Better not suck. I’m counting on you Clint Eastwood. Come December 11th I’ll be in the theaters quicker than you can say jinglemeister, so this better be GOOD. I love rugby, I love South Africa, and I fucking love Matt Damon. Beat All Blacks…

What kind of bitch is this??? Who cares??? And just out of curiosity, why do you always provide your handle at the end of the bitches you write, when they’re supposed to be anonymous??
Dino: Why “Beat All Blacks”? Because I’m sure it’s not what it sounds like…
Leave Dino alone, scooby! She’s (apparently) an attractive female and can therefore get away with whatever she wants. On a side bitch, anyone else notice this? If you’re a hot girl, you can pretty much get away with anything? I’m not pointing out anything new, I know. At the same time I guess you also get harassed by every straight guy and lesbian wanting to get in your pants. Wanna go out some time, Dino? I’ll let you do A N Y T H I N G !
As for the movie, Matt Damon putting on a South African accent can never be good. They have a funny accent that’s difficult to imitate – like a cross between German and New Zealand, but perhaps softer. The most annoying accent on the planet though, by far, is the New Zealand accent (*shudders*). It’s like a more nasally, high-pitched Aussie accent that pierces right through your brain. Also, the only thing they have to go on about how they’re better than Aussies is rugby (a bit similar to Canadians with hockey). The Aussie cricket team always destroys the Kiwis though, plus Aussies’ real passion in most parts of the country isn’t rugby, but Aussie Rules Football, which is a kick-ass sport both to watch and to play. OYE OYE OYE!
Hey Dino, wanna go out some time? Let’s see Invictus so I can go on about how bad Matt Damon’s accent is!
‘nevermind’, it’s obvious that Dino is a huge racist and doesn’t like black people!
That, or “All Blacks” is the name for the New Zealand national rugby team. They perform an awesome traditional Maori dance called the Haka before each game which is kick ass and hopefully shown in this movie, which I’m going to see with Dino… right?
LMAO…racist..
I love that Dino puts her tag at the end of all her posts…I like that I know of her allergies and dislikes…lol.
And I can’t wait to see that movie! It won’t be for another week though, so please post your critic on LTWWB or LTWWL.
Thanks for the clarification qpmzwonxeibcruv. I figued it was something like that. I guess I’m just not a big enough rugby fan to know that 🙂
IN SA they’re not called blacks, they’re “blecks”…try saying it, you’ll see what I mean…
Hey qpwmanrhxwyxxzqwtyxxczqwyxxzqpmmbtwwxxz, you ever watch “Flight of the Conchords”….you’re spot on about the kiwi accent, watch FOTC, hilarious show about 2 kiwi musicians in NYC
It is a bit funny, especially if you don’t like the Kiwi rugby team and “hate All Blacks,” or if there’s a game between them and your rugby team, and you want your team to “kill All Blacks.” I’m sure this has been chanted in several stadiums in Australia over the years.
The All Black’s Haka is fucking intense and I hope they do a good one in the movie. Check it out (a little description at the bottom of this clip, too):

Do I smell desperation in the air?? 😛
FotC is great! I haven’t heard much of their recent stuff, but a Kiwi buddy of mine introduced me to them a few years ago before they became bigger here in North America. Apparently they had to either tone down or “North Americanize” their stuff for their audiences up here and it wasn’t quite as funny.
Yeah, I used to listen on the radio in the UK…it was pretty rude, the songs especially…but I find the TV show even funnier, just to finally see them.
Of course, as a Christ-ian, I don’t support watching pirate TV, but I hear you can watch just about anything here:

What the fuck are you all rambling about??
Sorry qpzomneicruv (sp?)…I’m taken.
@Scooby…I don’t have any reason NOT to provide my handle…It does say ”bitcher”.
Dino, you’re taken alright… out to dinner, by me!
How’s that? I’m practicing my cheesy pick-up lines for the bars tonight. Hopefully I won’t get beaten up by some Alehouse bouncers.
Remember also, Dino: what he doesn’t know won’t hurt him.
Maybe you’re right qpmz… but I hate that kind of girl you describe! Not ALL attractive females are like this either. Some actually make an effort not to be
that way, because they want to be judged on who they are rather than what they look like. Not providing my opinion on commenting Dino directly, just making a general observation.
That’s true Scooby, of course not all women are like this, but some of them can’t help being like that and really it’s us stupid guys who fall for it and let them get away with it. On the one hand I too hate it, but on the other, if they got it, why not use it? If I was hot, I would too. Unfortunately people can’t help being judged and judging other people on their looks. Humans are visual creatures. I do think that women have it easier though because they mainly just have to worry about what they look like when it comes to getting a guy, but for us, we have to look good, dress well, have personality, have a good job, know how to talk to girls, know how to dance, have a good wing man, etc. etc. It’s way harder for us! A woman just needs to not eat too many cheeseburgers, throw on some make-up, and she can get any man she wants.
I also feel bad for pretty girls who are nice because we men just won’t stop harassing them! I see this where I’m currently working all the time – they do not get left alone. Well, we could, but then we’d have absolutely no chance whatsoever if we don’t at least put some effort in (most of us guys, anyway).
If only a hot super-model could just fall into my lap. *SNAP *SNAP!
Nope, nothing yet.
At least she’s not bitching about a dude at work coming on to her and how hard life is when you’re an attractive female.
So THAT’s refreshing…
I definetly see your point of enjoying being hot, qpmz…but I’m pretty sure this is possible without “using it’ in the way we’re talking about lots of girls using it. You can have fun with your looks without basing your entire identity on it. Good looks are a nice thing, but don’t get you far if you’re an idiot…and they fade. Look at the rich guys who “use it’- most girls that a guy would genuinely want to be with are turned off by the bragging about the 4 bmw’s parked in his garage and how his family owns a particular airline’s racehorses. Yuck, no thanks. And who wants a shallow, money-grubbing ho for any length of time beyond one or two nights? It’s gross, and whenever a guy has used his wealth as a reason to be with him, well that garbage doesn’t fly.
True, DGAF! Guess we should be grateful!
I like people who don’t know how good looking they are.
You mean like Stevie Wonder?
Oh Frosty…wow. Just waooooo.
I don’t know what you guys are insinuating, but I would just like to take the oppurtunity to say….I am the furthest thing from a dumb bitch. I eat dem fo brehkfust.
🙁
Not me, Dino…I rarely (if ever) call anyone dumb, or a bitch….I just let them show it…
😉
YES exactly like Stevie Wonder!
Also good looking people who don’t really see themselves as all that good looking.
Or good looking people who grew up ugly.
How did we shift from rugby to good looks/lack thereof? A+ digression!
Because you signed your bitch and qpmz thinks you’re apparently an attractive female because you compare yourself to ellen page a lot.
looks like Ellen Page? Wait, I thought Dino meant she was a lesbian 😉
Not really…
Wow. I suddenly hate you all.
I am a now attractive female who grew up ugly as fack. I really only use my looks at clubs because who really wants to pay like $5 per shitty little drink? I sure don’t :D. And what kind of guy takes one look at a girl or maybe talks to them for 30 seconds and offers them a drink? An idiot and/or someone who wants this chick to get really loaded so they’re easier? So yeah, I don’t feel bad about that. I will actually say to every guy, “I have a boyfriend” because I do, and they still seem to think there’s something about them that’s so irresistible. HAAAH. Also, it’s the same kind of guys who would make fun of me in school ;).
Oh, as for the movie, I hope it will be awesome and not like the standard sports movie where there’s like…over-coming of things and what not. I’m sure it is though.
One day melectric, you may take that drink
from a stranger (cause “who wants to pay $5?”), and it will have a roofie/GHB/mickey in it, and your ass is gonna wake up in an alley in Atlantic City, and it’ll be this big and won’t close…
Buy your own drinks child…
Hang on… Dino’s a lesbian? Awesome. And Dino, I have actually talked more about sports than anything and anyone else here but that part has all been ignored! Don’t say I didn’t try.
Frosty, I bet Stevie didn’t see that one coming… hahahahaha. Terrible.
I meant thespian Dino – cause Ellen is a great actress and I am sure you are too 😉
Ps – DONT HATE!
I NEVER SAID I WAS A LESBIAN
It’s true, Ellen Pageneres is a known Thespian.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
I get them at the bar Frosty, where I see them made and get put directly into my hands! I’m not stupid! 19 years of my mom and dad’s obsessive paranoia has sure rubbed off on me ;). Not that that’s always good :P. So sorry, your little fantasy won’t happen. Ooops. I jinxed myself :(.
i think i love this girl,cute hey.hey q,trying hard again are we,me too.
oh,and by the way,saw invictus a week ago.not bad,but not his best,jusdge for yourselves.
