Pikey was not a word I was familiar with until I saw it on this board. I guess when you're exposed to them on a regular basis in your local pubs using it becomes second nature.Originally posted by sasguru'Ello, 'Ello what have we got here then? Oh it's only Bag o'Pus the neighbourhood pikey.

What? I have made a tidy living out of GOTOs. I also like to re-use variables as often as possible (to save on memory waste). I normally use the variable "Luddite" at least three times in any one routine.Originally posted by zeitghostAnd there was no twat about at the time telling you that GOTOs were baaaad...

I'm all for computers, but I'd rather that they had stopped developing them post 1990. I have some very good pre 1990 IT skills.

I hate technology
My mobile gave up the ghost two months ago and I haven't got around to sorting out a new one.
It's great. I'm no longer contactable while at the pub, on the train etc.
Even better, my watch has stopped working so I can blissfully wander around with no one hassling me and with no concept of being late.
If anyone gives me a new watch/phone for Xmas I will be mightily pissed off.
What technological advances would you be happier without?Tags: None
