I'm just gonna invest in Law firms until this whole thing blows over, that's where the real tech profits are going to go.

I'm gonna go ahead and say zero, but I guess you can go ahead and call me Negative Nancy.

Film has made a bit of a comeback over the last 5 years or so, apps like hipstamatic are based more on the current alt lo-fi film resurgence rather than days of yore. Personally I've got about 15 old film cameras, mostly 35mm and 120 formats, and I get through 5 or 6 rolls per month.

Bit like 4chan, but without the child pornography, so yeah, pretty sweet.

Thinner, lighter, less fugly?

For some reason when I looked at that all I could think was "minesweeper".

This.

Agreed. A lot of the time I do rest my iPad on my lap, or on a table, with its smart cover, but that doesn't mean I don't hold it a lot as well.

Woohoo! A bit of love for uk post-dubstep. Maybe the US can finally move on from the musical blight that is skrillex-wave.

I haven't seen any harry potter movies, but aren't they fictional works of fantasy with wizards & magic in them? I suppose you basing your idea of English food on them is about as legit as me basing my idea of American food on Kitchen Nightmares.

Dude, I know you guys can do a decent BBQ and I love me some buffalo chicken, but the rest of my knowledge of US restaurants comes from this [en.wikipedia.org]

No need to get shirty, I'm only playing. I love the US, in fact I'm coming over to visit for a couple of weeks on Saturday. Your cell carriers are all retarded and horrendously overpriced though.
