Actually that's correct. All aspects of using water during a drought under a 'water-ban' is basically being heavily restricted. Which DOES include watering the lawn, washing the car, laundry, and shower length. You get penalized if you use too much. It's nuts!

Ash: The Sahara (Arabic: الصحراء الكبرى‎, Aṣ-Ṣaḥrā´ al-Kubrā, "The Great Desert") Sahara, means desert in Arabic.

EDIT: Okay, 'water ration' not ban. But at least it doesn't sound as silly as banning hosepipes. Is it illegal to own one if it is banned?

[Ash0011]

yes but that's in arabic we're speaking english in which the sahara is a large desert somewhere... we're not sure where we just know it's very big and probably has some ruins in it
in dictionary.com

a desert in N Africa, extending from the Atlantic to the Nile valley. about 3,500,000 sq. mi. (9,065,000 sq. km).

[Cynder]

That's pretty mad, can't imagine that! Then again, it's rare we ever have serious droughts so I wouldn't know.

Yeah, but if you just said 'Sahara' you're referring to the name of the specific desert and not deserts in general - that's why it means desert in Arabic and not English xD

[Mew Master]

But if you call it the Sahara Desert, and you translate it all out, it means "The Great Desert Desert" Which is redundant.

...

And please tell me you DO know where the Sahara is...

[Cynder]

But if you just say sahara you could be referring to the computer brand or something? Idk, it's like the actual meaning of the word kangaroo. Doesn't make much sense when you translate it, but it's something we've come to know.

[Ash0011]

well considering the definition has the location pretty much spelled out
and the only language really used in translation is latin, because its a dead language

[Mew Master]

Not aware of a Sahara computer brand, so whenever I talk about the northern region of Africa that gets less rain than my area of the Midwest, it's Sahara.

[Ash0011]

why are me and oslo the only people who ever use smileys
are we just cooler than everyone else
any who anyone else play minecraft?

[Mew Master]

Nah, I already lost most of my Life to WoW, and now LoL, I don't need a third addiction to work out and go into withdraws.

[ChobiChibi]

Kinda in the middle of a Portal binge. If ya can't tell XP Fucking turret.

[Ash0011]

[ChobiChibi]

I wouldn't rely on Yahtzee for all your gaming reviews. Yes he is funny, but just not quite... Y'know... Too many metaphors XD

And I'm not playing Portal 2 I'm playing the Advance Maps on Portal, just cos I can.

<3 Wheatley.

[RaZoR LeAf]

This is what I think of when I hear 'Sahara', but that's because I work there.

I don't think Zero-Punctuation can be classed as a review anymore than someone standing in the streets yelling about 'those damn foreigners' can be classed as a political statement on immigration. Yes, they are both hilarious to watch and listen too, but their just the stubborn opinions of one man who has a very limited set of ideals.

[ChobiChibi]

Aha, my brother and his gf work/worked at go outdoors. In fact, a tent from there is currently hanging on our washing line trying to get "dry" after the weekend.

[Ash0011]

I know zp isn't a "correct" review but it's funnier than most internet media so I just go with it and don't listen to the review so much as the description of the gameplay

[Rossymore]

Portal 2 and Minecraft? Pfft, here I am playing Populous 3 and Pokemon Yellow.
I don't even own a PS3, just got a PS2.

I've got a 3DS...

[ChobiChibi]

I'm jelly of your yellow. My bro had it, between us we had a level 64 Pikachu and all the rest were just about scraping their 20's if they were lucky. But it got stolen.

Also jelly of your PS2. Mine, again, was stolen. When you go to Uni, Rossy, make sure your student house has locks on your bedroom doors. And/or contents insurance. You won't regret it.

[Rossymore]

Well, I'll be honest, the physical cartridge is in the clutches of my dastardly friend...so...I'm using a ROM.

But I know the feeling...this is not the first PS2 I've owned...it's not too bad as I've obtained most of the games I had, but I was close to finishing Bomberman Hardball. But not anymore.

I will make sure to keep an eye on it, though. I have got quite a few games on it.

[Blademaster]

I wouldn't rely on Yahtzee for all your gaming reviews. Yes he is funny

No he isn't.

Topic Derail:

WHOO! Kiashkiklah is finished! Here!

We Now return you to your regularly scheduled chaos.

[Ash0011]

I was just thinking about the storyline of the pokemon tv show and game and I have a prediction,
Alder will retire and Drayden will take over leaving Iris in charge of the gym, cilan will stay with her and Ash will be rejoined by Brock
also they're remaking ruby and sapphire to be released a bit after the new bw games
if any of these come true I'm gonna be surprised but still

[DarkestLight]

Im soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo drunk. Irrresponsibility alert! Im BANNING THE BANNED FOLKS! NNANANANA BOO BOO~ WHOOO HOT FIYAA!

[Ash0011]

[Mew Master]

Nothing wakes you up like a hot cup of DL-Drunkeness to make you firgure out what the hell he's talking about...

[DarkestLight]

You still haven't figured it out?

Not like I have either, but still....

[Oslo]

RL's SZ thread title just made me lol.

As did Rossy's when I first saw it, for that matter.

Well done, gents. *salute*

I think when my Master's thesis is bound in September I'm going to tack on a little preface blaming its shitty quality on the fact that ASB consistently distracted me all summer long. Because that's how I see the next four months going.

Well, that's good for us, good/bad for you. :3

[Rossymore]

Oh summer. I'll be spending you packing up my stuff and trying to figure out what to take to Uni. I can't take all my toys!!!

Though 3DS and PS2 are definitely coming with. Wouldn't have it any other way!

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Hopefully I can tour UK in late Summer. Yup, that'd be awesome.

[ChobiChibi]

Rossy, take as little as possible! Pack up all your DVD's and disk games into one of them CD wallet things (I got a huge one from Ikea for not a lot) because you'll end up coming back with more than double the stuff you started with! And watch out with yer PS2. You have to get a TV lisence if you live in halls. And they do check.

You still ain't told me where you're going to study! And what!

YES MUGGLES. YES. THAT MUST HAPPEN K?

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Hope so. Hope I can get the cash. And I'll make sure to stop by in Bristol for sexy piece of ass, mmkay. BUT DON'T EXPECT PLUSHIES!

[ChobiChibi]

I'll make it worth your while, babes

I might not be in Bristol though. But we'll sort that shit out nearer the time >>

[Rossymore]

Oh I'll be going to Worcester Uni to study English Literature. Have I not already said so?

[DarkestLight]

You've only said it right now :O

[ChobiChibi]

Worcester is all the way up there! D: And yay! A creative degree! They're the best.

I got a letter from the student loans company saying I owe them £20,000. Good luck, Rossy XP
