Brands that despite not being very good...

[Setareh Juventina]

...enjoy a good reputation and have strong value.

The Body Shop.

It's a fact that The Body Shop doesn't animal test, this is great. However, they're also kind of known for having good products. It isn't true, especially when it comes to make up they're crap.

Love & Peace

The Body Shop must be the worst brand name ever.

The PS2 version is selling for £20, clearly they can't pay high salaries if they;re going to sell games at rock (star) bottom prices. I'm going to buy it, I fancy going on a killing spree this weekend. Alcohol, shootings and England limping out of the World Cup after being outplayed by Equador, it promises to be a great weekend.

Well it's the PSP version selling 3.5 million copies that's caused the bonuses to roll in. Put it this way, If I'd stayed there, this years I'd have earnt around 20k more than I will do.

WOE IS ME! Ah not really haha I couldn't care less.





Well, maybe a bit less

of course The Body Shop is a bad brand name; they don't even sell any bodies, for chuff sake


and don't get me started on 2nd Hand shops...

[joeloke22]

.....here in america we call "body shops" places were you take yr cars, lorries etc. to get an oil change or fix a flat tire.

and Playstation Portable too.

That Right shoulder button is a sticky, clunky piece of arse.

Nintendo DS Lite on the other hand is out tomorrow and it's rather lovely.

I'm such a nerd.

Hmm... I can't say I've noticed the right shoulder button being particularly clunky on the PSP. I've been playing "Syphon Filter" all night and it's been fine for me. Though I still can't get used to the tiny little thumbstick.

Not bothered about the DS Lite - I've already got a DS and it's fine the way it is.

Yeah, I'm a nerd too.

i'm on my second ps2. i had three playstations.

i saw primer! the sticker on it said something like 'an antidote to the dumbing down of hollywood' and i felt mucho superioso when i rented it.

unfortunately i need it explaining to me. it was good though, everytime i thought i knew what was going on it would change into something completely different. kinda. i felt mucho inferioso when i took it back.

i haven't got the internet at the mo. i got lots to tell.

soon.

ipod..looks class, and all that, but is it really better than other mp3 players available? The other thing that pisses me off about Apple in general is the way most socially aware academics use apple as if it is somehow less harmful to the environment or something, just because they are not microsoft doesn't make them somewhat a more ethical brand, from what I can see apple are every bit as ruthless in their business approach and branding etc..In fact microsoft's bill gates is a genuine philantropist from what I gather.

With the Ipod Apple are reaching Microsoft-esque levels of dominance and they seem to be running into trouble, there's that French lawsuit to get them to use less restrictive DRM and the one by Creative saying that the ipod interface was stolen from them. Plus they beat the Beatles in court recently, no-one messes with The Beatles and gets away it. It'll all end in tears.
