I missed the big party at 100k posts! :(
Anyway, I'm back. But I logged on this morning and dam was there a lot of news in the 12 days that I wasn't here. Seems like there's been a lotta stuff going on...
Maybe I'll make a website and post some pictures from the trip (couldn't post all twelve rolls of film though :D)
So how was the party?
P.S. Just to say, the modems in China are crap. I managed to get online on one, and just to load my email account on AOL took five minutes...just to open //www.aol.com! :snipe:
Hehehe I think I gained about 10 pounds though, they sure feed you well there. ;)
-
Did you eat any cat? I hear they make them real tasty over there.
-
I didn't see any cats, or dogs, or crickets on a stick, but I did see pig snout...
Two things I learned in China:
Chinese *****, so small (Edit: sorry if this offends anyone, but it seemed to be true. I saw it for myself in the sauna and promptly got out)
BONNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
:D
Yes I have been smoking too much opium with the opium pipe that my friend's dad bought there ;)
Three problems I had with China:
The showerhead was too low (I'm about six feet tall but still)
The bed was too small (my feet stuck out the end)
and the worst one of all,
THE TOILET SEAT WAS TOO SMALL!!! :eek:

I should take you to Japan with me one day. At least you had toilets. Imagine my surprise when I have to go to the bathroom in a train station and discover there is no toilets, just urinals and booths with a trough in the floor... I thought someone had stolen the toilet, but these troughs are pretty common in Japan.
On a less scatological note, how was the size of the doors and the like? I'm over six feet, and I had trouble for a long time in Japan because the doors are cut at PRECISELY six feet. It was nuts.
-
Hmmph..
Reminds me of an episode of the Simpsons...

:D This really reminds me of some of my trips to India; I have been there seven times now and have always found strange things with the toilets in my relatives' houses. The houses usually contain one normal toilet, but the rest of the bathrooms have these depressions in the floor instead. :p
Also, there is no toilet paper; people apparently somehow use water instead, so I have to take some from here whenever I visit there. :p
-
I would rather have no toilet than have toilets like I found in these French public toilets. There was **** EVERYWHERE. It was smeared up the walls, in the sink, across the floor, all over the mirrors, clogging up the toilets, on the ceiling. Although strangely enough, none was on the toilet seat.
Another french place had these two mini-pillars raised from this thing that looked like the bottom of a shower. You basically had to stand on the pillars and piss on the floor. Apparently people had been trashing the urinals so they installed the floor pissing things.

Getting a little pudgy there, AWACS? *poke* ;)
-
Asian food is something special. It's had hundreds (thousands?) of years to be refined and made into something really kick-arse. I love it. :D
-
Asian food? hrmm... :doubt:
Oooh, some noodles...yummy...ooh! A fortune cookie too, and honey chicken! *munch munch*
-
Bah, that's... well, I have a word for it, but a) it's not very polite, & b) you wouldn't understand it, since it's Cantonese Chinese. ;) It roughly means 'crappy westernised food'...
-
some asian restaurants's are really dodgy now, they've had to pamper to western taste.... there's one on pennant hills road... which none of you would know about...
-
If you'd read my black text, you wouldn't known that I agree completely. :)
Oh, and Pennant Hills Rd. is... uhhh, moderately close to where both icespeed and I live. :)
-
black text is too hard to read. requires too much FINGER MOVEMENT.
come on, lazy me, you wouldn't expect me to bother doing that for all the posts....:p
-
Finger movement? FINGER MOVEMENT? A click and drag. That's mostly hand movement, anyhow. :p

But I've seen toilets like the one you describe (the... not clean ones), in england, I guess someone was damn ill :p

no, i'm like you, I post either for fun, either for useful stuff. The admins can reset my post count if they want, i wouldn't care much.
What's important for me, actually, is the post count in my forum, coz it shows the interest ( or lack of interest ) for my campaign :nod:
-
We can fix that!

Increase?
Why would I help you? We'll just transfer all the threads over to MT then delete them.
-
Why? coz you're my host and Setekh told me he would do anything he can to help out :D
-
Yeah, but I'm not Setekh. :ha:

Well, we started with how Chinese toilets, if you can find one that's not a hole in the ground are too small, then we ended up fighting over whether venom knows the entire MT storyline or not...:doubt:

Somebody should try mixing TANG with b33r...:devilidea

That'd be a terrible waste of beer... :p

But it might make the TANG taste better

But the beer! Think of the waste of beer!
