Food and beer. Each has to be consumed with care so as not to damage the delicate uhm... yeah. And my training, I like to stay committed and focused... beer and a bi-weekly pizza is good for the 'nerves' (Not that a 16yr has any need to have any, but so what... I'm not complaining) ;)

After those thought provoking responses from Archie and Tab, I feel that I should add my own.

What do I take seriously?

Waking up in the morning.

This thread is all well and good, but if I could be serious for a second....
Should'nt we all be seriously considering more serious issues. This seriously undermines the seriousness of the serious senarios we face today.

No, but seriously, the one thing I take serious is that tennis player guy,.....you know, the one who said "you cannot be seri........ 8)

Grant you that O Runcornian - but as long as it lasts and is regular - like my bowel movements - I'll take it seriously -

Sometimes, over here, I can listen to it for hours....
especially on the pointy bits ( upover ) and on some yomps.

Things I take seriously:-

Passive smoking f*cks me off just about more than anything on this planet.......and that's about it really. Oh and the smell of an unwashed hippy. :x :x :x Oh yes and drug takers/dealers....they better also take me seriously because i'll f*cking kill them with a rusty spoon. :2gunfire:

Sorry about the swearing but as you can see I feel passionatly about these things.

Passive smoking is one of my pet hates too, ok they want to die of cancer that’s fine, but don’t take me with you :bad-words:

I generally ask then to put it out, or bugger off somewhere else, if they don’t put it out most of the time ill do it for them...

To keep up moral, the army knew most of it's soldiers wouldnt see the end of the year during the second world war, so it was a short term moral boost...

Plus very little was known about the dangers of smoking back in the times of national service...
