Ich schau kein Fernsehen mehr, obwohl ich nen 30 Zoll Grundig Röhrenfernseher hier neben mir habe... Rechner kostet zuviel Zeit

this may be a little simplistic, in reality, it has to do with the reunion of germany. the DDR sucked much liquiditations, that had been rebuilt after the War, away. we currently own the world bank about 3-6 TRILLION Euro,cool eh?

Eric Cartman is the cartoon character modeled after TheMailMan. TheMailMan will return.

Ah, South Park, hum. Well, I guess I am a failure as far as pop culture is concerned.

That's why I like this place so much. It is the only forum I am involved with, and the first place I have ever "talked" to others who float around on the ephermal of the internet. Never thought I would. My wife chuckles, says I "have cyber buddies." I guess she's right.

Is Eric Cartman the dude who got beat up by a girl?

Yep, Eric Cartman get's his ass whooped by a girl...hilarious episode.

I do gotta say this is a neat thread, definitely with a kickass purpose. I joined this place almost 3 years ago after lurking and reading tons of threads and posts, started overclocking and asking for help, been hooked ever since. I still learn a ton from this place and I hope only to give as much back to this place as I can...the only online community I'm as dedicated to for sure is right here, not even my clan's forum is visited as often (or nearly as entertaining). So thanks W1z for the creation, and thank you everyone else here, both old and new members for making this place worth coming to.

I'd rather drive Nürburgring. Open to the public much of the time, €22 for a single lap, and the price goes down per lap if you buy more than 1 at a time.

Unfortunately we are going to have to put up with the epic crap that MailMan spews out describing the pain, suffering and anguish that he was burdened with , upon his successful return from his ban.

Oh the humanity

Funny though that it happened in this thread with such a title. Hopefully he will not ask again.
