The "What do you look like? Thread"

Touche. After this year I dunno what I'm gonna do in terms of moneys. xD Bye Centrelink...


Don't believe me? Google is your friend! 8D Really, really dark chocolate (like 90% cocoa, which is what I like to eat c:) is very good for your teeth. XD Unfortunate that you can't eat it though. D:

Oh nice. c: I've never settled an argument that way. xD I should though! Lol I love how fake tears is an actual pokemon move. Good stuff. xD No, I don't see the problem! They should just do it. Plus I don't know what the DMV is. xD YAAAS.

Nope. I have good teeth without the added side effect of death thank you.

It's a very useful technique and as long as you don't do it too often you'll be fine. Have you seen my profile picture, one of the moves in my moveset is fake tears. XD Oh see; a DMV is where people go to get anything driving related really. License, permit, license plates, etc. The lines are ridiculously long, everyone is grumpy, and it takes forever for things to get done. My dad's out of the country most of the time and my mom works all the time so no one can usually take me.

A yank? Did you just call me a Yankee? Oh ho ho. You did not just go there boy.

You are american therefore you are a yank. If you were british you would be a pom. If you were european, a wog. Such is life

[Noblejanobii]

Um, no. That's not how it works. A Yank or Yankee is a derogatory term that people BELOW the Mason-Dixon Line call people who live ABOVE said line. If anything I'm a Confederate. Get your derogatory terms straight and learn your geography.

[[Desolate Divine]]

In australia, that is the way it works. Not sure about in US, but here yank is slang for american, like pom is slang for the english. We have our own little slang language going down here. I mean, bangers and mash, for crying out loud. Different meaning here

[Suicune's Fire]

@Comatose Um yeah, Jacob. xD Didn't you know that? I never call Americans yanks. Maybe you do because you're a bogan. ;D Also a wog! Isn't that a derogatory term?! They could call us convicts under the same principle! STOP DOOMING US PLS. And I would go on Job Seekers, but I don't want to apply anywhere and end up with a job I hate as much as Tony Abbott.



@Noblejanobii XD Lol. Well I'm glad you don't need that side effect. If you did then I'd be concerned.

Ahaha I can see it now! The image is so miniscule that I can't make out anything else though. xD And oohh, yeah, we have that equivalent here. xD Pain in the buttocks.

[Noblejanobii]

No no. Still wrong. See, besides you guys I do have other friends in Australia on other sites and they've never made the mistake of calling me a Yank. No I usually get called Red Neck or something and then when I reveal I'm in the state that started the Civil War I usually get called Confederate. Never Yank. Yank is for people who wanted the Union to stay together.

I think we should be concerned if anyone needed that side effect.

I'll send you a link to my DA page. You can see it on my ID better. Yes, so you see the problem now?

[[Desolate Divine]]

Right. People on websites. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thnk the fact that, I dunno, I live in Australia, with the other 23 million Australians makes me slightly more educated in the slang we use and what it refers to than yourself. So no, here, yank has nothing to do with which state you live in. It just refers to anything American. Case closed. Not sure how other countries interpret it, but the way it is used here, and the way I use it are like that.

And Xanthe, that depends on the person. I can honestly say I know no Europeans who would take offence to that if used in a banterish manner, just like I wouldn't take offence to being called a yobo or a bogan. They were it like a badge of pride. And I have turned down two crap jobs in jobseekers

Oh come on, Reb. The Civil War is over and you guys lost.

Shroomish, from Tennessee, calls me a Yankee. I don't quite understand since I'm from California. There isn't much of a north/south divide over here.

Yeah I agree with Jacob, "yank" is a common term for "American" over here. It's not an insult or anything. Also being half a wog, I call people wogs all the time haha. It used to be derogatory but then the Europeans kind of claimed it and it's not derogatory anymore. Obviously Xanthe is too sophisticated for us. xD

[[Desolate Divine]]

Yes, The eastern side of D***** Roadwhere Xanthe lives is SOOOO much more sophisticated than the scummy western side where I live haha

Wait. Sarah, you are half wog? I did not know that haha
