Where can i download a very useful & working trainer for Sacred game? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ashprabha007 ( talk • contribs) 02:09, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
I can't access the site from my current location due to a restrictive proxy, but I'd wager Cheat Happens would have what you are looking for, and the game is old enough that it shouldn't require a subscription to download the trainer. Gunrun ( talk) 09:09, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
- Also GameCopyWorld] is pretty safe and reliable. — Akrabbim talk 12:46, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
(Moved from article talk space) I think its a country song, but its called "SLOW DOWN". The song goes from a slow beat to a quick beat. Some of the lyrics in it are "ALL WORK AND NO PLAY", "NEED TO SMELL THE ROSES BEFORE I WAKE UP SIX FEET DEEP". Anybody know? TheEgg44 ( talk) 10:49, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
It was produced in 2001/2002 , and the lyrics are:" I'm looking through those ...... ? oooohh " , these are the only vocals in the song, and this is trance / techno song , and also largely instrumental. Probably an remix but im not sure. 217.171.212.143 ( talk) 13:47, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
Recently read this joke somewhere. But failed to catch it's meaning. Read it. Can someone please tell me what the hell it means :
A championship competition is held to see who has the largest prick in the world. The theater is filled with people and the gays are screaming with excitement. Up in front sit the judges. First a Russian comes on stage. He is enormous and the applause is loud. The judges measure him and there is more applause. Next a black man comes on stage. He is huge and loud applause sounds through the theater. Then an Italian and a Japanese come forward. Both are measured and receive standing ovations. The excitement of the crowd is mounting when a dwarf suddenly appears on stage. Everyone whistles and yells for him to leave. But the dwarf raises one arm in the air and asks for silence. Then when all is quiet, he opens his fly and takes out a turtle, shouting, "Just a minute folks... this is just a crab!"
Jon Ascton (talk) 16:47, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
P.S. I am still looking for a satisfatory answer to my this question
- By crab he means that is merely one of his crab lice. Shantavira| feed me 16:56, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
- In other words, if he's got a louse the size of a turtle growing in his pubic hair, his schwantz must be proportionally larger as well. Its just a bad "big dick" joke. -- Jayron 32 20:38, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
- Even more significantly, is this the first joke in which a Japanese person has a large penis? Adam Bishop ( talk) 21:41, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
- My grandma told better dick jokes than this one. — Kevin Myers 06:50, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
- Where did you get this joke? 174.3.102.6 ( talk) 23:17, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
- Somewhere where gay people are referred to as "the gays". I don't know where that would be in this century.

- Really? How would you have refereed to the homosexuals portion in a large crowd of males?

- If I needed to, and I seriously doubt I would, I would refer to them as gay men. In this case, the audience is not specified as 'male', so I see no reason to assume the crowd is not diverse in terms of gender. Still, if I needed to specify that it was only the gay people who were screaming (why this should be, I don't know), I would call them 'gay people'. 86.166.148.95 ( talk) 21:14, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

There seems to be some confusion between crabs and turtles. Crabs are decapod crustaceans of the infraorder Brachyura. Turtles are reptiles of the order Testudines (the crown group of the superorder Chelonia). Bus stop ( talk) 17:02, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
- No, I think it was a turtle. Read it again and suspend your disbelief about the sizes of ... things. (I can't believe I'm in this thread, when I've sworn on the graves of all my ancestors that I will never be party to explaining a joke. But there you go.) -- JackofOz ( talk) 20:15, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
OT, but I find the funniest part of the joke the gays screaming. 174.3.102.6 ( talk) 03:10, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
In my part of the world a sort of stage show performed either by a single performer or a team is called mimicry. An instance of it is seen here. Skip the beginning to go right into the performance. It is very popular and a major item on local television. I see Mimic (entertainment) but don't think it is anything like the form I mentioned. Is there a stage performance similar to this anywhere in the world?-- 117.204.92.11 ( talk) 17:26, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
- Are you thinking of Impressionist (entertainment)? — Akrabbim talk 17:52, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
In football, when a team scores, they sometimes play a ska-ish song. I'm thinking it's possibly by the Bad Manners but could someone give me the name of the song? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.0.245.212 ( talk) 19:02, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
- You're gonna have to be a great deal more specific than that! UK? Association Football? What grounds in particular? Having said that, the one that comes to mind is Tom Hark by
The Piranhas. --

- The IP address locates to London, so it's likely to be
football rather than, say,
the armoured sissies' game. One ska-type song that is apparently played at certain football grounds is the
Harry J Allstars' "
Liquidator".

- That likely developed out of its use in the film
Fever Pitch (unless it was used in the film because it's used at football matches, of course).
Grutness...
wha?
22:13, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
- It seems much more likely that the use in the film refers to the existing use at matches. A read of the articles adds to my feeling. 86.166.148.95 ( talk) 21:36, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

I watched a 1 hour documentary on the flq. This was 2001 or something. I think it's a CBC documentary. Pierre Trudeau sticks his middle finger. I can't find the footage anywhere. Does anyone have the link or the documentary? 174.3.102.6 ( talk) 23:10, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
- Well, I can't find the specific video, but it certainly is a famous incident, so much so that Trudeau salute redirects to Finger (gesture). That article cites the specific time and location of the original Trudeau Salute, so it will give you a start on when and where to look. -- Jayron 32 00:15, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
