[size=1em]Madness! ordering your drinks on-line, next it will be ordering your Pizza on-line or maybe your weekly shop. :lol

[size=1em]We are becoming a generation of lazy bastids can't even walk to the bar and carry your own drink to the table. FFS what is it coming to?
You see more and more gyms opening, more and more expensive memberships being taken out, people buying expensive watches that monitor how many steps you have done, your heart, how many calories you have burnt.
120 quid trainers get bought along with the fashionable tee shirts and shorts, not forgetting the white sports socks and their owners never jog or run, or see the inside of the gym.
I know folk who have spent an absolute fortune on training equipment for the conservatories, running machines, rowing machines, weights and there they sit after the first 3 weeks gathering dust and getting in the way by just taking up floor space.
We are turning into a generation of sedentary people, kids no longer go out and play, but, are generally in isolation sat in front of a monitor in the corner of the lounge or worse still their bedroom, not only does this isolate them from others it also contributes to becoming an overweight unhealthy generation, games controller in one hand, crisps in another, large bottle of coke in another, pizza that they ordered on-line in an other :eek foc me this computer game has turned our kids into freaks with four hands. :lol
I can understand buying/ordering drinks on-line and having them delivered to their table, I mean damn it you don't want to have to stand up and walk all the way over to the bar and get your drink and still have the chore of carrying it all the way back to your table, although it would not be quite so bad if you had remembered those 120 quid trainer that are sat out in the conservatory with the £3,000 worth of training equipment.

[size=1em]A game of 'Witcher 3' or Counter-Strike Global Offensive is not as healthy as a game of football or going out on your push bikes with 3 or 4 mates.
I am not saying that there is anything wrong with computer games they have certainly advanced home entertainment, but I can think of a couple of mates who's children (Young teenagers) have no social graces or skills what-so-ever they just grunt a greeting back to you without averting their eyes from the screen, you sit down chatting with your mate and then forget they are even in the same room sat playing Global Offensive with noise a cancelling headset on.
I dropped around to one mates place a couple of weeks before Christmas to chat about a bike related problem he was having, we sat in his kitchen mulling over a Haynes manual and drinking tea and coffee, we then spent about 3 hours in his shed chatting and checking stuff out on his bike, Gillian, Stevo's wife brought us out tea and bickkys (No we did not order them on-line) altogether I was at Stevo's for about 4 to 5 hours when I left his boy was still on the computer grunting at people.
Get a fucking life, get some fresh air, get out with friends, talk to someone, go for a ride on your bicycle, do the washing up for your Mum, go to the shops for her, tidy your bedroom you lazy, ignorant, antisocial, unhealthy, fat fucker :eek
Do you get the idea I am not really into computer games?
Sure computer games are fun, but not for 7 or 8 hours non stop, come on FFS, they cause frustration and angst, I will get past that river crossing without being blow..... Fuck it :eek :'( :rolleyes
That's my end of year rant done with.[/size]
