Have you ever met a famous person?
The only person I can remember meeting is David Emanuel, the man who made Princess Diana's wedding dress. Turns out he's old friends with my uncle too, so we had a nice chat in the Welsh Assembley Government building

Big edit:

Reading Napalms bit about the bassist reminded me I used to hang out with Funeral For A Friend, back when they were first starting out and stuff.. so I guess they can count for this question and the next.

I was best friends with one of the guys cousin. One of their parents owned a cool music shop in the town we all come from and we used to hang around with them upstairs a lot. Got offered like free tickets to places and to hang backstage with them too, but as I mentioned it was just when they were starting off to it was only like, small local clubs so I didn't bother.

Has anyone you know become famous?
I know a few people who are regularly on Welsh tv programs, but it's not like international stardom or anything. It would be cool if someone I knew ended up being pretty famous though.

Do you think you will become famous?
I doubt it, but it would be cool to be known worldwide for whatever field of work I end up doing.

In person, no. I did see David Tennant and Billie Piper filming Doctor Who once.

One of the people I went to school with is a bassist for a vaguely successful indie band called The Steers. No really famous people though.

Do you think you will become famous?
No, and I'm not aiming to either.

About 1200.

I think there's about 8 in Cardiff.

Well, we call it the identity matrix, but oh well.

[Lewi T]

For the record, we (myself, lecturers, people in uni) alternate between 'unit' and 'identity'...however, I probably prefer 'identity' since we just write it as 'I' rather than writing out the whole matrix.

Lots, I've seen so many in the streets of NYC. Actually spoke to a few.

2 kids i played H.S football (American) with are now in the NFL. And my Aunt is a big time modeling agent.

I had the chance to. I modeled from the age of 5 to 10. When i was a teenager they wanted me to go overseas, my mom thought otherwise. My Aunt to this days wants me to get back in it, but i cant be bothered.

Heres a random question that nobody will have the answer to...

"WHY WON'T DISTURBED F^CKING COME TO PENNSYLVANIA?"

*Bangs head against desk.*

Yes, I am angry. I've been waiting for them to come here for so long

What's coming to your town that you're interested in going to?

The only shows that I would think of going to are Staind, Yes, BB King, and AC/DC.

I really want to go to the damn AC/DC concert, but tickets are out of my price range...

I would get the $150 tix, but I wouldn't want to sit that far away...

Same here, except I prefer 'unit' (2 syllables as opposed to 4 ).

Hey I have a question.

xkcd came out with this comic-



Now on youtube you can click listen to Audio and it repeats the text comment before you post it.

Did this happen before or after the xKCD comic?

[LevesqueIsKing]

Pretty sure they made it before... I remember reading/chuckling at that comic before youtube comments.

[Napalmbrain]

Pity Youtube hasn't changed that much... For the most part it's still basically /b/ with videos.

Oh yeah, here's today's XKCD:

[Ryo Saburo]

Well, it IS true, ya know.
