It's alright. Never got a birthday thread though, it's okay though, I'm not well known enough on Newgrounds to even constitute one, I bet one response would be Who?

Lol. Not sure how that would work without unfairly banning a horde of people AND without getting a wave of whinery from users who felt like they've been treated unfairly.

It might be better known as lahmacun. It's really good stuff in my opinion, especially if you put lots of garlic sauce on it. Not sure if it's available in America though.

Yeah that's not a pizza but does look appetizing. You might only find it in larger cities with diverse cultures like NYC or LA. I probably can't find one anywhere near here if I tried to look for it.

Basically it's a pizza rolled up, hence why we call it Turkish pizza I guess. The Wikipedia article does say it's mostly a Middle-Eastern and Western-European thing. It's also commonly available in Canada apparently.

Well I did sometimes, but I didn't HAVE to. We didn't have grass anymore after I was seven or so and we got a dishwasher eventually so that takes care of those two ^^

You lucky kid. I had to cut the grass each week and do dishes (put them in the dishwasher) every other day. And I didn't get any allowance for any of this.

Should've persuaded your parents into buying a dishwasher and getting rid of the grass :p

I don't know, some guy was complaining about it in a TF2 thread. That there was a point when suddenly a lot of users had a too ping rate which I believe basically meant that there was a lot of lag going on. It happened some time ago.

I have had some ping issues last year but I couldn't recall it being a major issue.

Well then I don't know what that guy meant. It was in that pretty heated debate about the community backlash of TF2 players in the VG Forum.

Well we had a dishwasher but somebody has to unload and load it and scraping all the stuck on food as well. Can't get rid of the grass. That would take more effort than cutting it.

Expos, I agree with - I'm not sure of the Astros, since it's related to their contributions from Mission Control for the space program. Plus, they always give the local headline Houston : We have a problem!

It sure is. It's hard to say if it's worth the trouble to keep the account. I'm hoping some will counter-claim and all the videos that were struck down by the same claimer will return.

I agree the ones that need to produce an address and phone number are the ones who make the claim. Several bored teens are going thru You Tube and getting things flagged and deleted so they will have these videos and no one else. Also they are doing it for spite and jealousy. Also because they are bored. {A bored teen imagine that}
Please remember this; for everyone that provides their real addy and phone number to Google to prove it is your video; it is one less idiot on Youtube doing this bullshit of improperly flaggin as Youtube will delete them. Its a big no no to pretend your someone else. Even on the internet.

Hmm yeah most of the Turkish emigrants move to western europe and they brought stuff like that along. You can find lots of Doner bars across the cities here.

Chicago style is basically a deep dish pizza, right? Sounds pretty good to me. Certainly looks filling.

I wouldn't bet on that. All the copyright claiming bullshit seems to get worse and worse down there. One day you find a nice video and the next day it's gone or blocked from your country or some other shit. Not to mention how they more and more often put advertisements before certain vids (like Vevo ones).

As someone who only watches videos it's bearable, but as an uploader I guess it gets really annoying from time to time.

Hopefully in the long run they are caught for false copyright claims. That is a huge offence and some kids don't know any better.

If I was providing my personal details to YouTube themselves, I might have been OK with that but the fact that the claimer will see it is enough to not go through the trouble. The video I had taken down was an effortless mash up of Nostalgia Critic and Irate Gamer so although I didn't own any of their footage, it still falls under fair use. Even if it had 500 faves and many liked it, I'm willing to let it go.

Fun Fact: The previous NG redesign came out four years ago today. Today would be the PERFECT time to release the next redesign.

But it probably isn't coming out today.

Oh man already 3 days since my last post here. Just to let you know: No, I haven't stopped posting here, it's just that I barely had the time to post last week. I had a presentation on Friday which kept me quite busy. And on top of that one of my friends got married on Friday. His wedding cost me a lot more nerves than my own, lol (also his stag night was on thursday, we went playing Paintball. I still have aching muscles today. :o ).

Catch up will follow Sunday or (which is even more likely) on Monday.
