Yes reverend. Do your best. :P

I don't know many that do that.

Maybe it's just some kind of "blue car phenomenon" for me then.

Blue car? Explain.

Copy & Paste from somewhere else:

Interesting.

Nice that I could enlight you. ;)

So, what I meant is: I saw one or two live DVDs/live albums with "destroying Wacken" (or "armageddon") in the title and didn't like it. Now when I see another DVD/live album with a similar name I think: "Oh gosh, can't you be a little more creative?" even though there might be not that many live DVDs/albums out there with such a name.

I see your point now.

:)

YouTube is gay. :P

Everything is gay. :P

I think it's because English humour doesn't translate well into German.

I think that's the case with all humour around the world. It just doesn't translate too well into other languages.

That and most Germans don't find slapstick funny.

Not necessarily an account deletion but Bees had all his posts wiped out. He was speaking to Wade about it on Twitter last night. I can't recall posting in any of his threads, though.

I don't remember making 30 post total in threads made by him. I, personally, don't see why anybody would want to get all of there post deleted. I regret making a lot of my post, but not enough to have all of them deleted.

Well, each person has a different setup for how they play their music in the car. I think this system works well and I'll continue to do so until I get a new car that allows me to connect the iPod straight in :P

Oh but for the car I would love to have a system with which I can connect my iPod though, because as I said I can only receive shitty channels in there.

They're not as expensive as you think

Besides, I got a few good car driving songs, like:
She Sells Sanctuary
Drivers Seat
Riders on the Storm

Jessica by the Allman Brothers is another good one. The theme for Top Gear. I also liek The Chain, by Fleetwood Mac, but that's the theme for the F1 coverage on the BBC

Is that from the accident you were involved a couple of months back? The one of which you posted pictures?

No, that one wasn't my fault - I was driving to cricket last Saturday and met a car coming the other way on a tight, twisty country lane. I backed up and reversed into a brick wall. That's ridiculous, I know, but I'll have to live with it.

So you backed up without looking or what? :P

The wall was about 3 foot high and right in my blind spot. I couldn't have seen it.

Oh looking at their discography they are still actively writing albums. Looks like Final Frontier has been their best album in Holland yet, followed by Seventh son of a seventh son.

I'll let you know how well it's received when I go to see them in Birmingham, come the 31st of July!

Apparently they were here last month. Odd that I haven't heard any of my friends mention it. They drove all the way from Holland to Wacken to Sziget last year to see them twice live. If they bought tickets then I would've certainly gone too.

Keep checking their site, they tour every year, pretty much and getting tickets is a nightmare, but well worth it.

Lol, that's how they did it at my sports club too. Wasn't a very good rule when we were kids though. One person always got picked on and they threw his stuff outside the changing room so he was the last one to finish.

When we were at school, we were teenagers left to run amok. I used to grab a quick shower and the lads all took the piss for that, so I just pulled my trousers on over my shorts, just like everyone else and grabbed a "shower in a can".

We still shower in a can at some cricket grounds these days. We would go in the shower cleaner than how we came out :P

So that's like... not showering at all and just put some deodorant on or what?

Yeah - though these days it's cover the smell, so you can get home and take a shower there :P

I myself just went showering at home eventually. Well until later when people weren't so childish anymore.

I always had to put the world to rights on that one - they give stalls for the girls / ladies, but communal showers for the guys. Now that's double standards. I bet there are some weird types in the female community that like to "check out the competition" in a mutual environment.

So I played it for a couple of hours this afternoon, but I'd like to play it again now and I'm getting the same shit + errors that the game is inavailable =/

Now I see why it's a bad time to play TF2 for everyone.

Yeah I think they're getting a huge amount of traffic around this hour, when it's early evening for the UK'ers and the Americans have been out of bed for a while. I think that game inavailable error I mentioned above is caused by their servers overloading.

If TF2 got tons more players all of sudden, then yeah, I can see it being a problem. I'm sure they have these issues on their top priority. They can let minor glitches slide but something like this needs to be addressed.

Girls just showered together at my club and they weren't so well protected. There were a lot of big windows in front of our dressing room doors so if the door flew open everyone could see you naked if you were too late. Also, there was a walking passage (outside the sports ground) right behind the dressing rooms and any creep could just get there with a camera and take pictures if the windows were slightly open.

The only time I might eat a big juicy steak is when we're at a restaurant, but we don't go there often. And she's alright with me eating meat. The last thing she wants is be an annoyance to other people with her diet so she'll let me have my steak if I want it.

No, I go in, get out and walk back to the pavillion. Batting is when you score runs :P

Happy 4th of July, 'Mericans!

I still think even with all that you need some fat and some meatiness flavor to it.

I could do perfectly well without XD

The only time I might eat a big juicy steak is when we're at a restaurant, but we don't go there often. And she's alright with me eating meat. The last thing she wants is be an annoyance to other people with her diet so she'll let me have my steak if I want it.

Do you think that's true with other vegans out there or is she the exception to the rule?

Plenty of vegetarians and vegans are kinda like that I think, but of course there are some bigots here and there. The kind who'll start nagging you when you're eating meat at a restaurant or wherever. Just know that the other half of the vegan community think they're idiots too (that includes PETA).

No I need Luis to come down. He's Mexican so he should be an expert on setting up a burrito business.

I thought he was more South American than Mexican.

I always thought he was Mexican =/

Pretty neat, but still not in the Top 100.

Congrats! Neat indeed. Prepare to stay around the 13.xx numbers for some time.

As for me, best avoiding this altogether. I had troubles last night getting any Steam games to start downloading and quite frankly, as a customer who has bought over 250 games, I deserve higher priority to download my shit unlike F2P'ers.

Well try downloading in the morning then. I had much higher download rates when I was downloading at around 11:00 or so than I had late afternoon.

On a side note, I think I miraculously managed to fix the game. So I can actually play it now :)

Certainly worth it, even if it were an additional extra, becuase you're driving away somewhere on holiday.

Well my parents both have a job so I can never really go borrow the car for long holidays. And I can always grab a CD or two from my dads collections if I know I'm in for a long ride. I'll check for one later though, when I get my own car.

Oh yes, I like The Chain. The other one I had never actually heard before. Sounds quite nice and ... optimistic.

Plenty of good driving songs out there. I'd recommend that you don't play "Drunken Lullabies" by Flogging Molly for driving, it will make you lose all rational thought and drive really fast.

Suiting title XD

Probably one of those concerts where tickets are already sold out after 30 minutes and you just CAN NOT get to the buy tickets page due to the servers overloading I'm guessing. Just like we had with AC/DC last time and some other bands we liked to see.

No, but we could only get seated - thank god, I couldn't bear to stand at one of those gigs, I'd die, or be robbed, or both!

Or get trashed in a pit?

I prefer sitting places as well when I go to a concert. I just want to sit down every now and again and stretch my legs a bit.

Girls just showered together at my club and they weren't so well protected. There were a lot of big windows in front of our dressing room doors so if the door flew open everyone could see you naked if you were too late. Also, there was a walking passage (outside the sports ground) right behind the dressing rooms and any creep could just get there with a camera and take pictures if the windows were slightly open.

Really? Let's hear it for 1990s Paedos then :P

Yeah. Also, it wouldn't be the first time someone swung open the door cause he thought that was his dressing room when it wasn't.

level 41!

While I have time I might as well make one of these before I forget how xD

Hehe, don't write me off yet, guys. I may be silent but I'm still slowly moving forward :)

Now with this behind me, I've got to push for bigger and better things.

Quick question: With the Total Stats statistic, when is it considered a milestone? Every 1,000? Every 5,000?

Cheers

Sounds like a sensible plan - make it a few more CDs if it's a long journey ;)

Have a listen to it - a totally awesome song.

That was basically what I meant.

I doubt my seat will be used all that much at Maiden - the backpack will get lighter through the evening, as I'll have a few bottles of water in there for the masses.

Every 5,000 is suitable - with the pace that some people progress through those stats, it could be every other week. Mind you, with a quieter portal, we see less progress to these milestones, but that's an acceptable loss.
