Wow.
That was excellent.

really good! I like when the arm comes off.



The blue one reminds me of Brock and the red one reminds me of Sul.

I'm fatter, although I have the same latent manners/violent temper swings balance.

I was about to say "no, no, no" when that all occurred to me. But the reason I don't like the comparison now?

'cause that would mean that Sul wins.

:(

if you read the lefthand fast guy as aussie, and the righthand blue guy as english, you summarise the bulk of australians' perceptions of england.

"hey look, i realise i started after you and arrived before you, and i just want to go through the door-- i don't give a fuck who goes first and it appears you DO. so hey, you go first."
"you... bitch... no. no! you can't WIN! *I* shall be the sacrificer here!! YOU go first!"
"really, i meant what i said"
"you can't beat meeeeee!!!!! rather than lose this social game, i will fuck everything upppppp!!!!!!"
etc.
"screw this. i will now point out how trivial your game is"


oddly, the further north you go (except for round leeds), the fewer the exceptions. odd because this is quite the opposite of the intraUK myths/stereotypes.

oh, and MORE oddly, when the northern exceptions occur, they are surreally real, standing out like balancing weights to the surrounding average. a small number of superheavies balancing a vast number of lightweights. making the southern average look like pansies.

it really is quite odd.

So... I'm like an Australian? Is that what's being said here? Funny because Cal accused me of being French last night. Actually he accused me of being SFG so really he's doubting SFG's Frenchness I suppose (not to mention his actual being). Anyway I thought it was a nice anim and didn't really see the oh-so-obvious social subtext until now.
