'Take the piss out of your mates'

If you said that here you would get your butt handed back to ya. Except in California...the reaction would be much different I would presume :p :eek:

Jokes, jokes.
 
On the subject of British comedies I suggest, if you can find it anywhere, to give The Royle Family a watch.

Easily my most favourite comedy, hilarious.
 
Just got back from a night in town. A friend nearly got us involved in a fight at the end though which was a bit nerve-racking.

We were in Burger King having a meal to end the night and about to get taxis. I was with a few of my mates (2 guys, 3 girls), and these guys at another table started through chips at us. One of my mates decided to leave at that point (don't know whether he wanted to avoid confrontation, or didn't feel it was going to escalate, but he left), but my other (guy) mate started staring at them. He was still quite drunk at this point, but not as drunk as they were I suspect. They take offense at him staring, get into a verbal fight, but my friend doesn't want to back down. The girls and I were just telling him to sit back down, and when they got up I was trying to restrain him. Luckily some of the other people in BK saw what was going on and came and tried to intervene.
My mate got a burger thrown at him, and they threw their coke (drink) onto him, soaking his shirt and getting a couple of the girls too. They left at that point, hanging round outside, while we restrained my friend from going out and dealing with them. We had the support of everyone inside but still at the time it was quite an anxious few moments. The girls were scared shitless and frightened to go outside to their taxis. Needless to say, it was quite an interesting end to the night, and in the taxi home, my mate kept on going on about how he could've taken them and how he'd done nothing wrong.

I know some of you may say that we should have just taken them on, but there were three of them, in their mid-twenties, and my mate and I are both 18, and not the strongest people you'd find. We probably could have won with the support of the other guys in BK, but I didn't want to risk the police coming out, big brawl, etc.

Town can be quite interesting sometimes.

And now to bed at 5:10 in the morning :)
 
Hey Chewie did you feel the earthquake? It was around 4.30am this morning. 7.1 on the richter scale. The prick broke my cell phone! It was on the T.V and the earthquake made it fall off, but my problems are quite small compared with Christchurch.

Sorry 7.4 not 7.1
 
It was all good up here in Auckland, got my best nights sleep (11pm - 10am) in a while.
Feel for the Cantabrians down South, from the news that's coming out it sounded like a horrifying experience.
I've never been in any earthquake that I've felt, so I'm still yet to know what ones like.
 
Hey it's not funny! Half the screen is fuzzy like when you go to channel 100 on an old T.V and the other half is zoomed up like 500% so all I can read is Silent Mode :laugh

i have, i was studying in my room about 4 years ago and i felt everything shake it happened for about a minute or two and then stopped :D
 
Haven't felt any aftershocks yet.
It was really strange because my dog woke up before the quake and was acting really strange like she knew it was coming.

I've felt about 4 earthquakes in my life. All of them quite small obviously but they seemed to happen almost yearly when I was at primary school. I think Christchurch, Wellington and maybe Dunedin are on a fault line?
 
Well we nearly never get quakes up here. I didn't feel it at all but I knew it had happened because my friend was on facebook complaining that it was stopping him from sleeping lol

I've got quite a lot of friends who go to Christchurch uni, but most of them are in Auckland atm. They start on Monday though so I'm not sure how that's going to work.

But your phone broke just from falling off the tv...

I've dropped my phone on concrete from a metre and a bit a few times before and it's fine
 
Christchurch uni gets an extra weeks holiday so all my friends are happy. I'm happy because they get to stay up here for an extra week :)
 
What are they studying there?
It's a pretty random place to go if you're from Auckland.
Infact I don't know anyone who's going there next year.
