Okay people, wake the fuck up! This forum is virtually dead at this time of morning (1:06 AM Central U.S. time), and we need more posters!

I'm looking in your direction, Australia! YOUR DIRECTION!!

Umm, some of us over here have lives you know.

Hey look, I'm doing what I can okay?

I feel like a bit of one-man army in terms of representing Australia at the moment though.

Must be other Aussies out there lurking... post dammit. Show these septics that we've got what it takes! :p

And I don't, so deal with it, damnit!

Wow... first person I've seen that lives in the same place I do.

Septic? Hey man, I'll have you know that I shower and brush my teeth every day.

6.13pm Australian Eastern Daylight Saving Time ^_^


Yeah, I'm half watching the news....

Stupid Jackson trial....

Give us a break. It's almost dinner time, plus the news is on.

It's 6 in the evening here... I'm up already!

Baaah. I really should look into the timezones more often.

Bah, SBS or ABC news are the only true sources. All other paths lead to the dark side (I've just watched the Star Wars Episode 3 trailer, can you tell?)

Oh wow, I eat soon.

Heheh

Yes.

It's 3:19 here in Western Australia.

Good lad. I'm assuming you're a lad? :D And I wub Insight and Dateline!

6:20PM in Tassie

Bah... what would you know? It's clearly 3:21PM, not 3:19PM!

Pity that the 7:30 report isn't around on Friday nights.

6:20 PM here. (I totally expect that by the time I've submitted the post it'll be 6:21. Agreed on the stupid jackson trial... like we wanna know!

Bah, SBS or ABC news are the only true sources. All other paths lead to the dark side (I've just watched the Star Wars Episode 3 trailer, can you tell?)


SBS news is on in 5mins. ABC is on in 35min.


I am convinced that Channel 7 news is complete crap. Ten's is a complete waste of airtime.

I'm assuming you're a lad?

Lol, there aren't many females who quote Star Wars.

Its a Friday night... some of us have lives... like that guy... over there... ~points in a random direction~

:D

And some of us don't... Like this guy...

*points at self*

Is it just me or when a Texan tells Australia to do something, we just do it

Hahahahaha! Awesome call!

Seriously, don't call me that. I'm attempting to completely discard all relation to this state. I've become a very bitter person because of it.

Oh come on, Texas isn't that bad. After all, you've got all those guns and oil wells.

It is a beautiful place, but the people aren't. For the most part, anyway. Austin is quite nice... Very social and liberal.

Still, I'd rather be up in Pittsburgh. That's my kind of town.

Well, obviously since you're a Texan you must thereby embody ALL the stereotypes typically associated with Texans.

So... how's the ranch going? How many 10 gallon hats do you own?

And I don't, so deal with it, damnit!
i don't have a life either.

and a soon to be welcome to PA, you poor bastard. :p

Haha, nice one.

Well, I almost lived on a Ranch... Which sucked. And my dad used to wear a big straw hat when he mowed the lawn...

Oh fuck, I hate remembering those days.

i don't have a life either.

Hah, I'll be looking forward to it.

BTW, I left you a message in the Kerv/Neo thread. ;)

It's okay dude, I'm sure a quick rodeo or two will cheer you up in no time :p

Actually, it's Europe that should be starting to wake up now :)

Thanks man, you're already making my morning better.

Though I really can't see why the dipshits even like Rodeos. They're foul, disgusting, and boring. It's really annoying to spend an entire day inside a building that smells of cow shits and horse piss, and vice versa.

Yeah, I got a bit thrown off. Mixed up timezones... No biggie, though.

Well, I hope.

Hah, I'll be looking forward to it.
looking forward to what? all the clubs closing down or the lack of decent jobs?

Heheh...the Yammo is well awake at the moment!

For once...

Hey... whatever I can do to make someone happy.

So when are you planning to make your escape to PA?

After I graduate High School.

Anything to get outta this place. The accents alone are worth a permanent trip "up North".

I've yet to meet somebody from Pennsylvania who sounds like a fucking moron. I mean, here in Houston, many people at drive-thru windows sound like they'd be at home on a Cotton farm.

Wow its that (1:46) late already?? i still need to finish my research paper and i just got back from a party....although i do agree that rodeos suck. went to see on in texas once and my parents also took me to see a cow get castrated....why i have no idea.

Y'all wan' 'the fries wit' dat???

^ like that?

C'mon, how bad can Texas be? It must be better than South Australia. It's fucking boring here. :headbang:

I love the idea of somebody saying ya'll. My dad is currently in negotiations with some big U.S. company, and one the representatives is from Alabama. He's got the thickest Southern Accent I've ever encountered.

trust me, we've got a lot of them. they make good targets for me and my friends to make fun of. :)

Actually, far from it. It's more like...

"Y'all want sum fries wyith thayat?"

I mean, it's really fucking annoying.

i like never post, but i will coz i saw some felow perth-goers posting, haha i htink this is like my 4th post. So bored, i stayed at home form school sick - i know what u peeps with no life feel like now :P
Currently up - red hot moon - rancid

trust me, we've got a lot of them. they make good targets for me and my friends to make fun of. :)


You can't mean the Yinzers... You can't!!

Sounds funny to me.. but I don't have to live with it....

Take that Alabama accent, make it twice as deep, and multiply it by ten. Then you'll get my dad's god-awful accent. It's atrocious!

Sounds funny to me.. but I don't have to love with it....


I've gotta live with it every day, and I sound like I'm from the North. Which is good for me, since I like the way people sound "up there".

My brother-in-law is from Indiana, and we sound like each other. My voice is a lot deeper, though.

Cool.

We don't have regional accents here. Except for rural people, who talk like Steve Irwin.

Steve Irwin's a loon. A whacky loon.

You're forgetting the Aboriginal people. Particularly the rural ones. Since they spend a lot of time talking in their native language, they have very strong accents and are darn near impossible to understand.

Sort of like people in Arkansas.

actually i'm talking more about the drunken mulletheads, the jock meatheads, and the trendy girls. anyone can slip and say yinz every now and then.

Ah, okay. I've never seen those people before.

Though in the early 90's, people from Ohio and Michigan were still around the Houston area. I remember how much nicer it was to hear those guys talk. On Cinnamon Toast Crunch commercials, they said "toast" correctly!

It was "toast" with them. Now that those people have gone away, it's reverted to the bad-sounding "towste".

Yeah, it's an odd thing to complain about, but the point is that Ohio and Michigan accents were nice to listen to.

I'm awake, infact I've been awake all night (It's 8:14am here GMT)

Sheffield, eh?

That place fell apart like Pittsburgh did when the Steel industries declined.

Yep, although Sheffield actually produces more steel now than in the 1960s. It just employs about 1/10th the people it did back then.

Yeah, which sucks, because that allows the steel companies to inflate their prices ten-fold.

They're screwing people.

Well sort of. But most of the heavy steel industry is gone because of cheaper foreign imports, most of what's produced now is precision stainless steel items. and scalpels!

Yeah, which sucks even more.

But, we all know that you can never have too many scalpels!

I have a friend who used to work in the morgue here (she now works at one in London). and that was actually her motto!!!

That's... Nice. I think.

What about some people from Vladivostok? Same time zone area :p

Nah they were buggered when the steel industry collapsed!

Give us a break, I've been, you know, at school today... familiar with the place? An asylum where they house people against their wills...

Most of Pennsylvania was "buggered" when the Steel Industry collapsed. That place was hit harder than anywhere else.

In Pittsburgh alone, over a hundred thousand jobs were lost. That's a lot of disgruntled steel workers.

Hah. At least you get to go to school and have friends!

Wow... first person I've seen that lives in the same place I do.
hey im australian

Hah. At least you get to go to school and have friends!

Are you in solitary confinement or something?

C'mon, how bad can Texas be? It must be better than South Australia. It's fucking boring here. :headbang:
hehe flooded uni

That's what Home School is, isn't it?

Wake up? *mumble the sun hasn't even set yet mumble* Okay, i'm here.

:p

South Australia can be cool. The best part of Australia is Queensland though i reckon.

Wake up? *mumble the sun hasn't even set yet mumble* Okay, i'm here.

:p


*lobs an orange at Kanabia*

I already said I fudged my timezones! Quit rubbing it in, ya bastard.

Alaska is bigger and better than Australia.

Potaria gees sorry mate was at work how stupid of me next time I'll stay at home just to chat to u ................ tosser !

Ey, don't be a wanker, you... Wank!

Gah!!

The Doors Corporation .......Alaska bigger the Australia eh ...... mmmmm guess my dogs IQ is bigger than yours.

:) Toss !

Australia's land area is 7,682,300 square kilometers.

Alaska's land area is 942,874 square kilometers.


Hmm... I wonder which one's bigger...

If Australia is approximately the same size as the 48 U.S. states between Canada and Mexico, then Alaska must be half the size of the U.S.

Alaska is bigger and better than Australia.
*cough* alaska is not bigger than australia.

*lobs an orange at Kanabia*

I already said I fudged my timezones! Quit rubbing it in, ya bastard.

Actually I was implying that I sleep all day :p

(Which is a lie, i'll admit. But I did just get home not long ago.)

It's not even half the size of Australia, as I posted above.

I got home at about 10:45... Had to go to the Horse Track. My dad said we were just going to bet on one race, but then it turned into two races... Then three races... Then four races...

We should've left after the second race. We would've at least gotten a good return on what we lost on the first.

thats because you are smart Portia unlike the guy who posted that alaska is bigger

Well, naturally.

hey im australian

Yeah but are you in Perth?

Lol, I hope not for his sake.

Lol, I hope not for his sake.
Damn Perth haters!

Best damn place in the country. If you disagree, go live in Adelaide for a couple of weeks :p

I have decided to grace this thread with my presence. I might have done so earlier, but for today being my mother's birthday.

I was beginning to wonder where you were.

I was beginning to wonder where you were.

Well I'm off to cook dinner in a sec (vegemite and lamb pie), but I'll come and bother all you good folk once my belly is full of food and flatulance that'll come out my mouth which I will pass off as conversation (the flatulance, not the food, which should only move down).;) Don't tell me my breath smells you try having verbal diarrhea!:p:D

Best damn place in the country.

Hahaha! Yeah, Perth is cool, I was born and raised here, but come on! We're basically a big city with a small town mentality, the Gold Coast rules though.

Maybe we should secede, that'd show those Eastern States! Where's your wealth now, suckers?!

Indeed.

I do believe Potaria has gone to bed... does anyone have his contact details? I say we go wake him up.

*pffft* Asks us to amuse him and then promptly totters off to bed. No staying power.

Shit man your dad sounds worse than mine!
