Congratulations..

You have now met me. I hope you are all having a fine day/night and that you're all making lots of money?

Anyway I bumbled my way here through pure boredem and have this thirst for talking to people I can't see at the moment. I'm struggling to have any decent conversation with any human I am in contact with lately and, crazy as it may seem, thought talking to any number of lunatics, scholars, jail birds or a mix of them all might be interesting. Give me your best shot, I'm quite content talking about anything and hopefully i get something out of you people and hopefully you get something out of me.

First, a little on myself....

I'm from Australia.
I work too hard.
I need a beer.

Enjoy your day and hopefully meet again!!

I am trying to figure out which category I fit into.

Anyway, welcome!

I think s/he has us pretty much pegged with that ...

G'day F&M. Owyagoin?

Feel up for a quiz?

1. Which code of footy?
2. Holdens or Fords?
3. How many days will your local supermarket be open between now and Wednesday?
4. What natural disaster affected your area most recently?
5. Which are scarier: drop-bears, trap-door wombats or funnel-web spiders?

eff&em · 04-21-2011, 09:09 AM

Haha sorry I'm ALWAYS on the mark when it comes to picking up traits of message board members, being the online social expert I am.

I'm throwing caution to the wind and saying that you all fall into the jail bird sub-group??

eff&em · 04-21-2011, 09:30 AM

Mate..

1 - In my eyes there's only one code of footy, AFL. West Coast Eagles to be precise. For you.. Port or Crows??

2 - Holden. Dad owned them, I've owned them. I guess one of those great Aussie family things passed down the generations, however, the Holden or Ford debate is obsolete nowadays, seeing as it doesnt really mean anything anymore compared to the old days ya know? But it's still a relavent aussie question haha. Nice work.

3 - Dunno, I'll ask the missus, but the pubs open so steak sangas are always on the menu..

4 - Being from Perth, we wouldnt even know what the words natural disaster even mean. I actually genuinely believe Perth isn't a real place.. It's like a Pure Blonde commercial over here. Although we kind of have this ongoing problem in that it hasn't rained in 349 years and that makes me thirsty.

5 - I actually just had my girlfriends parents over from europe a couple months ago who could hardly speak english, told them we have crocodiles in the Swan River and they believed me the entire time. Taking them crabbing was the funniest thing I've ever seen because they were in constant fear of their life. The most dangerous living thing in the Swan River is ducks.

F&M = Finite Monkey?

Oh no, we're in trouble now!

infinite monkey · 04-21-2011, 11:49 AM

Will we implode?

Sundae · 04-21-2011, 12:38 PM

FnM, welcome on board.
We need another Aussie like we need a hole in the head, but don't let that worry you.
After all, we need somewhere to put the beer.

And I have to say I don't care if you ARE a sock puppet. I like you.

eff&em · 04-21-2011, 07:19 PM

I don't care if you are a cardboard box, as long as you're one of those cardboard boxes with something interesting to say..

You know maybe a good story, one of those boxes that fell off a truck and ended up stuck in the middle of a freeway causing all sorts of headaches until a homeless person picks you up and uses you for occupancy. Now if you're one of those boxes or similar, TALK TO ME, because i want the insight. I want to know what its like to be a box like that, it must be amazing to live the life that you have?

I'm losing it..
