I misread the title as "reading" as in reading a book. Thought XDA had suddenly turned all studious and cultural for a moment and you were promoting some sort of book festival (not that there would be anything wrong with that!)

mike...what have u been smoking?
Best festival here in canada (IMO) is WEMF which is the World Electronic Music Festival where it's pretty much 3 days of camping + electronic music (anything from techno to hhc to drum n bass) i managed to go last year and i believe it was one of the best weekend long events i've ever been to
Silly Rory...Nothing at Reading compares to this.
what a randomer calling me silly.. noobs!
Haha...Shutup Rory. You know I'm right. As I said earlier, the violin is a more popular instrument than all types of guitar combined.
Thought i'd celebrate. This is my 700th post.
I think i'm on XDA-devs way too much.
Opinions?

LOL! I know, when I think about it, I wonder how I managed to post so much in a few months, but I go through a bunch of sections each night and it's only 4 posts a day average! I think it's due to the increase of juniors and the off the wall questions, and of course, the serious users looking for help/answers. The problem is as soon as I set everything up I want to change it, so then I'm back to another round of posting. Sigh.....I need a beer .
exactly. If you'll notice, i've expanded my tech support tyranny into the elf and artemis forums. I can't let you beat me now...!!
you think youre on too much?
i wake up in the morninng.
turn on my computer.
go eat while it loads up.
finsh eating and go to my computer.

I love xda-developers. I'm Singaporean and I'm going to Vegas for a convention - what recommendations does anyone have for me (a first-timer in USA) that isn't politically correct on Google?
I wish I was cool enough to be geekified and smart. Alas, I am only good enough to be interested in gadgets but not knowing anything about them.

I'd be nervous trusting my life in the hands of an xda user, depending on how much he is on!
Where's the weirdest/most exotic place you've ever visited XDA from?
Come on now,
come clean,
whether you're single, dating or married, you know you've done it...
under the cloak of darkness, or dare I say, in public (you voyeour you)...
You've been busted doing it, and lied about it...
Admit it, it's a guilty pleasure and you have to do it more than once a day...
You're addicted...
What odd space are you visiting XDA from?
---Bathroom while 'checking' my home's plumbing
still a virgin
I'm doing it now as I type this with one hand.
On a last seat of an "electronic bus" (I do not know how to call it, we have those things in Estonia - they get power through two corns from lines over them) and I was 18 but she was 23

No way!
On a top of a mountain in the snow. Both the dirty version and visit XDA
Its amazing how good cell reception is when you have line of sight to 100 towers I also called in a pizza whilst up there...
On top of a machine wash
Take your pick:
On top of a mountain (No snow thankfully)
On an Amtrak Train
In a PortaJohn (It was clean and unused for the record)
In the Data Center
On the CEO's desk (I won't state whether it was my employer or hers)
No me but definitely worth a mention:
A former Cellular Carrier employee and a subcontractor were caught inside a shelter at a Cell Site.
Now I hope you meant "the wierdest place you've accessed XDA"
I don't get what you are trying to ask. Weirdest place you've accessed XDA or weirdest place you've done it? "referring to sex"

So now I think the place is not a problem for this topic.
But one thing still confuses me is if just using mouth to do “that”，should it be counted in "that"??

Hello, I have a few questions for the numerous people that live over in the UK.
1. What are common phrases you say every day?
2. What are some uncommon phrases you don't say every day?
3. Why do you drive on the left side of the road?
4. Do you all visit these..... places for phones?? This is a quote from Demon_Man, a british person

Just had a right laugh nice weather so walked to town, went in Carphone Whorehouse and said i need the Internet settings for android on virgin and he took my phone to check the settings and just looked at it didnt no what to do, the same in Virgin media lol, only use i have actually found for Android on my leo so far to confuse the shops LMFAO

That's it. Thanks!
1. What are common phrases you say every day?
Bloody, ****e, Pint, One more Pint, Wanker, Give me one more pint B***, Hell
2. What are some uncommon phrases you don't say every day?
Elevator, Garbage
Lol, I'm not British.
EDIT: Sorry if my stereotypes offended any of you brits
Haha, I'm sincerely hope that our British forum users are not offended by this thread! As much as we poke fun at British English, I'm sure you guys find our American English just as funny!
One more question to be added for the brits!
Why do you guys add extra useless letters to your places names?
Eg. Leicester Square is pronounced "lester square" rather than like it's spelled (ie "le-sester square"). And Gloucester Road is pronounced "gloss-ter road" rather than "gl-ow-sester road".
Lol. For some reason this thread brought this quote to mind: "Austria! Well, then. G'day mate! Let's put another shrimp on the barbie!" Gotta love Dumb and Dumber.
No offense intended, just interested in the British peeps over here. Especially demon_man's phrase. What is that translated to american???
I find your questions offending. You have insulted Detroit. tsk. tsk. tsk. OMG! My Detroit home-bois! told me where I can go to get my line-up. Gonna look sexy again tomorrow!
1. What are common phrases you say every day?
I don't tend to say any phrases as such, I guess I am boring like that.
2. What are some uncommon phrases you don't say every day?
Garbage, Trash. (Its Rubbish....) I don't know. If I don't say them everyday, how am I going to remember them.
3. Why do you drive on the left side of the road?
Because this is the correct side to drive on, given a vast percentage of people are righties, it makes sense to always be able to have your strongest arm on the wheel? (My left arm dislocates at the shoulder quite often, so thats my excuse)
4. Do you all visit these..... places for phones?? This is a quote from Demon_Man, a british person
I find myself reguarly visiting Carphone Whorehouse to see what the latest stock is and avaliability. Sometimes you may have to pay a little more then other places, but I find it is often worth it.... I believe another term would be brothel?
Anymore questions?

I know this much: they (we) drive on the "wrong" side because of the Romans. They used to carry their weapons right hand while on horses and as they've gone past each other they could fight! The same principle applies today while going up and down stairs or on pavements.

People on radio interviews say "To be honest..." a lot, as if they never are the other times! They also say "I don't mean to be disrespectful but..." meaning exactly the opposite. Footballers also say "I have a calf..." or "I have an Achilles..." meaning they have something wrong with them. I then say "Really? when did you discover that? Mine were always there anyway." They also say "I mean..." a lot. The oldies say "Please!" and "Thank you" a lot. Footballers and other athletes always talk on the third person while talking about themselves. And they talk about the weather a lot.

So if the same princple applies today.... then your saying when you drive up and down roads in your cars, you carry a weapon in your right hand so you can fight other cars that pass you? Very interesting indeed!

What is wrong with my Car, this is what I drive on my days off!
I normally drive this during the week.
Serious question: Every car in that picture is a hatchback. Why are they so popular in Europe? My hypothesis is that the roads are narrower in town since the cities are older and were made for walking/horses/carts. So smaller cars are needed and these give the most bang for your buck.

Less space and less time spent in our cars, anything over an hour is considered a long drive here. And we don't need to compensate for anything...
