The Jawn Wiggs Memorial Room (mat & Glenn's Crap Thread v36.5)

[Lainey]

Reading this thread makes me sad that I wasn't around earlier! :(

[Kacky]

This place distracts me from homework. I could be studying!

[RollOn]

Yeah, I'm one of those who are pretty much done with the forum, I'm lurking less and posting ALOT less.

Me too! Pretty much the only reason i'm on here is because i'm at work and don't have any work to do until about 9 o'clock.



I'd never get my homework done cos of all the posting..but now, I reckon I could do my homework twice over and still post as often as I sometimes do.
I guess I'd need homework to actually do that though :p
I'm sure we could arrange that with a few younger forumers :p

[Caity]

It used to take FOREVER to read through the shit that was posted during school hours!

And it was good shit too :p

I'd never get my homework done cos of all the posting..but now, I reckon I could do my homework twice over and still post as often as I sometimes do.

I was the same haha, I used to live on here just about.
Wait.
I still do.

I remember when I used to be one of the biggest post whores around :pinch:

[Colezy]

I think that for me, the difference is that back then I used to post a lot of shit about the band and in the "intelligent-discussion-making-non-TLE" threads that mainly ended up in arguments between forumers :p

But now, I still post a fair bit about the band, but there's A LOT more other useless shit being typed from this keyboard!

[Boom King]

I don't do anywhere near as much real-time-banter posting as I used to. Usually its post a bunch of things-come back later-post again. styles. Real time banter posting is more fun.

I remember those threads, it was amusing to read other people's useless banter about each other that had absolutely nothing to do with the thread lol

[Jessii]

Remember the chat room?

[Kacky]

Still up too!

http://thelivingend.com/chat/

[Colezy]

Remember the chat room?
Good times!!

[Kacky]

The chat room was before my time here, sadly!

[RollOn]

Remember the chat room?

I could never get it to work!

[Shadow]

Naww, the chat room. There was never anyone in there when I went in.

I'm thinking of starting "The Embarassing Confessions / Secret Shame Thread", but I don't know if there's any point. People just post in any topic these days anyway :p.

[May]

I thought there already was a 'things no-one knows about you' type thread, and theres the 'irrational crush' thread, but yeah, people just blurt out whatever, wherever these days.

[May]

I could never get it to work!
I dont think you were missing much by the time you joined the boards.

Was good til 'round Roll On then started to die in the arse.
I blame Craig leaving. Just btw...

[Colezy]

I remember it being ok around 2004/2005 when I first found it.

Better than what the forums are like now!

[May]

We were down here by then, and I had all but abandoned chat cos it was pretty shit. lol
And Nic, I reckon the forums now are better than what chat was then... jmho

Used to be good when you could jump on at 4 in the morn, and if the Melb crew or Trav weren't on, then US Jake or Nancy or Malia or Cris would be.

[worry_rock]

Yeah.. Somewhat sadly, I almost never go into any section of the forum anymore that is actually about TLE haha. I mean, sure I still dig them and all but I don't need to collect their photos and go into deep analysis of why they picked a certain song to be released and stuff like that.

Straight to the Off-Topic section to talk bullshit for me :p


Hmm... also, this isn't going to win me any fans but doesn't anyone else think that everyone liking everyone (bar Grumma... who, actually, people seem to don't mind these days haha) is boring?? Like resident bitch, Mirm, has vanished. There's no Jawn to cause trouble. The infamous John. I secretly feel that some people on the forum are kind of suck-ups (for lack of a better word) with a desperate-to-be-liked/accepted mentality. But I don't know, maybe it really is a mutual love fest.

There's my bit of honesty for the day...

[Boom King]

It had a sort of resurgance around 2003/2004. That's when I started to post in it. Probably a different crowd to whatever you're talking about though.
I still had fun for a while.

[Colezy]

I just think that there were more interesting people to talk to! Maybe I'm remembering it wrong! :p

I wish Mirm would come back! And yep, some people here are suck-ups, for sure! I just hope that I don't come across like that. I do like a lot of people here, but I'm fairly sure that people know who I don't like so much :p


PS - where are all you elite forum kids? NOTHING is going on there!

I never actually realised mirm was a bitch, probably because I was friends with her.

There's heaps of people I don't really like ^_^ I just can't be bothered to cause or contribute to arguments all that much. Actually, I have found myself finding the nicest way to say something a couple of times. Maybe I should have a 'no editing or backspace-ing' policy!

[May]

There's my bit of honesty for the day...
A) This 'people' still minds Graham.
B) The forum is boring, and maybe the general ease in the place is something to do with it.
C) I accept that not everyone will love or hate anyone else here, so I just speak my mind, get along with those I get along with, and ignore the tripe. If that's a love fest, then huzzah!
Until I can shake this habit, viva la mutual lovefest! lol

Haha as much as Mirm made the forum more interesting, I don't want her back. Never liked her :p And I'm so glad I wasn't crucified for my last post. (Yet)

[Boom King]

I have tried to keep the elite forum thing alive! You can't blame meeeee!

[May]

Haha as much as Mirm made the forum more interesting, I don't want her back. Never liked her :p And I'm so glad I wasn't crucified for my last post. (Yet)
I've never had alot in common with Mirm, but I liked her spirit. Called/s it like she saw/sees it.
Even when I disagreed with her argument, I generally liked her approach.

But I can see why she wasnt necessarily easy to get along with.


As for your crucifixion, maybe if this was back then, you'dve been flamed, but who cares that much anymore? lol

[Colezy]

Agreed with Mays last post.

/being too lazy to write anything else.

[Colezy]

No, the people who don't ever go on there should become semi-elitists and we shall remain elitists :p

I reckon I've avoided saying anything to some things I've disagreed with... I think that drug thing was the first thing I've argued about...

And I look at the other forums just in case there's something interesting in there, if it's all "Oh my god the album STILL isn't platinum" (sorry JG and anyone else like that, but that annoys me, I really shouldn't bother) or other crazy obsessive stuff like that I just skim it or close it

[The Dying Start]

I'm a suck up. The truth is, i hate you all, and i'm going to start being really arrogant, say stupid shit of no real value, grow a beard, try to be like Scott Owen, buy a bass, get it pimped by the ethnic boys down at the local wreckers, put some neons in it and then fuck off.

[Boom King]

I havn't noticed you being a suck up. You are the one that people suck up to.

[Jessii]

Yeah i never thought Mirm was a bitch....

[Mogle]

I dont know who any of them are:happy:

I know what you mean, Charissa. Except in saying that, now I feel like I'm a suck-up because I'm agreeing with you :p

I figured Mirm had her 'moments' but just kinda ignored them because I don't think many really applied to me (unless I forget?) but yeah - I just giggled quietly or ignored them *shrugs*

I think it's just yourself, Caity and me now.

Yeah no one else really goes there - I think everyone forgot.

No, the people who don't ever go on there should become semi-elitists and we shall remain elitists :p

WE SOUND LIKE KARL MARX. Or some such person.

Wow! I haven't seen that written on here in AGES!

you obviously havent seen chovies' sig :p

[MODERNART.illery]

well i just thought it was pretty apt. sure, i haven't been here that much longer than he has, but i used to surf the forums a loooong time before i signed up. and i can actually respect people that made this board what it is not going off "i don't even know who she is. i'm just going to waste forum bandwidth by posting shit that no-one wants to hear(/read".

[RollOn]

you obviously havent seen chovies' sig :p

lol honestly can't say I have or if I have I can't remember seeing it.
I don't really pay that much attention anymore, just do some lurking and posting at work when i'm bored.

[mattheal]

his sig is something along the lines of "warning n00b"

[RollOn]

At least he comes with a warning unlike some of them.

[mattheal]

this is true.. gotta thank him for that

[Kacky]

I got my phone bill this morning. It's slightly higher than I had expected due to calling a certain Canadian to talk to a certain band member :p And from the texts haha But it's all good :)

Can I come over and see your brother, Nic? :p

[Colezy]

Sure, but he wont be back home until tomorrow sometime :p

[Kacky]

Ok, I need a day to get there anyway! Hahaha.

[Jessii]

This is random, but i was reading about the story of Pinocchio, cause my friend is Italian and obsessed and collects pinocchio stuff, but hates the disney version cause it changes story. There are posters everywhere cause its the 60th anniveresy of disney movie, and dvds have alternative ending ect.

I forgot how dark it was and that the movie scared me as a kid... it said that in the 1800s when first writing the book, the author ended it by having pinocchio hang himself! Soooo wrong!

what the fuck is going on with facebook. these changes are shocking!

[damo0945]

Am I the only one that doesn't find it that different to the last one?

The change isn't drastic. I'm sick of hearing/seeing people complain about it though, get over it.

[private_eye]

i can't read wall posts that are longer than 3 lines, can't see the photos i'm tagged in, can't see the comments people leave on things i say... it doesn't make sense

[Kacky]

There are tabs at the left, click on them.

[private_eye]

no i mean on my actual page, not the news feed

[KillingInTheNameOf]

the tabs on the left were on the old version and no one ever used them because we had the live feed/pictures thing etc

[Kacky]

I just usually wait for notifications to pop up.

[KillingInTheNameOf]

Oh, and you can't even find events. Which is probably the most annoying thing so far

[mattheal]

there is a tab for events on the side :p

[KillingInTheNameOf]

It doesn't work very well then because the only ones that show up are ones I haven't even been invited to.

[Kacky]

Search the events under "search."

[KillingInTheNameOf]

Why would I want to take the time to do that when originally I could have just clicked 'events - view all' to see them?

[Kacky]

Click applications (at bottom near chat) > click events.

[KillingInTheNameOf]

cbf.

I'll just go back to using myspace. or go the old fashioned way and use email lol

[The Dying Start]

i feel so mean! i just realised the poor birds are still outside and their cage is too heavy for me to bring inside!

Just deal! They're birds, they're designed to deal with the elements. The only time you really have to worry is if they're outside in 40 degree heat during the day, because in a cage they obviously can't seek shade or water if they run out/spill it.

[Jessii]

Weird how i was talking about Pinocchio before, i won the dvd today!

I got an HD for my first (mini) assessment task ever at uni :D
I'm well pleased seeing as I did it the morning it was due.

I'd take this to the tertiary education thread but I don't feel learn-ed enough to talk about university in there. (Also, I know it's just spelt learned but if you spell it like that it just seems like you should say it like "lernd"!)

[Boom King]

pfft, post it in there! You are learn-ed enough to contribute.

[Jessii]

While going through donations at op shop today, unpacking donations, i came across the most awesome vintage 70s cowboy shirt ever. The girls in store squealed and said its the best thing they've ever been given, i was about to buy it for my dad, when a guy saw it and was like "I want that!!" and i would of felt mean saying no.... but yeah i've never seen a shirt that awesome.

Also my sister is very happy, shes obsessed with the brand Alannah Hill, but it all costs like $500+ and i found a top there of that brand for $10!!!

[Kacky]

Reason why I shouldn't be up this late: while I'm listening to music, I keep thinking I hear mom calling my name. No idea why!

There's one song I have that a bit sounds kinda like when you get a message on msn

And there's a Blink one that has a phone tinging noise in it
Also that Beyonce song "All The Single Ladies" or whatever it is sounds like my ring tone

[The Dying Start]

The friends I was with didn't want to go in because they thought it looked dodgy from the outside :p It's good once you're in there though.

[Neo]

I get stuff like that sometimes...
There's one song I have that a bit sounds kinda like when you get a message on msn

oh man theres a reel big fish song that does that to me! it bothers me so much that the next song I make im going to include that sound in it purposely :p

also the phone noise i can hear in a TLE song. cant remember which one though :laugh:

[worry_rock]

Wow, St Jeromes closing. Myer must have payed them a fuckload? It's always full.

[The Dying Start]

The friends I was with didn't want to go in because they thought it looked dodgy from the outside :p It's good once you're in there though.

Lmao. Good call, I'll pay that!

[private_eye]

one day after uni we were there and some guy was smoking weed. 2 of my mates and i smelt it and thought nothing of it. another one of our mates, a total cleanskin, smelt it, screwed up her nose, pulled out her perfume and started spraying the air. almost died of laughter

[The Dying Start]

Hahaha. Naiivety. How delightfully amusing.

[Colezy]

I met Paul Kelly tonight :)

He put on a good gig. I didn't see much of it, only the last five minutes after we'd packed the bars up. It was still good though.

This was my view from up in the AV techs room!

[Lainey]

Skype! I love that program :)

[mattheal]

Anyone have Skype?

i have it but i haven't used it since my sister got back from japan

[The Dying Start]

I haven't used your sister since she got back from japan.

[mattheal]

glad to hear it glenn

[Ben reed]

Anyone have Skype?

yesum:)
great to talk to people when they're over-seas, or even just webcam because msn for mac is shit!

[Neo]

I thought about getting it but I have no friends who use it haha

[Shadow]

I've considered getting Skype, but still haven't bothered. If someone can give me 5 good reasons to get it, I will. Plus you will have changed my life! ZOMGZ!LKDASD

[Kacky]

You can talk to me. :)

[Aaron]

I only ever used it to talk to my family or girlfriend while I was living away from home, or she was overseas. But it's not the kind of program I leave on all the time, like MSN (or Digsby, actually).

So, you might make use of it, or you might not? Depends on the situation.

[Burner]

Yeah i got skype, i know peopl,e in Holland and India, amoung some old friends i grew up with. Don't really use it much though, I use my laptop for other things.

[Caity]

I have Skype, I talk to my grandpa's best friend on it, my uni lecturers, and I used it while I was in America.

[The Dying Start]

Get your own friends, shit Caitlyn.

[Caity]

You spelled my name wrong!

[Kacky]

Caitlin. :)

[Shadow]

So I'd need a microphone, which I'd have to search my house for since I haven't used it in ages, but do I need a webcam too?

[mattheal]

nope, you dont need a webcam, it can just act like a phone

[Caity]

You can have a webcam, but you don't need one.

[The Dying Start]

You spelled my name wrong!

You should be Caiti then. Baha!

[Caity]

But why? The 'y' or 'i' has nothing to do with how the full name is spelled! That's like saying someone with a nickname of Dave should spell his full name Daved!

[Neo]

Glenn fail english?

:p

[mel_bound]

That's unpossible!

I'm gonna start calling everyone Daved from now on... good thing I don't know any Daveds.

Awesome! Thanks Jess :)

[mattheal]

thanks Jess, I Entered :happy:

[The Dying Start]

But why? The 'y' or 'i' has nothing to do with how the full name is spelled! That's like saying someone with a nickname of Dave should spell his full name Daved!

Yes...that's right. You grasp these concepts awful quickly.

[Kacky]

I'm talking to myself via Skype right now. I just called my house to try it out and I can't seem to get my mic loud enough, hmm.

[mattheal]

is it a built in one?

[The Dying Start]

Here's a thought. TALK LOUDERRRRRRR

[Lainey]

I'm talking to myself via Skype right now. I just called my house to try it out and I can't seem to get my mic loud enough, hmm.

Is it expensive to do such a thing?

[mattheal]

its seriously cheap, you can call international from skype talk for like an hour, and it will cost you around $1 max

EDIT: thats to an actual phone, to someone else using skype on their comp its free :)

[Lainey]

Yeah I gathered that much about calling someone else with skype but something like a dollar an hour international is a fantastic rate!
How do you go about paying? Do you have to set up a credit card or something?

[mattheal]

yessum, credit card is the way to go

[Neo]

I gave in and downloaded skype. I called my mum's phone at work today from it even though i have no skype credit! O.o

[Lainey]

Nawww but I don't have a credit card :(

[Kacky]

I gave in and downloaded skype. I called my mum's phone at work today from it even though i have no skype credit! O.o

You can do it once free to try. I can't call out to phones anymore.

[The Dying Start]

Nawww but I don't have a credit card :(

HELLOOOOO. Steal one off an old person. Duh.

[Boom King]

Its very easy to get a visa debit card these days. Plus I think you can even get 'gift card' style visa cards. Easy.

[Lainey]

Oh yeah I forgot about those dealys! Having said that I'll never get round to doing it :p

[Kacky]

I love how they have gift card ones. Makes it easier for online purchasing purposes.

Mom's going to be a little miffed that I slept all day!

[The Dying Start]

...with the boy next door.

[Kacky]

Nah, I'm afraid I had no one in bed with me.

[Boom King]

I just got paid my free money from k.rudd (the training and learning one, not the tax one yet) hooray. Free money is pretty awesome.

[Kimjar]

My free money is now just going on paying bills since I can't work and junk and Centrelink only give me a small amount. Lame. I was planning on spending it on a new fridge and washing machine for when I move out again! :(

[Kacky]

I haven't started filing my taxes yet. Wouldn't be worth it seeing has I didn't work fully for a whole year and took a month off for a vacation. Next year I'll start, I think.

I hate that my work experience placement has moved and doesn't have the same workers. I was all settled in and used to my job then they go ahead and pack up without telling me!

I love pickles. Tangy!

edit: confuzzled this with the love hate thread. Meh.

[Neo]

Happy earth hour east coast people!!

time to turn off the computer now. see you in an hour :D

[Colezy]

I went one step further - this is the first time I have turned mine on all day! (Was posting from my iPod early this morning).

[Amur]

we'll have earth hour in six hours. :D

[Caity]

I was at a 21st tonight so we turned the lights off and had an hour of candlelight - it was really nice!

[Kacky]

Earth Hour isn't here yet, might be hard to get mom off the couch if she decides to plop her butt there when she gets home. :p

[Lainey]

I was at a 21st tonight so we turned the lights off and had an hour of candlelight - it was really nice!

Getting sloshed by candlelight doesn't sound half bad actually!

[Kacky]

What we did this year to participate: go in the basement, flick a switch = everything turns off, even the refrigerator. Then we all went out for an hour. No electricity was flowing to this place.

[Lainey]

Wow that sounds easy! A little, too easy... :p

[May]

Wondering if anyone round these parts knows, or has more luck than me in searching, how to make a monkey puzzle, or one of those cylindrical da vinci types puzzles? :huh:

[Kacky]

Was really easy, except we had to get upstairs in the dark. :p

[Lainey]

Now that's a recipe for disaster!

[Kacky]

Had our cellular devices for light. :D

[Caity]

Getting sloshed by candlelight doesn't sound half bad actually!

It was pretty fun, the party was 1920's themed, so they had hired tables & dealers from the Australian Masters Poker place, and we sat around playing poker and blackjack by candelight haha! It was great!

[The Dying Start]

I spent earth hour turning on all the elctrical devices i could find. I wanted to use up as much of the spare electricity as i could while no one else was.

[Ben reed]

What we did this year to participate: go in the basement, flick a switch = everything turns off, including all the lights. Then we all went onto the floor and starting boinking for an hour.

sounds like fun chelsea;)

[Shadow]

What happened to the Boob Thread? Or did I dream that?
*confusion*

[Lainey]

I spent earth hour turning on all the elctrical devices i could find. I wanted to use up as much of the spare electricity as i could while no one else was.

You probably did more good than bad to be honest.

[Kacky]

sounds like fun chelsea;)

Yeah, incest is something the whole family can enjoy.

I played poker at my mate's place on friday night. Few drinks, got stoned. GOT REALLY SICK. Felt rubbish. Could no longer participate in poker fun times. Sat in the bathroom resting for at least an hour. I'm not sure. My concept of time was ridiculously warped. That is all.

[Ben reed]

you got it!;)

beer before grass...

[Colezy]

Fun Fact #3058:
Red wine, vodka, champers, chocolate and grass all in the one night don't mix.

Trust me.

[Boom King]

so, you know I've been doing my family history right.
WELL
Turns out I made a mistake at the very beginning on my paternal grandfather's side. The person I thought was my great-grandfather actually died in 1961. (the real one only died last year) So now I don't even know this great-grandfather's name. Of course with 'jones' its pretty difficult. All I know is that his wife's name is coral but she isn't my grandfather's mother.

I suppose I could ask him but I don't really feel comfortable with that because I only see him once a year and I don't know him that well.

D'oh.

[Shadow]

Fun Fact #3058:

Trust me.
Well, not all at once, I'm sure. :laugh:

[Colezy]

No, not at once :p But a few drinks (or more...a lot more) of each and followed by smoking that over rated shit followed by more drinks and chocolates = sick Nicole :p

We were camping in the middle of no where, so it's not like we had to clean up any vomit :p

It was a fun trip though, we met lots of cool people!

[private_eye]

smoking that over rated shit f
:wassat: :ohmy:

[Colezy]

haha, well I was so freaking sick that night and the next morning. Probably from too much alcohol though.

Maybe there'll be a next time, who knows. If so, I'll let you know what I think then :p

[Shadow]

haha, well I was so freaking sick that night and the next morning. Probably from too much alcohol though.
Actually, it could've been the chocolate... you never know!

[Colezy]

That's a possibility as we did have 5kg's to share between 8 people!!
Well it was originally three people, but then we met out camping neighbours and we shared with them in return for firewood :p

[Boom King]

I've never smoked da ganja, i've only ever consumed it in baked form.

When it comes to drugz the best are the kind you find in a pharmacy but I was always under the impression you people are pretty anti-drugs so thats the last you'll here of this from me.

[Colezy]

I'm not anti-drugs...except for when people take it to a whole new level and totally stuff up their lives by being dependant on them.

Anyhoo.

[Boom King]

Well, yeah. I'm anti-fucking up your life too!

[The Dying Start]

I suppose I could ask him but I don't really feel comfortable with that because I only see him once a year and I don't know him that well.

D'oh.

Just ask him. Tell him you're curious and want to know more and i'm sure he'd oblige where he can.

[Boom King]

nah, I think i'll abandon the whole thing for a while.


He sort of intimidates me actually. I can't remember the last time I had an actual conversation with him.

<telephone call>
Hey, old man dude. Its me...uh...one of your 20 grandkids, you know, Kylie!
Oh...do you want some money?

[Shadow]

I'm personally anti-drugs myself, but it's up to other people what they do, really.

[Boom King]

Si tu l'aimais, ben tu aurais dû lui passer la bague au doigt.
Wenn es dir gefallen hat, hättest du einen Ring drauf setzen sollten!
Si bien te gustó, a lo mejor debías haberle puesto un anillo.
Dacă ţi-a plăcut, atunci ar fi trebuit să pui un inel pe el!
m du gillade det borde du ha satt en ring på det

[Jessii]

If anyone remembers the saga of how i left my library job i'd been at for 5 yrs for another job, only to be fired in a week and been unemployed for a yr THE LIBRARY NEED ME BACK!!!!!! Only temporairly at first because my replacement is in hospital, but he said that he might not come back, at which case they said i will get the job again.

[Kacky]

Aww, hope things work out!

[The Dying Start]

That's terrible Chelsea, how can you hope someone dies just so Jessii can have a job.

[Kacky]

I didn't mean it in that way!

[Jessii]

That's terrible Chelsea, how can you hope someone dies just so Jessii can have a job.

My dads nice words were "Let's hope he dies!!"

I'm not keeping my hopes up of getting permenent job back. but im incredibly happy they remember me and have asked me back even if it's not forever!

[Boom King]

I hope he gets out of hospital and decides he'd rather work in a...hospital than a library. See, no thought -harm done there.

[private_eye]

bob evans' new album is out tomorrow

:):):)

[Colezy]

I'm so annoyed that I can't catch any of his gigs when he tours in may :(

[skitbra]

Our puppy is allergic to her flea treatment. Immediately after we gave it to her, she went berserk for a few minutes, then when that stopped she was completely out of it for about 24 hours - she didn't respond to anything, was pacing around aimlessly like she was looking for something but kept forgetting what she was doing, her eyes were glassy and dazed - she was like a zombie. Very scary. But thankfully she's back to her normal self now, and she won't be getting that medicine ever again.

[The Dying Start]

Until she's a teenager and starts huffing it beind the bike sheds.

[The Dying Start]

'sgoin on?

[Jessii]

Paul finally bought all my stuff over after cancelling on me 7 times.

Is this karma, he's OBSESSED with Kate Moss, and he had free tickets to V festival today and didn't go, and a bunch of his friends met Kate Moss there.

[Colezy]

Ha! And why the heck did he NOT go to V Festival..especially with free tickets!

According to facebook, I am a penis.

[mattheal]

A very reliable source :p

hehe Whose Line Is It Anyway is awesome :D

[The Dying Start]

It sure is.

And why is Nicole a penis?

[mattheal]

[Jessii]

I go back to work today. Yay.

[Neo]

[mattheal]

[Kacky]

What in the world? There's a huge line of snow coming towards us on the radar...

Please shift course, thx.

[Craigels]

Does anyone know any sites that have a timeline of metals over the last 8000 years or so?

[Boom King]

http://www.mpoweruk.com/elements.htm

you have to identify which ones aren't actually metals but i'm sure you can work it out.

[Craigels]

Thanks :).

[Jessii]

That's terrible Chelsea, how can you hope someone dies just so Jessii can have a job.

So... i asked today if he's ok... he's in a mental hospital due to schizophrenia!

[Kacky]

Haha "snow day" in April, I swear the bus drivers just wanted a day off, it's perfectly fine, it's just windy and slushy.

[Lainey]

it's just windy and slushy.

So glad I don't have days like that anymore. :)

[Kacky]

Yeah, it went from nice to absolute crap.

[Lainey]

Sounds like one minute in Melbourne! :p

[Kacky]

Melbourne's weather > our local weather.

[Lainey]

Melbourne's weather > ANYBODY's weather!

[Boom King]

I like Brisbane's weather at the moment. Its been raining for a week!

[Kacky]

Wanna trade? xo
