That settles it, I'm buying Choc tomorrow.



Time to get Tim-Tams a new GAF account.

[HolyCheck]

You know me. That's the main thing.

But you, clearly not I. what with my "job" and all.

;__; You never told me the truth! How was I to know facebook is full of lies.

 

[Dryk]

Is this one of those things that's deceptively hard to do? Is it like trying to swallow a teaspoon of powdered cinnamon?

Yes it is. In my experience you usually realise that you've made a mistake about halfway through the second one as your mouth dries out.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Title is nothing but disappointment. Stuck with it for the next 5 years...

Wouldn't you die if you did that? Or is that nutmeg. I forget.


Edit: nutmeg. 2-3 teaspoons. right.


Pretty sure there's no lethal dose of tim tams.

 

[Deeku]

do you guys fridge tim tams? i think they taste better fridged!

 

[jambo]

I normally prefer my chocolate to be in the fridge. Just something about the coldness that adds to the experience.

 

[Dryk]

I prefer my chocolate to be room temperature

 

[Lucian Cat]

I'll eat it regardless of temperature. Unless it's molten or something.

 

[N0VAM0D]

suhh

Like removing the flavour?

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

Like removing the flavour?

Yeah seriously. Super cold chocolate is bleh.

 

[Cerity]

Cold chocolate reminds me of those dog chocolates that you only really get familiar with when you're drunk.

 

[ClivePwned]

I prefer chocolate to be edible. As in, not a puddle that leaves you heads looking like you had an unfortunate nappy change, but not so rock hard in the fridge that it chips your teeth when you bite it.

confession time: despite liking biscuits, wafers, cookies and chocolate, I've never liked a Tim-Tam (I might have tried one once).

 

[r1chard]

I usually do, unless they're supposed to have gooey insides.

 

[FormallyMegadrive]

I'm always top 20 lol.

also I watched Princess Mononoke last night. What a movie, loved it. Gonna watch Grave of the Fireflies next.

 

[Planet_JASE]

Only do it if you're in a good mood but don't want to be.

see that actually seems hard to do, 3 timtams....
fuck it im going to coles
ill report back soon

Yeah. I always keep my chocolate things in tne fridge, be they actual chocolate or chocolate biscuits.

 

[reptilescorpio]

So I'm thinking of buying a house. It looks good and cheap. My builder says it's sweet. My wife likes it. Advice?

Buy it!

I should watch Princess Mononoke. I haven't before.

On Sunday, I showed Arrietty to my mum, as she wanted to watch a movie. She liked it a lot. The next day, I took a risk with Spirited Away (risky because of surreal elements I thought she would dislike) and she liked it but not as much. Maybe next weekend I could risk something so different as Grave of the Fireflies. But I also have Porco Rosso...

We already watched Ponyo, Howl's Moving Castle and My Neighbour Totoro a few years ago.

 

[Yrael]

Gonna watch Grave of the Fireflies next.

I still can't watch that movie without getting teary-eyed.

 

[dity]

Currently transitioning between an Internode and a Telstra plan now, so I'm using a 4GX dongle. And wow, this must be what NBN is like.

It's a beautiful movie with a simple message. I watched with the English dub and it was good.

Yeah I've heard this. Maybe I'll watch Howls or Totoro first. The only Ghibli movie I've seen previously was Spirited Away.



For those that watch Anime, are there any movies in the vein of Perfect Blue or Wicked City that are must sees with a serviceable dub? I liked Perfect Blue more than Wicked City but I loved the craziness of WC.

 

[BananaArnie]

nope i can eat 3 tim tams in a minute
hardest part was not being able to savor them.
such a waste

Try Paprika, should be exactly what you're looking for.

On another note, go for Redline as something different. Spectacular movie.

Both have good dubs.

I think I actually own Paprika on bluray. I got it for like $5 when the local Kmart closed. I'll have to give it a watch!

Yeah it's one of those weird Sony anime releases so it never seems to go for a lot. I got it for cheap some time ago too, has like 7 language tracks and 10 subtitle tracks on it. Incredible for a western release.

 

[jambo]

Yeah seriously. Super cold chocolate is bleh.

Our fridges have never been super cold, so it isn't that much of a difference.

Cold smarties with ice cream, mmmm.

I knew it. No way that would be difficult.

 

[Dead Man]

New thread looks nice, I'll try not to mess the place up too bad.

Also, l tried the new BBQ shapes. Not impressed.

 

[The Giant]

do you guys fridge tim tams? i think they taste better fridged!

I like to put Lamingtons in the freezer. So much nicer to eat it frozen.

 

[AnkhWeasel]

I looked at that top 50, and damn people, what the hell?

Spoiler

I am definitely in the top 50 of people in the Steam chat.

 

[Stackboy]

My workplace offered me a free flu shot, which I got yesterday. I think it knocked me around a bit. Hopefully it combats sickness for the winter.

Wait wait wait they've changed the only shapes I actually eat? Noooooooo

 

[Dead Man]

Cold chocolate is best chocolate. It warms up quickly anyway, unless you live in Tas.

Indeed they have. They have gone from being one of the greatest snacks of all time to something I have no interest in consuming ever again. So bloody sweet now, like American BBQ flavour.

Waaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh ;__;

The biscuit is different too.

 

[Rezbit]

Apparently they now mix flavour in the biscuit as opposed to having that goodness sprinkled all over? Sounds awful, will not buy.

Sad when that kind of thing happens. Not sure if thats worse than just being taken off the market like what happened to my favourite shape style biscuits.

Of course now stuck on a low carb diet I can't really have any biscuits

 

[dity]

As long as they didn't fuck with pizza flavour...

 

[Dead Man]

They are. All the boxes at my local were labelled with 'new and improved coming soon' or something like that.

That sucks, on both.

I just don't understand why they have done it. Not like they were unpopular or something.

 

[dity]

Shapes are on my shit list of things to not shit out anymore.

 

[Fredescu]

I think we know where Tak Fuji went after leaving Konami:

I had the extreme mega cheese recently and I have to say they were better than the name suggested.

you could try the other two films he directed around the same time - ninja scroll and Demon City Shinjuku , there are many other good films out there that are nothing like those mentioned but fill all other requirements, eg summer wars

also Wonderful_Days or sky blue depending on what cut and dub of the film you are watching is a really good Korean film directed all the way back in 2003 that rivals films from 2013/14 in the animation department just a shame we didn't get more from that director before he passed away


RE BBQ shapes - this is why they always taste like crap now ? noticed that a few years ago tho recently iv picked up a few packets were like have the bag is filled with that red dust and like wise missing half the biscuts lol so some sort of manufacturing problem

having said that smiths chips haven't been good for a long time.

 

[jambo]

I'm going in!
