some lame commercial band who can barely play

Whatever else you might think of Dire Straits, to say they can barely play illustrates a spectacular lack of understanding of musical ability.

Some of those suspenders are inked on - or is it a new tattoo fashion?

It seems that some tights have a suspender pattern. Though I am not an expert - maybe I should look into ladies underwear a bit more.

These 'students' are drinking and partying out of our taxes ...

Sounds like a good use of taxpayers money to me.

Phwoar. Not. In fact for 18yo girls they're collectively a remarkably ugly lot if those photos are representative.

Yes, but after a few pints, you'd be mad not to !!

ever feel like you are in a minority?

Oh, I know I am in the minority. But not following some lame commercial band who can barely play to their oh-so-deep lyrics is something I'm proud of.

Similarly, lots of people watch the X-Factor. I'm not one of them.

Carry on granddad, spin another disc. Here are some suggestions you'll love:

Anyone who instantly thinks of Dire Straits should go and kill themselves immediately

Brothers in Arms was the first album to sell one million copies in the CD format and to outsell its LP version. A Rykodisc employee would subsequently write, "[In 1985 we] were fighting to get our CDs manufactured because the entire worldwide manufacturing capacity was overwhelmed by demand for a single rock title (Dire Straits' Brothers in Arms)."

In 1986, Brothers In Arms won two Grammy Awards at the 28th Grammy Awards, and also won Best British Album at the 1987 Brit Awards.[12][13] In 2000, Q magazine placed the album at number 51 in its list of the 100 Greatest British Albums Ever.[14] In 2003, the album ranked number 351 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time".[15]

Looks like a few women I could do without the need for rohypnol.

I've seen some in far worse states than that in Cardiff that's for sure

Love the way some have stopped and posed for the pics, but let's be clear a lot of students that attend Cardiff Uni are from China
