Two years ago the good proces were in the 60s, highest was like 75 cents. But... 27 cents? Sounds like the 60s or 70s to me.

Well, if you actually READ what i wrote, i said the gas war in Vancouver, and you my friend, dont live in Vancouver. The prices were as low as 27 cents 2 years ago. ( the lowest it got was 27 cents, and it was like that for a day or two, but it mainly hovered in the late 30's early 40's.)

Dont tell me im wrong when i live here.

Thank you, and good day.

EDIT: I also miss when people wernt so uptight and politically correct about everything. That makes me mad now. You cant even say "Indian" because its racist. well, what of the baseball team then, huh?

I didn't say you were wrong, ass. I was just saying.. 27 is pretty damned low. You guys were lucky.

Also I miss when online communities were cool and not overrun by n00bs (vampyr knows what I'm talking about) who spammed. Read: pre-Typhoid GameTavern.

You can say Indian without being racist... when referring to someone who's from India. They're Indian. The only reason why we refer "Natives" as "Indians" is because whoever the dumbass who saw them first thought he was in India, when really it was north America.

Why don't you ask a Native person if they like being called Indian? It' offensive.

LOL... i like how you snuck in "ass" it was classy and funny.

And what im doing isnt reeally spamming. And i doubt im a "n00b" ( as you put it) anymore, maybe i am, its no big deal to me.

And im part "Native American" ( 1/8 or something, but it still counts

) and i could care less, honestly. I was making a connection to it and political correctness.

And then according to you, the Cleveland Indians should change their logo, becauise it doesnt depict an Indian from India, its a Native American.

And that "Dumbass" was Columbus..

And i will ask a native person.

Typhoid: " Hey Sean, how do you like being called Indian"
Typhoid: " well Sean, i could care less"

Done and Done.

Now if someone called a Native American a "Chug" or "Squat" I could see why its offensive then.

And yes, i relaise now you didnt say i was wrong. I read what you said wrong. I apologize good freind.

Crono · 08-16-2004, 08:28 PM

I was only joking about the pre-Typhoid thing, really I could care less who posts here and what they post.

As for Natives, in modern times like these you still shouldnt call them Indians. I mean, you KNOW what an Indian is now, and you know what a Native American is... just call them Natives. That's what I do anyway. And you're only part Native, that doesn't count.

I miss 7 Up Gum and MST3K. I also miss the days when the Chicago Blackhawks were good.

Speaking of hockey, I also miss the days when Canada had the Winnipeg Jets and Quebec Nordiques, and they were awesome teams. Instead of 6 crappy teams who've never won the cup in the past decade and probably won't win it again in NHL history.

Also I miss when the NHL wasnt filled with all these retarded new teams like Columbus, Atlanta, Minnesota (I know there was once a Minnesota... but still), among others. The NHL was better 10 years ago than what it is now.

Bite your toungue my friend.

The Canucks, do have the best chance out of any Canadian team to win the cup. The Canucks and Senators.

I predict, within the next 5 years, eitehr the Canucks or the Senators will have won a cup.

The reason i say the Canucks is because they have been getting increasingly better over the past 5 or 6 years. With the exception of last year in points, but we did win the division.

And the Sens have a good shot at it now too, with Hasek in net, although hes old, hes still good.

*cough*

Im done ranting..

I typed it in on a word translator, and got "Scandanavian"....but that cant be right...

I remember my dad saying it has something to do with a house or something, thats why the logo was a house...

The House is also in the shape of an "N" for "Nordique"

Ahhhh....good old Nostalgia.....

*runs off and playes NHL '94*

I miss when the Chicago BULLS were good. I also miss the days where Chicago would come to Vancouver to kick the Grizzlies' asses; those games were always sold out.

The lowest I remember gas here was only 29 cents.
