Well, what a great way to come back to my favorite (not quite family friendly anymore) forums!  PIAC's gone!    I don't want to bring up another whole discussion about this, though, because what he did was totally BLOCK-HEADED.  Smoove Moove.  I feel no need to be more careful around here because I have a clean slate here and I plan on staying here FOREVER. MWAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!

I really don't know what to say about the whole Grey Ninja situation, though.  If Grey leaves, who will help me fix all my stupid problems?  It's because of him that I'm into anime, can watch Scrapped Princes, have MGS and Xenogears, and now have a PC that can actually DO something.  Please don't go!  (or at least come every once and a while to check you private messages!).

Anyway, back to news, I'm borrowing FF7 for PC for CBB, so I can finally play it.  Stupid broken PS1 disk....  I also have another computer for my room, but I don't have a compatible keyboard or mouse so that's no good (for now, of course).

I also have this great plan for Christmas.  See, what I’ll do is hold my parents gifts hostage until I get what I want.  It’s perfect!

Well, it looks like things are about ready to get back on track, but I wanted to put my last two cents in regarding PIAC.  I'll miss him, he was a great part of the community, but we can't just let veteran posters get by doing stuff that would warrant an instant ban for anybody.  It simply wouldn't be just.

Now please, let's keep the Aussie thread about related discussions (not whether you're going to go play star fox or eat a sandwich).  If you have any more comments regarding PIAC please PM me or keep them to yourself.

Hey KN! Haven't seen you in a while.

Anyways, WHAT?! Grey Ninja is LEAVING?! Grey, you can't! Why are you doing this? You're like the seniorest senior member of the forums! If you leave, well, I dunno, maybe that title will go to thePerm but I'll have to miss TWO people. Could you do that to me, Grey?

Hm...something  Aussie...OH! I know. My school is taking people to Australia this summer. I want to go really bad. If I do, where do you recommend we go, Aussies?

I wish it snowed over here. I've always wanted a 'white Christmas'. Like that Christmas song where they say they're dreaming of a white Christmas... Umm.. I think it was called 'The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down'. I'm not a fan of Summer. Especially not on Christmas Day. "HEY, WAKE UP, IT'S 400000000 + 1 DEGREES OUTSIDE, LETS OPEN PRESENTS. UH OH, THE PLASTIC TREE'S MELTED ALL OVER THE ROOM AGAIN, WANT A BOILING HOT COFFEE?"

Yay! I came second place for funniest idiot over at Gamingforce, and second for best writer (don't know how the hell THAT happened!) *HAPPYMON*

ROLL OUT!

EDIIIIIIT: Yes, yes we do need to have another gaming night/something doo-wab. I'LL BRING PIE

I hope to get Mario Kart tonight.  I'll also refrain from mentioning PIAC, too.  Aside from mentioning him while refraining from mentioning him.  Yeah.

Grey Ninja leaving. . . gods, it'd be sad to see him go.  But life goes on. . . all I can say is that it will be quite a bit less cool here without you, man.

Berny: My guess is you guys would go to Sydney, which is home to a fair few Aussie PGCers (not me though )
Other suggestions may be Brisbane (home of the outcast one, who I'm not supposed to mention) or Adelaide (my home town, beautiful weather for most of the year :thumbsup

And I've just joined GF to spread the craziness!

lol Thanks Shifty.

I completely forgot that you guys have sweltering Christmases. That's a pity. Granted where I live, a white Christmas is only slightly less rare, it's still fun to wake up and open presents and look outside at the snow and open presents and play in the snow and open presents.
The real meaning of Christmas, kids, is GREED, plain and simple. The colors of Christmas are green and red. Green for the green eyed monster and red for the bloodshed you should cause to get exactly what you want.

Yeah, that used to be what Christmas meant to me. But now, its a lot less materialistic. That and the fact I have a job which means I don't need to wait around to get the stuff I want!

Sweltering Christmas? You've gotta try it at least. Not that I can recall a Christmas day above the century mark (fahrenheit of course ). Those days usually don't start until February, but I could be wrong.

I've wanted to experience a white christmas, so I'd probably jump at the chance in the future.

I had a really good quote not too long ago which said something like, "A real man is one who has a child's heart," and I believe it to the fullest... ^_^

But Christmas nowadays is more of a family get-together than present opening...That's because I've just told my parents what to get me the past several years...I hate surprises...

I'M GETTING A T-SHIRT FOR CHRISTMAS.
Parents asked me if I wanted anything this Christmas, I rattled off a few DVD/game titles.

"OH NO, WE'VE GOTTEN YOU ENOUGH GAMES AND DVDS"
'You haven't gotten me a game since Battletoads on NES, you've never bought me a DVD'
"ERR, YOU GET SHIRT. YOU NEED SOME CLOTHES, COME TO SHOPS TO PICK ONE OUT"

I picked out the crappiest shirt in K-Mart.

I'll ALWAYS be a kid.. on.. you know, inside. I don't ever want to be a serious old man that complains when a can of beans has gone up five cents at Woolworths. BACK IN MY DAY BEANS WERE CHEAP. ACK, MY HEART! TOO MUCH STRESS FROM BEING SERIOUS 24/7! *DEATH*

I used to get games all the time - for my birthday and for christmas. Now i have to buy them myself
Last year though, I got the cool ass 'James Bond: The Secret World of 007' by Dorling Kindersley, one of my fave publishers of informative books (they're so detailed!).
Its a shame the pressie i got for my sister wasn't as cool
Since me and my sister are all 'grown up' now, Christmas morning at my house just involves waking up, yelling HAPPY CHRISTMAS to each other, then going down to have some weet bix or something
So it's not all that flash, until we go to a relative's place, and since they have heaps of little kids, it gets more fun, and then we go places

You know, it WOULD be cool to wake up on christmas and see snow EVERYWHERE, but then getting places would be a hassle.
I'll have to visit my uncle in Canada (which i'm planning to do) during Christmas, just to see what it's like

*waves shaking finger at Berto and Mario*

No!  Not Billy Hatcher!  You must not let the egginess take hold of you!

*takes deep breath*

Anyways, those are some pretty deep Christmas lists...Santa is going to have a hard time bringing all those games...

I will always be a kid. . . I'll be on my deathbed and I'll start laughing when someone farts.

Okay, well, I've never been into that type of humor, but you can pretty much guarantee I'll be laughing at something, maybe playing Nintendo.

Christmas list?  Apparently it's already been bought, but I have asked for (may just get money for):
GBP
Mario and Luigi
Metroid Fusion
Fire Emblem
May get Killer 7, depending

Nope, no MSN at TAFE ;__;
Only another.. Ugh, 2 hours to go. I'm just sitting here not learning. *Thumbs up*

I also really want THUG. I've never really had any interest in the previous installments, but THUG just looks too damn cool. No copies at Target yesterday, and I tried getting a catalogue from the front counter but it was surrounded by fools returning stuff. Bah, whatever. I'll see what happens tomorrow. I'm sorta thinking of getting Rayman 3 at K-Mart if I can't get THUG. $39 is good nutmeg!

In the world of fleas, I'd say about....*looks at wrist*....half past that little hair over there.

Infernal Monkey is WRONG.  Santa IS real.   Easter bunny can burn and rot in hell.  

heh.  when I was but a wee one, I pictured the easter bunny has a small, white bunny with a giant claw that gave me eggs.  True story ^_^
