Support NeoGAF

I would like to get rid of these hideous author photos as screensavers...

I like them...

 

[codswallop]

I think I have an idea but what is a V cut?

It's the old style cut they used to do, instead of simply cutting the bread in half they'd cut a V-shape into the bread and remove a triangle-shaped section which they'd put back on top once the sub was loaded. I reckon it held stuff in better, though you might not have been able to cram in as much stuff.

Easier when eating a footlong that wasn't cut in half as well.

 

[Kritz]

You're a cool guy, dude

"Don't shit where you eat" or something like that.

 

[Fogz]

I have an ex-gf who used to work at Subway. She somehow left a knife in a sub.

........yeah

 

[reptilescorpio]

Of course. A nervous as hell 17 year old driving down a highway at 70+km/h probably isn't the best idea however.

What about us kids who live in the country on 100kmph roads?

Ooo NeoGaf shirts up ay? Shame theres no AusGAF ones.

Got Hungry Jacks for lunch, instantly regretted it.

I find they can be great when done right, sometimes better then McDonalds, but the cases of you getting properly made Hungry Jacks are 1 in a million, so every other time its soggy, sloppy and ugly.

While we are on the subject of driving tests. Got my Ps last month, had my L's for over two years by the time I got them. Got it first go too so was really glad.

Of course. A nervous as hell 17 year old driving down a highway at 70+km/h probably isn't the best idea however.

Highway driving was pretty much the only thing I did until I had to go for my P test. (only went for them last month, passed too on the first go). Though I did have my Ls since the year I was turning 18, so its been awhile really.

I have 130 hours logged, (probably about 100 actually done >>), with the majority of it on straight roads though. Done 6 cert'd lessons I guess?

The hours these days are rediclious and the longer hours will not make people better drivers. You only learn when you finally get your Ps- basiclly you learn when to not fuck up.

I got my license on my 17th birthday the first attempt. Like a boss.

Getting them first attempt the the way. (I go wtf when I hear about people failing more then 3+ times per each test- people like that shouldn't be able to drive).

Why does just bout everyone in malvern and caulfield own either a BMW or a merc, never seen so many in my life.

I also think it might be quicker and easier to walk the 30 minutes to the station instead of getting the bus. I do miss out on potential hot bus girls.

I'm sure my tiredness is coming from the fact I'm moving around again. 2.5k walk in the morning plus constantly on my feet lifting hp desktops and monitors all day long. Hurry up body and lose some weight!

How is more experience not going to help?!?!

I sometimes do a 30 min walk on the way home. I hate waiting and the bus I catch is always full of junkies and fucktards.

Too cold to do it in the morning, and now I finish late so it's too dark to walk home most days.

 

[Jintor]

Turns out after you eat healthy for like a month comfort food stops being comforting and just starts tasting weird.

4 shirts from NeoGAF will cost me just under $88 AUD including shipping...

Good thing I got paid today!

 

[trinest]

Theres only so much the current system of how the Ls works can teach you- and that can easily be done in 30 - 40 hours. After that there is nothing more the Ls can teach you, and vus pointless. The system is flawed, and they think it will be fixed by decreasing speed limits, putting in resting periods for the hours and upping the hours required until you can get your Ps. It wont fix a thing- those things are values which changed to higher ecrements will not effect any statistics they shove out to prove their right.

I would never pay that much for 4 shirts. Gah.

Then again I have 0 income so you know.

 

[FallbackPants]

I was in Subway about a fortnight ago and a guy was calling them jalapenos with a hard J when he was ordering, instead of halapenos.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwA3t_eQW14

Also, honey oat, chicken fillet, onion, lettuce, tomatoes, avocado and jalapenos with honey mustard sauce. I don't think i've even eaten a subway that isn't that since I first discovered it.

It's not about teaching, it's about experience behind the wheel!

I've paid almost that much for 1 shirt >_>

 

[Fredescu]

The thing is, all increasing the number of hours required does is increase the falsification of driving records.

 

[Salazar]

Shirt - yeah, but not much more.

Jackets - Oh my god, I'm too ashamed to say.

^^^^^ I laughed.

 

[rass]

Gabe over at Penny Arcade raves about "The Name of the Wind" which I have not read but it's on the list. Should scratch that fantasy itch.

EDIT: Oh wait, you wanted not-fantasy. Um, Crichton's Jurassic Park?

No meat?

What is this madness.

 

[jambo]

I sometimes get my subs without meat, if I want a lighter lunch.

Shirt - yeah, but not much more.

Jackets - Oh my god, I'm too ashamed to say.

I've bought some pretty expensive jackets and I'm going shopping for a coat tomorrow so that could be interesting. Parents are paying though, birthday present ^_^

 

[rass]

I don't know what to tell you man, I don't like meat.

 

[Bernbaum]

Southwest sauce or fuck off home.

 

[Neverender]

honey oat bread chicken fillet cucumber carrot onion thousand island dressing

swiss cheese

 

[Grassy]

Paul Newman's has a pretty good southwest sauce(probably the same one..), I could pour that shit in a glass and drink it.

 

[Bernbaum]

Fugazi are great. 'The Argument' is a very special album to me.

We're going to get along famously.

 

[AusQB]

I just bought $188 worth of shirts from American Apparel.

 

[Rezbit]

I know people who go to Subway and get every salad (excl. ones that cost extra) to get their "money's worth" lol.

That's a band I haven't heard in a long time. In fact I'd say I've barley listened to them since I first discovered Repeater. And now that I think about it I don't know if I have listened to much else (even though I would have discovered them well after The Argument came out.

 

[Ydahs]

So much food talk. Good thing I didn't come on early in the day, considering I was fasting...

I feel like Subway now

 

[AusQB]

Since we're talking about food, I'm just about to grab a chicken and feta pide.

I'll upload a pic later.

 

[Shaneus]

I just had sweet potato fries with sour cream.

 

[reptilescorpio]

Sweet chili and sour cream chips. So good. Also shit 3G service with optus. Will have to go in and complain tomorrow.

 

[Gazunta]

I'm feeling nostalgic now.

God that pide looks amazing.

On a completely unrelated note, what would AusGAF recommend on internet plans? I'm leaning towards TPG's $60 phone line and unlimited download bundle. It seems pretty damn solid (considering I'm paying $50 for 50GB at the moment)

Anything better out there?

 

[Grassy]

The Argument is pretty much perfect. Even now when I listen to it, it still sounds fresh and exciting and I don't think it will ever age.

I'm still waiting for a new Fugazi album. Chances are it may not happen, but if it does then I will be one happy motherfucker.

I am going with aanets adsl2+ plan with 250 gig plan for 50 bucks. Will enjoy the roomy download limit.

Oh man. Surface tension could have scratched a itch for me. Could have been a sleeper hit while everyone has been waiting for the next pikmin.

 

[jambo]

Internode Easy Broadband perhaps?

I just bought $188 worth of shirts from American Apparel.

And I thought I was bad!

I'm struggling to hit my 1TB limit these days, but 250gb still sounds so goddamn small! Movies on tap are fucking great, though.

Internode Naked. Because home phones are for chumps.
$60/month with no line rental on top. 150GB, and I'm currently getting about 840KB/s. Not sure how far I am from the exchange though.

 

[jambo]

600GB is a good fit, but Internode have already grandfathered the plan haha

iiNet's another option too, plus they have lots of unmetered content.

 

[Grassy]

I hooked my dad up with this plan a few months ago, and he loves it. More for the speed rather than the download limit I guess.

...it seemed that it got worse when I read from my post down... hmm so the sheer mention out of context is bad... :S Oops, sorry about that. I was at work... and the Internet there kept pooping for me to regularly get updated in this thread...

onTopic: I HAD KFC TOO, curse you all. But oh man, the Works burger = sex.
