And it is also a movie a man hàs to watch once a year… Die Hard II is valid as well, III isn't. IV and V don't exist.

The greatest Christmas movie ever is any Bond file starring Sean Connery or Roger Moore, which should be viewed directly after the Queens speech whilst drinking Baileys and eating almost stale mince pies, or a tin of Cadburys Roses chocolates…..you should also fall asleep approximately 20 minutes into it. God save the Queen.

(Also acceptable under the exact same circumstance is any of the original Star Wars movies, the first three Indiana Jones movies and Superman 1 or 2).

Mega speaks wisely.  Although he forgot the joy of finding the last 45 minutes of the Italian Job on bbc2 when you come back from the boozer on the 28th with a doner pizza and snow starting outside.

I like Christmas Vacation and Bad Santa more than either

Got to go with Bad Santa. Not a decent human being in there.

What's grocery shopping like?

It's there some part of the world in which DHL is not completely incompetent?  For the life of me, I cannot understand how they continue to exist, when they make every package delivery a time wasting failure.

UPS is the way to go, imo. And PostNL, but I don't think you understand cause it's a €uro thang…

Does anybody know a nice and cheaper alternative to the Real Mc Coys sweatpants?

[Anesthetist]

I dont know what the RMC pair cost, but the Left Field makes some that are nice. I think MadMonday has some too.

I'm not quite sure why FedEx is still in business. They're pretty terrible as well.

^My local post office was open yesterday (sat) for collection only. Fully staffed but could not post. Explain that to me. Oh and they were empty other than me in there, to try post.

@seawolf:

Why are they making a Top Gun sequel?

Maybe recruiting is slow this year at the Navy.
From wikipedia:
"Movie producer John Davis claimed that Top Gun was a recruiting video for the Navy, that people saw the movie and said, "Wow! I want to be a pilot." After the film's release, the US Navy stated that the number of young men who joined wanting to be Naval Aviators went up by 500 percent"

It wasn't made to be a recruiting tool. It was made, and it became a recruiting tool.
