This is unbelievable...of all the stupid ways to go! Can you imagine the epitaph? Our beloved daughter, left this world when holding urine to try and win a games console...
OMYGOD!
"Criminal" or not, it's a pretty bloody stupid idea for a competition. And typically, the article then goes on to speak of the health problems associated with games consoles... was it Nintendo's fault some 2-bit radio station decided to hold a wee-holding competition? I think not!!

Or how badly do they want a Nintendo Wii? I mean, they look fun, but I wouldn't personally risk my life for one... :-/

Urine a funny mood today. Rest In Pee-ce.
Bleedin materialists. The body needs caring for, not abusing like a crazy chinaman. Got me nerves up now...I'm off for a ciggy.

Agree with your 'materialists' comment Yan2. Depressing and horrific (...and her name was Strange, though I suspect she was probably quite Normal and Representative).
Videogames good for the soul?! They make me cross-eyed and bring out the worst (most competitive, antisocial and obsessive) bits of me. Tell me how they're good for yours, Peps - persuade me!
Holding in wee is appropriate while teaching or cooking, as long as you haven't drunk 15 gallons of water beforehand and it's a matter of life and death.

Erm... okay, I'll come back to you on that one, Galf...

Right!
Videogames are good for the soul, because…
ï¦ they improve the problem-solving and lateral thinking aspects of cognition
ï¦ they encourage the notion that, with a little thought, all problems are solvable
ï¦ they enable one to release one’s dark desires through a virtual, interactive medium, so that they will then (hopefully!) be less likely to emerge in “real†life
ï¦ they are highly effective stress-relief tools
I am however aware that they can…
ï¦ be addictive
ï¦ encourage obsessive behaviour
ï¦ encourage the idea that violence is a viable solution to most problems
… so like many other things in life, their positive benefits are most likely to arise if they and their “utilisation†are approached with a healthy and positive mindset!

Video games were introduced to children by wicked parents intent on shutting the kids up for four hours while they drink coffee and surf the net for ego love...or a dirty encounter. They'd much rather be outside, pushing a pink scooter or riding with dad in a little orange, pull-along box on wheels, with a red flag flurrying with the breeze. Birds twitter, fresh grass, sticky finger, melting tarmac, icepop.

Yan2: 'They'd much rather be outside, pushing a pink scooter or riding with dad in a little orange, pull-along box on wheels, with a red flag flurrying with the breeze...'
Er, not really. I have to make my son get off the computer and go outside. He'd rather be playing Star Wars Battlefront. It depends on the child. My daughter plays Noggin or whatever for about fifteen minutes, gets bored, and finds something better to do, like play or draw. Chalk n' cheese, they are.
Peps: 'You mean this chap...'
That's exactly what I mean! Hubba hubba. I have him wallpapered all over my screen.
