It's the new internet fad that is sweeping the globe: The 'Neknomination'. Once upon a time, a man downed a pint and filmed it on his phone. In his mind he thought that he was the bomb and nominated one of his friends to down a beer and film it. Like wildfire, this caught onto most social media sites as various friends will nominate other to neck a pint. Often people try to one-up their predecessors by concocting dirty pints containing anything between ketchup to vodka. I bestow upon you, my own, very unflattering, Neknomination video.
On a side note, that was actually our second take. First one we did was with two pints which I very nearly, unsuccessfully drank. It was just a poor display for anyone to witness. To my luck though, Mark's camera ran out of space halfway through the take, so I recuperated in the lounge while Mark went out to grab another pint.
This also meant that I was quite drunk at 2:30 this afternoon. However that didn't stop me from enjoying Gravity which I saw a little later one. What a damn good sci-fi film. Hell, I'd say it is probably the best space films of the millennium, just behind Moon that is. I loved how simple it was in concept but how grand it was in execution. The sound design was especially notable, you share every breath the protagonist takes, the only other audio being muffled by the endless void of space. It's also quite rare for me to feel that the film was worth every penny for admission - I felt more than satisfied to see it on the big screen in 3D, which is apparently, the only way to see it.
