It depends, what it should represent :D
To be honest, I am not sure what that should mean...but it is very funny :D

Edit for this:
Ok, now when I let my blond brain cells work more than usual..is it I am burner?

hořák is burner but more in meaning of torch/jet

Truth is, I have no idea how I would translate burner.

LOL

I finally did last year....

Hmmmmm, I wonder why :roll:

:lol:

Graidawg, I have really gotten to enjoy the time I spend here, and for the most part, with very few exceptions, I have not had any lasting issues or problems that haven't been smoothed over. You'll run across a plethora of emotions and personalities here, but let me tell you I have made some awesome friendships and get giddy with anticipation of either running across somebody on the playa, seeing them at the MnG (even if it requires threats of kidnapping to get someone there) :wink:

The economy is in the dumps, prices across the board are raising with no end in sight, and the weather sucks. Not surprising some are in a funk.

Hang in there though, the prize is worth the wait.
Excuse me Ma'am, your going to feel a small prick.

misa yea its meant to be i am a burner, but i like i am a jet too, i am truely rubbish at languages, i sometimes struggle with english, i think gibberish is my mother tongue. Too much time tripping or wasted as an adult methinks.
its a shame i was quite clever when i was younger. oh well spilt milk and all that

Sail man, you have said what i Feel, if i didnt enjoy it here i would of fucked off sharpish, the wit and humour is so my cup of tea (except i dont like tea) i read everything and often laugh and try to explain it at work, almost always getting blank looks. There isnt a single poster on here i wouldn't enjoy meetng, some more than others its true. Dr pyro saying he is in london IN 4 MONTHS had me looking up places to go and what to wear before i even answered.

Savannah said i am living this at hyperspeed and its true, i keep trying to slow down but then i see or read something amazing and i'm off again.

I think i'm going to have to have a sign saying something like "hi i'm graidawg, i'm not in trouble just overloaded can you put me in the shade while my brain reboots" for when i get there.

i dont like fuck your day, so i will think of something else :D

how much is a quart?

eat EVERY day? I dont think i do that now and i put weight on.

most people swear like its mandatory in the uk, i just choose to use it for special occasions - though i love to hear the polish swear, they do it in english even when they are talking polish.

The thing I cannot believe is we purchased TWO BOXES of TWINKIES today and put them on the BM supply shelf. We figure they'll get better with age. We personally have not had a Twinkie since,,,,, the 20th Century at least!

But just knowing SgOrMaEiBdOaDwYg might eat them forced us to stock the stash. one down, two to go!

I don't blame you. I'm probably out of the loop, but I never heard anyone saying that precise arrangement of words before ePlaya (though it's true, Americans love to say "fuck"). And if someone doesn't know you, isn't thick-skinned, or in on the joke, I can't vouch for how it will be received.

310,930,906 people in the US.

25977 registered users on ePlaya

362 the highest number of users on ePlaya at any one time.

You do the math. I don't think that ePlayans give a fair and unbiased representation of the US as a whole.

...and if you don't agree with the numbers - baisez-vous! Pardon my French

Hard to imagine any not thick skinned person even interested in going to Burning Man.

There has been occasion I have allowed myself to cut loose the burner snark on coworkers and board members of the partnership for which I work. The word "FUCK",,, or "GO FUCK YOURSELF" in a professional setting tends to overshadow whatever message expressed. Even though the moment may justify an expression of tremendous displeasure, some folks suffer the 'F' bomb like a physical assault and battery,,,, abusive language if you will. Even though it expresses exactly what the moment deserves in my opinion, the political correctness and cultural sensitivities overwhelm free expression.

Burners seem to take it in stride. As far as the Brits are concerned, if Gordon Ramsay is any example of proper English decorum,,, I am thinking graidawg lives in a bubble.

Oh for fucks sake! i fucking hear people use fucking as a fucking adjective, noun and verb every fucking day, its virtually fucking meaningless if the fuckwits fucking thought for one fucking secondthey would fucking well find a fuck sight more fucking words to describe or fucking Emphasise there fucking point. It's not fucking big, or fucking clever it just shows a poor fucking mastery of the fucking language. I honestly believe in schools throughout the world children are taught the fucking english fucking language and fucking told if you can't fucking think of the fucking word just think fuck it! and fucking will fucking do! all fucking right!
Famous Uses of Fuck
These are attributed uses of the word FUCK by very notable people through history. Obviously I didn't make any of these up at all (don't be so cynical) - they're all true, honest injun... Feel free to suggest some I may have left off.

* "Fucking hell, that was close" - Mayor of Hiroshima
* "Watch it, that fucker will have somebodys eye out" - King Harold
* "Heads are going to fucking roll" - Henry VIII
* "Any fucking idiot could understand that" - Albert Einstein
* "It fucking does look like her!" - Picasso
* "How the fuck did you figure that out?" - Pythagoras
* "You want what on the fucking ceiling?" - Michaelangelo
* "Fuck a duck" - Walt Disney
* "I don't suppose its gonna fucking rain?" - Joan of Arc
* "Scattered showers my fucking arse!" - Noah
* "Where the fuck did all these fucking Indians come from?" - General Custer
* "What fucking iceberg?" - Captain of the Titanic
* "Where the fuck have you been?" - Stanley to Livingstone


not forgetting "fuck you! you fucking fuck" joe pesci in casino


so wether its fuck your day or fuck my day our just fuck some poor fuckers fucking day we fucking well will have a fucking good time on the fucking playa when these fucking rants will, at fucking best, be a mildy fucking amusing story. Or we will be having a fuck. Its not like i give a fuck


its four fucking 30 thirty in the fucking morning FFS and i'm writing this in the wrong fucking thread! when i would much rather be asleep but i fucking forgot to turn my fucking laptop off and it fuking woke me up


if you think i'm exaggeratting, people actually talk like that all the time in english pubs, i just prefer to savbe my fuking for the bed or when i'm really really fucking pissed off.


have a nice day y'all


editied because my fat fucking fingers can't keep up and i miss fucking words out or just type nonsense words. fuck it i'm going to bed again!
