Yeah, but as a Geordie, you probably fail a lot.

I liked that show. My younger brother liked it alot. He downladed a bunch o episodes last week that I've been meaning to watch with him.

It, Rocko's Modern Life, and Ren and Stimpy were all very good. Rocko being my favorite.
I'm so punk, I don't even take my leather jacket off when it catches fire. Which it does frequently, because of how fucking punk I am.

Rocko's Modern Life was a slice of brilliance (the others were good too). I saw a few episodes a couple years ago and it actually held up rather well. I'd love to pick up a DVD set or something.

That's the shitty thing. It hasn't gotten an official release yet.

My brothers and I still quote it all the time despite having not seen it for around 7 years. ( I wonder how badly we've mutated the lines by now.)

The sound of nail clippers drives me up the wall. This is why I will never stop biting my nails.

I took a DJ-ing class a few years ago with this kid who bit his nails back to the cuticle. It was kinda gross.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Happened by accident a few times, but christ, never on purpose.

(In all seriousness this time) Or just when people say "lol" in general.
