school (why does school start so early, it should start about an hour later)
training for getting up early for work when your older, i guess...
work if your older
so that your tight ass boss won't blow all of his steam on you just to release all of his lousy frustrations in life...
I was gonna ask her out
wondering for the rest of your life, "what might have happened IF..."
*rant*...our label conscious, labelling society...

"I can't believe my starting five"...
Tales did you think that stating that would make the thread explode with replies?
I'm playing a Wizards franchis in Live 2003... In my first season I made the playoffs and lost in the second round to the KNICKS! Then in my next season I made a couple of moves and my roster looked like this:
C - Brendan Haywood
PF - Elton Brand (the trade that should have happened for Kwame at the draft, only I traded Larry Hughes, and a few others to get him)
SF - Ron Artest - I picked him up as a free agent.
SG - Erry Craphouse
PG - Tyronne Lue
---------------
Juan Dixon
Kwame Brown
Christian Laettner
Etan Thomas
Glen Rice - picked up as free agent
Darius Miles - the cavs offered him for my rookie so I took him.
Michael Jordan - Yeah that's right, I brought him back for one more season! Thank you toolkit
He missed the first 8 games and is easing back into it with minutes. He's putting up about 10ppg atm, playing just over 10 mins a game.
At the end of the season I'll probably switch to another team since I left that option open, and I'd like to rebuild a really crappy team...
.....so anyway, I'm thinking of starting Brendan Haywood at the PG spot. Any thoughts?

I just realized I’m the biggest idiot ever, ya know? Everything stupid I do is because of drinking, but whatever, it happens. ‘Course, it happened a lot last night, I did so much stupid shit, ya wouldn’t believe. Todd and Mack picked us up at like two on Saturday. We were gonna get an early start on drinking, ya know, gotta be buzzed before the concert. So me and Aerie and Phil, we got a two twenty-fours of Mooseheads (Aerie bought for the first time, he finally used the fake I got him), and we went to this awesome spot, probably the best lake spot in Oakeville. It was beautiful; we were right over the lake, our feet hanging over this ledge above the water.
Anyway, so we’re drinking our Mooseheads, and I had about six or so, and it was pretty hot out, since it’s like July, ya know? So I wanted to go for a swim and stripped naked and put my clothes in a nice dry spot, jumped off the ledge into the water. The water was so cold, Aerie and Todd nearly fell off the ledge, they were laughing so hard! So I get out, just all cold, shriveled and what not, and I drink the rest of the beers with my boys.
Dunbar, Todd’s girlfriend, and her friend Dutch picked us up, and we wanted more beer, so we went to a nearby liquor store and I bought like three tall Heineken’s, and Dutch bought a bottle of vodka for her and Todd (Dunbar was driving). The other guys got another twenty-four of Mooseheads, and we just went to the bathroom of the place and started slamming beers, man, we were drunk as fuck! It was like five in the afternoon, and we’re standing around, plastered out of our minds, in this bathroom of a liquor store! The people didn’t even say a thing when we came out!
Anyway, Dunbar had left to pick up our tickets and backstage passes, so we were hanging out outside the liquor store, drinking the rest of the Mooseheads and taking pulls off the vodka, just stumbling around laughing, all that shit. God, I was so drunk, man, it’s crazy. Finally, Dunbar showed up and took us to the Air Canada Centre. Somehow me and Aerie got separated from the rest of the guys, and we ran into those 102.1 “The Edge” fucks, and we got into this huge argument about how we think jazz is better than alternative. I was ready to punch that “The Voice” guy, but they settled it by giving us like a million packs of corn nuts, so we left to find our seats.
We finally caught up with the rest of the guys, and we found our seats. They were so awesome, you wouldn’t even believe it. We were like, five rows from the stage. I could see the beads of sweat sliding down Billy Corgan’s face, it was awesome. I had like twelve beers in me, so I was feeling awesome, and we were so close to the band! This is where everything started to get pretty fucked up, it was crazy.
So the chick was topless, right? Just shaking her titties right by me! Then I bumped into this old chick, spilled her beer all over her, so I had to go buy her another one. And that’s a bitch in itself, ‘cause a small is like $5.75 and a large is $11.50. So I got her a beer, and all those asshole guys who were sitting by her kept telling me that it’s ‘the least I could do,’ making sure I bought her a damned beer. I was only gonna buy her one, ya know? So we all went and bought more beer, and it’s such a rip-off. At least the larges were like three beers in one, so it wasn’t as bad. I wasted so much money! What a rip-off!
The show was fucking awesome!! They played all the good songs, like “Zero,” “Bullet with Butterfly Wings,” “Adore,” it was awesome! ‘Cept, there were these asshole bouncers, they sucked. We left our seats, y’know, and were trying to go right up to the stage, and these bouncers wouldn’t let us past the last step! So everyone was getting all rowdy and shit, and the bouncers kept telling us to go back to our seats, but we were flipping ‘em off and shit, telling them to fuck off, telling them we fucked their moms, that we were gonna kick their asses, it was so crazy!
Anyway, we saw Ennis walking by, he snuck in the media door, that’s fuckin’ crazy and genius and stuff, so we were wasted and shit and we jumped on his back. So then the bouncers started pulling us off him, telling us to go back to their seats, and we’re getting in their faces more and then some crazy shit happened! Billy Corgan stopped the band, took his guitar off and set it down, and then he comes up and starts talking to us! He’s like, ‘what’s the problem,’ and we’re like ‘these assholes won’t let us past, and we have backstage passes,’ so he tells us something like ‘you can stay there, but don’t fuck with the bouncers cause they’ll kick your ass,’ it was awesome!
So we were still telling the bouncers to fuck off and everything and the whole crowd was cheering us on, throwing shit at the fuckers, it was so cool. Man, we were so wasted. So the show finally gets over, and we’re going to the after show and we get in this elevator and pack the shit outta it. There was twenty-two people in it, and that was the limit. So we’re riding in the elevator, and the fucker gets stuck! I couldn’t believe it! Stephen Dorff, the actor, was there with his girlfriend (ya know, he was in Blade and Deuces Wild), and he’s a total asshole! He kept going into the intercom like every two seconds he’s like 'This is Stephen Dorff. My name is Stephen Dorff and me and a bunch of other people are trapped in the elevator and its fucking hot, you have to open the fucking door! Whatever the fuck you’re doing its not working, you have to open the door!' and he kept telling the elevator guys how to do their job, and they were like, ‘Alright, Mr. Dorff, we’re trying to get you out. We know how to do our job, and we’ll open the door as soon as we can. We are not leaving you there on purpose.’
After those repair guys said that, we were ripping on that bastard, we told him that they were leaving us there on purpose, ya know, ‘cause he’s an asshole. Then his girlfriend gets all bitchy to us, telling Aerie to shut up, just ‘cause we’re chilling, hanging out, ya know? Just cracking jokes on Mr. Dorff (what the fuck kinda name is that anyway?), it was crazy. We were so wasted, we didn’t give a fuck how long we were in the ‘vator, we were chillin,’ ya know?
So the air in the ‘vator’s getting thing, right? Some of the people are starting to hyperventilate and crying and shit, it was crazy. So me and Aerie and these two hot girls were ripping on Dorff, it was so fun, and then like forty-five minutes later the fire department came and let us out.
We finally got to the after show and it was so sweet! There were like three bars in the place, every kinda liquor you could imagine, every kind of beer possible. And it was all free! So me and Aerie, we’re double fisting beers, smoking joints – everyone was lighting ‘em up everywhere, there were cops there, and they didn’t care! Billy Corgan came up to me, and he’s like, ‘weren’t you the guy from the show?’ I said, ‘yeah, I was,’ and the dude handed me this huge Cuban cigar! It was awesome!
So I’m smoking this huge Cuban with Billy Corgan and drinking free Heineken, but then all the groupie bitches were getting on him, so I moved outta the way – gotta let the man play – and Billy pushes two of the girls towards me! It was so awesome, I mean…

Well, mine's a modified monologue for a class...this is the ACTUAL events as told by a Canadian named Karim...him and his friends held up a Coldplay concert, TheBob, remember that? It made the Toronto newspaper... 
...and Tales? Yeah, it's fiction...hehe...
The absolutely Insane Night
i have to tell you about the absolutely insane night ive had that was so amazing. i just got back now at 2 in the afternoon. of course i also realized im the biggest idiot ever when i drink, drinking is responsible for all the stupid things i do, and i did so many yesterday in. allright so here's what happened, hodd came to mac and picked me up on saturday around 2 and we went and met aarie and phil and we went to drink before the concert.
so we got a 24 of moosehead and took it to this amazing spot at the lake that was the hugest mission ever to get to, especially since i had to do it while carrying a 24. but we went to this amazing spot, probably the best lake spot in oakville, you sit on these really high rocks behind these bushes and hang right above the lake but really high, and we each drank our 6 beers there and it was already so good but even better when we knew we we're going to the concert later. anyways then hodds girlfriend dunbar came and picked us up and drove us to the train station. we were all pretty good and buzzed by then and but by the time we got to union we all wanted more beer, so me and hodd and dutch all went to the lcbo and used out ids and dutch bought beer for the first time.
so we got 4 tall cans of heineken and then my life hit an all new low but i dont even care becaues we were so drunk and loud but we went to the bathroom at union and all chugged our cans while everyone was coming in and could actually see the four of us standing there drinking and yelling. so then we got outta there and walked to the air canada centre to pick up our tickets which were being held under guests of the band tickets but me and hodd got seperated from phil and aarie and we ended up talking to these 102.1 the edge guys and getting into huge arguments about jazz being better than alternative but then they settled it by giving us like a million packs of corn nuts. so we finally found dutch and got our tickets and back stage passes then we went to our seats which were so amazing! they were really close to the band and this is about the time that the stupid things started happening. id had like 8 beers by now so i was pretty good and while we were running down all excited and jumping up and down i hit this ladies beer and soaked her with it so badly. so i had to go and buy her a new one which i did but still all these old guys who she was with kept coming up to me and being like 'did you replace that beer for her, that's the least you could do' even though i already had. so then we all went and bought beers for ourselves, which were so expensive! actually the worst deal ever i blew so much money. the smalls were 575 and the large glasses were 1150....
and throughout the show i had 2 smalls and a large. the larges are huge thuogh there like 3 beers. so then the show was fucking amazing they played so many good songs and they were so awesome, but here's where everything actually starts happening. we left our seats and went all the way down to the front of the stage but these asshole bouncers wouldnt let us get further than the last stair, so everyone was packed in there and getting rowdy and the bouncers tried to make us go back to our seats but we wouldnt. anyways then while we were up there we saw ennis walk by and we were all so wasted and jumped on him and went crazy (also, he got in free by sneaking in the media door which is amazing) and then the security guards grabbed me and phil and started throwing us out and really roughing us up and we started fighting them and refusing to go it was huge every security guard was trying to push us out but we just kept shoving them all and actually we were going to get the shit kicked out of us. anyways so we were right infront of the stage while this is happening and the lead singer stops singing, takes his guitar off and comes over to the edge of the stage and asks us whats going on, and we told him these asshole security gaurds were trying to throw us out and we showed him our tickets and passes and he told us we could stay and we werent getting thrown out but we couldnt fuck with the bouncers cause they would beat us up.
so we came back up after everyone saw us about to get kicked out and we were yelling fuck you at the bouncers and people were cheering for us it was so insane. then i spilled another beer on aarie and had to give him one which sucked. so then the rest of the show was amazing and when they finished we went to go backstage with all the backstage people, and we got in this elevator to go to the aftershow place. and there's 22 people in the elevator, which is the max.....
and as soon as it starts going it stops and doesnt work. so were all stuck in this elevator and its a million degrees and one of the guys in it is this actor stephen dorf, who was in the movie deuces wild and his girlfriend, and he is the biggest asshole ever. he calls security every 2 seconds and hes like 'this is stephen dorf. my name is stephen dorf and me and a bunch of other people are trapped in the elevator and its fucking hot, you have to open the fucking door! hwatever the fuck your doing its not working you have to open the door!' and he kept telling the elevator guys how to do their job and they were like, allright mr dorf were trying to get you out we know how to do our job we will open the door as soon as we can we are not leaving you there on purpose you're not helping, and he was the biggest jerk. and then his girlfriend was the biggest bitch ever she kept telling aarie to shut his mouth cause me and him were juts chiling and joking around while everyone was making such a big deal. but then the air started getting thin and a few people started crying and hyperventilating but they were still such assholes. but me and dutch and these two girls were having the best time just making fun of stephen dorf. but finally the fire department came and let us out after like 45 minutes and we ran around and eventually got to the aftershow, and it was insane!
i dont know how we ever got there. it was all these famous people, record executives, much music people, people in other bands (the lead singer from a band called joy drop was there), and a million girls throwing themselves at the band. and here's the best part: an open bar with every type of drink you can imagine all for free and unlimitied!!! its in this giant room with 3 huge bars and huge glass windows overlooking the air canada centre stage and stuff. then we met the band and they remembered us as the guys who they saved from being thrown out but we could barely talk to them for long there was so many girls around and they just treated everyone as another fan, which i dont blame them for they probably meet so many people like us.
but we were throwing back so many beers, by the end of the night i had 18. i was ordering heinekens two at a time all for free, and so many people were just smoking joints in the place it was crazy people just sitting at tables smoking joints and we talked to everyone, all these famous people. then by the time we decided to head out it was like 2 in the morning but we went behind this bar that wasnt in service and just filled up our cups from the tap it was crazy we were so drunk. then i went behind the bar grabbed two beers from the fridge and we left. phil had beers too but we were so fucking drunk it was unbelievable, phil dropped his on the stairs and smashed it we could barely walk by this time. wed been drinking since 4 in the afternoon.
so we decided to get some food and after walking a million years we went to a burger king. i went in and i was holding two beers in my hands and i tried to be all slick and not let the guy see them by putting them on the ground but being a drunken idiot i promptly kicked one over. and the guy was like, thats a beer? and i said it wasnt open and he asked if i was planning on drinking it with my meal and i said no so he said it was ok. so we all ordered food and were sitting in a packed burger king and were so fucked and making so much noise and ive got 2 beers on my table next to my food and aarie hodd and phil are so drunk they can barely eat, hodd ate his food but aarie just scattered fries and napkins all over the place and then lay his head in his hands. and phil made the hugest most disgusting mess ever. he had two bites of his burger and then somehow it ended up completely spread out with the meat and the buns and everything all face down on the bare table and he had fries all over the floor like surrounding all of us and napkins and one of our trays was on the floor and ketchup was spilled everywhere it took us 30 seconds to make the biggest mess in the entire world.................
then phil just goes, man we should go home soon and puts his head on the table and he spills his large root beer directly onto my lap and then pretty much passes out. so this is the biggest mess in the entire world, and they all get up and leave and said to the manager, while holding my beers 'man i really dont want to clean all this shit up, do i have to?' and he said if i didnt want to it was okay so i said bye to him and left the biggest mess ever on their table. then we went outside and i got a call from mary helen and she had been at the concert too and she had a room at ryerson cause she goes there and she and her friend wanted to meet up and said i could come to drink at her residence. so i told them id meet them at yonge and dundas and then by this time aarie is puking in the middle of the street and phil is practically passed out and i figure this is a good time to drop one of my beers and smash it in the middle of the road. by this time its like 3, and aarie hodd and phil took a cab home for 60 bucks but (here's a demonstration of alcohol destroying all logical thought) i decide to stay and drink at ryerson.
so i met up with mary helen and her friend and they were so wasted but her friend was feeling sick so we had to take her back to the room, so we took her back to the room and she threw up in the bathroom and finally she was okay and went to bed so then me and mary helen, using drunken logic, decided to go out to some bars downtown. the idea being that i would bribe the bouncer to let her in and we would drink. now all of these plans have been made ignoring the fact that i only have 9 bucks. so we get ready and take a few shots and were just abuot to go when we realize that its 330 in the morning and all the bars are closed so me and her just went to bed and slept together on this tiny air matress while her friend was in the bed but i couldnt even fool around with her cause her friend was there. and i didnt even tell my parents anything but came home today at like 2 inthe afternoon
...and Tales? Yeah, it's fiction...hehe...

so we came back up after everyone saw us about to get kicked out and we were yelling fuck you at the bouncers and people were cheering for us it was so insane. then i spilled another beer on aarie and had to give him one which sucked. so then the rest of the show was amazing and when they finished we went to go backstage with all the backstage people, and we got in this elevator to go to the aftershow place. and there's 22 people in the elevator, which is the max.....
and as soon as it starts going it stops and doesnt work. so were all stuck in this elevator and its a million degrees and one of the guys in it is this actor stephen dorf, who was in the movie deuces wild and his girlfriend, and he is the biggest asshole ever. he calls security every 2 seconds and hes like 'this is stephen dorf. my name is stephen dorf and me and a bunch of other people are trapped in the elevator and its fucking hot, you have to open the fucking door! hwatever the fuck your doing its not working you have to open the door!' and he kept telling the elevator guys how to do their job and they were like, allright mr dorf were trying to get you out we know how to do our job we will open the door as soon as we can we are not leaving you there on purpose you're not helping, and he was the biggest jerk. and then his girlfriend was the biggest bitch ever she kept telling aarie to shut his mouth cause me and him were juts chiling and joking around while everyone was making such a big deal. but then the air started getting thin and a few people started crying and hyperventilating but they were still such assholes. but me and dutch and these two girls were having the best time just making fun of stephen dorf. but finally the fire department came and let us out after like 45 minutes and we ran around and eventually got to the aftershow, and it was insane!
i dont know how we ever got there. it was all these famous people, record executives, much music people, people in other bands (the lead singer from a band called joy drop was there), and a million girls throwing themselves at the band. and here's the best part: an open bar with every type of drink you can imagine all for free and unlimitied!!! its in this giant room with 3 huge bars and huge glass windows overlooking the air canada centre stage and stuff. then we met the band and they remembered us as the guys who they saved from being thrown out but we could barely talk to them for long there was so many girls around and they just treated everyone as another fan, which i dont blame them for they probably meet so many people like us.
but we were throwing back so many beers, by the end of the night i had 18. i was ordering heinekens two at a time all for free, and so many people were just smoking joints in the place it was crazy people just sitting at tables smoking joints and we talked to everyone, all these famous people. then by the time we decided to head out it was like 2 in the morning but we went behind this bar that wasnt in service and just filled up our cups from the tap it was crazy we were so drunk. then i went behind the bar grabbed two beers from the fridge and we left. phil had beers too but we were so fucking drunk it was unbelievable, phil dropped his on the stairs and smashed it we could barely walk by this time. wed been drinking since 4 in the afternoon.
so we decided to get some food and after walking a million years we went to a burger king. i went in and i was holding two beers in my hands and i tried to be all slick and not let the guy see them by putting them on the ground but being a drunken idiot i promptly kicked one over. and the guy was like, thats a beer? and i said it wasnt open and he asked if i was planning on drinking it with my meal and i said no so he said it was ok. so we all ordered food and were sitting in a packed burger king and were so fucked and making so much noise and ive got 2 beers on my table next to my food and aarie hodd and phil are so drunk they can barely eat, hodd ate his food but aarie just scattered fries and napkins all over the place and then lay his head in his hands. and phil made the hugest most disgusting mess ever. he had two bites of his burger and then somehow it ended up completely spread out with the meat and the buns and everything all face down on the bare table and he had fries all over the floor like surrounding all of us and napkins and one of our trays was on the floor and ketchup was spilled everywhere it took us 30 seconds to make the biggest mess in the entire world.................
then phil just goes, man we should go home soon and puts his head on the table and he spills his large root beer directly onto my lap and then pretty much passes out. so this is the biggest mess in the entire world, and they all get up and leave and said to the manager, while holding my beers 'man i really dont want to clean all this shit up, do i have to?' and he said if i didnt want to it was okay so i said bye to him and left the biggest mess ever on their table. then we went outside and i got a call from mary helen and she had been at the concert too and she had a room at ryerson cause she goes there and she and her friend wanted to meet up and said i could come to drink at her residence. so i told them id meet them at yonge and dundas and then by this time aarie is puking in the middle of the street and phil is practically passed out and i figure this is a good time to drop one of my beers and smash it in the middle of the road. by this time its like 3, and aarie hodd and phil took a cab home for 60 bucks but (here's a demonstration of alcohol destroying all logical thought) i decide to stay and drink at ryerson.
so i met up with mary helen and her friend and they were so wasted but her friend was feeling sick so we had to take her back to the room, so we took her back to the room and she threw up in the bathroom and finally she was okay and went to bed so then me and mary helen, using drunken logic, decided to go out to some bars downtown. the idea being that i would bribe the bouncer to let her in and we would drink. now all of these plans have been made ignoring the fact that i only have 9 bucks. so we get ready and take a few shots and were just abuot to go when we realize that its 330 in the morning and all the bars are closed so me and her just went to bed and slept together on this tiny air matress while her friend was in the bed but i couldnt even fool around with her cause her friend was there. and i didnt even tell my parents anything but came home today at like 2 inthe afternoon

I kinda miss the rock and roll rock and roll thread, although its apropos that it was banned for explicit content. Not that anyone would care, but I think that, in the hustle and bustle of this increasingly complicated world, stereotyping is usually okay and necessary. I don’t believe in any concept of right and wrong, but it does make me sad when an individual is subjected to stereotyping by other(s). I agree with dan gadzuric that people stereotype themselves, some more obviously than others, but whats the big deal? Nothing is new anymore.
For my final bit of closure on the late r&r thread, I want to take back what I said about queens of the stone age. Upon further review, songs for the deaf is the best album to come on in more than a year (IMO) and I would no longer lump them together with the not quite disappointing audioslave. QOTSA rock the fuck out and in turns remind me of STP, led zep, pixies, king crimson, smashing pumpkins and even madonna (in their sometimes minimalist rhythm section).
Okay that’s it, see you next non sequitur.

I got this album last june, I think 3 months before the official release. I think I sent this album to some guys on the forum, like Tony and I don't remember who more.
Man, this album rocked in my mind from the start. From that day on, I thought that would be the album of the year for me; even when Audioslave's came out, it didn't top QOTSA IMHO.
"Mosquito Song" is such an exquisite song it always give me chills whenever I listen to it. And the other songs are great too, with the exception of one or two, like "Six Shooters".
I saw QOTSA at the beginning of 2001 when they played on the Rock In Rio festival, here in Brazil, and I really enjoyed their brief show (they were playing on the same day as Sepultura and Iron Maiden).

yeah, thats me. i was going for jeff bridges in the big lebowski, but fuck it if i look like tom green...could be worse.
i had heard songs for the deaf once, but i only bought it a week ago, and i must have been on crack for my first listen. i can't even pick a favorite song yet. mosquito song is up there for sure, but i also like hangin tree, song for the deaf....shit, a lot of them. there's one song thats like a minute and a half long so if i had to pick a least favorite it would be that just because of its brevity. anyway, if it hadn't been for the r&r thread, i might never have given QOTSA a second chance. or vice versa.

I've just discovered that Channel Ten will be airing an hour of Big Brother 3 every day. That means various timeslots that have been allocated to the Simpsons for the last few months are now taken up by the Live edition of Big Brother. Including the slot that was showing the new episodes, so again this week's episodes are all repeats. 
Why do we need an hour of Big Brother? Half an hour of daily highlights followed by live coverage? I've never been a fan of reality shows as it is, but Big Brother is my least favourite (or my favourite one to hate, depending on which way you look at it). The first one back in 2001 was alright, but last year's was subpar (same thing, different people, too many gimmicky things added). This year, they've tried to be original, but it's probably just going to be the same thing, different people, even more gimmicky things added.
Seeing as though there's a weekly recap on the weekly "eviction" episode, you only need to watch an hour on the weekend to be up to date with what's happened. This extra live show just takes away a timeslot for better, more entertaining television.
That said, I'll probably end up watching bits and pieces of the daily shows anyway, just so I've got something to talk about.

I agree Andrew, it can only get more gimicky. But hey I'm sure they'll find really really slutty girls, and sleazy guys to make it more entertaining. The uncut version was always entertaining, and made the daily episodes look boring

Yeah guys, the Big Brother tv show, here in Brazil, quickly got boring. We're in the 3rd edition too, it has just finished, and the "characters" are all the same as of previous versions...

I watched bits and pieces of the first episode last night. This year's wacky gimmick - there's two houses, only six of the twelve people have gone into the house thus far, 5 of them are in one house, and there's one guy in the other house. Tonight, there's an hour and a half where that "problem" is obviously going to be resolved. Then we'll go to the 1 hour daily updates/live edition of the show.
I can't wait.

Yeah i watched it last night too (only so that they're is something to talk about at school the next day.) I don't beleive in this shit...but for some reason i watch it. 
lol:
Nick's opinion on housemates: Jaimee seems pretty legendary, Carlo kinda shits me, Belinda is real hot 'cept for that monster jaw she's got.
Irena seems like the fat but fun type...they're just trying to create another Sarah-maree. who else is there?...um...oh yeah that claire girl, she's probably dyke...she's seems pretty cool...
Um...what's the topic again?
Oh right, random rants, that's alright then, so i haven't gone off topic after all.

Big Brother
That show originated from the Netherlands, when it was still unique it was pretty funny, I never got "addicted" unlike about 5 million of my fellow inhabitants, but it was quite unique.
Now, on the other hand, after like three seasons and them trying to think of new stuff all the time, it's not fun anymore. Only when there was a guy who insisted on playing Metal songs at least 15 minutes a day hehe. Some people even had to cry because there was the sound of a stopping heart mahcine (you know beep beep beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep) in one of the songs.

I know what you mean. I know my friends will want to talk about it when we catch up at the end of the week, so I figure I might as well acknowledge its existence.
they're just trying to create another Sarah-maree.
That's all we need.
I believe the real Sarah-Maree is on Totally Wild now.oh yeah that claire girl, she's probably dyke
I thought it was confirmed she was? Come on, don't make me watch more than I have to, just to find out for sure.
That show originated from the Netherlands
Reminds me of that quote from a recent episode of the Simpsons (Helter Shelter, where the family are forced to live on a reality show set in 1895):
"I'm the creator of the 1895 Challenge...and when I say creator, I mean I saw it on Dutch television, and tweaked it."
