What a bizarre thread!! I go away for a week and this is what happens....
Anyway, my question. After spending a week in Malta, and when waiting to be served on food stalls etc. and having folk pushing in and generally not queueing for things, - is it just the British that queue for things? Does 'Johnny Foreigner' have an aversion to waiting their turn? I was very tempted on a couple of occasions to forget my non-violent nature and physically throw these interlopers to the back of the queue.
Am I being too British?

@plasmadog our friend @jojo is not that far off the mark, what i'd recommend is 2 Esato accounts (apparently it goes on - schizos). Plasmadog for your 'lad' posts and create a new one for your girley/fluffy posts, the name of which I recommend to be an abbreviation of your firstname then the letter L for loves then the initials of your girlfriend. eg MikLSP and show her your lovey dovey posts

@plasmadog - Hypnotism is the key (maybe @masseur can post a link). Call it a new relaxation technique and once she’s under your control set your avatar as the trigger to do some housework, so the next time she takes a peek she’ll be turning on her heels and getting the ironing board out it’s a guaranteed win win situation my man. Peace for you and a sharp shirt for the morning. Good luck.

@sammy, hope you had a good holiday (save the pics – please ) There’s nothing wrong with being polite especially to young ladies as it makes the queue view more pleasant. However, if it’s a kid give them the back of your hand if it’s a bloke ask them ‘does it say walk this way on my back’ (choose the appropriate language) and when they take a look and reply ‘no’ take one step forward. Sometime a fight is the only way to resolve these queue jumpers (more so at ski resorts!!)

@mince I'll bear that in mind, although I suspect the police will take a dim view of me punching people for queue jumping.
I think if I say to one of these queue jumpers 'oi! the queue starts back here!!' he will give me one of those 'you've just dropped out of a dog's bottom' looks

@sammy_boy - Filipinos don't queue in line! We have all the impossibles here in Manila - "Only In Th Philippines" ! I guess Americans queue as well, same as with British/Britons!
@mince_inside - 'Bout my last 'Q' (friend's request) . . . gift for a girl who has it all? . . . |

@jojo, this 'friend' the gift depends on what he wants:
Just to stalk: Underwear
Shag and move on: 24 hrs in a posh hotel
A couple of shags: Chocs and flowers are a good foundation

Sammy, the best way to deal with queue jumpers is simple, bitch slap them until they submit and start crying. The q-jumpers are arrogant, and think they are better than you because you are just a "Helmut Foreigner" to them. Show them that we are all equal by giving them a good hard back-hander and stomping on their feet.

jojo: Your "friend" has a thousand U.S. dollars to blow on a present? She already has everything? Buy her something cheap but sentimental, and blow the lot on hookers, beer, and charlie!
plasmadog: Whats she doing near your computer anyway? Relationships are all about sharing and giving, but there must be a line drawn somewhere! Its YOUR account, YOUR forum, tell her to back off! If she wants to be on esato, tell her to create her own account! Then buy some flowers to show you aint upset with her. The secret here is to be kindly, but you must be firm!

@mince-inside & metylated_spirit - Many thanks for the advise mates, I told my friend 'bout your opinions . . . and he told me to 'leave' esato at once (tehehehehe) - just kidding here as always! Yup, something sentimental, I guess, he'll give her an SE S700 when it is already out here in Manila, that is, if it does not go more than a grand US dollars! What is that - 'charlie' mate ? Is that the old 'cologne' of the 70's, similar with those of Jovan and Old Spice?
@methylated_spirit - Just wonderin' here mate . . . what is it with @plasmadog that has to be 'firm' with/against her girlfriend? |

jojo, charlie is...erm...well..its what you are going to call the Springer spaniel you buy with the money!
He has to be firm on this issue because if he's not, she will walk all over him for the rest of his life!
