"Clubbing"

Ditto. Plus: parties, alcohol, drugs, err, modern music, everything "cool".

It's only fun when you are buying something you actually want. Not food or necessities. That's boring.

Don't you get a bit excited to buy a DVD or CD that you really want? Or a new TV or summink?

I find buying clothing pretty boring. Anything else is alright, even food.

As long as it's not me who has to pay, of course.

Stuff.

I'd of agreed with you there, but recently have succumbed to taking part in one of those activities.

I hate drugs. One of my big bugbears. Lost a friend to them. Sorry but if you take drugs, you are very stupid. I say that with love!

That sounds quite ominous.

The alcohol demon get you then? He gets a lot of people. I think he gets commission. A lot of it from Ellie.

I haven't drunk since New Year I'll have you know - hence why the world's market has crashed! :)

Does that include the smirnoff you put on your cornflakes? :D

Did you stop drinking because of all the pot you've been carrying around Ellie? :D

I hope you get that or it's gonna look libelous :O

That's copyrighted by Godot now! :P

It wasn't a critique.

Haha! Touche!

I'm drinking right now....well just a beer really and perhaps one more when this one is done.
Things I don't get? I don't 'get' the entertainment value of watching sports. I love playing sports but watching sports for fun (unless it's team Canada vs some other country) just baffles me. Specifically being a fan of a city's team that you don't actually reside in. What are you cheering for then? The business itself? Because that's all it is then right? Well I suppose that proves how little I get about that topic.

I also don't 'get' the attraction to video games that are more story then game play like Metal Gear Solid for example. I buy games to play, and books and movies to get a story out of. Mixing game play with heavy doses of story just isn't my cup of tea.

Oh yea...and Hummers I don't get the attraction of driving around in something that big when you aren't planning on driving it in the bush. I'm originally from a small mining town in northern Ontario and my neighbor had purchased a used Hummer from the military and used it in the bush to get to his camp, collect wood and do outdoorsy kinds of things. I now live in Ottawa were people drive these cheap versions of the military versions and they don't look like they have ever seen a dirt trail let alone no road at all. So yea...I don't get why anyone would spend that much money for such a useless toy.
