Condom, Gers, France Superthread - Take 3

[Alisaura]

thanks ali! i've always known you as the cool and friendly rocks girl well, before i spent superthread time talking to you directly more!

Aw, ta...

I don't even consider if anyone's heard of me or whatever... It's not like I go out of my way to be noticed or anything.

Rocks...

I love how some people have apparently been intimidated/afraid of me. I'm the one who should be afraid of the rest of you lot, judging by the never-ending Pwn Ax Nights!

Oh, FFS... It's the internet, people! Why be intimidated by words on a screen? I'm hardly the most confident person in the world, and I'm rather socially awkward, but I'm safe behind my screen!

And tonight, it is Pwn Ax's Grammar by a non-native English speaker...

Wow, and I thought I was bad just for slacking on the dishes a bit.



Given his current image is something like a US Southern truckie from the eighties, I suspect he actually is.

I'll pay that, he needs to ditch either the beard or the long hair.

 

[phanan]

Drive by.

...wait, who's the non-native English speaker?

 

[Galeongirl]

Oh yuck, the dog just ate a slice of margherita pizza that's been lying on the loungeroom table since Saturday.

Yes, I'm a pretty slovenly housekeep.

good thing the dog ate it and you didn't


leftover pizza wouldn't last that long in my house! pizza!

 

[Alisaura]

The sun doesn't rotate, doofus.

Um, actually, it does. The sun doesn't go around the earth, true, but the sun itself does turn on its own axis.

 

[Galeongirl]

Rocks...

Apparently large post counts and setlist knowledge are intimidating! Shame it probably won't scare away the over-the-top types during the next tour's setlist parties.

You know, a native speaker probably wouldn't have picked up on that, since we're so used to dodgy English from our fellow native speakers.

Oh, that reminds me of this: Fearing end of world, girl commits suicide in Madhya Pradesh-India-The Times of India

Some suicides are sad. Then there's that.

 

[Alisaura]

Drive by.

GG is...

and sorry I didn't say Hi before! Hope you feel better... and a 10am gig sounds sucky.

Hey, that's no problem. Yeah.

I honestly hadn't noticed. *needs to open eyes*

Um, actually, it does. The sun doesn't go around the earth, true, but the sun itself does turn on its own axis.

damn, catching up on the voting thread page 7 now.. .

 

[Axver]

Hey phanan.

... damn you and your scienciness.

Hey Ali, you can make the Farnham Superthread tonight!

I read that!


So guys, the world has ended, how are y'all feelin' 'bout that?


I was actually sad they didn't show pics of the thing on the news... I'm such a nerd for these kinda thigns!

He's all yours... as long as Serena's not here to stake her claim!

Apparently large post counts and setlist knowledge are intimidating! Shame it probably won't scare away the over-the-top types during the next tour's setlist parties.

I guess now that I'm in the five-digit club, I'm not so intimidated...

You know, a native speaker probably wouldn't have picked up on that, since we're so used to dodgy English from our fellow native speakers.

I suspect you're right. I never learned English grammar in a formal, in-depth kind of way. We just got "adjective = describing word, noun = naming word, verb = doing word" ...

 

[liamcool]

They show pictures of dead bodies on the news all the time, no?

 

[Galeongirl]

The worst thing i've encountered these days is, when I correct someone, they call me a grammer nerd.

FUCKING STUPID KIDS.

This may be cold, but my first reaction when I saw the article was "not a loss".



Goddamnit, Large Hadron Collider. My essays are still very much due!

 

[Galeongirl]

yea, well actually I meant of the whole particle collider, I'm not sure what the correct english term for it is

since it's 100M underground they didn't have camera footage.

Thank you for seeing my point. That is exactly what annoys me. They ALWAYS spell it grammer

I didn't realise English was a second language to her until someone mentioned it, either. She probably speaks better than I do

... damn you and your scienciness.

Go Science!

And go listen to a Tripod song on that CD that you're currently using as a coaster... Science Facts Are Useful...

nerdiness! which uni did you go to, ali? i don't know why i'm suddenly considering changing. ths une degree looks so different to my current one, and i can play with bones in it. BONES!!

I went to Monash (cue pwnage from snobby UniMelb Axver)... walked out with a geology degree which I never used.

Bones! I got to play with some fossil bones...

LHC, that was it!

Can we go sightseeing? Like a rollercoaster join in with all the colliding particles?

 

[Axver]

I want pizza now...

I had pizza at uni.

(I didn't intend to. But I only had two slices of toast before I went in today, so by late afternoon, all I could think about was food.)

I suspect you're right. I never learned English grammar in a formal, in-depth kind of way. We just got "adjective = describing word, noun = naming word, verb = doing word" ...

Yep, same here. We had such a dodgy grammatical education. They seemed to just focus on spelling and that was it. And all those pointless lessons when I was about 6-7 on how to do handwriting as opposed to printing.

When I was learning German, I actually got an English grammar textbook as well just to catch up on some stuff I hadn't been taught. So did my friend. It was no coincidence that we ended up being the top two in the class by a considerable margin.

 

[Galeongirl]

You're not the only one.

Probably because I don't speak in either language or Leetspeak...

 

[Alisaura]

Hey Ali, you can make the Farnham Superthread tonight!

I KNEW you were going to say that. I need to sleep!!

So guys, the world has ended, how are y'all feelin' 'bout that?

It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine....

Did you see that link I posted before? Allegedly a webcam at the LHC...

lhc (just cos I still had it copied on my clipboard!)

 

[Axver]

The best English I've ever heard in my life has been from Europeans who aren't native English speakers. For example, the Danish couple I hung out with at Auckland I probably spoke better English than anybody else in the stadium.

And go listen to a Tripod song on that CD that you're currently using as a coaster... Science Facts Are Useful...

Speaking of them, they're performing one of the free Tuesday gigs at uni!

I went to Monash (cue pwnage from snobby UniMelb Axver)

You mean you went to Super TAFE.
