The Culture Cup Round 6 - new but not really improved

by Rowley Tue 01 Jul 2014, 10:26 am

First topic message reminder :

May be an age thing, but is Sean seriously saying he talks to people with his testicles out to see how long they take to notice? And that doing so is a laugh?

Never thought I would say this, but bring back National Service if so.

F*ck off, Raf. We are talking bacon, egg and clogged arteries round here.

I think the 'What is your favourite fruit salad thread' can be found on www.verycampSouthAfricans.com

Here.

What do you want to know?

Are they better toasted or grilled?

I'm not angry, Jules. Just really disappointed.

Never thought I'd see the day Jeff. No-one even noticed my 'toast an egg' gag - they were so wrapped up in the seriousness of the culinary exchanges.
Hard to believe it's come to this.

Hey! I eat artery-incinerators as well!! Just last week I had rump steak, cheddamelt sauce, eggs and chips for breakfast.

by kingraf Mon 14 Jul 2014, 3:42 pm

Apologies Rowley, but since Sean left, there is now a vacuum where his alcoholism, and noble, but donned pursuit of Rachel was.

The "Hey!" not really helping your cause there, KR.

Yeah, it looks bad in hindsight... just as well though. I don't really eat steak for brekkie.

It is quite a fall from our heyday when we had emo poetry and brilliant but underappreciated puns based on sixities guitar legends.

This is about as vibrant as this place has been for weeks.

by Rowley Mon 14 Jul 2014, 3:59 pm

Did you have a good weekend Tina?

It was lovely thanks, Jeff.

How was yours?

by kingraf Mon 14 Jul 2014, 4:00 pm

Very true, Tina. Anyway, I'm off. Going to make some pasta with grilled salmon, mushrooms, and black pepper for myself and the vagabond who's taken squatters rights at my apartment... otherwise known as my girlfriend.

It was alright, cinema Saturday, made a Sunday dinner yesterday, but don't want to get bogged down with that, far too much cooking talk on here today.

I bet you had roast beef? Am I right?

by Rowley Mon 14 Jul 2014, 4:13 pm

Damn right Tina. From Aldi as well, their meat is absolutely fantastic.

by Mind the windows Tino. Mon 14 Jul 2014, 4:15 pm

I'm going to assume you made real gravy as well.

You'd be right to, Jeff. For all Tino's trickery and slyness there's precious little "culture" to be enjoyed on here. If it wasn't for michaels this thread would be the internet equivalent of the Graham Norton show meets FHM.

You should chuck it in and join me on 606v3. We've had an influx of 18-year-old Ukrainian girls all desperate to try roasting. As I've only got one John Thomas I'm looking for something to plug the other end. We can talk about Villa and alternative 80s music while we do them.

by Rowley Mon 14 Jul 2014, 7:36 pm

I may have to join you Galted. Will be honest when you first mentioned v3 I had my doubts it actually existed, it all sounded too good to be true. However find it hard to believe you would still be going on about it were it not real, that would just be tragic.

Really disappointed in this place today. I was having a genuine crisis of confidence. How was this met, by Tina making a rather transparent attempt to make me talk about cooking. In the glory days you would have expressed my pain through the medium of bad EMO poetry. You cared.

by kingraf Mon 14 Jul 2014, 7:42 pm

My dinner attempt was adequate. I'm bitterly disappointed with myself.

606V3 continues to sound more like the local strip club, although I suppose their Ukrainian imports are only "probably eighteen"

by **Union Cane** Mon 14 Jul 2014, 9:02 pm

You should have done the egg pizza Raf.

by kingraf Mon 14 Jul 2014, 9:08 pm

I should have, Cane, but it looked quite taxing, and I just had eggs this afternoon. I'm always trying to mix it up.

by **Pal Joey** Mon 14 Jul 2014, 9:43 pm

So what's for breakfast?

I can't believe it rained last night.

by **seanmichaels** Mon 14 Jul 2014, 11:00 pm

Lunch today.

Missus clearly wanted the burger for 20 euros and we came to a deal where I'd order the tomato and mozzarella salad and we'd share. It wasn't a fair share but my salad was in the top 10 things I've tasted and the chips were all time number 2.

What made my day however was the plethora of 18/22 year old French women with their white pointers out. Phenomenal. One even moved her mattress with Her arris hanging less than 10cms from my forehead. I was asleep at the time so blissfully unaware.

Had a messy poo today which was a let down

Jeez, even on v3 all they want to do is cooking.

F*ck off then.

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue 15 Jul 2014, 8:50 am

Morning Tino, I shall ignore the casual abuse as it is sunny here today.

How are you this fine day?

by Mind the windows Tino. Tue 15 Jul 2014, 8:52 am

Morning Daggo. I was about to quit v2 in a fit of pique but you've brought me back from the brink.

I am rather splendid thanks. And you?

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue 15 Jul 2014, 8:54 am

Not too bad cheers, the sun is shining, the thread split is imminent, life is good!

We have even had a michaels number 2 update, things are looking good for the culture cup, don't jump ship yet.

by **JuliusHMarx** Tue 15 Jul 2014, 8:56 am

Morning culture-brethren.

Happy birthday to me.

There's nowhere to go anyway. I tried 606v3 but that just appears to be Galted pretending to be a women and unsuccessfully trying to groom Jeff.

There really are no other posters on it.

As it is a special day for you, I promise not to make any derogatory remarks about your age.

Thank you Tino. Did you read this and think of me?

Are you bringing the culture cup back to food again?

I hadn't read that but what a joy.

Happy birthday Jules... just three days before mine as well. Well, three days on the date section anyway... couple decades on the year section.

Only a couple? I wish.

So what do you have planned?

A day at the races?
A night at the Opera?

What did Mrs Jules get you?

What can you get the man who has everything?

by Adam D Tue 15 Jul 2014, 9:15 am

A Lava lamp.

Chocolates and a couple of tennis lessons. I have everything except a good serve.

Jules was a young man in the '60's. A lava lamp may just bring back some painful LSD related memories.

No cake planned Union, although we do need to eat a cheesecake that's in the fridge.
Were you hoping to make a joke about there not being enough room for all the candles?

Thanks to all for the birthday wishes.

Not at all, I was merely trying to steer the conversation back to food.
