Johno Posted January 9, 2009 Report Posted January 9, 2009 This sort of shit grinds my gears! http://news.ninemsn.com.au/national/716402...t-myspace-party first off, I was under the impression to hold a part and willingly charge admission was against the law (not to mention mr tax man would love to have a chat!) they have no insurance, no building/fire inspections so therefore no fire escapes etc etc. Then the father has the hide to say that the coppers started the problems by trying to shut the party down! we have all been there, at the party when the coppers turn up and tell everyone to shutup or go home. But its only once the shoe is on the other foot you realise WHY they have to do so and the fact that unless all your neighbours are informed and ok with it, then its never going to go down well (much like dfunkts music loving feral neighbours.) to me, something with 200 people in attendance is never going to end well, either when the coppers break it up, or if they didnt, when too much grog and testosterone starts to fire up after midnight (witching hour) Hell, whats to bet the 14 year olds at the party were pissed as newts and half the girls were there to slut themselves around with older guys? I thought people would have learned from "Corie's Party" in Narre warren. Your just asking for trouble with open house party's over the internet. Quote

Trev Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 What Grinds My Gears: Grip. Ever since NFS:Pro Street came out, all the sick-toons and hektik mob are calling normal track and road racing "grip" to try and differentiate it from "drift". Notice how there was never the need for this distinction before NFS:PS came along, even when drift came around. it was just normal "racing", or even just "driving". On a similar vein, why the f*ck does everything have to be shortened these days to make it "catchier". I'm referring mainly to TV shows here, which have a full-length title but are always shortened in the ads, like "All new eps of Dance" (So You Can Think You Can Dance), or "Supermodel" (Make Me A Supermodel), "Top Model" (America's Next Top Model), "Deal" (Deal Or No Deal). FFS, how had is it to say the full name of a show? If the producers wanted the show to have a short name, they would have GIVEN it a short name. But everything has to be "edgy" and "hip" these days (notice how most of the shows which suffer this problem are either primetime, reality or soapy dramas). You don't see "uncool" shows getting shortened though, like "All the latest eps of 7:30" (The 7:30 Report). And another thing, why the hell does "episodes" have to get shortened to "eps" as well? I wince everytime I hear that. Once again, the hip and the cool have taken the English language, bent it over a chair and given it the rogering from hell, without lube. Eps is one of those words you'd hear in a phrase down in South Central LA, like "Chillin' with da gang speckin' all new eps of da latest g-show", where g-show is a game show, speckin' is watching, and they have the combined culture of a small grain of rice. And sticking with the TV theme, Oprah. Sooooo many things about Oprah grind my gears, thank heavens I've finished uni and have a full-time job so I no longer need to entertain myself in the middle of the day by attempting to watching drivelling (as opposed to rivetting) day-time telly. In particular, the fact that she has to say at the start of every "ep", "Today....All Noo" (obviously All New, but the accent is important). OF COURSE IT'S NEW, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GO AROUND REPLAYING BITS FROM OLD EPISODES AND TRYING TO PASS THEM OFF AS CURRENT, ARE YOU? Of course not, you're not Today Tonight. But still, I await the day when Oprah says "Today, some-of-it-new-and-some-of-it-old-repeated-crap", or "Today, repost". The term ALL NEW is stupid in TV, since it automatically devalues the singular term NEW, so when a TV station says "new episodes" you have to wonder "Hey, they didn't say ALL NEW, therefore despite the fact that they claim it's new, chances are there are going to be some repeats or whatever", and then immediately feel cheated. /incohesive, incoherent rant Man i see what you mean now, Its getting used way too stupidly since pro street came out.

JiP Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 Oh this is starting to piss me off. So many people on my MSN have those god dam MSN virus's. They all keep sending it to me. I just wanna block them but its not their fault they are dumb. But seriously, someone telling me they have pics of me and the link has my email addy name in it. Umm, I don't think so. Like someone set up a url addy just for me. But somehow people fall for it!! Quote

JiP Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 I just don't understand. I get alot of PM's and alot of the time their messages are missing " " from the beginning. Now if it wont let me send a message without one of the "" tags, how did the other person send me the message to begin with!!! Quote
bmxsexmonkey Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 I just don't understand. I get alot of PM's and alot of the time their messages are missing "[QU0TE]" from the beginning. Now if it wont let me send a message without one of the "[QU0TE]" tags, how did the other person send me the message to begin with!!! i get easily annoyed when pm's are [qu0te] [qu0te] [qu0te] [qu0te] [qu0te] and soo on soo i just highlight the "[qu0tes]" and delete them :y: Quote
Hiro Protagonist Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 i get easily annoyed when pm's are[qu0te] [qu0te] [qu0te] [qu0te] [qu0te] and soo on soo i just highlight the "[qu0tes]" and delete them :y: As a habit I always make sure I reply before the quotes, at least as far as PMs are concerned. If the other party follows the same pattern, then you have essentially a conversation record within every message, but the most recent and thus usually most important stuff is at the top, and therefore you don't have to scroll through crap to get to it.

bmxsexmonkey Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 i reckon i will be doing that from now on! Quote
