Only silly people use pounds. I mean, nobody thinks like: "Just one kilo equals 2,2 or so of those measly pounds", instead we think that: "a pound is 0.453 kilos, and that's way less than a kilo. Pounds for the lose", right?
kilos > pounds

Still I can't deny that pounding things is good fun, and I don't really know how to 'kilo'. I suppose both have strong points. So whatever floats your teaset. (or silly teaset if you prefer pounds...)

I just happen to remember the kilo to pound ratio. I don't think it's particularly strange though... But then I suppose I don't think It's strange at all that I like Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha. (Well, more like I'm a fanboy of the highest order really. Not like cultism and stuff however, just clenching my fists, obsession, accusing all naysayers of heresy, the usual... [I want a Bardiche keychain! And some of those nifty figures on my table! If only there were ones without gratuitous a*se... But alas, such are nigh nonexistent, for the japanese seem to be obsessed with plastic buttocks... Not healthy. Not healthy at all... Angry

])

Coffee and sugar? I approve as long as they're kept separate. Why ruin a perfectly good coffee with sugar? I cannot begin to fathom the reasons for that. It's just wrong in all ways. I myself did that mistake a few times, but coffee without sugar is and will always be far superior.

By the by, what is this thread supposed about? Because I haven't the foggiest. Cheesy

BigKahuna,

Yes, the thread makes perfect sense indeed, don't it? Smuggling stones in a plane, wrecking things, money, weight unit superiority and lamentations about snoring and unnecessary plastic a*ses. All that and more in the same compact 9 page package. Spiffy!

There was also discussion about concealing slings on a plane. I say the best way to do that if you have a leather pouch is to simply use the sling as an eyepatch. It works AND looks stylish.

Umm, just what kind of humoungous luggage allowance do you people have on domestic flights ? We only get 20kg (44 english pounds) on international flights. I am now officially impressed lol :-)

Yes, I'm sure that... got you alright. What I was talking about was those them there plasticcy PVC something or the other figurines they make in Japan a lot. Usually about 20cm tall, look like characters from popular anime, then people buy them for some obscure reason. All fine and dandy.

But the people making them seem to always make them so that there's some a*se or panties like: "IN YO FACE!"
I've got nothing against a*ses or panties in particular, neither have ever maimed me or anything like that, but that sort of thing just isn't something I'd like on my desk. Besides, even I myself would probably give me weird looks. Grin

I hear some of them have removable clothes too, and that's kind of really creepy in a very bad way. Would probably get troublesome too... *clonk* "What what? Oh hell's bells! Not again! Those bloody clothes fell down again... Alright... Duct tape time! Too bad I'll never see the figurine itself." No spank you. I want a nice looking figurine, not a plastic a*se that has dangerous small parts. Undecided

If I recall right they were about 18" tall and anatomically correct.
