Vegemite... Eeeeehhhh...

Anything ending in "mite" is not meant for human consumption [:-]

What about marmite?

No one really eats vegimite , do they? Isn't that just a nasty trick Aussies play on non-Aussies? [:D][&:][X(]

The traditional "ethnic delicacy" joke [:D]
some people eat anchovies. and some people eat gravlox. and vegimite is pretty good on a piece of bread. I think it is better than haggis that would make me get very sich.

Indeed! Like Phillipino Ballut, Chamorro fruit bat and soft shelled crabs! [:D]

And Haggis... I've been trying to come up with a Danish "delicacy" that would fit this traditional joke, but I can't think of one... Guess we're just too good at that too...[:'(]

Exactly

Vegemite
Marmite
Dynamite
Dust Mite

You wouldn't want to eat any of these, the word "mite" is a warning [:D]

The trick to eating haggis is to drink single malt scotch with it. A WHOLE LOT OF SINGLE MALT SCOTCH. In fact , the more you drink, the better the haggis tastes. Just before you pass out , the haggis becomes "not too bad". [:D]

speaking of lyrics........forgot those vague wierd Aussies


(now is the onlt thing that's real)

binge, cringe, cringe, binge, sloppy
binge, cringe,
(the police used to watch over the people,
now they're watching the people)
sloppy, mincing, eyedropping, biopsy.
cyclops overlooks optic options.
rotton, showstopper, skinpopper.
babbler dabbler.
self confessed criminal.
tore pen in vain.
instant, still spellbound.
game stock, talk back rock.
reencounter incident.
subsistance is inexistant.
(now is the onlt thing that's real)
non committed, unwitted, oblivious.
habitual resistor.
roughed up edge, fluent nudge, pre-collect ignition.
motivation inexistant.

wasted views,
thats all they see blue,
hot blood, guilt, optic nerve.
with the right attitude you will succed, blue.
self abusive recluse, too late for me.
make shifting peace unsettling.
crazy...doing crazy things.
keep your eyes open, soft spoken changes nothing.
a view so cruel.
(a few)

dogs body comatose, torchlight roast.
disinterest. disinfect.
retold, impressed by possession.
insiders know, refresh, detained contest.
all that is pure, sure tonight, freeze in time.
shadows climb, distracting override.
instincts evolve, over and over.
why cant you see this?

(do you, don't you want me to make you?
coming down fast but don't let me brake you.
only tell me tell me the answer.
you may be a lover but you aint no dancer)

wasted truth.
why call it all, blue?
hot lines.
eventual decline.
with the right attitude you will succed, blue.
resent that discontent.
sidestep.
define the state of things so far.
crazy things, soft spoken..overide.
with your eyes open, you know soft spoken changes nothing.
a view so cruel.
nothing.

view so cruel
view so cruel
you so cruel
view so cruel
a view so cruel
a view so cruel
(..so cruel)

try and take over, over the fringe.
sloppy, eyesore, rotten, showstopper, skinpopper.
a babbler and dabbler.
oh, change, change!
nothing.
nothing, so, no, nothing.
go, down.
go.

(now is the only thing thats real)

And then it got real quiet, real quickly.

Been playing around with SpringSharp, simming an IJN battleship for my mod. It's probably a good thing I wasn't a battleship designer...[:D]

It's pretty cool to mess around with, I always seem to create some inprobable monstrosity with terrible sea-keeping [:D]

That was my initial result too, and I have no idea how I fixed it. Maybe I should just stick to guessing at it in the AE editor...[:D]

I think my problem was usually too much topweight from AA weapons [:D] There is a similar programme somewhere which also creates a rough graphical presentation of your creation.

I'm trying to find it again, I did build a few creations using it to get a rough idea of how it would look and then make a proper art set for it. It let you choose all sorts of random things, like transom or cruiser sterns or whether the ship would have a British style knuckled bow.

I always loved the superstructures of British ships designed in the 1930s. They look so reassuringly solid.
