Now I can only say good things and not bad things which grind my gears :irked:

Like Censoring the bad and keeping, the good, but GTP against SOPA, a little ironic :lol: Just kidding, that's not why it was locked. /rant
Anywho...
Right now relaxing "oils" my gears.

That's not at all why it was closed. It was because a lot of people were posting single line grievances (having to clean their room and do homework - the HORROR!) leaving nothing to discuss that would then spawn 3 pages of pointless slow chatting about absolutely nothing.

Put more though and substance into your posts and it would almost assuredly still be open. You guys decide if a thread lives or dies. The staff just pulls the trigger.
 
Don't worry I did correct myself in my posts anyway. I'm not against anything because I know it was the slow-chatters.

Anyway, back to thread.

👍

I was part of the one liners and slowchats. :indiff: 👎 towards myself.

Also, guys. Don't talk about how it got closed. This isn't the place to do it. This is for good things. I stated something about the Gear Grinding thread, but it was a Gear Oiler. If it's not Oiling your Gears, go elsewhere... Please!!!
 
The acceleration on the R35 TC is unreal! I think I'm gonna speed test it tomorrow, see what its figures are like.

I used to do that but recently posted a number of rants to do with air travel.

Right now what's oiling my gears is being able to see all of my friends for the first time in a week, since it was half-term and I was on holiday.
 
^Well that post wasn't helpful! :p

Anyway, my parents have just Oiled my Gears. About a month ago I bought an Ixo Maserati MC12. Anyone remember? No, thought not. Anyway, I only got around to paying them back when the moment came as they needed $20. (the amount I owed them) So I gave them the money and I was told they would pay me back. But I told them not to because that will pay for the Die cast car. Then about 3 days later. I get paid $20. Even after trying convince them not to give me the money I still ended up with $20 more than before! I don't like to take money but when someone refuses to take no as an answer, I'm happy with the money. ;) :)

All I payed attention to was the MC12......:lol:
 
My gears are fully oiled. I have been worrying migrating our firm's mail server for a few weeks and have successfully pulled it off today, ready for DNS changeover :D

Phew! *and a sigh of relief
 
Ah, the joys of playing Team Fortress 2.

I feel rusty but racking up enough kills and ninja'ing some unwary victims was pretty satisfying.
 
That I get to hang out with my girlfriend, longboard, get a cake or something, funny cake, meatloaf, and possibly some other things, surely oils my gears. It may take something like a 16th birthday to get it done, but I got it done. I feel like the rest of today will be awesome.

Edit-Nitro, sorry I haven't been on the forums recently, I was away all weekend and outside the whole time I was home, I only check this forum really quick for the ALMS 3 thread. I'll be on more this week if school work doesn't pile up.

It's okay :lol: I really appreciate you posing on there.
If my forum gets 30 members that will oil my gears. So sign up people!
 
My new GT3 RS poster which was expensive since it was a showroom poster but it looks awesome. :D

Sorry but I don't know where to ask this, does anybody know a good website with posters of cars? I've been using EBay but it's a pain to find a nice poster for the right price.

Had a really fantastic weekend. On Friday, my girlfriend came over and I cooked a nice meal for her, and after we ate some shenanigans went on ;) Then on Saturday, I had a relaxing day, got some homework done, etc etc. Sunday, I picked up my girlfriend and we both drove 2 hours up to my Hockey tournament.

We lost the first game, which put us in the "B" semi-final. We won that game 4-2, but it was a really close game. I'm the goalie for my team, and I had one of the best games of my life, I kept our team in it when the score was tied 2-2, and we got 2 late goals to win. Then we went on to the "B" final, where we played a team from a bigger city (Oakville). That was a really close game, and we were losing 2-1 with about 6 minutes left to play, when one of our forwards scored a really nice goal to tie the game up. Then in overtime, we had to kill off a penalty, and as soon as the penalty was killed off, we went down the ice and scored the winning goal. My girlfriend slept over that night, and then the next day after I took her home I hung out with my friends and we had another game that night, which we won 4-2. Just an awesome weekend all around.
