I havn't seen it, I'm sure it will be on the news tonight. But reading that a guy got a line drive to the head made me chuckle. Sorry if I offended you.

My god. I have created a monster. I think if I had restricted my vanity, I could have saved the forum a lot of personalised threads...

I'm not sure whether it is a good or bad thing, though...

So! Guess who worked 11.5 hours yesterday? Yep, moi. For a whopping A$200, I went to the Great Barrier Reef, snorkelled, made friends with this awesome couple from Yorkshire, became the idol of this little boy called Harry from Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, taught Yumi and Shun basic Aussie phrases (No worries, etc), and even saw a whale and a pod of dolphins up close. Plus, I won a free beer, thanks to my fanboyism of Pink Floyd.

So, Caroline and John are from North Yorkshire, and area about 20 or so. Great people. Friendlier than the English bastards on MX, no doubt. :p I started talking to them when Yumi (one of my students) was scuba diving. We played Top Trumps with Harry, a 5 year old extrovert from Newcastle. It was brilliant.

The reason I won the beer is that one of the crew members of the ship we took to the reef played guitar and sang in addition to securing the boat. He was really talented, which suprised me. Anyways, he said, "time for some trivia. Whoever can tell me who wrote this song, not recorded, but wrote, gets a free drink". And then he played the opening chords of Another Brick In The Wall (Part 2). Someone shouted out Pink Floyd, but he shook his head and said "Who wrote it?". Meanwhile, I stood up and started shouting Roger Waters. But I was lost in a sea of "David Gilmour!". Finally I started waving my arms and shouting "Roger Waters!" And I won. :cool:

---------------------------------------------------

Well, my mother finally returned from Europe. I picked her up from the airport at 4am. Fun! She had a great time, and took over 300 pictures. :eek: I also scored in the gift compartment. I got:

Designer clothes from Paris and Venice.
Two albums from the Virgin Superstore in London (Blue Oyster Cult - Super Hits, and Rolling Stones - Tattoo You)
An official Renault F1 shirt from the showroom on the Champes De Elyse (sp?)
An official Ferrari Racing T-shirt from the original factory in Rome.
A Paris University sweatshirt.
And! A new hunting knife from a castle in Germany. Mum tried to get something related to Hellmuth, but was told she was in the wrong part of Germany. So she got me this dagger instead. I'll upload a pic soon.

And that is my updated life.

Riva's day > mine

Your job is so cool.

So you get paid to show tourists around and socialize?

Sweet.

My 3 points against it being plexi

1. It is too discreet to be plexi. Plexi would have changed all the banners to pr0n or something.

2. Plexi always brags about it and there has been no bragging or even a sign of Plexi.

3. Plexi has been missing from the internet for over a month now. Plexi was in large amounts of trouble before he went missing. He could either be dead or in prison right now.

Edit:Jason I live pretty close to Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. Alsom get on MSN :p

nice life Jason, I got banninated... morbid jokes are not that which the mods find remotely amusing, and myself, hrothgar/butcher and IAJP got ourselves banned, the thread got to three pages so I thought surely it must be OK if noone has closed it by this point... I was incorrect in this assumption

anyway, all action here... I fixed my connection, hopefully permanently
but msn is being a wanker so...

and we have "changes" to the swear filter that you can find plenty of related posts around, so I won't repeat them old boy :)


well there you go, that's what's up...

Why was plexi in so much trouble?

Yeah, I noticed those changes. Quite amusing, but like an American comedy, it will get old very fast.

[QUOTE=Rothmans]Why was plex in so much trouble?[/QUOTE]
I am not going to tell you on a public forum for everyone to read. Also, I am pretty sure that Plexi wouldn't want me to be telling anyone.

OOOh alright sorry didnt know it was that bad I thought it was gonna be tame like brutal assault or drug dealing.


EDIT: I meant tame by its not exactly shameful and terroist wise.

Another amusing thing about the trip. The reef safety advisor who briefed us was a Kiwi. She was fairly pretty, but the most amusing thing was her accent caused some laughs as she said the phrase: "Only six can be on the back deck at any time". Basically, if you don't know Kiwi accents, they stuff up the vowels, so i = e, a = ie, e = i. So, what I heard her as saying was: Only sex can be on the big dick at any time." :p

Its nearly 3 AM and im not tired atall. This is getting stupid, my days are literally upside down.

Ugh, I'm sick of all these **** retards. It's like we have a new one lash out everyday.

In the who will be remembered in 40 years thread.

What's got this one so ill. Was he a fanboy of a crappy band or something?

somebody tell me what's going on in that thread. I don't feel like reading it because most of the posts are about 5 words long.

I don't know, I didn't read all of it but he was insulting everyone with dumbass things like "your moms sucks a donkeys nut" and stuff like that.

[QUOTE=White Goodman]What's got this one so ill. Was he a fanboy of a crappy band or something?[/QUOTE]


No acting childish and plain stupid and sadly we all played into his hands.

I seriously don't understand what's happening with the swear filter, can somebody explain what it really does?

[QUOTE=Moses]I don't know, I didn't read all of it but he was insulting everyone with dumbass things like "your moms bites the sandblasted carp a donkeys nut" and stuff like that.[/QUOTE]

Wtf, that doesn't even make sense. That's almost as dumb as that kid yesterday that had the beef with Steerpike. I don't understand the point of doing things that stupid in an internet forum. It's just a waste of everyone's time.

Oh, man I just got pwned by the new filter.....

[QUOTE=magicbus]I seriously don't understand what's happening with the swear filter, can somebody explain what it really does?[/QUOTE]

It changes words so that they're less derogatory. "Fa[font=]ggot[/font]" is now "large bundle of sticks." I don't know why this happened, and really, I don't care :p

:lol: Beef. Reminds me of the beef that fiddy' has with Jay-Z and Nas.

Im off to bed, goodnight/morning, as it is 3:15 am.

Lol, my basketball team, they have added street words to my vocabulary. I can't stop saying the words even though I hate them so badly.

You just want to be a fine african american gentlemen.

I'm absolutely hot on this new filter.

I'm trying to totally figure out the new filter...

As far as I know "bites the sandblasted carp" is s[color=white]u[/color]cks. What else?

EDIT: 1000 POSTS!

Basketball will do that. When I got back from NBA Hoop It Up, I watched MTV and didn't think that the people talked like retards.

Faggot actually does mean "a large bundle of sticks", so I guess that makes sense.

(I know it's going to change, but you get the idea)

[quote=trev]/trev expresses confusion over new filter[/quote]

A brief list:

fine african american gentlemens - nig[font=]gers
slightly confuzzled sea lions - pussi[/font]es
rutabegas - co[font=]cks
large bundle of sticks - fa[/font]ggot
squirrels - cun[font=]ts
I'm absolutely hot on - I l[/font]ove
bites the sandblasted carp - su[font=]cks
