The Culture Cup Round 6 - new but not really improved

by Mind the windows Tino. Wed 23 Apr 2014, 9:16 am

First topic message reminder :

And I am beating Galted.

Life is good.

by **Pal Joey** Wed 30 Apr 2014, 4:18 pm

Thing is raf, I never felt so safe in a city of 25 million until that episode. The place is so easy to move around in and everyone seems so civilised and polite.

I was actually on my way to an Irish bar to watch the 4th Bledisloe Cup match... the one in Hong Kong which we won. It suddenly dawned upon me that the area (Roppongi) would have had higher concentrations of foreigners that night... so they obviously targeted the area.

The South African colloquial term for for schadenfreude is "kwaaa", which is a laugh released when someone fails at something (yes, we have differing laughs). Given the ban on l*l, I'm taking to using it.

You're all notified.

Best news I've heard since the launch of Faceb**k and Tw*ttter... two more things/words I will refuse to use/utter.

by Rowley Thu 01 May 2014, 7:40 am

First this morning, radiant in the glorious north today.

by **rIck_dAgless** Thu 01 May 2014, 7:45 am

Foggy as anything here Jeff, waiting for the sun to dust the old hat off

by Rowley Thu 01 May 2014, 7:46 am

It is here if I'm honest rick but like to be positive in a morning. Practice what you preach and all that.

by **rIck_dAgless** Thu 01 May 2014, 7:54 am

fair point Jeff, in that case...

Silvery an ethereal here in the mystic north

by kingraf Thu 01 May 2014, 8:02 am

While Geoff ignores the weather... a glorious Autumn morning in Johannesburg. It makes everything feel right with myself, and my place in the world.

I also hate you all for snatching the podium slots.

by **seanmichaels** Thu 01 May 2014, 8:06 am

Wetter than Jordan in a hot dog factory here.

by **rIck_dAgless** Thu 01 May 2014, 8:07 am

You are on Podium Raf due to the inability of me or Jeff being able to occupy 2 spaces each at once, so all round good morning mate!

Where I grew up it was always silvery and ethereal. Mainly due to the 30+ cooling towers at Drax, Eggborough, Ferrybridge and Knottingley.

by kingraf Thu 01 May 2014, 8:18 am

student night tonight, and I'm only coming in for the midday shift. Do you know what that means?

I'm getting laid tonight!! You can all share in my ethereal glow

I am actually quite jealous although Uni wasn't the best hunting ground for me. Work is where it happens (happened).

Windows, where did you meet the Lumberjack?

In a bar in London. It was my first year after dropping out of Uni and I had moved dahn Sarf to try and find a better job. She was working in the City at the time and we exchanged glances over a crowded bar. She was stunned by the shirt and jumper combo and ~~some rohypnol~~ some of my best lines later, we were deeply in love.....

How did you meet the racist?

Is Galted Gerry Adams?

Nope. I now start an hour later due to the supposed management where I work being f*cking r*tards and I had to have a giant poo when I got in as I was on it last night. Having muesli for breakfast but it's a bit late in light of what I've just typed, hope I don't do the anal equivalent of dry-retching.

Just gave it a go and turns out we don't. We do have to star "r*tard" though or it comes out as "special".

by **rIck_dAgless** Thu 01 May 2014, 8:44 am

So multiple retards are not as bad as a single special person?

Safety in numbers i guess, people feel less offended if there are multiple people in the same situation...

If you swap the Drax cooling towers for the sprawling metropolis of the Ineos factory then you're almost there. That factory site is so large it has 3 separate slip roads off the Runcorn expressway.

At least we were better than having a sh*tty floating bed and breakfast in our town though.

And Robin Reid lived there. And John Bishop for a while before he became rich.

And Shell Oil, and the Abatoirs that you have the pleasure of smelling as you are sat in the queue on the bridge.

Tino wrote:At least we were better than having a sh*tty floating bed and breakfast in our town though.

True, but you were more likely to suffocate than drown in the Runcorn waterways, so "floating" would be subjective to any retarded hotel on water

Went out with her younger sister when I was 17. She (her sister) then went out with my brother a year or so later before ending up with my best mate for 10 or so years. In 2007 I went to watch the rugby WC semi final with them all and the racist was there - she'd just come back from NYC. Pretty much stayed together since then.

Funny thing is her sister split up with one of my best mates and ended up getting together with another of my best mates. They now have a 3 year old who is my (non blood) niece. Bit f'd up really.

Indeed. That bridge always makes me smile. A bridge between Runcorn and Widnes. Why the f*ck would you want to go either way.

No wonder so many people a year used to get half way and jump off. I don't think they all started off as suicide risks, they just got depressed at their options left or right and took the sensible choice.

Too right. It was Galted's quote. This could get out of hand, with people making up quotes and attributing them to anyone they feel like

Too right Julius

I'm excellent at using the quote function. That and killer sudokus.

Below is an example of me effortlessly quoting Julius just for the hell of it.

Thanks. I need to close both of those silly accounts. I never post or tweet. If I need to call the rels in NZ, USA or Hungary, I can just phone them.
It may sound lazy - but I'm just not really interested in those stupid things to be honest. I never really was.

It's all too fragmented and a large majority of the users have the attention span of dust mites. I don't really feel compelled to say anything of importance to dust mites either! (it took me a while to realise that... I was just being polite) Laugh

I "quit" SuperBru today... or (I mean) I'm not joining any new competitions from now on. It took me over 4700 tips to realise that I'm just not into predicting thousands of sporting results anymore. I'm going let them all taper away. I'll just enjoy watching sport from now on (just liked I used to) without having any obligation to meet any more silly deadlines. It was getting way out of hand in a very big way. It was driving me nuts.

by kingraf Thu 01 May 2014, 9:13 am

Very well used Rick. So cultured

by **Galted** Thu 01 May 2014, 9:14 am

This how I quote multiple posts without problem.

She always confuses "r" and "c".

Gherkins make almost anything taste better. Much better than that salt option
