Shit… You of all people have no room to talk here… You’re from Australia… By definition alone you’re a stupid English outcast who does nothing but get in to bar fights and wrestle gators.

And since I’ve been to Syndney, I’m guessing you live in King’s Cross… Now where’s my new surfboard?

**Definition of Australian:** _proper noun_ Incompetent English ex-patriot, lacking in activities or pastimes other than brawling in alcohol-serving establishments, and engaging in duels with large, man-eating reptiles. _Also see WTF?_

It took you _more than two days_ to think of that comeback?

(And BTW, it’s best not to provoke people that spend all of their time getting into bar fights and wrestling _fucking crocodiles_! Not pansy-assed fucking alligators.) 😉

The Thaidog picture link is of disembowelled dog carcasses, and quite disturbing.

**Thaidog** do you crave attention so badly that you are willing to accept negative attention rather then none at all?

As a humble student of Kung Fu, I recommend it to everyone.

Even surfer dudes who burn their dogs and smoke fags with their 7 year old freinds.

Whose the moronic dick,  
who is a colossal failure with all the chicks?

You’re damn straight.

Add Theme to Shaft for full effect.

No… it took 2 days to consider reading the garbage you call a post… but now that I know you know the difference between alligators an crocodiles, I’ve found your posts are not only educational, but filled with fun hyperlinks! Thanks Desmostylus!

You must be Austailian for educated?

I merly care about shock value and post counts… Everything else is besides the point. I personally find it easier to up the posts with shocking bullshit that causes severe flaimming…

It’s really damn good fun. Not only that, it’s a great way to see if anyone at work is monitoring with out legal rights. Put all this together and I’ll crazy Ivan my way to the top of the bottom! Yes!

Please read carefully and _then_interpret… to him a fag would be me talking to _him_ and saying “Dave, you’re a fag.”

Who has no grammar/interpreting skills?  
Survey say:  
You, FAG!

And yes dumbass, I just called YOU a fag.

Of course being the dumbass you are I’m more than likely wasting my time even trying to explain it. I can use puppets if it helps you… ?
