  1. Gamera, rock salt and olive oil on icecream? Are you sure?
  2. Yeah that's full on. Your friend must be busy!

  3. Gamera I can't for the life of me understand why some men insist on doing that. It wrecks the enamel on your teeth - so you probably have stronger teeth than them!
  4. Stupid grotty birds! Or maybe that should be stupid grotty politicians. It's pathetic that no one's come up with a strong contingency plan. Seems everyone's too busy with the 'war on terror' to be bothered with possible pandemics.
  5. That avi was scary! I couldn't believe how loud the cracking noise was.
  6. I saw it at the cinema yesterday. It was pretty good although a bit long and drawn out in some places. I personally think they focused a bit too heavily on the history of the sport and spent too little time on the present day/future of the sport. Other than that, it was shot really well and the action was great. There were only five people in the cinema (including me and my boyfriend) so I'm guessing it's been a bit of a flop financially.
  7. It sounds kind of... revolting? My favourite dessert is plain vanilla icecream with ice magic on top. It's a lot cheaper too.
  8. Wow, according to you all men are saints. While I agree that in some cases the cheating is an isolated event, in many it isn't. In fact, I work with three men who have been divorced multiple times - the reason? They can't keep their dicks in their pants. The sickening thing is that they're actually proud of it.
  9. Snowglider, Indo... Is how much money you give people really dependent on how much you think they're worth? If that were the case, I couldn't afford it. The amount of money I 'designated' for them is based on several factors: For our parents - they don't need the money. They own their homes and have all the things they want and need. I just thought that $1 million would allow them to go crazy and treat themselves to whatever they wanted. My mother would probably buy shoes and my father would probably take it to the casino and blow it in one go. For my siblings - well, they don'
  10. Indonsm, that's so true. It's so easy to be pragmatic about these things now, but if I were to win that sort of money, I can just see that all of a sudden, a $600,000 house wouldn't be enough. The more money you have, the more you spend. TJ OZ - you're right. I know I won't win, I never bloody win anything!!!
  11. This is the way I see it: By committing to your partner, you're not promising them that you'll never be attracted to another person or be tempted to cheat. What you are promising them is that you'll resist the temptation and stick with them throughout the rough times. Cheating is one of the hardest things to forgive. It's not just the fact that your partner has feelings for someone else, but the fact that they've knowingly hurt you and betrayed your trust. As horrible as it would be, I'd much rather my boyfriend come to me and say 'look, I have feelings for this person, I want
  12. I would buy a kickass house for me and my boyfriend to live in and maybe an investment property to rent. I would give $1 million to my parents and $1 million to his parents, and $50,000 to each of our siblings. Then I'd give $20,000 to our best friends as a wedding present. Frivolities: I'd buy a puppy, some nice clothes for me and the bf, as well as a new car. Then I'd buy us a two-week ski trip to Japan, including new skiis for us both. I'd also donate a heap of money to charity - probably towards cancer research and the relief efforts in Sudan. I wouldn't quit my job but
  13. Wow, that would have to be a pretty night on the town NPM!
  14. Today I bought my first lottery ticket ever. The prize is $19 million. If you won the money how would you spend it?
  15. Quote: Originally posted by Kintaro: Having a crisis (which I agree we all have) is not the same as cheating. It is, actually black and white. Cheat or don't. Not a very difficult concept. The grey that you have to deal with could easily be dealt with in the realm of black or white (cheat or don't cheat.) Well said.

  17. Quote: Originally posted by Ocean11: > my wife is the apple of my eye My point being to rebut nicole's suggestion that 'cheating' would likely be serial behaviour on the part of a man whose first wife didn't keep her vows - he might very well be looking for a second one that will. And hedging his bets at the same time, as older men are wont to do. Riiiiightt... so because the first wife turned out to be a dud, he's completely justified in looking for a better replacement? Of course, all marriages have their problems and a lot of them don't work out, but that's no justification
  18. Cheating is low. If anything it should lower one's self esteem. The worst scenario is when women have affairs with married men in the hope that they'll leave their wives and marry them instead. As if a guy like that wouldn't do it again to them. Stupid.
  19. Public toilets are pretty disgusting, I avoid them at all costs.
  20. I guess Japanese people have a more defined almond shape. But yes, it's a bit confusing.
  21. Why are people so freaked about germs? They keep your immune system strong!
