true story....

back in 1997, I used to go out to the Toronto bars with a bunch of guys from Buffalo, and meet up with friends from Toronto (many being Italian). This was about the time that the movie "Donny Brasco" was out, so everyone and their brother used to say "forgetaboutit"

the Toronto boys had a hell of a time trying to say it

it would ALWAYS come out "forgetaBOOTit":D

it was some funny shit, because they could never say it right

damn Canadians !!

    ahahahha reminds me of Gino Genesio's famous line:

    MIO BELLO ITALIA

    even a Sudanese would know that sentence is gramatically incorrect...
    when I told him its "MIA BELLA ITALIA" he laughed at me and said "But I'm a guy dodo so its BELLO ITALIA"
    I had inform the "BIG ITALIAN" that its the subject that counts not the person..
    hence MIA BELLA

    Just tell them it's a soccer club that was exterminated in Germany, routed out of Eastern Europe and forced to play their home matches in Palestine, where the fans really want them to leave, preferably in pine boxes.
    Good call. However, most of these same people will be just as perplexed after hearing this explanation, so trying to reason with them in terms of world history is not necessarily a suitable option either.

    Well done, Andy. That pretty much nails things out West here as well.
    Thanks, Greg, and it's a damn shame we have to deal with all these Manure supporters. They might not be hurting anybody, however they are pretty friggin annoying.

    Well, I just have three exams to complete this coming week and I am finally finished with this semester of absolute hell. I submitted my final meteorology project just a few minutes ago which took about 10 hours to complete, and the highlight of this weekend will be taking a short break from studying calculus and physics to watch the Red Wings game and Juventus match respectively. So only for another five days will Andy be disregarding his internet profession of Juventuz moderation.

    And if you are weather freak such as myself, you might find this website by my university rather interesting. You have got to love surface analyses and AVN 4-Panel Progs.

    Thanks, my man.

    Burke will be giving me the usual summertime routine call of "Skype it up yo" and "dude lets get wasted" within a few days. There is not much better than Skyping it up yo and getting wasted after a terribly long 18 credit semester. :pint:

    17. WHO does Paul (Shadowfax) probably look like most? Clive Owen, Daniel Craig, Simon Powell from American Idol or the guy that played Benny Hill??
    I always pictured him as rake-thin for some reason. I'll go with Clive Owen.

    18. You are in the following situations..(When I refer to WHO I mean members of Juventuz.com only):

    29. Finally, what has led to the supposed decline of Juventuz.com??

    a. The Sale of Juventuz
    b. The Nick against the World thread.
    c. The likes of Gino Genesio and his merry bunch in the match threads?
    d. (ADD YOUR OWN)

    Anyone who's been here a long time remembers great posters who've sadly left or gotten much less active. Some of it is nostalgia for old friends, some of it was a decline in the strictness of moderation in the last year or so of Martin's reign. Mostly though, it's my fault, and yours. Post less, think more, dumbasses.

    So, uh, what do you guys think..

    What will stop first? The world spinning or this thread? ;)
    It might only be stored as electrons in Silicon, but even electrons have mass. If it keeps going at this rate, the thread will gather enough mass to spin the earth off its axis. So, the answer is that both will stop at the same time, when the earth hurtles into the sun.
