When is NOX back?

[welshsteve]

The place is quiet without him :D

[Horus_Kol]

he's gone? :D

[welshsteve]

Isn't he on his holidays?

[Pegasus]

He should be back in a week or so. I'm pretty sure he's gone for 2 weeks.

Peg

[Horus_Kol]

yes - he's been on holiday, but he has been posting from internet cafes, I believe...

[welshsteve]

:lol: he's ADDICTED!! :D

[Disturbed]

Does someone miss Nox? Lol. He said 2 weeks, I think...

**EDIT**
Checked his post

But then again, two weeks in the Canaries sounds nice

[okeeffemarc]

i certainly wouldnt be in internet cafes if i was on an exotic island with lots of cheap booze, fags and women!

[Horus_Kol]

Nox isn't all that old, y'know - and definitely not a salty ol' seadog like you :P

[welshsteve]

He's just always posting replies to everyone and place seems quieter without him here :D

[welshsteve]

:lol: nox is 15 isn't he?

[Disturbed]

Ya... Check my age thread :D

[ExtraDog]

i certainly wouldnt be in internet cafes if i was on an exotic island with lots of cheap booze, fags and women!

Okay, just so you know. That sounded really sick till I remembered that you're a Brit..:o

[Juparis]

Indeed; even I thought otherwise until I read it thru a second time. ;)

But I can't believe what else I'm hearing! Someone missing nox??! Let's just enjoy the peace and quite while it lasts... I'm sure there'll be a big party once he returns. :D

[Doug.Mellon]

:lol: he's ADDICTED!! :D
haha.. yes that he is.

[Pegasus]

ED, you've been making up for Nox, so no worries about the place going silent while he's gone. ;)

Peg

[okeeffemarc]

Okay, just so you know. That sounded really sick till I remembered that you're a Brit..:o


sick? no im just frank

[Horus_Kol]

i think he's talking about the "fags"... they don't smoke them out in the US :D

[welshsteve]

:lol: the old "fags" thing. Fags are only slang for cigarettes in the UK aren't they? :D

[okeeffemarc]

i think he's talking about the "fags"... they don't smoke them out in the US :D


oh! oops means somthing different across the pond :lol:

[althalus]

silly people...

and what about the thongs? ;P (i wear them on my feet!!!!) not to stir anything up here ;D

nox mentioned it rained at one time or another when he was in the café, so i guess that means it's alright to sneak away from reality for a few minutes to see what us maniacs are up to? ;D

but yeah, he better have had fun.. :D

[nox-Hand]

But now I am back, and this place shall no longer be a quiet mumling house! You said something about a party I believe, yes?

Well, reading up, I think I should answer a 'few' posts ;)

The place is quiet without him
It is? I hardly noticed. But then again, I was gone..
he's gone?
Not anymore, but yes, I was.
Isn't he on his holidays?
Bingo, that is what I was.
He should be back in a week or so. I'm pretty sure he's gone for 2 weeks.
Correct again!
yes - he's been on holiday, but he has been posting from internet cafes, I believe...
You guys are on a roll today! Three correct people!
:lol: he's ADDICTED!! :D
Yes, I am. I feel very deprived of my drug, so I should get topping up. It did not help with the boards being down this morning. .. Just when I was about to post..
I certainly wouldnt be in internet cafes if i was on an exotic island with lots of cheap booze, fags and women!
Well, I was not online that much now, was I.. And I do not smoke, hardly drink yet, and so on.. Well, I had a few shots and a Bloody Mary.
Nox isn't all that old, y'know - and definitely not a salty ol' seadog like you
What? Seadog? :confused: ;)
But I can't believe what else I'm hearing! Someone missing nox??! Let's just enjoy the peace and quite while it lasts... I'm sure there'll be a big party once he returns
Oh, yes. There shall be. And you are all invited! .... Where'd everyone go..? Hiding are we? :mad:

:P
sick? no im just frank
Err.. Right ;)
nox mentioned it rained at one time or another when he was in the café, so i guess that means it's alright to sneak away from reality for a few minutes to see what us maniacs are up to? ;D

That is the ticket. 5/7 times it was raining. And I was only on for 15 mins, so it is not that bad ;)
but yeah, he better have had fun..


How is that for a 'I'm baaaaack!' post? :rolleyes:
Oh, I did, I did :D

[bobfunland]

Yeah, well I wish NOx would just go away. He's an environmental disaster you know.
Overseas NOx Could Be Boosting Ozone Levels In US (http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2006/02/060216232715.htm)

I would normally put a smiley on the end of that, but I've decided to boycott them all in protest.

Yes, I am dangerous. What's your grudge about the smileys?

@invasion@ :) :D :o :P :cool: :rolleyes: :eek: :lol: :supereek: @invasion@

[Macbeth]

That sounded really sick till I remembered that you're a Brit..
... What does 'fag' mean in America?

[Pegasus]

It's a slang term for homosexual.

Peg

[-i-dont-know-]

That does sound sick:eek:

[Macbeth]

Oh... I see. I knew you couldn't smoke 'fags' in America, but I didn't know it had another meaning.

[nox-Hand]

It's a slang term for homosexual.

Peg

Not only that. I looked it up. This is what I got:

Good lord, no! Those are most certainly not British uses.

That'll be why, no doubt. Drudgery, *tsk*...

[Horus_Kol]

Macbeth - they are British uses... at least, if you read Enid Blyton or go to Harvard or Eton... i used to hear that word used in those contexts from some of the Oxford Uni students I knew a few years back...

[Macbeth]

Hmm... The first, maybe. But the next time I'm tediously working my 'fag', I'll let you know ;).

[welshsteve]

:lol: how diverse has this conversation become :D

Welcome back nox

[nox-Hand]

That is true ;)

Thanks,

[welshsteve]

It's the beauty of chatting :D you can start talking about one thing, then by the end it can be something completely different.

[okeeffemarc]

lol, thank god ive never been a fag! in any context

[welshsteve]

:lol: yeah, me too.

[nox-Hand]

Neither have I :D

[-iNsOmNiAc-]

you wouldn't want to say "smoke" either, some places it's slang for suck.

[Horus_Kol]

like in the Oval Office? :P

[nox-Hand]

*wonders how this thread got so off topic ;)*

[Macbeth]

*wonders how this thread got so off topic ;)*
Yeah, lets stop talking about fags and start talking about Nox again :P.

[nox-Hand]

Is there really that much to talk about? I mean, come on! I am me, and that is that. There is not much more to it :P

[Macbeth]

Ah, yes, but there are the many moods of you, and styles, and tastes, and flavours, and then there's your ambitions, your personality, your place of schooling, the pleasures you get out of life, the... *continues blabbering on for several hours*
... and your taste in exotic T-shirts, in tourists, in continents, and... Oh, screw it. Write an autobiography.

Do you mean 'Write an autobiography'?

[okeeffemarc]

lol, is that a spelling mistake macbeth?

[Macbeth]

I can't believe you taken to framing innocent people and putting words into their mouth, only so you can correct them, nox! It clearly says 'write' in my post!
*slight cough* *blush*

Clearly I was only going back to that post because I left the kettle on. Do not jump to conclusions. *whistles*

[nox-Hand]

*Listens to the tune emitted from Macbeth's mouth*
What tune is that?

[Macbeth]

You know, the general 'supicously creeping aw- Oh my god, LOOK OVER THERE! *gestures*' sort of tune. And now I come to speak of it:
LOOK OVER THERE!*scarpers*

[nox-Hand]

*Looks nowhere in particular*
What am I looking at? Macbeth? What am I looking at? Hey, where'd Macbeth go?

[Pegasus]

He was muttering something about witches, and he went thataway --->

Peg

[nox-Hand]

Okay I shall go look for him -||- Oi, hang on. What way is --> that way on a PC? In my room it is out of my 1rst story window *gulp*

[dimeric]

Ahhh fags are eton specific i believe. Quite famously humphey littleton(famous jazz musician and radio presenter )said on coast to coast US TV he was Lord Harringtons fag when they were at eton together. The show got a fair few letters of complaint so had to annouce what the humphey had meant!
