:lol:
Been inordinately busy both @ work and @ home lately, and ‘relief sessions’ have usually been of the 23:30 to 00:30 or 01:00 variety…
There’s only 24 hours in a day, but I could *really* do with more atm :wink:
-
WTF? I was replying to Skyclad in the Greatest Moments etc. and then… :? :roll: :oops:
-
Hit new topic rather than post reply?
-
Erm… to my very great shame… probably :oops:
Must post more and get used to the layout.
-
Okaaaayy…….
U see what happens when you stay away from the boards for so long……I hope you’ve learned your lesson.

*hangs head in shame*
Your fault anyhow, you lot made the ‘dig on the Friday, not the Staurday like I was hoping :twisted:

Speaking of which what’s people’s name in BF2. I’m IzaBound…. I play on the TIG servers a bit
-

I have a thing for cheesy 90s gameshows.
Was Bob_Holness for a while too. -
Pete :( :oops:

Now that I think of it its anyware from Guy Selby to C*nt Jones, like to keep me team mates guessing!!
-
:wink:
When we first got introduced to Guy Selby, myself and the other lads playing at the time thought Guy Selby was a really thick bot.He kept driving the vehicles off the cliffs of Wake Island. Little did we know that Pete was having the greatest laugh off in the corner.

I wish I could bring my Shuttle to the LYIT and play online, but I doubt they’d allow it, or have the ports open anyway…
:cry:I am so deprived gaming right now, haven’t even had a LAN in months :(
Shame cos BF2 really feels solid, to play. Even if the specs are ridiculously high, at least I like the gameplay (what I can see from the demo) much better than BF1942 or even BFV (although you just can’t beat Vietnam for the music :P )
As for nicknames, in a LAN I just prefer real names: it makes it easier to know who to hit (physically) after they have dropped a grenade just in front of their whole team… (if only the fool did it just the once, but nooo, ALL the freakin time).

It was hilarious hearing the lads a-cussin’ “that fookin’ bot Selby killed me again, drove me off a bridge in a jeep!”
Had to share it eventually though, kept laffin’ out loud

Well there is no need for that kind of ludeness on the boards to be quite honest. Self-love is one thing……but this….!
-
I did say ‘on’, not ‘in’… :twisted:
You’re just as perverted as phillipe_j :roll:
-
I am not a pervert. I am just French. It’s you guys who are such prudes… :wink:
Nobody called me a pervert anymore once they saw the amount of porn on my drives… ironically. -
Everyone needs a bit of porn… sorry 15 hours of work with no break brain is currently on auto drive and its decided to throw the brakes out the window.

Ah, I learnt a new expression today. I prefer “C’est l’Hopital qui se fout des Templiers”. But I guess to each their own idioms :P

Well, yeah, it’s a good FR equivalent. I just don’t use FR in this Forum, question of politeness for other posters :)
-
yup, same here. Although I’ve always been amazed by the number of Irish people that can actually speak French. It’s quite impressive.
-
The average able to speak french is probably higher than the average able to speak irish :)
-
c’est vrai! :)

Here’s one for yees.
“Moi voiture est tombe en panne et je suis une sandwich jambon”
It means
“My car has broken down and I am a ham sandwich”.Don’t know how many times that little beaut has got me out of a scrape.
Being able to ask for butter always helps too.
-
As I have stated previously on these forums,
“Le singe grimpe sur l’arbre” can get you out of an untold number of scrapes.

Now, I may have refered to my sandwich in that sentence as “une”.
Now, I’m not sure if sanwich is feminine or masculine. If anyone can tell me how I’d appreciate it…
but keep it clean. I’m not separating my bread to get to know my filling.

You know, it’s funny you say that, because whenever somebody tells me their French isn’t too great, I tell them “well, it’s at least as good as my Irish”.
The funniest was this weekend: some drunken idiot started looking for trouble in the jacks with an Irish mate of mine who was speaking French to me. Until my mate started asking him to speak in Irish, if he was so bloody proud… the big guy then quietly went away. LOL.MooTV : All you need to travel abroad is to know how to ask for food, drink, and the toilets, the rest you can always use “sign language”.

Nah, that’s overkill – Beer’s enough (and easy enough to remember even when sh*t-faced) :wink:

Myself and I friend were walking down the street. A few lads started shouting at my friend for wearing an England shirt. My friend, already grinning, calmly started talking Irish to them. Never seen such looks of confusion in my life! Now if only they knew what he said to them.. :wink: -
Ronny : LOL :lol:
lk: aye, pointing at stuff and miming, my favourite language.
Can create some interesting misunderstanding if you are trying to talk about skiing, though :wink: -
Having lived in Florence for 6 months and failing to learn the language, I can confirm that a couple of simple words and numbers are enough to get you by.
Point and say the number of those things you want. A few pleasentaries always help too :) -
Yeah, well, I suppose it’s true enough (having tried it myself), but I jsut don’t know how you can survive the whole experience of having nobody to talk to, you know?
I’d love to go to Japan, one day, but without knowing the language?
I’m not sure I’d be as good as your man in Shogun (or the Arab in The 13th Warrior) :wink: -
yeah, game development is deadly isn’t it…
-
Well i was there working with a group of irish so had people to talk to, and that also caused the not learning…

Now you’re just going completely off topic
-
Indeed. The precise phenomenon I try to explain to newcomers around here. To no avail. We have reached a sort of critical limit, now, where there are so many foreign students, and in fact so many of each countries, that they barely need to interact with Irish people at all.
A sad state of affair IMHO, especially as it only exacerbates the local racist/xenophobic feelings :? (especially frustrating for me who is integrated in the community, to find myself grouped with people who make no efforts whatsoever)
Ah well :roll: … I guess we drifted a bit off topic :oops:lk_ : no need to employ sarcasm, now… :wink:
