When you're playing the Formula Gran Turismo tournament.. six races, 20 laps each. And you come first in four out of five races, and last in one of them... you're then on the last race and need to come at least 8th to get gold in the tounament.. shouldn't be too hard, right?

Crashed in the first lap, 25 seconds behind. Spent the next 17 laps SLOWLY catching up, thinking yeh I can do it.. 18th lap, so close, and I spin out. All hope is lost.

I then get silver in tournament... meaning if I want gold, I need to do all 120 laps, again! ARGH

They only use that word to try and make themselves look and feel superior infront of the type of people that really couldn't give a fuck!
Ummm - I can assure you that I don't use it to feel superior . . . .

Just for you Russ

Luddite
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Leader of the Luddites, engraving of 1812

The Luddites were a social movement of British textile artisans in the nineteenth century who protested – often by destroying mechanized looms – against the changes produced by the Industrial Revolution, which they felt were leaving them without work and changing their way of life. It took its name from Ned Ludd.

The movement emerged in the harsh economic climate of the Napoleonic Wars and difficult working conditions in the new textile factories. The principal objection of the Luddites was to the introduction of new wide-framed automated looms that could be operated by cheap, relatively unskilled labour, resulting in the loss of jobs for many skilled textile workers. The movement began in 1811 and 1812, when mills and pieces of factory machinery were burned by handloom weavers, and for a short time was so strong that Luddites clashed in battles with the British Army. Measures taken by the British government to suppress the movement included a mass trial at York in 1812 that resulted in many executions and penal transportations.

The action of destroying new machines had a long tradition before the Luddites, especially within the textile industry. Many inventors of the 18th century were attacked by vested interests who were threatened by new and more efficient ways of making yarn and cloth. Samuel Crompton, for example, had to hide his new spinning mule in the roof of his house at Hall i' th' Wood in 1779 to prevent it being destroyed by the mob.

In modern usage, "Luddite" is a term describing those opposed to industrialisation, automation, computerisation or new technologies in general.[1]

I'd show some sympathy but it wouldn't seem genuine when I'm on the floor laughing my ass off
