I remember the mono eyebrow story too. And I believed it to be true.
Remember the lockdown area, ladders, weekly polls... |

What ever happened to Tricord? I haven't seen him around here forever.. For some reason he reminds me of blue fish. Where did he go too?
Didnt you start the site with blue fish, Garner? I miss all the old l4yers... Don't know what you have till its gone I guess. |

Talking Louder Makes You Understood
By Mono at 6:59am - Viewing Comments - Edited by Mono on 29th Apr 2004 11:21pm
And, other things I've learnt from tourists.
1} Talking Louder Makes You Understood.
Who hasn't noticed this? A tourist, unable to speak the language, goes through this linguistic progression.
First, they attempt to ask in the native language.
Secondly, after failing at that, they attempt to ask in their language.
Thirdly, fourthly, fifthly, etc, they attempt again in the native language. But instead of adding hand signals, pictures, braille, or changing their wording, they just get louder. Natural conclusion? Talking Louder Makes You Understood.
2} Foreign Food Is Not For Foreigners.
Who here has ever tried an American Hot Dog outside of America? Pizza's throughout the world are nothing like in Italy. Belgian Chocolate doesn't taste right unless it was made in Belgium. And so on. Yet, every time I enter the local chinese takeaway store, I find a veritable legion of asian nationals standing there complaining amongst themselves about the food. In fact, the Italian embassy complained about people putting pineapple on pizza, as it is such an un-Italian thing to do.
Few people realise foreign food actually bears no resemblance to it's foreign counterpart. They may share the same name and basic ingredients, but that is where all similarities end. After all, there is a huge difference between an asian cooking noodles, and some white boy doing it "with an asian mindset". The difference of course being, one tastes good to asians, the other tastes good to white boys eating "with an asian mindset".
Natural Conclusion: Foreign Food Is Not For Foreigners.
3} You Can't Drive.
No matter how fast you drive, how recklessly you turn, how insanely you risk yourself and other's lives, these guys always do more. You take a corner at 60? They'll do it at 75. You pass someone on a small residential street? They'll do the same round a corner. Moral of the story? Compared to these guys, You Can't Drive.
In conclusion, there are millions of things you can learn from foreign tourists in your country. Any other suggestions?
Heheh! Love the Soupes!
I miss Blue Fish too, hey Garner any cahnce of a guest appearance? |

Good god, there's a slightly embarrassing part of my past.
I have to say, by far the funniest Soupe I ever did in my mind was the objective comparison between the respective entertainment values of a Gamecube as compared to a Mule.
I stopped writing largely because the site became so heavily fractured by the PF system instead of Unified - it truly did move away from Unified in more than name. |

Ok...
L4Y started with myself and Blue_Fish (my brother). DG became staff very early on.
About 6 months later Tricord started RFP, with myself as a sort of silent, in the background kinda guy. Had an admin account but really was only there for development with Unified which L4Y started to use at the same time.
RFP had Genxer as one of the staffers there.
Tricord kinda got bored with the whole thing and as I owned the RFP domain name it was a simple case to save the site - merge it in with L4Y. Handy that both sites ran the same code...
Blue_Fish was only really here for the Delta Force games. Once they were past their peak he moved on. DG/Genxer are still around today... |
