glock wins - axl is one fucked up unit..

3 lead guitarists,
1 bass player,
one drummer,
3 pianists... (including axl)

they dont have that bigger sound... (they aint tool or nothing) they could have easily got away with 2or 3 less members...

i was amused, not loving it, but like watching arnies 'running man'

very amused..

I love that movie. One of my faves.

dear anyone,

is it just me or is AM scarily quiet for the last week or so?

cant say ive noticed, but ive been pretty busy at work

 

couldnt have been any quieter than when 80% of AM were in bali a couple weeks back, surely

Don't worry Thresh, I'm always here.

Khem, Do you have any Adelaide Massive shirts left? Looks dope when Im up in Darwin.....

Merry xmas & all that guffffffffff

happy holidays chief!

tees are printed on demand, just hit up http://www.zazzle.com/adelaidemassive/ and place your order!

Randomly will that site print my logo on a shirt?

yeah, not really random though. i have uploaded a few designs there and created a store. you place an order, they print it. eliminates the need for me to outlay a bunch of money on a run of tee shirts people may or may not buy, and gives people the option to select from a number of different design/color options.

DOPE! Power Lifting Adelaide Just got T-shirts

hey Khem

"cant beat the system go with the flow, cant beat the system go with the flow, cant beat the system go with the flow, cant beat the system go with the flow"

But what if you want to beat the system?

you cant beat the system

go with the flow

Damn it, Oh well helpful as always! Cheers Khem

Dear Khem

How come something imported into NZ costs the same as it does in Australia?

For example a pair of Cons cost NZ$90. Same pair in Australia would also cost A$90.

How does that work?

The Australian dollar is, and always has been, stronger than the NZ dollar.

Furthermore Australia has a bigger population so demand would be higer in general, Australia has a lower GST rate, Australia has lower inflation, Australia has lower wage overheads, and in general, it would be cheaper to ship to Australia than NZ.

So why, effectively, are Australian's paying more?

maybe the shipping route is slightly shorter to nz, ie they drop the nz stuff off on the way to aus

Dearest Panties/Massive,

I went to the doc today to get some valium for my long plane ride, and he gave me Serapax instead. Is it essentially the same stuff/effect/floating-on-a-cloud-awesomeness or should I try and make a trip to a dodgier doctor?

regards,

Fidgety

Should be alright?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxazepam

Serapax is awesome, yes quite floaty.

Standard benzo fun. Enjoy.

your words mean more to me than anyone else's   

You need to go to my doctor. He recommends two glasses of red wine and valium. "It's the effect you're looking for" he said.

cerapax are killa, 30mg. way cooler than valium, someone could be chewing your arm off and you would remain unphased.

Woh cale's back!

Oh kheeem... Do we still have that vg roots thread? Mikey hadn't heard of him and I wanted to show him the lols

The bans!

There's one of shadowline's threads in the Hall Of Fame/Shame section. Not sure if it's the one you're thinking of but there's bound to be some mention of VG Roots in there.

Yo khem how come QLD is getting so owned by the flying spaghetti monster (or whatever god you believe in)?

delayed punishment for pauline hanson i assume

Nothing to do with them stealing our water?

ooh possibly...

"oh you want some water eh? here is some goddamn water!"

*cue floods and cyclones*

Yeah, what I was thinking!

Wtf?

Dear Khem

The bees are the size of a grape here in NZ, and their hives must be gigantic... so why is honey so damn expensive here??

you ever tried stealing honey from a hive of giant bees? clearly they need to pay danger money to the guys who get the honey.

 

Dear Khem

Why is the Beer Thread in Random banter, but the Wine Thread in Entertainment?

Is beer not entertaining?

depends on who drinks it and how drunk they get i guess



the threads were started by different people at different times and landed in different parts of the forum

The Beer thread was originally started by Leezee as he was offering an exchange of beer for a pressure cooker. People just ran with it and turned it into a thread about the beers they like...

Sounds like the admins/mods need to lift their game.

Sounds like I need to start charging you per post.

10 cents per post seems OK. If I back charge you owe me over $850. Where do I send the invoice?

 

I'll click on some Google Ads for you OK?

In that case it should be in Technical and Classifieds if anything

Surely a misplaced thread on AM is one of the signs of the apocalypse?

Dear Kh3m: If it doesn't get moved, how long before horses begin to eat each other?


Here is a picture of another portent:

i think we still have a little while to wait before horse cannibalisation commences. probably between now and december 2012, since that is when the world is meant to turn bat shit insane, although given the increased amounts of natural disasters and egypt setting the trend for other countries to start their own facebook revolutions, it might even happen as early as this year.

hmm..

a bit of a conservative estimate i'd say, especially with events like these becoming commonplace:

Awesome!

Pigeons suck.

I hope Mr Percival didn't get sick.

Dearest Khem(of-large).

A month or two ago in one of these threads Anzac posted a link to a good time wasting online game where you fly paper planes. I played it at the time and forgot to save the link in my faves. I'm now looking for it cos it was good fun.

Any idea on the game (or the initial thread?). Doesn't appear to be the thread on 'Flash Games'. The first five or so things I clicked on after searching in Google went to a much lamer paper plane game.

Cheers 

at work at the moment, but you can quickly scan thru all of anzac's posts here

Thanks AM Team!

Hello Friday afternoon! 

Is Imageshack doing some kind of hotlinking crackdown of late?

I've noticed at least half of the regular posters on here now have a "frog in an icecube" error pic as their avatar now.

dear khem/am,

has anyone had a water damaged iphone 3 repaired with digimob??

just wondering how much it cost..

they wont even give me a rough quote on what the most expensive fix would cost... cant see the point in waiting a week for a quote  to be told itll be $500 or something.

dont think it would be too bad, just got drenched in my pocket from working in the rain today, wasnt dropped in the pool or anything...

digimob have only popped up recently, so i havent heard any feedback from them yet. they do free quotes and have a 24hr turnaround time, but im sure that wouldnt be cheap.

had a quick look online for pricing but couldnt find much

might be worth contacting

http://www.fixpod.com.au/index.php


also, http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/1358029 says

Digimob have been around for years haven't they?

Or do you mean only recently started doing Iphone repairs?

i have only started hearing about them recently as they started advertising on tv. never heard of them prior to that.

Nah they've been around for absolutely years mate, website references 2004 which sounds about right

fair one... never heard of them until recently. weird considering i work in mobile, but we refer everyone to our stores anyway. thought i would have at least heard someone talk about them before... ahh well...

My boss went to a Telstra shop a while back trying to drop his phone off for repair and he was told it'd be quicker/cheaper/easier at DigiMob.

Its also owned by one of my Board Members at the Australia Day Council (and Adelaide City Councillor) http://www.linkedin.com/pub/houssam-abiad/4/957/ab7

yep

So does that mean there's a danger (again) that more people come here?

doubt it, it died ages ago and even in its final days (months) there was noone on there really. we would only be in danger of a massive influx if facebook closed down.

Khembo, did you know that Adelaide Clubber have called it a day?

http://adelaideclubber.com.au/

 LMAO what a bitchy sign off.

 Not that I have been on there in years, but I do miss the glory days of RA. There was some funny shit on there, and I met heaps of cool people through that site/partying.

LMAO what a bitchy sign off.

Seems to imply they were trying to be more than just a forum...

LMAO what a bitchy sign off.

Damn those unhelpful promoters

I'm thinking of closing AM as well. Same reason! Promoters are so unhelpful IMO.

LMAO what a bitchy sign off.

  awesome.  I love the blame game 'my idea didnt work because no one used it' ha ha

Please Explain?

Wasn't srs

LMAO what a bitchy sign off.

Yeah lol.

Plus there was a typo!

So is AM the most active electronic-music-related-scene ( ) forum in Adelaide now?

ITM has a section for adelaide which is fairly quiet.

the only other forum i can think of off the top of my head is http://www.trancesa.com which is currently closed for maintenance by the looks of things.

anthems.com.au just redirects to their facebook page now.

spraci has an adelaide section, but it looks more like a musicians wanted board.

can anyone think of any others?

Have to admit there isnt much going on here on AM at the moment. Has Noddy given up? He was a major source of entertainment. Sorry Oli. You just dont cut it 

Sorry Oli. You just dont cut it 

Speak for yourself!

 

I miss RA too, at one point it was absolutely thriving and the meetups, people on there and general mentalness was a good thing. Of course you got a massive amount of wingnuts too.

AM, you're all I have right now... And twitter and facebook.
And real life.

Real life is reserved for those with no creativity.
AM's where its at

I never posted on RA but I did find myself at one or two of the meet-ups. They got pretty damn messy for daytime/afternoon affairs lol.

Well when there were certain people handing out various mind altering substances mixed with vodka, it was bound to happen. If I remember rightly, there was more than one broken bone at those events.
