I came in here all set to give a historical lecture on the origins of the ARPANet and the pioneering spirit of UCLA, Stanford, Utah State, and...um...that other school.

Then I got caught up in Notepad Invaders.

This is actually a TV program screened on channel 4 at the moment.

I believe someone had their fingers broken on it last week.

:lol:

 

[Al]

Lol, I keep meaning to watch this show! Great game though

I too was also going to say what I knew about why the internet was invented :lol: :hammer:

I love Distraction. I'm not too sure if the constestants are actors though. They all seem a bit cocky.

It's Jimmy Carr which makes the show though. Dry sarcasm at its best.

Anyone know when it's on so I don't miss it? Thanks :wave:

Friday Night 22:30 or 22:35

I'm waiting for the toilet one again. Each contestant has to do a little wee in order to answer a question.

The naked people one this week was gross. Each contestant had 5 naked people (full frontal nudity - no pixelation, you get to see everything). They had to crawl under their legs to the back, grab 5 vests and dress each naked person on the way back. Repeat with underwear.

I came in ready to quote family guy. If you remember the curator's response to young Peter' question about why the Dinosaurs died.
