sandwich, small side, and medium drink.
 
I spent quite a bit this weekend but dont have any pics.
