@rhino, i'll take it ur from potchefstroom or somewhere in the free state. Or maybe just somewhere where appearances mean a lot. Its weird how much people open up once they see ur chilled bout it. Guys esp, they get awkward then its just like a really loud fart was liberated; that moment of crossing the barbed wire into softer terrain. And its a cool place!
Listening to slipknot, god these guys are genius... voluntary brainwashing..

@ psychnymphe,
Now you're seriously speaking my language....Slipknot are indeed genius...9 band members forging such a structured wall of pulverising thrash metal... I was lucky enough to see them live in Birmingham in the UK back in 2001.
And then more recently, Slipknot's Joey Jordison standing in for Metallica's drummer Lars Ulrich at such short notice when the guy fell ill during the Download Festival, and pulling off all the whole performance without missing a beat, was also truly memorable.
Slipknot's iconic 'Wait and Bleed', 'Eyeless', '[Sic]' off the first album, 'Gently' off the second and 'The Blister Exists' off the third album (awesome use of snaredrums mixed with those BC Rich guitars grinding out those riffs) are my fave 'Knot songs.

@ psycho, i am in pta, the city of all the bad metal bands. I swear, 90% of the bands here are metal, but they all suck.if you cant do it right, why do it at all?
@ brix, i am still trying to get my files from 3gp to something a little more flexible, but no luck. Either the pc seizes up or it crashes. And the other thing, finding a legal way to do it. Most apps need a little tweaking to work, if you know what i mean. Will let you know what i pull off.
Me and my friends occasionally talk about mastrubation, and the girls just always look awkward when we do, but it is always in good spirit. Like we say, 99% of guys do it, 1% lie.

Nah, haven't had any luck with these *.mp4 files I'm trying to import to Windows Movie Maker...What happens when I'm trying to import the video straight from the phone is that instead of opening as a video file it opens up as audio-only.
It's kinda frustrating but I'll trawl the internet this evening for some tips and tricks.

"Wait and Bleed" must be my all-time favourite. I know it's just a little cliche, but hell is that song good. It makes me want to screamf**kstabkill and die in ecstasy.
You know what really pisses me off, is this whole trance wave. WHAT THE F is that about!? Let's not even talk about the so-called music, that's a waste of time. I went to one and the next morning made an informed decision: no more. To be around a bunch of nodding, tripping people in funny clothes is not my idea of a good time. Oh, and then....... there's the 'music'...

LOL @psychonymphe. I'm open to most forms of music...Hell, I can even stomach metal and those ridiculous "Bakgat Treffers" compilations- just for a laugh- but I never quite saw the point of trance, maybe because 90% of people who actually listen to it strung out on all sorts of chemicals. One Sunday, on my way to work, I passed a big trance club in Woodstock and people were still partying at 9am, a feat that can only be achieved while strung on drugs.

Don't even go there, the majority of the wannabe crowd here in PE will dance to ANY old shit, high or not. They tend to be such freaking posers, flitting from one in-club to the next, from genre to genre. Very much a bunch of baa-baas, brainless lot of twits. What's disturbing is that they're prepared to sniff/smoke/drink practically ANYTHING to get high.
As for masturbation, way back they used to tell us that we'd go blind if we overdid it. They lied, and my optometrist with his Tupperware spex will testify to that
@Brix, i ran "edgumacated" thru Google earlier, found some rather surprising results! I first came across the word in an ancient Robert Ruark novel, thought it uncommon, but it would appear that quite a number of ppl have taken a liking to that particular word in its various guises as well. You got your new residence all sorted out then?

@da krypsta: Problem is I don't have the new place sorted out, I've got some fallback options but would prefer to be the master of my own destiny. I'm looking to stay in either Gardens or Tamboerskloof...I need to be closer to the city centre.
No disrespect to the folks who live in East London/PE or any other town but I could never possibly live in those places. Was talking to a friend this morning who moved from EL to Cape Town to work and she was telling me how much she hated the place, just because it felt claustrophobic and due to a lack of "culture".

I enjoy all types of music,with the exception of rave and boere stuff, especially sokkie treffers. Good music is good music no matter what. My big styles are all rock related, and i edging towards using electronic means to get my tracks down. I like massive attack, u2 coldplay, soad, but my big influences are from movie music makers such as ennio morrocone, and lots of others. My range might be too wide, but it leaves space for innovation and something new.
I despise the club scene here. The places i would go to would be Nile Crocadile which is the rock joint and Zeplins, which is the goth joint. I will get back into that scene when i start gigging again.

No offence taken, Brix. It largely depends on one's rhythm, i think. I've spent a fair bit of time in the bigger cities, but always find myself coming back home, to where life is more sedate. If i really had to choose between Jozi and iKapa though, it'd be Slaapstad, if only for the facts that y'all also gots the beeg water
and that i know my way around quite well.
