In tonights episode, Akzle and Autech analyse "the art of trolling" and ask "when is it ok to call someone a cunt?"
Its my first negative rep! Do the next 60 or so hurt less?

awwwwwwww, i popped ya red cherry.
How touching.
None of them hurt. This is internets, not irl.
It's always acceptable to call someone a cunt, it's all about context.
The art of trolling. 7 knots, with a stainless spoon, single circle hook, take a wide loop around the boil up and pull your lure across at an incident angle.
Let the quarry hook themselves, then tow them for a bit before putting the brakes on and hauling them in. Lift with the rod, dont use the reel as a winch.

7 knots is a tad fast for some of the bottom feeders on here...better to drop a lure and wait.

Why would you care that I cared? :D
My understanding of a good trolling is to wade into a debate stating an opinion (which is not necessary your own) on something which you know will wind people up, then sit back and enjoy the responses it generated, occasionally stoking the fire on one of fish that took the bait.

All true - except for the part about offering an opinion - trolling is just about winding people up ..

I had to google what that was. I can just imagine the kids huddled around the big old radio.
The good days, now days kids stare at their smart phones.

Yeah ... some of us are old enough to have huddled around the radio ..and remember Godzone before we got TV ...
I also remember when we got our first telephone - and our number at home only had four digits ... getting a telephone in the house was a big deal. My father cut a hole in the wall and built a small alcove for it ...
Now you kids wander around looking at the internet with hand-held devices ...

Fuck progress, lets go back to caves! I know my life would be a lot less stressful if all I had to worry about was a T-Rex biting off my head

Oh I dunno - I'd be pretty stressed if a T-Rex was trying to bite my head off ..

Instead of riding a Norton you could ride your neighbours missus though, just club her round the head n drag her off. Simple times!

But speaking of vhs. Anyone in akl can diagnose/calibrate/clean/repair vhs unit. My close friend and ally has one that's stopped.

Apparently we all begin life as female then us males slowly develop the good bits - you might be just running late in that department - patience is a virtue. :rolleyes:

Why do people make a dopey sounding chuckle when you tell them you have a Saab for sale.
It's a completely retarded response that I find irritating.
It's not like $1200 is a lot of money for a tidy car with abs & airbags, wof & 6 months reg.

...I think a 1200 dollar Saab would be fucking fantastic, I also have a penchant for Zundapps and other obscure shit...I often wonder why...not that Saabs are obscure, far from it...I met an affable Swede once...not of the human genus from Southland, either...
