They were banned by the moderator named GT-1. I've always thought G1T was supposed to be like "git", a British slang word for "idiot", but I recall reading a different explanation, no idea where, though.

Yeah, it's an anagram of GT-1, who is a moderator here.

 

Mainland Marauder has his own if I'm correct. Pretty sure it was:

I'm trying to find a movie that I saw about 5 years ago.

 

All I remember was, it was about a family, (it was comedy) where the son got camera's installed in the house, and there was a hot gardener that the daughter and the mother both had the hots for, and the father was part of the mafia or something like that, and near the end their house blows up. That's literally all I remember from it.

 

Does anybody know which movie it is?

Anyone here had tonsillectomy and adenoids removal surgery before? If yes, how long did it take for you to recover completely from the sore throat. I had them back in December and I still have occasional throat irritarions. Some of the foods I eat seem to be triggering my throat irritation. I even went for GERD test but I had no signs of reflux. Could this be food allergy or something?

 

Thanks in advance.

I remember in around August there was a spammer named "Arnold T-100" who was spamming everyone's PM's and several parts of the forum with The Terminator quotes. He was banned in about two hours, and his signature was changed to #TERMINATED. Pretty witty if you ask me.

In IV, there is a house in Dukes which you can enter. Inside the kitchen in the house, is a few papers shatters on the floor but one of the papers on the floor says something on the lines of 'Intergogation Holiday' but I'm not exactly sure. Can someone confirm that, and tell me what it exactly means.

[Greenline]

Can anyone give any advice on how useful this would be in self defense? I posted the story in OFS if anyone is interested.

 

It's like 38.5cm long and about maybe 1-1.5kg.

Guys I need a reply fast. I want to buy Batman Arkham City from GameStop on Black Friday. The problem is that my cousin who has to get the game will be busy. So will I still get the deal if I order the game online? Its for $20 and I don't wanna miss it.

[GTA_stu]

What's OFS?

 

Looks like a pretty weird contraption to me. 38cm is pretty short, is that including the chains or is it just the bat type thing that's 38cm? Well I say bat, looks like, well we all know what it looks like. You've got an already phallic looking object there, then someone's gone and painted it bloody purple just to make sure.

 

It doesn't seem particularly practical either, maybe it's meant more as an ornamental/decorative type of thing. Although it's a pretty bizarre decoration if that's the case.

I haven't laughed so hard on GTAF for a while now, thank you.

It's not purple, the handle is made out of wood. It's not for decoration either, basically "Quran Thumpers" go out and hit themselves with it in memory of Imam Hussein. I just measured again and it seems like it's actually 40-41cm, but yeah, it's still not that long.

 

You hold the phallus and at swing it at yourself, pretty simple. The chains are very complex and heavy, so it gets painful. The problem is, your supposed to swing the phallus at yourself, not at others. The people who are with me are bringing knives, and I couldn't really find a proper knife, so I just went and bought this chain.

What happened to the guy that always put

 

[supreme]

[Obey]

[Pterodactyl]

 

at the end of his posts?

I remmeber the guy who always put -Supreme- at the end of his posts, his name is Hydraulic Warrior, maybe spelt slightly differently and maybe with an underscor inbetween the words, last time i saw him post, he still had coloured text but nothing like -Supreme- on the end.

 

I have never seen him have [Obey] or [Pterodactyl] at the end of his posts though.

The Pterodactyl part was a joke, but he did put [Obey] at the end of his posts, though.

Wut.

Well isn't this a twist in the plot that would leave even M. Knight Shyamalan scratching his head. You've created a physical oxymoron. You want to use it for self-defence, or you're asking how it could be used for self defence, yet at the same time it is intended to actually be used to harm yourself. If you want to learn how to use it to defend yourself I suggest you keep it the f*ck away from you then.

It's the Middle East... nothing makes sense.

 

Well, my logic was that if it can be used to hurt yourself, it can be used to hurt others just as well. So, my question still stands.

While that thing can be used as a weapon, it looks like it has similar problem to nunchucks. Id est, without proper training, you are more likely to hurt yourself than whoever you are aiming at. But seeing how that's the purpose of the implement, that actually makes sense.

 

Get a good staff. You can't really be harassed by law over carrying a staff, and it has much better reach than a knife, so it's actually more practical. Not concealable, though, if that's a factor.

thanks man.

[Mr Rabbit]

why do people use the phrase "I could care less" when they are trying to say that they don't care at all (instead of i couldn't care less)? i don't know why these people say this/

Ok imagine a scale of caring from 0 to 10. If I could not care less then my caring is at 0, whereas if I could care less than my caring could be small, like 0.1, or I could care a lot, 9.7. and still honestly claim to be able to care less. So saying that you could care less only rules out that you do not care at all (0) which is precisely what you are trying to convey. So, why do people use I could care less when they are trying to convey that they do not care at all? it does not make sense

[lil weasel]

Besides that, there is also: "You take it for granite" when they mean granted.

I put it down to lazy thinking. Some just don't consider what they are saying, just repeating what they think they heard.

Have you noticed:

Of instead of have.

Thing in stead of think.

And mispronounced:

Meh'el for metal

Off-TEN or OF-ten for Often (Off'en, silent t)

Or are these dialecs? I don’t think so.

[Shiva.]

I asked a question yesterday after Piperka asked his. Both of our questions were left unanswered in the last page. I know mine won't get an answer as it is too specific but I hope someone has an answer for Piperka's

 

 

I'm trying to find a movie that I saw about 5 years ago.

 

All I remember was, it was about a family, (it was comedy) where the son got camera's installed in the house, and there was a hot gardener that the daughter and the mother both had the hots for, and the father was part of the mafia or something like that, and near the end their house blows up. That's literally all I remember from it.

 

Does anybody know which movie it is?

 

[trip]

 

Or are these dialecs?  I don’t think so.

They are dialects. If I think I get what you are getting at.

 

I'm from a very lazy place when it comes to speaking English. But...we are also aware of our laziness and when we are in the public eye speaking we bust out all the proper enunciation and the like. Or try to at least .

[lil weasel]

I asked a question yesterday [...]

Food iritents maybe.

Most healing is 6 to 8 weeks.

Any surgery may leave nerve endings to be active at times. You'ver heard of people saying when it rains their knee or ankles hurt. Amputees complaining of missing body parts hurting.

 

[Finn 7 five 11]

A friend of mine moved into a new place today, we were cleaning up odd tidbits left lying around and behind a few old books on a shelf we found some pills stuffed into a cigarette packet. There were about 6 packs of 4 pills each, we couldn't figure out what it was, smelled like your average herbal pill from the chemist but we couldn't figure why it would be hidden like that so I took some photos and figured I would ask you guys:

 

What exactly are these? If by any chance anyone knows of illicit drugs that look like this please answer.

 

 

[lil weasel]

Difficult to say. I've seen where extacy might be packaged like that.

Try taking it to a chemist, before you take a chance.

You understand that the pill described on that site is completely different to this pill, right? Just BINGing something and posting the first link won't help.

 

These could be some herbs (intoxicants or not) stuffed in a capsule to bypass the sense of taste. Maybe ask your friend?

BING never helps, it is sh*t

[Finn 7 five 11]

The one on the left might be a form of MDMA, it looks like it's been sitting around for a long time though. I dunno what the other is still. Greenline, the pills aren't his so he wouldn't know, but yeah seems to be mixed with something.

[Dingdongs]

One on the left looks like X, the one on the right looks like trail mix.

 

I would go to the police precinct and ask what they are. If it's illicit just surrender them, if they tell you it's just some herbs then just head home. They appreciate you bringing it in if it's illicit. I fear if you go to the pharmacy and ask they're going to end up calling the cops on you.

[anus]

Forget my previous question. After some research I realised that the article was sensationalist bullsh*t.

 

I do have another science related question though. How do scientists come to know of particles that are smaller than what the most powerful microscopes can detect? I have a feeling math is involved but I'm not sure of the exact process involved.

[sivispacem]

The one on the left, as others have said, looks like MDMA or Methamphetamine. It's got that dirty orange-browniness about it, plus it's in a pill capsule.

 

The other one looks like a home-made herbal high or something. I'd just bin them both.
