Ladt Grey or Earl Grey are the best teas. IMHO.
But I won't kill anyone if they disagree. Or even foul them with milk.

What problem do you have with wearing poppies?
Going by the tone of your post, I'm guessing you have one.

My real life girlfriend won't wear one because her great uncle or grandad or something was shot for desertion.

Easiest thing would be to get a USB caddy.

Too late!
Edit: and no. You'll just need to make sure the caddy is built to accept your type of hard drive. There's two types: SATA and IDE. Get the right type and it's Duplo again.

Get the wrong type and you'll feel a prick.

and don't be such a spastic. There is no point in getting a caddy as your hard rive is probably about to fail.

hard drives are pretty tough
unless it's getting noisy, there's no reason to assume it'll fail.

It's most likely he blocked up the fan vents with dust and dried spunk and overheated the motherboard.

I've told you this before, but you need this:

Damn those teenage laptops. They get rebellious and once where you had a proper daddy's girl, you've now got a surly bitch that stinks of fag-smoke and spotty cock who won't get out of bed in the morning.

Typical.

I dislike the enforced wearing of them in much the same way I dislike enforced stuff in general.

Also my granddad (who fought in WWII) would have been offended by what the whole poppy thing is turning into.

Some of it is because I feel it's become about glorification rather than rememberance
some is that these things should be spontaneous to be meaningful and when you get shit like that news reader getting in trouble for not wearing one etc, well it just devalues those who are making a genuine choice/statement.

I don't think it requires a whinge
but wearing a white poppy is mark of a fairly epic attention-seeking prick. Just wear one, or don't. It's not rocket surgery.

Rocket surgery sounds an ace job though.
