      Jonny G Isn't that the whole point behind the popularity of the emoji? For people who can't use words adequately to get their point across? Sure they've become mainstream and are a lot of fun but ultimately people who don't have the vocab to convey what they want to say can now rely on the extensive choice of the emoji, and rely on them they do. In this case the BBC are telling the people who need telling, in their language, that this is light hearted and entertainment. Pretty damn pathetic really, don't you think?!

      I thought Franks reply was actually great. Although I do agree with Charlie. What I find in my life is that if it was completely up to me I would hardly do anything at all. My job forces me to socialise which I wouldnt do much of without my job, so I know my job is good for my overall wellbeing in this way. My girlfriend also has me doing all sorts of activities that I would rather not do but I do them probably so I can have sex with her and keep having sex with her ha, and I usually enjoy the activities when I do them, even though I would of rather not done them, that was Franks answer with the bonfire, which I thought was really good, but again I share Charlies view of life quite strongly.
