  1. Memes were around before the internet. Richard Dawson coined the term meme and it's just a cultural and social concept that is meant to evolve. I can not stress that word enough, meme implies evolution. Internet memes were originally called so because it almost mirrors natural selection. Stupid jokes would die off and never seen again (weak animals) strong jokes would spread and evolve (they would be altered etc.). A true sign of a true meme is when it becomes another meme altogether. This is the best instance I can find. Memes aren't made they are born. You can not stick words on a picture and say it's an individual meme. IT'S FALLS UNDER A CATERGORY OF MEME CALLED "IMAGE MACRO".
  2. @CHOULO19, Regarding that comic, a lot of little kids believe in solipsism, it's just easier for their little minds to handle. I know for a fact I did. Or did I?
  3. Shaddup. At least we don't get rolled over by the Germans every 50 or so years...
  4. The terms 'great' and 'Bluesmaster' are mutually exclusive.
  5. I think this season will be the last. A canceled show.
  6. I actually think the scenario couldn't get much worse than that. I can tell you 100% it would not have happened.
  7. That would explain my extreme SWAG. I'm so SWAG it can't be contained in one body.
  8. It doesn't bother me really, because I did nothing wrong. I think I'll give her a pass in the future, too much emotional baggage there.
  9. Sort of, I've been talking to her. Kind if weird sitting on public transport though.
  10. Awkward as fuck. What a pain, now I have to get home.
  11. Everything was going quite well till her parents called and fucked everything up. They were threatening her, taking away her scholarships, money, etc. she was practically crying. Nothing goes Jake's way.
  12. Happy birthday. Eat some cake.
  13. I love how Leif gets actual advice and I just get 'lick her out'.
  14. HAHAHAHAHAHA. That's what my mate's really racist dad said. Even though he is a poor as all hell apprentice plumber. http://www.badassoftheweek.com/australia.html http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Saxton_Hale
  15. Bagpipes - Introduced by the Romans from Turkey. Haggis - Introduced by Vikings, specifically Norwegian. Scotch - Eventually found it's way to the Highlands during the 15th century. Said to have originated in Babylonia. Tartan - Originated in Austria as early as 400BC even earlier was found Eurasia. Wasn't Scottish 'traditional clothes' till the 18th century. Penicillin- Was only discovered by a Scot. It's actual medical application was invented by three men an Australian, German and a Pom. Celtic FC - Irish Immigrants Golf - An evolution of a Roman game called paganica. William Wallace did not wear tartan nor did he wear a kilt. Out dates both by several centuries.
  16. You stole everything that is ' unique ' to your country.
  17. We didn't really steal Russe Crowe. He has an Australian accent, grew up in Sydney and owned a Australia rugby team. Kind of like Napoleon, his family was Italian but he was more than French. Did steal Split Enz though for some reason. THEN why is my mate marrying a KIWI woman? Point to Spike, game set match.
  18. I'm surprised the Australian government kept them off our shores for that long.
  19. I've been there before a few times, and I'm quite aware it's awful. Ask Dion for the full story.
  20. I'm hopefully going into a vagina, coitus style. Pardon my English. Consensual too.
