<div class="IPBDescription">w000t!</div> Hey all,
Just a quick message to everyone here, and on #naturalselection . Shockeh is on holiday! Wheee! From tomorrow, I will be winging my way to sunny Australia, for 3 weeks at my parents place in Brisbane, not doing SWEET F.A, and getting paid holidays for it.
(Cue 50 cent 'Go Shockeh, it's yo birthday, we gonna parteh like it's yo birthday...)
Completely irrelevant, but I just had to tell people, and as I'm mostly on here, if felt appropriate. I'll check this topic while I'm over there, if any of the AUS NS'ers in Brissy will be about, maybe we can shout out in Brissy sometime? <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
w00t me! Happy New Year to all the EU peeps I won't see, GG all.

Lo to all the Aussies & EU & PZ & NTFM peeps! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Review : The Flight (2/10)
My God, it sucked. And it sucked hard. I always fly Singapore Airlines, the extra cash is worth it usually. But for some SHEER bad luck, for the first flight we had NO inflight entertainment, as the system for our row was down (GG everyone else watching movies, and I can't) combined with a small child sat behind me. So, you can imagine how shiny and happy I'm feeling when I get to Singapore.
I make a complaint about the systems being down (and note to them : "Hey, I'm in IT and I'm kind of worried that that sort of thing is unchecked, because if you don't check that before takeoff, what <b>else</b> don't you check?") and board flight 2, Singapore - Brisbane.
Looking good, movies work, sweet, get some nice apology treatment, until Lo & behold, some bint decides seeing as the row in front of us is empty, she may as well move. How do you think she likes the seat? I'll give you a hint, <b>HORIZONTAL.</b> Sorry, it's only the first date woman. So I move to the empty seat next to me and think 'Hey, I'll play some Nintendo' only they've (and for the life of me I can't figure this one out) taken <i>out</i> the SNES based system they had (with about 12 games) and replaced it with a 31 game GAMEBOY COLOUR!??! WTH!?! To add insult to injury, 10 of the games are Pokemon? {Gotta burn them all} so really, factoring in how bad they are, the number of games is effectively like 15. <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo-->
Thank Christ I'm here now, I've just got my Crimbo pressie from the 'rents, MP3 PLAYER! WHEEE! Speaking of which, time to install. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

*cough* I mean, Welcome to Australia <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
[edit]Erm... double-ewe tee eff, mayt? I'm leaving this post as is, but what was censored is a perfectly legitimate word, and in no way a racial slur. Nor has it EVER been. The term means to chuckle in a snide manner, and resembles a racial slur with an s appended to the front. Come on, this is ridiculous. Give the damn thing an overhaul. Don't make me dodge it just to get the message across.[/edit]
And what's wrong with Brisbane, you lousy Mexican? <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
Probably nothing, but it's a time-honoured Australian tradition to slag off other state capital cities <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
