Pirate themed christmas celebrations for the event? Sounds good to me!

Shes crazy... she can get away with that any time!

Me... err, I'm just weird, so I can get away with that about half as often as her? [lol]

you should have a thread during the festival of winter nights [yes]

hey is this about right?

So...that video TEASED us. A guy was holding a thing of Tim Tams, but did they show us the Tim Tam slam or mention how amazing they are? I think not.

Also, I've not had vegamite straight, but I've had vegamite chips from the British shop near me...And they tasted like pot roast. I HAVE had marmite thanks to a Kiwi ex-boyfriend of mine....*makes a face* and I was not impressed. My boyfriend was fine though...We bonded over rugby and his amazing ginger hawk.

Drop Bear 12-04-2014 07:38 AM

Hrm, this is true Linnypoo. It will depend what I'm working though. I think I've basically got Xmas/boxing day off, and New Years off, and thats about it. Though looking at the calendar and going off talks with management, I think we get the friday after new years off too, so that means I'd be working 2x 3 day weeks over xmas and new years, mon-wed, with 4 days off each week! I guess I could run a thread in there somewhere possibly?

Also, pretty close. Though to me:
- Milo is NOTHING like a health food or dog food. Imagine Ovaltine or nesquick (chocolate flavours) but much less finely ground/powdered. You then mix it at roughly 3 spoon fulls (often WAAAAY more!) and stir into the milk, which because its less finely ground, doesnt mix completely like the afore mentioned brands, and gives you this foamy/chocolatey head on top like beer... but with milk... and chocolate. Anyways, its a drink you sort of eat a little bit of first, and has a slight hint of chocolate to it after.
- The Chickos are the equivalent of Dr Pepper Vs Coke for flavouring of chocolate. If you expect strong chocolate flavour, you'll be disappointed. If you expect that sort of very light taste of chocolate flavour, you may get close to the experience possibly.
- The chicken chips taste NOTHING like chicken at all.
- Shapes is the brand, and each flavour of their snack is a different shaped cracker type thing with flavouring. The BBQ ones taste nothing like BBQ, theyre more like salsa or something, and the pizza is mostly just tomato paste sorta flavour. That said, they're still delicious for some reason!
- And the winner is Vegemite, that is SPOT ON! But only because you guys dont eat it properly! You get the tiniest amount and add it to bread/toast or something like that. You spread it incredibly thinly on the food and its a super salty and tangy snack! If you want, I'll make a video on how to PROPERLY eat vegemite?

Bearzy, I think like the Thunder Birds, its a GO!

Woodster, youre right, I was waiting for the timtams to be shown, but they werent! LET DOWN! those things are the fucking TITS man, TITS! Marmite is also the bastard cousin to Vegemite too by the by! Also... poor ginger c**t! [lol]

Bearzy 12-04-2014 08:30 PM

Excellent!

Linnea 12-05-2014 01:28 AM

I seriously almost ordered a 6 pack of Tim Tam online cause they're not available in the states any more...... *shakes fist at the sky* Why must you torment me?! I'll probably cave and buy them online by the end of winter....

Whaaaaa? Poor ginger c**t nothing! That boy was lucky. Lucky I tell yah! [illgetu][illgetu] And I called him fire crotch, ginger bush, ginger balls....all those lovely names. Who needs stupid pet names when your line can be, "Hey Ginger Balls! How's it hangin?" [afrod_harhar]

Drop Bear 12-05-2014 09:38 PM

[lol] Woody you crack me up!

Linnea, I will try to do that this weekend, possibly even today.

Linnea 12-05-2014 10:13 PM

i'mma hold you to that, chump suckah!

Woodlandnymph 12-07-2014 05:48 PM

I wanna watch that video! ;) Then again...I'll see you eating Tim Tams and I'll cry a little.

Ling 12-09-2014 11:17 AM

The avatars in this thread are soooo pretty.....*feels somewhat inferior*

Bearzy 12-09-2014 10:27 PM

You look awesome though Ling! You have this mad pirate look going on.

sjacklene 12-09-2014 11:05 PM

Arrrg ye mateys!

Drop Bear 12-10-2014 08:45 AM

I havent made that video yet. I will, keep reminding me too. But at the moment I'm in the middle of moving house, so I may be away for a few weeks before I can get this all sorted out and back online!

I hope everyone enjoys their breaks and spoils themselves, even just a little bit!

salvete 12-14-2014 01:34 AM


Thank you, I am certainly looking forward to the break!

Woodlandnymph 12-15-2014 05:27 AM

Good luck moving Droopy ol' pal!

Ling 12-15-2014 11:27 AM

Awww...thanks Bearzy [:)]

Curious about this video...

Bearzy 12-16-2014 08:23 AM

So am I, I think Droopy's chickened out.

Linnea 12-17-2014 03:45 AM

i think he did.

he's something that starts with 'p' and ends in an 'ussy' [:O]

salvete 12-18-2014 02:49 AM

*dances through the thread*

Bearzy 06-14-2015 12:24 PM

I felt a strong urge to return here just now when I took a quiz titled "how kiwi are you" and it told me I was a bloody Australian. I'm personally offended.

Ling 06-15-2015 10:12 AM

LOL...Bearzy.....you'll be 'right mate.

Nothing wrong with being Australian. [insane]

Woodlandnymph 06-15-2015 04:30 PM

I took a quiz like that and it told me I was Kiwi....maybe cause I love walking around in flip flops/barefoot.....and I played rugby and all that.

Bearzy 06-15-2015 10:28 PM

One of my best friends got the same as me. We don't understaaand.

Woodlandnymph 06-16-2015 01:25 AM

Those quizes are always a little bit silly.
