The songs have the crazy guitar/cymbals Weezer sound, but hardly any of them have a unique feel. "Island in the (...) (23 years ago, 17-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: American tries Vegemite (Was Re: Latest Garage Sale FOTW)
 
(...) Ok all you members of the 'Vegemite Haters Campaign'... hahaha Vegemite is indeed something you have to be brought up on. I have eaten it all my life so it's nothing new to me but it is something that you have to spread lightly as you can't (...) (23 years ago, 16-May-01, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Lego PC Case
 
I've seen the web page where someone built a PC's case out of bricks - and that was pretty cool, even if I can't recall who that person is (sorry!). I don't know if anyone has posted this before, but here's another idea - too bad it didn't work (...) (23 years ago, 16-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  American tries Vegemite (Was Re: Latest Garage Sale FOTW)
 
(...) Well, I like it! Don't get me wrong-- I'd take chocolate over Vegemite any day. But it isn't bad at all. The first time I must've put too much on because it was incredibly salty. So next time I used less and went with unsalted butter. And I (...) (23 years ago, 16-May-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) When I saw the news it was like waking up next to a Vogon: unexpected in a horrible way. I'm glad I came up with the crew of the "Heart of Gold" a few weeks ago, I don't think I'd have the heart for it now. --DaveL (23 years ago, 15-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
