I can't recall any one embarrassing moment, I get embarrassed a lot I think. I just blank a lot of them out now.

Yesterday I tripped up some stairs in a pub (for I was wasted) and I heard a chorus of young ladies giggle behind me, and I told them to "fucking fuck off."

I impress the ladyfolk.

Does that count?



There's your problem. You went to a Shitty Camp and ate Crap.


I love how matter-of-fact you said that.

You have any idea how is it to not eat for 3-4 days? Even Bear Grylls eats more than me in his survival show than I ate in that camp....that food was even worse than eating a beetle larva...

EDIT*:
I think everyone knows the video :

Its funny that you used Bear Grylls as a reference after talking about shitting. Its, like, Bear Grylls' favourite thing to eat - the shit of various animals.

Which, is interesting, because from that video alone, its evidently clear that Bear actually quite enjoys the taste of feces, at least opposed to larvae.

lismati 08-27-2010 10:27 AM

Honestly Grylls really eats normall food. There are two people with him everywhere. Cameraman, and a safety specialist. There was even 2-part episode 'bout this.

I didn't say Bear Grylls was a genuine survivalist. This we all should know he isn't.

I just said he likes eating animal shit. Which in fact is true.
Oh and giving himself enemas created FROM animal shit.

He doesn't HAVE to, he just does. He's a barrel of laughs, that boy.

lismati 08-27-2010 12:21 PM

In that special there was a scene where he ate goat's testicle. He said he will probably puke, and he did after turning all blue on his face.

So I think he doesnt like to eat each "shit" that he sees

I see your attempt at a play on words of 'shit' being the Americanised linguistic alternative for 'stuff' - but Bear Grylls DOES eat shit, more than once, many times. This is fact.

Is americanized an americanized form of americanised?

hahaha good call.

I always find Americans using 'zeds' instead of 'eSses' to be really unsettling. Feels so dirty. I haven't been tainted enough to use such a thing yet. ;)

[on topic] But when I do, I'm sure I will be very embarrassed. [/on topic]

OANST 08-28-2010 06:16 AM

It's amazing how much you people think about the way Americans do and say things at all times. The British and the way they talk never come up in a normal conversation with me. Do you think the reason that you bitch about another culture's accent so much might be because you're a stupid, pretentious twat?

I think it might be.

Actually, "z"s and "s"s can be used interchangeably in both British and American English. The only time you can't use a "z" in British English is in words like "analyse". If you spelt it "analyze" over here, you'd be wrong.

Is that so? I guess it makes sense that they can be used interchangeably, we all used 'z' at one point, then we were the ones that decided to change those words back to an 'S' spelling, from a 'z' spelling, and then Americans and American English didn't.



..oh and that's nice OANST. I appreciate your concern, or something? You know what I find pretentious about Americans? The 'percentage game'. I find it ridiculously pretentious how proud you all are about what percentage of a culture you are.
I'm so sorry I came across as this 'pretentious backwards Brit', with my initial lighthearted nitpicking; I'm actually very fond of America, I'm so very sorry you've based your opinions otherwise.

Actually, no. This is what I'm talking about. I called you, you, you a pretentious twat, and your response was to call Americans pretentious twats for something that has nothing to do with our conversation. So, yes. You are one of those pretentious twats who are stupid enough to think that your obsession with the failings of American culture make your culture stronger and better, thus making you better by association.

Protip: It doesn't. It just makes you a pretentious twat.

I suppose he wasn't in the SAS genuinely then.

Yeah, shut the fuck up.

I wasn't aware we were talking about his SAS training. I was playing off the depiction of what makes a genuine survivalist as far as TV personalities go. Many thought he was but a man and a cameraman in the wild, until it was unveiled he wasn't..

Jesus Christ, look at you rant and rave. How was my responding of something offtopic with an example of something equally offtopic yet relevant to all things pretentious, not to do with the conversation we're having?!
And where is my obsession with the failings of American culture?! Where have I demonstrated that I dislike American culture? As a Brit, we make fun of ourselves on a regular basis, and expect to be able to make fun of every other culture in turn. I'm sorry if that's too much of an arrogant approach for you. Like I said, I apologise for my 'apparent' disliking of American culture. :fuzconf:

OddjobAbe 08-28-2010 11:07 AM

I do dislike American culture, and I've never got into this argument before. There's something happening here.

It's like you're saying that you don't eat hamburgers while eating a hamburger.

I think you're just out to get me. And that hurts my feelings OANST. It really does. You seemed like such a nice Our Worst Member Ever initially.

OANST 08-28-2010 11:24 AM

Nah. You irritated me, so I told you. Not much more than that.

Really? I'm so sorry.

On my behalf, I'd just like to say how embarrassing this all is for me. :(

Nate 08-28-2010 06:51 PM

The only reason why OANST's countrymen don't spend their time thinking about cultural differences with the rest of the world is because most of them don't realise there is such a thing as 'The Rest Of The World'.

OANST 08-30-2010 06:15 AM

Insult to injury.

Leto 08-31-2010 03:32 PM

IDK, I shat my pants on an elevator once when I was like 10, pretended it didn't happen then rushed to the loo to clean my boxers. Was trying to fart and be funny/amuse my peers of the time.

ziggy 09-01-2010 05:49 PM

Dang, that must have sucked. I shit my pants when I was 6 at school, and tried to play it off like nothing happened. Then my teacher asked me, "Do you need to go to the bathroom?" Not anymore. I must have reeked.

It's just picking on the newbie, America being the youngest culture in the world and all...

Nate 09-02-2010 12:00 AM

Off the top of my head I can think of at least 15 countries younger than America and several that weren't even settled by whitefolk until after America's independance.

I once pissed myself when I was 5 or 6 at school. Is that more socially redeemable than shitting oneself?

It was a reasonably small spillage compared to this guy a year later who left both a trail of piss, and his dignity, behind as he legged it across the classroom to the toilets.

He was also the kid who couldn't spell his own name. And the one that later became a jock..

SAS training makes you a good survivalist. It doesn't matter how he acts on camera, because it's fucking SAS training.

Also, OANST really hit the nail on the head. I'm not even American (but at this point am so cynical about dumb ol' Canada that the two are more or less the same to me) and seeing people needlessly shitting all over Tha States because they can't think of anything better is so boring.


Anyway, I can't think of a most embarrassing moment. Nothing really springs to mind that I didn't make up for in an awesome way at some point.

Although the time I got into a fistfight and the guy rode my bicycle away was kind of crappy.

ah shit now im mad

Alright, calm down.
Perhaps I worded my initial statement slightly vaguely, I can't remember. I'm sorry that giving us falsehoods about how he went about his televised survival programme, doesn't agitate you because he has fucking SAS training.

Again, I never was being overly critical about American culture or language!, what I was stating was merely in jest. Its somewhat of a tradition amongst us with senses of humour. We play off stereotypes. You want to have a go at the legitimate Brits who really do hate your guts, not the ones joking around. Its unfortunate that my lighthearted comment didn't translate well over forums. Okay?

Calm down baby, have a piece of cheese.
