§nake 0 Posted April 5, 2002 Some that I've heard that I either "don't get" or would rather not hear again... A very commenly used one with some of my aussie friends over at insidegamers.net "Mate" normally I would recognize this.. but at an overused stage... it's very bad... Another... some of my UK squad members... like to use the word "Shag"... I guess it goes with the whole 60's thing.. but... damned it scared the crap outta me... ------- Things not to say to others (An American speaking): never... NEVER aknowlege a foreign buddy that you understand by saying two words.. "I See" I have done this 4 times... each time they turn defensive and beging screaming at me.. wondering what it is I see.... yet within the next 5 minutes they use the abriviation "i c" and I won't even say a damned word.... You guys got some pros and cons on this topic?? (note: no racial segregation allowed... ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wobble 1 Posted April 5, 2002 hmm.. Words and other things that will result in wobble killing you: "haxor" "l337" "d00d" any word where a "ph" replaces a "F" for no goddamn reason.. I.E. "phat" retarded spelling for the sake of it.. like spelling Jason "Geison" overuse of abbreviations "I C, U sk8?" use some real fucking words! the word "ghey" call them gay or a fag, "ghey" is fucking queer! "shite" its SHIT.. get it right, afriad to say shit? say dooky, shite is shitty. putting quotes around words or phrases noboday has said on that thread yet for no apparent reason. quote me.. FUCK YOU! "FUCK YOU!" over use of CAPS to TRY and EXPLAIN, that YOU are TRYING to get a POINT across.. like YOU are YELLING or have TERETS syndrome. writing really rude things and then putting a like its some majical tool that admonishes you of anything you say.. I hope your mother is boiled alive by the gestapo and and chopped up and fed to gay (NOT GHEY) gorillas and then shit onto your own head!!... .. . . .. .. . ... . . .. . ahh.. more to come..

Warin 0 Posted April 5, 2002 ---> hands Wobble some Midol Though I do have to agree that 13375p34k is just insane. I think you're wrong about shite. Shite is a good British Isles term and has been for years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean I speak three languages, and I can pretty often descipher written phrases in languages I don't even know by looking at them and comparing the sound/grammar to the ones I know, It's how I desciphered the message at the end of OFP, right after the "group photo" scene...it uses a different alphabet but when I sounded it out it was very close to Russian, if I'm not mistaken it goes along the lines of "Dedicated to those that died so that we may live"... but that damn "l337" has me stumped Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
USSoldier11B 0 Posted April 5, 2002 Word that gets on my nerves: sik i.e. "OFP is a sik game." ? Run it through Norton then. I believe this word is derived from "ill" i.e. "OFP has some ill sounds" I believe ill is officially an ebonics term, but sik? Did that come from a buch of whities trying to be cool.

Warin 0 Posted April 5, 2002 Tovarish, It's supposed to mean 'elite' 1337=leet Get it? Using numbers and symbols to represent letters they vaguely resemble. 3 for E, 4 for A, 5 for S.

Warin 0 Posted April 5, 2002 you're just a llama, Snake. I love CS..and I guess I play on more 'adult' servers, ecause I rarely see |337 speak anymore. try slackers united server sometime if you can get a decent ping. www.slackersunited.com It's a great server, but the admins can be sorta pushy sometimes.

Major Fubar 0 Posted April 5, 2002 Wobble, I agree with you 100%. These stupid internet abbreviations are just that...stupid. I mean, what the f**k is roxorz, or I337T. Evry time I see someone using these online I instantly assume I'm dealing with some pimply face 14 year old cyber geek. using these expression make's you look like a tool to anyone with a brain.

In his earlier posts he admitted he is eating Ripped Force or analogous drugs, which means he is stuffed full of caffeine and every other legal stimulant there is. Having a half dozen stimulants acting on you simultaneously have the tendency to make you a little EDGY. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hilandor 1 Posted April 5, 2002 indeed he is, as it says two long legs and two short legs, the way to catch them is by ambushing them on the side of a mountain and using a sythe, u swing at its longer legs cutting them off this causes the haggis to fall of balance and roll down the hill into a large net Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
