OK, I've been posting on this forum for ages now starting when it was only half alive...now there are loads of people who can give exactly the same kind of advice and info that i've been giving in posts and PMs so i don't think i need to post as much as before...

In a few days my girlfriend is finally joining me in BsAs and we're going to be setting up our business ASAP (don't ask here, we'll all meet up at some point and find out what...) which will mean i'm going to have very little time to answer PMs and questions directed to me on this forum.

However, as ive only got a week or so or so left...i intend to annoy and and be as obnoxious as possible towards certain posters as much as i can. Call me childish but i think it'll be fun. Please, as Argentine Forum posters, don't judge me on my juvenile antics on the General or General Lat Am Forum...i'll still be argentine forum matttheboy...but i'll annoying bigots like moonraven, aramas, henry_foul, donfan and others quite deliberately ...hehehehe

See everyone soon,

Que anden bien, matt

i remember back in the day (all of 5 months ago) when only one or two posts were made every few days...seems like Argentina's become extraordinarily popular in such a short time. good luck with everything.
Let the catfighting begin...meow!

I was refering to your avatar. Isn't that David Hasselhoff & Gary Coleman?

P.S. What's the ambiguously gay duo? Not everything I write about is gay. I promise I'm really not as obsessed with the "gay thing" as I probably seem from my posts! I trump it way up to annoy Moonrabid, Henry_Bowell, Aram-a.s.s., and the few other douche bags on this forum.

hahaha...my apologies. I didn't mean to offend...but it definitely is a topic that is broached quite often. The ambiguously gay duo was a fairly long-running cartoon skit on SNL that was basically a parody on the whole batman & robin crimefighters in spandex idea. Here's a quote from wikipedia about it:

"The Ambiguously Gay Duo is the name of a cartoon series that is shown on Saturday Night Live, produced by Robert Smigel. It follows the adventures of Ace and Gary, two superheroes who are ambiguously gay. Ace and Gary's initials, A and G, appear on their shirts, although some think the initials A and G stand for "ambiguously gay".

The scenario is to some degree a parody of the comic book superheroes Batman and Robin, who in their secret identities as a rich man and his young ward have been suggested by some to be a homosexual couple. This charge was most famously leveled by Fredric Wertham in his 1954 book Seduction of the Innocent."

My error was when you said "If David and Gary are on our side, then we will surely prevail!"...which sounds just like a catch phrase from the SNL skit, in addition to the fact that one of the characters on it is named Gary. Also, the way you said it sounded really funny, like how it would be said in a batman and robin crimefighter type of skit...nevermind, I'll stop rambling, I think you get the point. It was just a really funny coincidence.

But yeh, with David and Gary (Coleman) on your side, you can't lose!

Don't worry about it, Viva. You didn't offend me. I was just confused because I didn't know who the Ambiguously Gay Duo was.

At this point, people are probably rolling their eyes and shaking their heads while thinking, "Damn, Jonny, you've gay-jacked yet another thread", so I am going to shut up now.
