WASP is a hair metal band with flaming crotch pieces ;)
praest76
I vaguely remember them.
MartinRudat tries to remember if it's protestant, or what...
mustaqila goes to nap
All the kids at my primary school loved WASP and AC/DC and Kiss and stuff... i was into the Pet Shop Boys.
Nyght still listens to WASP
MartinRudat
flaming crotch pieces? that sounds uncomfortable...
praest76
mustaqila: sleep tight
MartinRudat
G'night muz.
praest76 can almost smell the burning hair
Nyght
it is protestant Martin, or, was. ;)
night muz
praest76
White Anglo-Saxon Protestants
Nyght
and we're back to burners and hair on fire..
MartinRudat
what do the band WASP's initials stand for, the same?
praest76
We Are Silly Prats
MartinRudat
hee. =)
mustaqila
"We Are Sexual Perverts" apparantly, *goes to sleep fo' real having finished this glss of milk*
praest76
Wigs And Smouldering Pubes
MartinRudat tries to remember the name of the... prominent cod-piece that blackadder wore when being made arch-bishop...
MartinRudat thinks that it's false advertising wearing something like that... =)
You can keep your lunch in it.
MartinRudat
...only if it was a banana, or a saussage. =)
I have a banana, and it's loaded! =)
MartinRudat ponders genres of music... I like some rap, country, techno, disco, dance, rock, metal, opera, new age... I should listen to more jazz to see if there are any jazz songs I really like...
Nyght gets images of the exploding banana in the cartoons
MartinRudat remembers the loaded banana from the Sooty show, or perhaps bananaman. =)

yh, wh nds vwls!
I like how their world has two lots of people, chavs and goths.
and if you're not one, you're obviously the other!
praest76
God help us if they breed together.
Chavgoths!
MartinRudat
any respect for the respondants I lost when I had to get out my vowel inserter to make out wtf they're going on about...
praest76
But that page is a sad idictment of the british education system.
Nyght 's cross with the ebonics
MartinRudat
praest: iv sen lts v ppl 2 lzy 2 typ al th ltrs... I know two people who type like that, both with PHDs...
Nyght
praest76: That, is scary as fuck
I don't think they could even ... um... they can't communicate, the chavs talk in consonant's and the goth's have to talk in vowels.. (but they're not that stupid either.. )
MartinRudat
I think it might be mobile phones that make people talk like a directory listing on a unix box, or something.
nikki_
haha
praest76
Shrinks their brains.
Nyght
I think they do it to make their brains work harder Martin
in case they're afraid they might lose them for lack of sue
use
MartinRudat
a fuckwit to english translator? that would be nice to have. I can't be bothered decyphering that lot... I'd want to read it in an editor so I can translate it to english as I go...
...it's still better than 31337, though.
...this is still phoenetic, at least.
Nyght
100 fuckin quad on coats <---- and this makes them smart?
or.. ??? I just don't get it.
praest76
I know lots of people that do that.
MartinRudat
100 quid on coats?
praest76
Yeah.
and more.
some people seem to prize style very highly and spend a lot of cash.
Nyght
But praest76, is it to make a statement, or because they LIKE the design?
praest76
Me I buy everything in second hand stores and Primark.
MartinRudat 's seen a coat he'd be willing to do 100 quid on... it's got something like 20 pockets in it, and has channels to run cabling through... =)
Nyght
I'm for the latter, sure.. but, for a statement of "style" whatever. :)
praest76
Nyght: Probably the style.
I know some really vain goths.
Spend a fortune on clothes they wear once or twice.
mudcrow
all goths are vain, thats why they are goths
MartinRudat ponders... anyone know roughly how much 100 quid translates into $AU?
Nyght
LOL vanity, it's so over the top!
MartinRudat goes to ask the 'net.
mudcrow
I've spent over £100 on a coat, leather jackets are not cheap
Nyght
mudcrow: no they aren't.
go to korea, they custom make them for that type of money. ;)
praest76
I bought my coat for £15
MartinRudat ponders... I wonder how much it cost to get my current favourite coat (it doesn't have enough, pockets, darnit...)...
MartinRudat ponders... the last time I flamed anyone I'm farly certain I did it in perfectly good english, with attention to punctuation and spelling, and I don't think that I swore once.
MartinRudat can't post a reference, because the thread with the flame was deleted... (I was a little disappointed, I thought that it (the flame) was pretty good on the whole...)
Nyght
LOL Martin, that sucks! A perfectly good flame down the drain.. mine was in email, so I can't show it off either. :(
tempted to write a letter of "who were you trying to impress? Because you're missing the punchline, and every other letter along with it. :)
MartinRudat
not one of those messages was in english... why am I not surprised. I'd have deleted anything of the sort on the grounds of unreadability.
MartinRudat is somewhat surprised that there hasn't been anyone he's noticed coming in here and speaking like that, actually...
Nyght is very grateful
Nyght
That would drive me bonkers
MartinRudat
used to be a constant stream of people dropping in on dalnet who required unscrewing to be able to understand... and all of them spoke good english, one was a regular's relative who was an avaition electronics tech...
MartinRudat sprays some typo-off on his keyboard... hmm... it's getting harder to keep my hands on the keyboard... I wonder if this is a hind about the source of typos... =)
Nyght
I doubt education has much to do with it.. sorta like the blond acting dumb because they want to be accepted
MartinRudat
I wonder if it's the fact that this is a) on an OSS network, rather than a general chat network, and b) people are already picky about their language, otherwise they wouldn't be so interested in MB...
o/` 'cause I'm a blonde, yeah yeah! o/`
MartinRudat bahs, I've got "The Homecoming Queen Has A Gun", but not "Because I'm a Blond"... I wonder where it went?

was about 4-5 years ago, and it had comp, screen mouse keyboard speakers os and lost of software witrh
the keyboard and mouse I replaced since then though
mouse was dodgy, but the keyboardwasn't
just swiched to one that was cordless
only thing I wished was that it had more than 2 usb ports
MartinRudat hasn't bought a complete desktop computer in years. I'd have to think back to the last one.
using one on my network card and the other needsto share the scanner, the phone and the camera
juhae has quit
MartinRudat has, however, bought about two or three computers' worth of parts, though. =)
intitally had 40 gigs
but got updated to 80 since the hardriwe melted :)
only 125 ram though :(
mudcrow
!money 9995 nok gbp
BrainzBot
9995 nok = 872.387588 gbp
mudcrow paid a lot lot more for this comp :(
MartinRudat 's other computer has two 60G and two 80G drives, one spare, and three in raid1 (for swap and boot), and raid5 for home directories...
MartinRudat thinks his laptop cost around about that much... I can't really remember, it was a while ago... I could have got another last year for about $AU500 refurbished, I think.
catmo
eeek cheap
MartinRudat
catmo: it's a _few_ years old now... still in near-mint condition... I cracked the corner of the case, and it's got a larger hard-drive, it has nearly the same battery-life that it had when I first got it. =)
mudcrow
ARGH! I just created a new artist then realised all the tracks in the artist I was going to split are all by the same band :(
catmo
pffftt
MartinRudat ponders baseball-caps... I've got four on my desk, three of which saw active use... then again, the one on top has 'Smile! people will wonder what you're up to' written on it... and another has my name written across it.
