Gargre???

[Virago]

Okay, another dumb site history question, but this one is bugging me.

Where did "gargre" come from?

Oh no. You've awakened the monster of Mr Hitcher's worst nightmares. It's like something from H P Lovecraft.

We don't talk about the circumstances that brought gargre into the lexicon. Suffice it to say that there was once a member called sk8r_boi, and he ...Nnnoooooo I can't go on, it's too horrid. The flashbacks, the wailing and shrieking , I can't stand it. Someone with stronger nerves than I must enlighten you.

Not another "scottish" thread? :eek5:

[Badcat]

this isn't "the scottish thread" - but it's close....

[Skunk]

Back in the mists of time, the early days of this site there was a young fella by the name of sk8r_boi...

No, I can't do it - the screams, the screams...

Ask Hitcher, please, just ask Hitcher...

Could someone please point me in the direction of the Scottish thread because by searching I cannot find it

[Ixion]

It doesn't show in teh "shortcuts" you have to navigate there the long way, as above

The Scottish Thread is "owned" by Zed. He can do the honours there.

As for the gargre? Indeed. We have the erstwhile sk8r_boi to thank for this gem, now a legitimate addition to the approved and authorised Kiwibiker lexicon. As too is "sprotsbike"...

[Sniper]

Thanks Ixion

And praking. I definately vote in favour of praking. You park a cage in a garage. You prak a sprotsbike in a gargre. It all makes sense.

[Sniper]

Thanks guys :)

[Coyote]

Ah, I have been enlightened. All has become clear now

[Biff]

I vote Hitcher to pen the Altermative KB Dictionhairy, An Intorduction for Noobs.

The Arse to Zed Guide?

[Sniper]

Sounds like a great title Hitcher

[vifferman]

Don't forget "communtering".
I'm also trying to get official recognition of Ixion's contribution: worngA.
As in: "I thought that was correct, but I am worngA".

[mstriumph]

time to up the medication? :drinkup:

Now then, Mr Hitcher, that's scarcely fair... I think there should be at least joint honours, don't you?

You should check that with Zed. His proprietorship is a matter of record...

And another famous entry for the lexicon is the crusier...

[Squiggles]

oooh, now i understand what it all means... and it just changed my life. :D

I totally agree! No one picked up on my use of "sprotsbikes" in another thread, I was really quite sad...

Philistines. I mean to say really. The ignorance of some people.

And what about Paul in NZs "jeaslously"?? We are still waiting for confirmation of exact meaning though.

[Biff]

Philistines.

Ahhh lovely country, especially the capital city Vanilla.

[inlinefour]

The Arse to Zed Guide?

Sounds about right Mr H. :rofl:

[El Dopa]

Don't forget 'ghey'.

[Ixion]

Ahhh lovely country, especially the capital city Vanilla.

Eh?? Vanilla ? The capital city of Philistia was Gaza. Other claimants ("capital" being a less specific term then) could have been Ashqelon, Ashdod, Ekron, and Gath. No Vanilla.

You have no soul. Next you'll be telling me that Scrotum isn't the capital of Equador...

[Biff]

You have no soul.

I know this one - is the capital of Currier isn't it?

[Ixion]

Nah, I sold it years ago. Sometimes wish I'd kept it, but then again, the bottom's fallen out of the market now. Wish I'd kept my Velo though.

[Sniper]

I was under the impression it was the capital of Assyria
