What year is it?
 
Ok, yeah I know. It's 2004.

But it's nearly 2005. So I thought I'd beat Peter's sorry ass to it ;) and wish you all a happy new year and hope you all have lots of fun. So have a happy new year.

There, I have done my wellwishing.
I urge you all to do the same.

SeaRex 12-29-2004 08:27 AM

I never really "got" New Year stuff. I mean, it's just another day for me. The only difference is that I have to remember to change the date the next morning...

Well, my peeps and I are using New Year's Eve as an excuse to have a Halo 2 party, so I guess everything turned out OK after all.

AquaticAmbi 12-29-2004 08:45 AM

Just another day for me as well. Except the day before New Year's Eve, I have to have my wisdom teeth removed. If I do anything this year, I'll have to do it with a big swollen and sore chipmunk face and on some heavy painkillers. Whee.

Oddish 12-29-2004 08:53 AM

I get to have presents on New Years day, hooray for me!

Oddly Insane 12-29-2004 10:54 AM

I HAVE A PARTY!!!! YEAH! Getiing drunk:beer:

Majic 12-29-2004 12:19 PM

New Years is a reason to have/go to a party, and if you're old enough, get drunk and drive home afterwards. Not to mention, it also gives some justification for stretching out Christmas vacation. Forget logical backing; not question tradition can be a plus at times.

Rich 12-29-2004 12:24 PM

Parties? heh, I don't make a fuss over it either. I just wanted to make a new year thread before Alcar. :)

mawk 12-29-2004 06:14 PM

No.

1. Being drunk is stupid.
2. New Years parties attract idiots and stupidty.
3. I'd rather get high, feel sick, and go to bed with a headache.

Do you realize how much a of a dumbfuck you sound? Anyway down here in scotland were allowed to have beer on new years . or atleast I'm allowed to .

Coming from the person who refers to Scotland as being "down here", even though it is closer to the true north pole than Moscow. Coming from the person who leaves a space before AND after a full stop, and doesn't bother to capitalize the first letter of "scotland". Coming from the person who is apparantly so young, that he has to wait an entire year for the New Year to come along, just so that he can have beer without getting spanked by his Daddy.

I'd say that's pretty damn rich coming from you, CS, you juvenile tit.

Most people know enough about their own country to get the actual position of it right. I mean, come on! Scotland, being 'down here'? Makes no sense, unless you think we all live in the north pole...








Do you?

Only if you invite idiots and stupid people.

I never host the parties. Even if you do host the parties, the idiots and stupid people seem to come along invited or not anyway. And everyone who wasn't stupid when they came in, will leave stupid due to being drunk.

I hate New Years almost as much as I hate christmas.

Necrum Miner 12-29-2004 08:02 PM

If you don't host the parties, check who's coming beforehand. If someone arrives uninvited, the host should ask them to leave. And most of the time you won't care about other people being drunk, since you'll be drunk too. If you're not an alcoholic, make sure some others who don't drink come too. And if they don't, it obviously won't be any fun, so don't go in the first place.

Grow up.

And we have a street party on the second main street of our town for New Years eve, and it's usually a good time. Note how I don't say "YEAH! BEER! DRUNK! URG!", Oddly Insane.

And Necrum Miner, I believe you are getting the word 'alcoholic' confused.

You're SO on my list of people to ban in 2005.

What's everyone kicking up a stink about alcohol? It's the person, not the drug that abuses it. Personally, I only drink socially, but I abstain from smoking (eww). I know for one I'll be at a party this New Years Eve, and I see no reason as to not attend. But I won't get drunk, so don't worry, the forums will still be here in the morning ;)

:eeek: Lol, you wouldn't. I haven't done anything wrong. The good people of this Forum would rise against you.

Plus it would be sad. :fuzsad: You'd be getting rid of one of the first members of the VBBoard.

Hobo 12-30-2004 05:07 AM

I can't get drunk, got through my last drops of booze yesterday *sighs* looks like i'll be talking people out of suicide. Woo!

Silversnow 12-30-2004 02:31 PM

I won't get drunk... probably I'll just have one of those drinks that contains more sugar than alcohol and watch the neighbor's fireworks. We're cheap leeches. :D

Alcar 12-30-2004 03:22 PM

Mwhahahahahha! My dear friend Rich, you hold no political sway. You could be gone and no one would know. Mwhahahahahahahahahah!

:

I'm afraid to say Rich was killed in a car accident yesterday afternoon. I was notified this even whilst asleep. His ancestors came to me in my sleep and told me.

:

Really!? They visited me too! Cool!

And thus, Rich is gone ;) And hobo is made a gullible moron too :p

It is New Years Eve today! WOOOOO! Going to a carnival tonight as well! And fireworks!

Alcar...

I hadn't noticed.

Bollocks, that means 2004 has nearly ended. Damnit that was a good year.

Godlesswanderer 12-30-2004 10:31 PM

Ah, yes. So it is. I thought it was still yesterday.

Lol, hobo is my last chance of salvation. Doesn't bode well for me. I'll have my way yet Alcar ;) you couldn't do without me.

Hobo 12-31-2004 02:50 AM

Mwahahaha! The Power! *destroys GD & FC*

*goes back to sleep*

New Years Eve now. Bloody miserable too.

Rich 12-31-2004 03:05 AM

Oh the glory! So are ye going to save me or not?

This couldn't happen, I don't travel in a car anymore.

Anyway back to the topic, the one which I beat Alcar to post...

Ah yes, New Years Eve. I'm having Chinese takeaway for tea. Blessing :)

Happy new year for tommorow...

AquaticAmbi 12-31-2004 04:52 AM

I'm going to miss 2004, as well; it's probably been the best year of my life. 2005 is certainly going to be the most difficultm and 2006 will probably be worse since I'll be graduating.

On a side note, drinking in itself, isn't bad as long as a person no when he or she has had enough. On the otherhand, getting drunk for the sake of getting drunk is purely stupid, but do as you wish. Personally, I can't touch the stuff anyway because of horrible memories involving my alcoholic father.

I don't touch the stuff either, it's vile. People say it tastes nice, no way! It's just an excuse for them to "get pissed" and act "hard" in front of their mates. As my friends have more intelligence than that I don't need to be drunk or peer pressured to gain their friendship.

Anybodies allowed to drink alcahol when they're at home as long as their over five years of age on the Isle of Man. But me, I've never had alcahol

dripik 12-31-2004 02:15 PM

Hey, it's 2005 here! The clock is 12:19 AM in Hungary just right now. Fireworks all over the place, it's like a battle out there.

Happy New Year!

Hobo 12-31-2004 02:37 PM

There's half an hour left. I found alcohol. But can still type really quite well.

WiLL the Wander 12-31-2004 02:55 PM

It's 0:54 here... sounds like a message from the future...

Feh, honestly, I like the taste of some alcoholic drinks, but a mere taste of something isn't worth the trouble that could arise. The only time I've had anything to drink is with my mother, and only a few sips. I don't think I'll feel fully comfortable being around it until I'm older.

Anyway, happy New Year to those on the other side of the world! I still have 5 or so hours.

Rich 12-31-2004 03:05 PM

Woot! Happy new year all! 0:12 over here in Britain!

...What?

Its been New Years Day here for about 15 hours. Damn headache... 2005 seems like a weird number to me... 2004 and 2003 are fine, but '05... Ho hum.

AquaticAmbi 12-31-2004 08:02 PM

It's finally 2005 here... whee? Happy New Years to people on my side of the world now.

Facsimile 12-31-2004 11:40 PM

Wow, you guys spent new years on a forum.

... Cool...

Alcar 12-31-2004 11:44 PM

Happy New Year!

As it turns out, I did not go to any parties. I went to a beach for fireworks, and ended up crashing at a mates house. There were doughnuts!

Alcar...

Splat 01-01-2005 03:46 AM

Happy new Year everybody! Welcome to 2005. I was planning to stay up all night last night but my mum came in at 3 AM (2005) and sed if i didn't shut up and go to bed I'd be grounded from the computer till easter 2007!
Ah well, Happy new year everybody.

Rich 01-01-2005 04:41 AM

Relatively Funny story:

My friend had a big party for the new Millenium eve. He stayed up all night preparing. During the countdown into the new millenium he was on the toilet. Talk about a way to start the new Millenium/ century/ decade...
