Dude...he could've wasted 11 years instead on gamespot, what a failure..(it's been around since 1998 right? :P - I mean just the site itself). Then the other time he could've saved money with geico.

Wow o_O ""But at least I know where he is and what he's doing, so I'd rather have him there than down the pub." " Typical Brit there :lol: That's really impressive btw, and he's right - that time would have been spent watching TV so at least he did something productive :) I'm gonna contact him and ask him to make a 15ft matchstick statue of me 8) :P
