It returns!
Whats a .bin file, and what media player will play it?...
It has something to do with downloaded movies, but i have no idea what type of files they are. Blame Tom. If I was gonna download a movie I'd download it in a format I knew how to use.

I bets its the type of file with no value or interest to anyone as it doesnt work and therefore should be 'binned'. the file extension is just an abbreviation of this instruction

".bin" is a generic filename that you find dotted around in various places. For example often an old Sega Mega Drive game ROM will be a .bin file (or a .smd, but .bin works just as well). In the realm of videos, there are two possibilities. One is that it is a normal video file created in a similarly-random fashion, of which I've had experience a couple of times in the past, in which case something like VLC or MPlayer should be able to handle it. The alternative is that it's a DVD rip and will be tricky to get to work (but this should only be likely if the file is appropriately massive for a DVD...). Try VLC Player (which I think you still have?) or MPlayer (which you may not have, and if you don't I'll find the link again) and see how they go.

TIIIIIIMMMM...! Kaoru killed a kitten in EVA didn't he? Didn't he? I know I remember it because I remember you making some joke about how it proved just how evil he was, and Jonathan doesn't believe me! The pedantic git thinks he knows EVERYTHING! He's wrong right. RIGHT!?!
he was all like "Blah blah blah I don't remember that" Which translates as "Emily you stupid girl, of course I know more than you" GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Dig out the episode, make him watch it, and hit him repeatedly with your shoe for the entirety of that scene. That'll learn him.

He killed a kitten in the mangas. Therefore, although he is technically correct in that he was talking about the anime, it goes to show that you are in fact more knowledgable than he is because you are aware of the nuances between the different Evangelion incarnations. I bet, for instance, that he thought the mangas were identical.

Hide a chicken bone in his lunch. Then, when he runs up to you choking, say "What? You want me to what? Sorry, I can't understand a word you're saying..."

Crazy does become more virulent in the autumn months, what with having old people with weak immune systems to incubate in and all.

oh here's a decent one; where online can I watch/download series three of robot chicken? I can't find any working links.

I know nothing of Robot Chicken links. In fact, I've ventured so little into the world of streamed video content that I barely know anything about that field at all. On the presumption you've watched the other series by looking in (what I guess would be) the usual places, I have nothing else to add. Anime's in a bit of a rut at the moment. The autumn season hasn't started yet and the summer was rather blah - Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (that GAINAX mecha show) is about to end and that's the only one I've been even vaguely watching as of late... You still haven't got round to watching FMA, have you? And news articles? Okay... news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/6990802.stm
