I was gonna say. In the likely event that these 3 black dudes are gonna T-bag you then make sure you dig your nails into their face.

so when they find your body in a shallow ditch, they can get forensics to find your killers

Well anyways i'm home now in comfort lol.
I've just noticed how much sports cars drop in value these days i saw a blue Mazda RX-8 at a 2nd hand dealer for £3500. I can see why this is £3500 the tax on it is pathetic.

I know someone who wants an rx-8, where is this

That is a bit harder, since that there are more Indians than whites in Britain. I guess Indians can stay and whites will have to GTFO of the clubhouse. :roll:

Your not getting rid of me that easily

Ah, so you are a native. Have you contacted any scientist to preserve your genes in case your kind disappear under the waves of Asians in Britain?

You expect me to give away my genes? If they want them they'll have to pay for them!

Are there any actual British people in this fucking clubhouse?

I'm Kiwi. So scratch another one off the list.

I am 'white' though, not that colour matters - I have a Kiwi friend who's parents are of Indian decent and she has the broadest Kiwi accent you can imagine. I also have a Maori friend who is as blond as a Scando.

The native Britons, Celts and people like that got driven away by the Saxons and Angles and then Normans and people like that, so Britain is polluted with foreigners since forever.

I agree but anyway i dont understand all this talk of race?
I enjoy my family history but i don't care about race.

Just treat it as mindless bumping. I (and some others) sometimes go overboard due to boredom, so sorry about that.

If your bored i could talk about my family history but idk if you would be interested in that.
If i remember correctly this isn't a real thread or something along those lines that's how you can spam away without getting into trouble.

Just installed the new Catalyst drivers while waiting for my pasty to heat up in the oven. No idea what the drivers improve? I didn't see a list or anything in the news post. Same old... same old... there's people moaning about new drivers.

Lets start a new topic then: Alcohol!

What do you usually drink, and what do you guys like?

I don't usually drink (alcohol is rather expensive to drink regularly if you ask me), but when I do, more often than not its cocktails and mixes rather than neat stuff. I prefer drinks which flow down my throat easily like Baileys, and I am not a good drinker. Will start to lose my senses after 2-5 units depending on how much food I have, and I have (unfortunately or fortunately) never passed out from drinking yet. I want to have a little collection of alcohol in my room for me to mix my own drinks, but as of now the price is too prohibitive, and I finish my alcohol faster than I can accumulate them :eek: (starting a collection of essentials like vodka, gin, Baileys, etc. costs almost £100, I am not willing to spend that much in a shot)

It's not a bad thing you don't drink often, I drink far too much imo though growing up in Britain where it is just the norm makes that seem ok. I tend to drink vodka mainly, though I may have to knock it on the head soon as i get stupid on it, just generally make a pratt of myself with certain ppl, females. Not by being a dick or aggressive just saying shit I really wish i wouldn't :shadedshu

I don't mind lager but it bloats me and regular lager/cider drinking aint no good for my inperfect physique :cry: hence the voddie, normally with diet coke.

Also it's not that expensive if you shop around and don't mind buying shops own brand, you can get a ltr of vodka for £10-£12, versions of baileys, gin etc that is a lot cheaper than the top brands.

Me and drink have had a long relationship though i feel something changing within me of late and i think it might be due to the fact that i am getting on for 30 and drinking both days over the weekend where I used to be fine to get up and do stuff the next day is starting to disappear and the idea of settling in with a bottle of wine (1 not 2 as per) and getting a relatively early night and still feeling somewhat fresh on a Saturday and Sunday morning seems rather appealing.

I drink most things, although mainly stay around beer. In social situations if I have a drink in my hand I will constantly drink it - so spirits tend to disappear too quickly and things get messy.

I like lager mostly, but do fancy a pint of real ale every now and then, and Guinness. I love good wine, but not for heavy consumption. Have developed a taste for Scotch while in this country too.

New Zealand has a very similar binge-drinking culture to this country.

Vodka used to be my demon-drink; it would send me over the edge into blackouts, vomit, and other idiotic behavior. I used to adore Tequila for a while until I had a bad night on it. Now it ruins me. On Saturday my mate bought pints with a shot of tequila in the bottom (was probably our 9th pint or so). We walked home afterwards but neither of us can't remember getting home. Madness.

Being in my 30s now, I don't drink as much as I used to. I probably peaked in my drinking capabilities in 2008 when I went through 14 steins in a day at Oktoberfest. Been downhill since then.
