The moonshine was mostly due to an envy sparked by the Norwegians having better weather than us Swedes, methinks I'll have to conquer them in Europa Universalis III just to make a point. That always fills me with a warm and fuzzy feeling.

And yes, this thread positively had my weeping hot tears of joy!

I wonder if the original poster ever saw this, and what the heck he made of it all...

I myself think it serves exemplary to show the friendship and warmth on these forums, not unlike being in a mountain cabin in front of a fireplace with a good drink in hand and better company.

well, I've used us all getting on like a house on fire already, but it nice to pop into such a friendly forum and know that we're all pulling in the same direction. friendship, courtesy and respect. What more could you ask for? Oh, and moonshine in a can... and snus...

I hope the original poster would find the fun in it. I hope so, as I'd hate to think we've burned our bridges with him/her

Aye! Such would be a sad thing.

Almost as sad as seeing one of my good friends drunk off her tits sitting on the curb. I felt so bad I had to pick her up and drive her to the calescent comforts of her home. I think she went mad with the perfume bottle, I touched her shoulder and she was wearing a jacket. Now my hand smells like her perfume. It's not entirely unpleasant I admit.

There will be much heart(h)y wit coming her way tomorrow!

thothkins, you are hereby awarded the Racoon Stamp of Approval, on the basis of providing the best description ever seen regarding the Goldhawk Forums!

Now all I need is snus, no money until tomorrow and no snus since yesterday, it really burns, I tell ye! :eek:

Ladies perfume is an odd creation, that seems to stick to anything like leeches. Not entirely unpleasant though, but when you wake up with your shirt smelling like your former (and now engaged to another guy) girlfriend, and the memories are a bit iffy, you can't help but feel like someone turned up the heat :P

Yeah, still way more preferable to waking up and everything smelling like cigarettes, which was the case before the ban on smoking in bars etc.

Knowing this forum, our passion for keeping threads from going necro will never need rekindling.

I find Gauddlike's lack of faith in our firemongering somewhat disturbing...

Well, I tend to "forget" I stopped smoking when I go out. There's just something about sucking on a glowing piece of poison that gives me an inner peace. It does smell though, which I keep noticing more and more the less I smoke.

yeah! My second Racoon Stamp of Approval. There's nothing like the recognition of your peer group in an understated way. And this is indeed nothing like that. This is a Racoon Award! Yay!

I just wish that I had typed it properly in the first place and not after 1am :)

Should read:

Notice, I didn't say that I was referring to this forum or that , if I was, that it was at all accurate. Cue flame wars.

But enough about that. Why read this when we can be reading about Icevamp and Swe_Racoon getting into hot water over drunk friends/ex-girlfriends?

Is that a sauna or some kind of hot tub party?

I do find it heartwarming when one of our compatriots gets recognised with so prestigious an award as well.

Well, it did sound as though they still have the hots for them. I was hoping to use that as a starting point and then see where the salacious gossip went from there...

You just walk up to any person in the street and whisper "...and what did you get from the racoon?" and just see the looks you get. Those are looks of disappointment and loss. They try and cold shoulder you, but that's just the bitterness because they didn't get a Racoon Stamp of Approval.

your probably better using the mask. Not to people you know obviously. There's no point nipping into the kitchen for a second and coming back in, but with a racoon mask on. Unless your going out with Lois Lane, they might suspect.

I find a lot of people a bit frustrating, in that there's often a selfish streak in them. They rate themselves against the world around them. and their own perceptions trip them up if they feel they come up short. All in their head. An example would be if you've just listened to how someone's day has gone. You've dutifully listened and nodded every 20 seconds and made appropriate "uh huh" noises. then, not because you were asked how your day went, you happen to mention that you got a Racoon Stamp of Approval.

You see the pain of frustration in their eye a moment before the cold shoulder treatment starts. Is it too much to ask that people don't blow hot and cold?

While I'm reluctant to engage in topics that could land me a scalding, the girl was not an ex of mine, just a friend. I don't know if we could get involved beyond physical gratification. I suspect I'm way too nice for her.

I wish to extend my congratulations to thotkins for his second Raccoon Stamp of Approval, it was obviously well deserved. I'd also like to inform him that I share his pain, I find people frustrating too.

well, there's an award that we'd all walk over hot coals for. It's just that how could you really take an award from Chuck, knowing that you'll always be utterly inferior in every way.

Aliens DO indeed exist. They just know better than to visit a planet that Chuck Norris is on.

No, I'll thank my lucky stars (which are very, very warm inside so I'm counting that) that I've been lucky enough to get my Racoon award. Racoon has a fuzzy face too, presumably a tribute to the mighty Chuck.

Actually walking on coal isn't that impressive, because coal doesn't transfer energy very well. If you walked over a steel plate at the same temperature as coals ready for the grill, I'd be very very impressed. And grossed out. And you'd probably die if you didn't manage to get off it. That would be sad.

Now, I've never walked on smoldering coals, but the science behind it is perfectly reasonable.
