  1. I'd say they are unpleasant, but they are a necessity sometimes.
  2. Happy birthday, no getting turned on.
  3. My Chinese is pretty poor, but it is getting better slowly with time. Especially now I am trying to have regular lessons with a qualified teacher. Thanks for the good wishes, Daft. It's so frustrating not being in control.
  4. At the risk of incurring the wrath of the whole world, I agree with you on that one. LTTP I could just play every weekend for so many hours, there were so many things to see and do, and yet by today's standards, it's such a small game world. Anyhow, the article was great, guys!
  5. I am trying to build a future here, it's such a great place to live and work. The worst part is I have had to go to my previous employer and ask them for some part time work so that someone else can take on the responsibility of my work Visa. I mortgaged my future on this project and they have not kept me in the loop. I guess you could say I don't feel secure in my job, despite the assurances of my employer.
  6. Very bad day. Found out the investors in my school are getting antsy, and it can't open until Chinese money is found to invest in it as well. What's amusing is that the Chairmen and all the investors are all Taiwanese, with Taiwan considered legally part of China... yet the government are classing them as foreigners from the point of view of investment. Anyway, so I have to take a pay cut (not a problem) until money is found. However, no-one told me about the situation until today, I'm supposed to be one of the managers for goodness sakes! Grah!
  7. Cube, I respect your opinion, but it's clearly the opinion of an idiot. Alien was THE defining moment in horror for virtually every film that followed on from it.
  8. According to some assessment I did, I'm heading to the penultimate level of Hell with the rest of the perverts. Talking of the Phelp's, did you hear that the WBC is planning to picket Heath Ledger's Funeral? And yes, bumsex is still sex. Just like armpit sex is still gross.
  9. Agreed. How is racing an absolutely perfect race any fun when you are beaten by a guy using a physics exploit? Then there was the time I beat a snaker and he cut the connection.
  10. English is an evolving language, therefore if "Chips" become "Fries" well, that's life. A McDonalds qualification... hmm. I guess the important thing is that the workforce get more transferrable skills so that they have more future options.
  11. *Subject Change* I learned an interesting fact about the Chinese language the other day, in standard language, the Chinese for "homosexual" is actually "Sleeve Cutter." This comes from one of the Emperors who had a lot of male concubines. One day the emperor and his favourite fell asleep, it just so happened it was a council day and the emperor was expected. He woke up and realised he had overslept, as he looked down he saw his favourite was still sleeping on the emperor's long sleeve of his robe. Not wanting to disturb him, the emperor called for a pair of scissors and cut his long sleeve rather than wake his lover. Am I the only one who finds that sweet? It sure beats "Shirt Lifter" anyway.
  12. I'm torn, honey. The boots will probably give you the support you need, but the platforms have got the "GRRRRRROOOOOOOWWWWWWL" factor going for them.
  13. Why not ask the participating tribes in Africa for an apology too? They were culpable in their raids on other tribes to kidnap people for sale into bondage. Unfortunately, slavery was legal way back when. I cannot and will not apologise for the mistakes of those before me, but I will do my damndest to make sure those mistakes are not allowed to happen again.
  14. Converse or Bata. Cons are stupidly cheap here and the only shoes I can find that fit perfectly.
  15. Link, because I fight left-handed and most of what I say is just grunts and groans anyway.
  16. I'm 5' 7" but I make up for it by being greater in standing than my stature suggests. Plus I am stupidly large across the shoulder area, I swear I look like a rectangle. My ex girlfriend was 6' 1" and it never bothered her or me. In fact it actually turned me on a little. Last girlfriend was about 5' 10" too. But chances of finding a woman taller than me in China are remote, plus the ones I have met are neither interesting to talk to or attractive to look at.
  17. I was actually about to ask the same about Fred Phelps Sr from the Westboro Baptist Church, after reading that his hate group want to picket Heath Ledger's funeral for making Brokeback Mountain.
  18. Pete Doherty. I've heard your music and I didn't like it. Now piss off.
  19. I insist you play more of It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back. Damn fine album.
  20. Dingdingding! All correct! Sorry Moogle, it is The Story of Wizball II.... ..... OR "The Islands of Wiz"
  21. Sounds like... leprosy... either that or you're turning into one of those guys from I Am Legend.
