Umm... How about we go with "It was me, but it was really old and I am not really that pretty, but I am extremely photogenic"?
I by the way updated it to a more current one.
Ooh. I totally love that gif. I feel warmly welcomed. Thank you.
Welcome.
What comes to making gifs by the way, I have Windows 7 so if you know any easy programmes for making gifs for that, I am all ears. I am a total noob, but I would love to try to make those.
The feeling is mutual.
That is the right attitude my dear.
I also need to ask, that is there any particular reason why you have Finnish word "Soturi" (warrior) in your name in here?
Nah, after I am done talking with them, they will be rushing here.
Ask and you shall receive
Where do you live: Finland, I lived three months in Liverpool, UK though
Where are you from: Well, from Finland, I am Finnish after all
Occupation: This doesn't sound particularly wild, but I have been working the last five years in different museums... I am also a student - all I need is the damn graduation thesis to get my master's degree (Santa has abandoned me, I have been wishing it the last three Christmas)
University: Tampere
Favourite Sport: Swimming and biking
Political party of choice: The good, the bad and the ugly
Favourite thing on the box: This is very hard task since it changes ridiculously often. But just now I think I would go with "The Wire"
Favourite crisp flavour: From the Finnish selection - sour cream and dill and from the English ones - Sea salt and vinegar
Favourite biscuit: Kaneliässät (very cinnamony cookies)
Favourite Pokemon POST 151: Slowpoke
Beano or Dandy: I have absolute no idea what these are, but I will always go for Dandy, if it is an option
I know the feeling.
I am right now totally pissed that when I was actually in UK, I didn't even realize I could meet up with you darlings. Seriously. I am an idiot.
Hahahha, ok we have a deal. I will seriously bring those to the next (and first) meetup I will be able to join.
Might take some time though. Why you didn't inform me about them when I was in there?

Outside of world 7, I'm two levels away from finishing NSMB!!
Ordered Yoshi's Island and SM64 for some more sexy handheld gaming.
Just watched all of Season 1 of the Newsroom, and now onto Luther S3! Dat Elba.
Did you visit the Toxteth area of Liverpool whilst you were there? It's especially lovely on an overcast Tuesday afternoon.

I think I wandered around in that general area, but I didn't know it was called Toxteth. I needed to search and check the name from map since I was quite often just walking around without any particular understanding where I am exactly.
Hmmm... Potent...
Oh and what comes to accents I totally love them! Even though my somewhat posh friends were warning me that they so will spank my ass if they notice even a slight influence of Scouse. I found it absolutely adorable when people were asking am I from Scotland, Ireland, South Africa, Sussex or perhaps Australia. According to rumours my English is quite an odd mix of different accents.

Yeah Toxteth isn't an area you wander around. Batman wouldn't chance going in there at times.
When did you last go? 1987?
2007?
Soccer? SOCCER? The fuck.

Woah now there, let's not blow this out of proportion ninj!
He's not as bad as pancho, he's a right cunt
Doing some googling about massive attack and it turns out one of the singers is a kiddy fiddler. I was enjoying the music and wish I never started reading up on the band. If only I went to sleep at 12.
And yo tash association football sucks none the less lol I dont follow it at all.

2001 or so for my uncles wedding. It was a rough council estate type area. it blows my mind that even a scouse huffing carries an accent.

bitch I'm taking calls.
Who really cares what an artist does in their personal time? I mean, sexually molesting children is a very bad thing...but I don't really associate works of art with those kinds of actions.
Speaking of association, why is molestation a once per page topic around here? Haven't seen so much pedo talk since Chris Hanson was popular. Stop treading Murdoch-controlled media, people.

it keeps happening
Scouse accent is seriously awesome.
I was walking all around the place. Later on I was informed that not all of the places I had been in were particularly safe at certain times of a day. But then again I didn't not even once feel threathened during my whole time in UK.
It does. Slowpoke is one of my dearest friends and it comes to say hi to me on regular basis.

I can't believe you guys all have a favourite Pokemon. Like, most people on GAF seem to know all about those little guys. How does something like that occur?
The forum avy request the other day, someone posted a pic with like a hundred or so of the little bastards, and asked for one by name. Sure enough, five minutes later, Filler and Toppot had both made him one, no questions asked.
I just never got into that whole thing, if it's not pikachu I'm lost. Maybe jigglypuff (little pink dude) and chizard (a little orange lizard)?
musha and ninja for the sexual tension that's often needed

I was picking a name for my character in city of heroes, so just picked the word for warrior from my 2 favourite languages, Japanese and Finnish. I've used it as my online personae ever since.
"I'm a Gaffer...Get me out of here!"
Who I'd put in? Smokey, Mike, KP, Chinner, donkey and Meadows.
throw in suariyu and you have a love triangle going onthere
Tash, Kent, Musha, Chinner, Suariyu, Ninja, Sadetar, Mike, Donkey, BGBW.
I would then provide them with lots of alcohol and an empty bottle to play spin the bottle...
Edit: I think Mike and Tash would make out...
It was a false accusation that was later withdrawn.
Tash could do what he wants but no kissing on the mouth.
Can I just pick Meadows 9 times? Because I want that plus Kentpaul.

Kent would sort out pestering BB for booze, Tash would be the highly strung clown blowing up randomly, Chinner would be the quiet reserved dude with the acid tongue, Suairyu would perform a similar role but with more of a spring in his step, Mike would be the amiable dude with the unrequited crush on one of the housemates, Donkey would be the one mooching about singing and dancing like a loon, BGBW would be the understated guy who survives until the last week.
Musha and Sadetar would spend all day in the jacuzzi.
I'd be watching from behind a curtain in the camera run...
Edit: Kent, what 8bit said, Robert Del Naja isn't a kiddy fiddler. It damn near drove him over the edge though, fucking horrible accusation.
drooling... and stuffs ...
I have the hangover from hell this morning, normally they are delayed and hit me during the day but this morning is really really bad :/
Still in hospital after a fatal blow to the head? I don't see much chance of recovery :/
Chinner, this is the cliquiest conversation we've ever had in here - I'd like to point out that I didn't start it
It's a pretty cool clique.
Jordan - what was last night? Midweek hangover...you disgust me!

i'm being ironic. i'm pointing out of the social structures in which we divide and separate ourselves to create false empowerment to create a comforting reality for us to reside while weakening the positions of others outside of that divide - im trying to make us more self-aware and become a better community for it.

Nothing special, just sort of downing my sorrows and shit. I know it's not helping anything but it seemed like a good idea at the time. I definitely drank far too much vodka though...

LOL that seems highly accurate in comparison to what's playing in my mind. Can we throw in noffles or JT as a wild card in the middle of the season? :O
N-E-waaaaay, went to the Red Hot Buffet in Nottingham last night and was rather impressed. Much better than the one in Manchester and lots of yummy yummy sushi!
Fair enough. Would there be a WiiU to keep people occupied?
Save the drinking for Saturday and donkey show will take you out on the pull.
That's because nobody really knows or cares what a Pokemon is, much less where it falls in the grand scheme of Pokemonery. I take it as a sign that we have a good bunch in here.

Get your ass to Tropiero. I can't overstate just how much fresh meat they'll allow you to eat before politely asking you to put your trousers back on. It's fucking incredible.

It's just one of those things where I genuinely don't understand the appeal. You know, to adults, I get that kids would get a kick out of cutesy little creatures that come out of these balls and fight each other.

Pokemon was my life from like year 3 onwards in primary school. I remember it 'arriving' on these shores in like 98/99. The cards, the anime, the games. Rose tinted glasses aside, it was amazing.
Hahaha. Always hope a bathroom has a lockable door if Kent is around.
You're definitely not wrong, I remember going to creche when I was really young and the games were all we did, we used to trade and battle and obviously me being the geek that I am all those years ago, I was bitching at it and always won... That and the fact I had like level 50 pokémons when everybody else had like level 10!
Never got into the cards, didn't really understand it, but collected them nonetheless

What!?! How many are there? I thought there was like 100 or something.To be fair, that question was just a dig at most people who go into Pokémon threads just to say the first 151 are the best.
But for the uninformed, I gave the correct answer on page one:
Yeah, me too.
I loved anime as a kid, but that was because it was all boobs and blood, and all "adult" and stuff.

I've been to a couple similar ones in the states and have totally pigged the fuck out on the meat. Just keep it coming! I think there's one in Sheffield, but I'll have to go without the lass since she's a veggie... unless they have some unlimited veggie skewers as well. xD
