If we can't abuse our cousins...where's the fun? Having one nice new crisp Brit to abuse, is worth more than a dozen kangaroo chasers in a bucket of fish entrails.

Ah well, nothing ventured etc. Carry on. PS I stand by my original post, for what it's worth - very strange xx VERY strange. But loveable. Now if we had a decent set of rules up front then you might see that we were expecting some wit, some style and some abuse - good natured or otherwise. Picking on Boo was brilliant. A good first step. But knowing how useless he is, what a waste of time etc... you may have been able to be a little more "creative" in getting a rise out of him. He can be very slow, but kick him hard in the ribs, stomp on his head as he bends over to pick up the coin you "dropped" and generally berate him for breathing.... maybe, just maybe he might kick back AND give you a game.

Soddball Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 Originally posted by Nidan1: Quite a vicious diatribe coming from a country that doesnt even make cars anymore, because they were so bad at it. Listen to the man. Anyone would think I had insulted the girth of your manhood. If the Americans wont buy Datsuns and Hondas right away, the performance-starved Brits certainly will. You are in a tizz. Datsun was renamed in the late 1980s to Nissan, and offers some of the most reliable cars on the road. Even Land Rover, a vehicle the English could only sell to the Aussies, because they have no paved roads "down under", is now owned by the Germans for heavens sake. My heart aches for you Soddball , living on that constricted little island of yours, never able to get on a three laned flat road, and open up your 1967 Pontiac GTO covertible, and feel the wind in your hair as the 300+ horses under the hood (sorry bonnet) roar to life. You're right. I could never have any fun in one of these: The nice thing about British sports cars is that they don't need a 5 trillion BHP V-26 engine to whip the bollocks clean off a Mustang or Pontiac. They just need a bend. [ September 09, 2003, 10:00 AM: Message edited by: Soddball ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ye gods...won't someone deliver me from these large eared Aussie gits???

In these parts, you just kick back, put your feet on the steering wheel, and take a nap till you hit western Montana. Not like some silly little island where they make the traffic go in circles...

It's an Aston Martin Vanquish and featured in the latest Bond film. 0-60 in 5 seconds and a snip at £130,000. Vroom! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the Brits screwed the pooch again though. They put the steering wheel in the middle this time.

Hiram Sedai Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 Originally posted by Jim Boggs: Dear Hiram Yes, I can feel your pain (17-0) and I can safely say that it feels GREAT!!! All the best to the Sedai household, where sympathy costs a buck an ear. You know nothing of pain. Do you even understand what it's like to be an Eagles fan? You don't have an inkling. But then again, I think I'm arguing with a rock here. Since you barely have enough sentience to comprehend these words, I won't delve too deeply into the transcendence of spirt that each Eagles fan goes through while still a toddler. These thoughts would be lost on you. Do you matter? No! Why then am I responding to you? It's because of a weakness that I honestly confess. I tend to listen to the dimwitted masses and sometimes respond.

Boo Radley Posted September 9, 2003 Author Share Posted September 9, 2003 I have a splitting headache. Even though it was caused by those with whom I work, I hold you all individually responsible. (Excepting the beautious Ladies of the Pool, whose gentle ways are indeed as a balm in Gilead) But before you can all revel in my pain, know that I plan on going home and quaffing a nice cool beer and that those of you who are unable to do the same, must suffer yourselves. So, Neener, neener, neener. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
