Flashermac Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 << Nor can she even spell her own last name correctly. >> It's written more or less phonetically, which means the writer has heard it spoken correctly. Methinks the writer doth live in the Grace Hotel area ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
was_usvirgin Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 Methinks the writer doth live in the Grace Hotel area ... Flasher, there is a current ban on the term 'me thinks'. You must have missed the memo. Apparently the use of the term leads to discussion of hair styling, according to a post in the Biergarten thread.

Flashermac Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 How about "us guys" and "youse"??? p.s. I don't read the bar threads. If I feel like going to a bar, I hop in a cab and go. Why talk about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elef Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 Pokemon not so far away, I know you know, Potjaman Choosing Noi as nickname is interesting, maybe Grace Hotel is involved, as it's a typical normal nickname the inspiration may have been a BG. BTW, khunying Potjamans nickname is Aah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
