legov Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I thought ME looked 30. Ok, a bit younger. 30 is nice at any rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legov Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 **** Internet's down here again, apart from VT. I have no idea what it is about VT, but it's always stays on even when the rest of the Internet crashes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted April 13, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted April 13, 2011 VT threads that I have no interest in. I find it very satisfying to see the top twenty or so threads all with the blue icon showing that I've read them. If there's an orange one indicating a new posting I have the urge to read it. Unless it's one on wresting or golf or some such, which I avoid like the plague. Of course I could just click the "Mark all threads as read" thing, but that seems like cheating.

villaajax Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Growing up. Everyone wants money off you for something. "Can I borrow £X?" "You owe me £X" (even though I never borrow money from anyone so I really don't owe anyone anything). I have things to save for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Urban Dictionary entry #2 says it best... Man dem A saying of Caribbean origin which quite literally translates as "the chaps over there" or "those fellows yonder". The saying has found it's way into British street use mainly due to the influence of gangs and/of rapists in urban areas. Nowadays it has evolved to a greeting or to refer to anyone else of similar mental capacity. Gregory: "oh my daze man dem, has you bin heerin NDubz new record?" Terrence: "i know it mandem they fo sho' wont think twice about ending manz life, y ou get me?" Gregory: "we got no doe bro, lets pretend our position is enviable" Terrence: "god, we is spaz'" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
