me too! looking now but bloody hell can I really be bothered. Then again it is raining outside and I have cleaning/shopping to do, so any excuse not to do it.

hahaha nice one. Thought it was time for a change of avatar and the dog looks really happy on this one.

Well once I get my microscope fixed I'll see if I can make out the dog's expression.

yeah, re-post the cringeys!

if anything I was way too nice and sane when I first posted on here. I've since hardened up and gone crazy, so it's all good.

k, the search is a bit wobbly so just had a quick look at threads. There was one I saw last night when I told Novo to take his head for a s++t, which was a bit strong, then these....

A whole thread full of it ...
http://britishexpats.com/forum/showthread.php?t=608334

This is one I probably should have kept to myself..."Canadas approach to policing is similar to its approach to seal hunting, short and bloody."

On Canadian nightlife...."you will never miss a party, as long as, a. the oilers (substitute relevant hockey team) are playing, or, b. you are willing to throw your car keys in a bowl. shame this bowl though will be some dodgy plastic affair used to store nachos in and will only contain a plethora of ford f150 keys."

I think this was me trying to be funny, in retrospect just comes off a bit sad as someone 'trying' to be funny....."festivals. you pay a kings shagging ransom to sit in a field get piss wet through and have some gypo sell you a partly warmed sawdust and chicken ball burger for $200. then once you seen some highly overrated crap band lip synch some rehashed shite tune from 30yrs ago, you have to negotiate a quagmire the likes of which would make indiana jones take a large one in his trousers.
i'd rather be home in bed asleep let me tell you."

Loads more I am sure, but not doing any more searching. Embarrassing.

Not cringe worthy but nutty and at times, unstable ones, ones that made you question why they'd of given him a warrant card and a gun but all were interesting and extremely enjoyable. ;) :thumbup:

wow, rae. You were awesome ;)

I'm sure that I've said stupid things. Too lazy to look, but I know I have.

I suppose that's one of the downsides of all this technology, that past conversations and thoughts don't just fade in the mists of time. Pity the young ones who have even all their teenage angst lurking in online places ready to make them cringe in due course. Of course the new generation doesn't give a four x about over-sharing etc so it probably doesn't matter that much anyway.

For me, the closest I've ever come to regretting posting something was when I should have sent a link to a particular site instead of typing out the quote in verbatim. Other than that, I haven't regretted any of my posts so far.

Fair enough, but you've hardly made any. ;)
