It's not 'Send', it's the 'Culture Cup', stupid.

First topic message reminder :

Is this the thread split? I can never keep track. It's a sh*t one if it is.

Sicond, but I don't mind, next time I will try harder.

By God I will try harder.

Life goals, Galts.

Are you well?

rick, I love you. But we only have 24 hours to save the Earth.

Jules's alive!!!

Morning all. Another day ahead.

Feels good to be at the shortest day of the year here. Winter has not been so harsh thus far... but July is the coldest month for us. I always look at it (the seasons) in terms of the NRL rounds. It's round 16 now but by rounds 24,25,26,... it can start to feel warmer. So only about another 8 weeks of 'cooler' weather. I hope your summer is treating you all well!

Half-hearted fist.

Better than a half-assed fist.

Or a half-fisted heart.

Fourth. Like the firth but spelled differently. Or, similarly, fifth.

Morning, all.

Morning rick. Love's got the world in motion and I can't believe it's true.

Morning, Jules

Loves got the world in motion
And I know what we can do

(probably go out in the quarters as per usual)

Fixed that for you, Rick.

They may not be mutually exclusive TBH.

How goes the North?

It's warm which means that the Edinburgh neds see this as an excuse to drink 3 litre bottles of cheap cider all day and take off their tops and expose their pasty, emaciated bodies to innocent passers-by.

Is that just the women?

They can be quite androgynous up there (though I am basing this on Dundee)

Cake by the ocean.

Afternoon.

I have been tasked with knocking up a quiz for our areas night out. The mix is early 20's up to mid 40's and with varying degrees of intelligence...

Basically I need 5 rounds, which are amusing enough to hold the attention of drunk dumbasses for about an hour, including marking

Picture round will naturally be arse or elbow.

Last lines of films is always good.

Matching the murderer to the victim would hold their attention, be sure to include a recent local murder though so everyone whines about the quiz being in poor taste.

Feel free to suggest some lines from movies, supes.

Maybe we have the ripper and the crossbow cannibal around here, and DAVE obviously...

Varying degrees of difficulty

"Kevin! What did you do to my room?" Home Alone

"Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads!" - Back to the Future (and not Thelma and Louise).

"Well, nobody's perfect" - Some Like it Hot

"Hang on, lads; I've got a great idea." The Italian Job

"You Maniacs! You blew it up! Ah, damn you! God damn you all to hell!" Planet of the Apes (and possibly Playmate of the Apes)

"I do wish we could chat longer, but I'm having an old friend for dinner..." Silence of the Lambs

"Right after I got here, I ordered some spaghetti with marinara sauce and I got egg noodles and ketchup. I'm an average nobody. I get to live the rest of my life like a schnook." Goodfellas

"This is Ripley, last survivor of the Nostromo, signing off." Alien

"The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he did not exist. And like that... he is gone." The Usual Suspects.

"So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past." The Great Gatsby.

Nice one, cheers!

Yes, a moonlit twilight glint on my fist despite my brutally unfair antipodean location.

How's it going Mr G?

Not bad, broke a sweat yesterday due to the temperature hitting 30, must be what it's like for you on a winter's night.

A bit cool here. Heard someone whinging on TV about how cold Canberra is right now. It does get way below zero there. I quite like this fresh cold air. Nice during the day when the sun's out.

It's summer outside
But we're poles apart
It's 10 below zero
Here in my heart

A short cool winter
Here at Worlds End
Peru later tonight
I fear it might end

Just spent some of my lunch break happily reading through this old thread:

Brings back memories, the forum could only ever go downwards from that.

I think it peaked at Scent of a Willy.

F*ck me, the thread is over five years old.

It's frightening.

A lot's happened in that time - Tina died, the police finally caught up with Dave, Sean's unemployed and homeless, Shah lost most of his internet privileges at Guantanamo and Jeff decided he's too good for us and went on Twitter.

Reads like the close of a film when they tell you what became of everyone. Forgot to mention that Julius is pulling the strings in the Spanish midfield in what is surely his last world cup.

You're not the fist person to mention that Galted.
¿Que pasa notches?

You should shoot more instead of relying on this endless passing, no-one seems to want to accept responsibility.
