Hahaha, yeah that's true. It can only be called a truck if it weighs 18 tonnes and has atleast 16 cylinders. That's my opinion.
A holden ute is hardly a truck. It may move people and lots of shit, at a very fast speed. But they generally lack a sweaty fat man wearing a Jim Beam singlet and a Western Warriors cap.
My mate is like 6 foot but his younger brother is about 6"4'/6"5'. We still pick on him though lol.
I would put up pictures of me but I don't think I have any handy atm. I can't even remember the last picture that got taken of me......I'll have a scrounge around and see what I can find. There is one of me somewhere back near the start of this thread though if you wanna go for a hunt.
We refer to fuel as unleaded gasoline. I believe that what you call LPG is what we call gasoline. I'm pretty sure it's the same substance.
Cheers for the input Goodguy. But I have to let you know that this is where I got stuck with Darkjay. LPG is short for Liquid Propane Gas. Which is put in your car under a pressurised pump into a gas tank in your boot/on your trailer. Whereas the gasoline you refer to is put in using a bowser into the side of the car, am I right? If not then you are probably right but we will have to try and find some way to confirm it. Because the term gasoline seems to be used fairly often over there whereas in Australian well.....no-one uses it.
I knew yanks was short for yankees, but I didn;t know if it was derogatory or not. I suppose "Red Necks" is the most offensive. Correct?
EDIT: And thankyou Jarhead, I love you too *mwah* *mwah*
Being an Aussie a lot of things are different here then they are over in America or England or where ever most of you guys are from. So I have a few things that I have been wanting to know.
The first and most important is this.
What do you guys call LPG?
In Australia we have Fuel (Leaded/Unleaded Petrol), Diesel and Gas (LPG). Now from what I have heard and seen on movies (despite the fact that they are regularly inaccurate) you guys call petrol gas. So I was just curious to wtf you call LPG. I have asked this question before to Darkjay and I think even Thasador but we never resolved the issue. Any help would be appreciated.
Secondly,
I know that you guys get called Yanks or Pomes as a slang/derogatory name, but I was curious to what you refer to yourselves as other than Americans or Brits? Because Australians call themselves Aussies. Oh and feel free to let me know any derogatory names for us, I'm hangin to know.
Thirdly,
Do you guys really have that long canteen line thing in school? Where you all walk up with your trays and stuff?
Because over here you just take your lunch in a pissy little box and go and sit in a corner somewhere. We do have canteens but they mainly consist of a bearded woman in her mid 60's who sells microwaved sausage rolls and meat pies.
And thats another thing. NO MEAT PIES!!! Are you bastards crazy? Meat pies are the best! Along with Vegemite, Tim Tams and hmm.......what was the other thing? Oh yeah, Jennifer Hawkins. Another yummy piece of Australian history
Lastly,
You guys don't really have that thing that shoots water up your arse do ya? Because that is just nasty......
Lol, well there are a few things that I want to know, any help is appreciated. And feel free to ask anything or just gloat a little about your country. Because that is what this thread is kinda for. Letting us know about where you live.
Damn this poll. I'm still not on it. Poor poor me.
Carloseus is winning. But he already has a custom title what will he win anyway?
Dude this isn't the custom title thing, or is that a reward for winning the poll?
And why are you complaining, I'm not on it and I have been here longer than you. Do you see me whinging? Nope. So don't worry, just let those in the poll get their 15 mins of fame. Or in Carlos's case, their uncomparable popularity lol.
Well that's a little odd then that you don't like it then because here I was thinking that only 13 year old try hards say stupid shit like "nuff said".
Chaos, let me know of some of the other games with screen tearing, not matter how minimal it is. If I haev any of them then I can double check to see if my card does the same thing man.
Does it do it in anything like Hellgate, COD 4, HL2, Counter Strike?
Let me know man and i'll see if I have the same probs.
100% Agreement with Murderface. He gives a very good point. If we all go into spectator mode on death then we could have some influence in the activities that go on in the world. Some may even call us angels.
Well I made it about 3 or 4 years ago when I started playing Diablo 2 online. I have always been a Link fan. (Link from The Legend of Zelda) and X is cool on everything so I made LinkX. o.O Ever sense then LinkX has been my name on just about everything.
Why does everybody think LinkX is a ripoff of AlphaX? x.x All they got in common is X. Its like LinkX are both ripoffs of X-Ray because X-Ray was around before LinkX.
Personally I think LinkX is cooler then AlphaX but, like you, I don't know where the term "Alpha" comes from. (Unless its simply from the phenetic alphabet...)
I know that you wre here before AlphaX was but I just don't reckon it sounds as cool sorry...
And I would guess that Alpha comes from the Greek alphabet. Also standing for 'The Beginning' as in Alpha and Omega.
@ Sofawall - 7/10 just because it's original. And I am assuming that the story has something to do with a sofa and a wall? Am I correct?
Yeah and because they isn't hundreds of people on here at once (because of time differences) then there won't be hundreds of different conversations at once.
Or you could always have live personal chat like some kind of Diablo3.com messenger. Like MSN but better!
