No thread yet? :tsk: Talk about a tournament of upsets! Sharapova (:yuck:) is defeated in round two by Kudryavtseva (ranked 154th) in straight sets World number one, Ivanovic, is defeated in round three by Zheng (ranked 133rd) in straight sets Djokovic, winner of the 2008 Australian Open and...

Yeah. I'm only capable of making crap photo threads these days. Anyway, I thought it might be fun to post our favourite concert photos! Mine are mostly awful. I've always had bad seats (with one exception when I was front row) and I'm terrible at taking pictures at concerts. but I'm sure there...

There was a thread similar to this some time ago. I just can't find the bloody thing. :madspit: I searched, believe me. Anyway, I found these old photos I'd taken last summer and felt like sharing. This isn't too far from where I live in rural Newfoundland: I miss summer. :( Now post...

Before I even get into this thread, I'd like to point out to any mods that I'm well aware advertising is forbidden at Interference. This isn't really an advertisement anyway. More sort of a general inquiry. My grandmother is currently visiting us from South Africa. She brought with her some...

I'm surprised no-one has made a thread yet. So, will it be Federer's year? I'd love to see him finally win the French Open. I think Nadal's going to make it difficult, however... It wouldn't surprise me one bit if he took his third French Open title in a row. On the women's side, I'm setting my...

http://mainstream.vincentahrend.com/ Why am I only finding out about this now? Oh, right, because I never visit the Last.fm forums. Anyway, this is really cool. If you have an Audioscrobbler account, you can enter in your username and calculate how mainstream your music taste is.

Today, I decided to back up some files I had bought with iTunes recently and got the following error: I restarted my laptop. After that, I checked my drive and everything seemed to be okay. Opened up Nero, burnt an MP3 disc without any problems. The error seems to be with iTunes itself. This...

One of the handful of people on this forum who can understand the phrase 'long may your big jib draw.' :wink: Have a good one!

Same thing as the 5 favourite guitarists thread. You don't have to list the 5 BEST bass players (in terms of technique or whatever), just the five you like the most, for whatever reason. Mine: 1. Roger Waters Not a wizard on the bass like some other bass players from the same period, but he...

Kraft Dinner, for those who don't know, is the only thing that Canadians eat. It is a putrid macaroni and cheese mix that you can do in the microwave or on a stove. Either way you do it, it's still an assault on your bowels. Only in times of extreme desperation (i.e. when your freezer is bare...

There is nothing better than a thin spread of Marmite over toast. It's even better when you top it with cheese. I know some people can't stand the taste of it; if you're one of those people, I think you're crazy. Marmite. :love:

This is a very good Canadian band, though not very well known. My roommate recommended them to me and I have been listening to them quite a bit lately. If you like Radiohead or Sigur Rós, you should like these guys as well. They're not exactly original, but they do what they do very well...

Hunt's "Dessert Favourites" s'mores flavoured puddings taste like ASS in a PLASTIC CUP. That's right. ASS in a PLASTIC CUP. I've never tasted anything so vile in all my life. Since the label said "Dessert Favourites" I was expecting to experience immediate satisfaction upon my first...

Forget poutine. (Only for a short while, don't be crazy!) The Canadian delicacy that everyone should be talking about is the nanaimo bar. I had the pleasure of discovering its glory today. A crumbly chocolate and coconut base, topped with a layer of frosting-like custard and crowned with...

Vee are hafing giant sausages in your honour, ja. :drool:

During the Apartheid era, there was widespread international protest against white South Africa and its treatment of black South Africa. Major demonstrations, economic sanctions and calls for an end to the white regime! Well, we're certainly no better off now... I knew nothing of the extent...

I think I've seen a few people around here mentioning that they enjoy classical music, so I reckoned we might as well talk about it. I did a search to see if it had been discussed before, but nothing, so here we go. Favourite composers? Recordings? Epochs? Most-despised styles? It's up to...

I don't think there has been a thread about Nick Drake here, so this is it. What do you guys think of the music Nick wrote during his short time as a recording artist? Favourite songs, albums, etc. I don't have all of his work - only Pink Moon and Bryter Layter, still have to get Five...

IS STUCK. Do you know how [i pissed off [/i this makes me? Do you [u know [/u ? :angry: Yeah, I could click those little tag things at the top, but that requires effort and what happens when I'm not at Interference? :angry: Before anyone tries to eat my brains for making such a stupid...

I like poutine. Who else likes poutine?

Paul McCartney and his wife appeared on Larry King last night to present their rather misconstrued views of the seal hunt. Newfoundland & Labrador's premier, Danny Williams, appeared on the final half of the show to give the other side of the story. Here's the run-down, if you missed it...

:yuck: :yuck: :yuck: And no one's even come in to fix it yet! Ah, the joys of residence life. I nearly threw up when I realised that it wasn't only my floor that has the problem. It's like this on every single floor! Ew ew ew ew ew ew ew. Any other university residence horror stories?

Forgive me if this has been discussed before (it has probably been discussed by me, knowing my luck) , but are there any blue crack addicts around here who are also Terry Pratchett fans? The Discworld series is perhaps my favourite assortment of fictional/satirical novels of all time. I love...
