The Credit Crunch
Did you score a bargain in Woolworths?
Meet someone nice in the queue to withdraw your 10p from Northern Rock?
Get made redundant from the job you hated enough to spend all day on b3ta?
How has the credit crunch affected you?

Goldeneye rules!!!
Goldeneye gave me one of the best moments ever
Sitting at home years back, housemate's annoying teenage brother arrives to stay from interstate, he walks in, looks around sniffing disdainfully at everything. Nothing is as good as he has at home.
TV's got almost no reception, internet connection's too slow (possibly because we were downloading bucketloads of porn at the time, but anyway), and the game console was just a N64.
"N64??" he sneers, "I've got a playstation2. It's way better. I've played every game on the n64 so much there's no challenge at all. I can beat anyone at any n64 game. They're crap."
"Really?" says the other housemate, who has, like me had enough of this.
"I'll play you in Goldeneye for $10."
And so the snotty little brat was almost reduced to tears as he was repeatedly shot, blown up and in some pitiful cases karate-chopped to death while he frantically tried to find a weapon or do anything to survive.
He hadn't counted on the fact while he might have been the best of his friends, none of them were likely to have played anywhere near the six to eight hours a day we'd been drunkenly playing Goldeneye for the previous six months.
The TV, he should have remembered, was almost useless for anything else after all.
