PS i heard the pomes comin to Oz turn tomatoes or pomme d'amours in french BWAHAHA POMME D'AMOURS! THE APPLES OF LOVE!! my best find ever i just discovered the origin and essence of the pommies

I have read that 5 times and still have no idea what the fuck it means!!

You must have some good drugs over there Surt!

[Gix11]

He's basically saying that most Poms that come to Aus get burnt to shit; hence they turn into tomatoes, then he decided that the acronym POM was actually very similar sounding to the french word for apple which is Pomme (conincidentally pronounced pom) and added the D'amour which in French means Love but when added to Pomme (as in Pomme D'amour) is what they call Toffee Apples. Now he's decided that the origin of Pom was actually Aussie's calling them Toffee Apples.

That is today's translation lesson concluded. Thank you. I'll be here most of the week.

[LKC73]

Jesus, Si, glad you knew what he wrote! lol

[nick76]

Nah....i reckon Si is on the same drugs as Surt!!
lol

[oldskool]

You all got it wrong Surt is a rusky drug.

[Surt]

yup i sent a bit to Si hows it comin mate? hahaha!

i meant that in russian we call a tomato "tomat" from english, but most often "pomidor" from french or spanish fuck knows! but hell yeah, not "pomme d'amour" but "pomme d'or" "golden apple"

[Chase]

...... how's your bike going Pete?

[Shadowzone]

Pom is short for Pomegranate which is a bright red (similar to the colour of the skin of burnt Poms on hols at Bondi) fruit.

But I do like the Toffee Apple thing. That's funnier.

[Surt]

yup i know the pomegranades, another nice version as well
btw pom or pome is a false acronym

[Gix11]

I was always told it was Prisoner Of the Motherland. Considering I've been called it for many years I had to research it. Never heard the pomegranate one before? Interesting.

Got me thinking so i checked Wikipedia (dangerous, I know) but found this:

Pommy

The term pommy, pom or pomme, in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, commonly denotes a person of British (usually of English heritage) origin. A derogatory term, it was controversially ruled no longer offensive in 2006 by the Australian Advertising Standards Board and in 2010 by the New Zealand Broadcasting Standards Authority.[1] Despite these changing views, many British people or those of British origin consider the expression offensive or racist when used by people not of British origin to describe English or British people, yet acceptable when used within that community: for example, the community group British People Against Racial Discrimination was among those who complained to the Advertising Standards Board about five advertisements poking fun at "Poms", prompting the 2006 decision.[2]

The origin of this term is not confirmed and there are several persistent false etymologies. The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) strongly supports the theory that pommy originated as a contraction of "pomegranate".[3] The OED also suggests that the reason for this is that pomegranate is extinct Australian rhyming slang for immigrant; it cites an article from 14 November 1912, in a once-prominent Australian weekly magazine The Bulletin: "The other day a Pummy Grant (assisted immigrant) was handed a bridle and told to catch a horse." A popular alternative explanation for the theory that pommy is a contraction of "pomegranate", relates to the purported frequency of sunburn among British people in Australia, turning their fair skin the colour of pomegranates.[4] However, there is no hard evidence for the theory regarding sunburn. Another unofficial explanation is that P.O.M. stands for 'Prisoner of Millbank ' or that P.O.H.M.E. stands for 'Prisoner of Her Majesty's Exile'. However, the OED states that there is no evidence for these terms or abbreviations being used and that they are an unlikely source. Historian Richard Holt maintains the origin of the term comes from English cricket tours of Australia where the English gentlemen amateurs would drink Pommery Champagne in preference to Australian beer.[5]

Pete, I don't mean to be a ball breaker, but is it possible to reduce the size of your signature. It's starting to give me the shits seeing the same pic (which is not small) over and over in every thread.

Don't mean this in a bad way mate, i think banner signatures are cool, but this is over the top

Well said Greko, and the ducts look all types of Gay even more so because you like them!
They look like the ugly standard bit you would remove first to make your bike look better.

[mozza]

my thought exactly Oldskool, but they probably suit Pete well:p

comon Pete, bite !! you know you want to rant !

,here you go ,dylan, a number you need to call
life line 13 11 14 they care

as for the banner ,,i pay for the right ,,

[pav69]

will you be able to use your new air scoops for anything if you turbo pete?

[Cruisecontrol]

You really are a cretin.
Somebody politely asks you to make a small change for the benefit of the entire board, and you predictably respond like the 12yr old simpleton that you are.
Congratulations, you are the first on my ignore list...

[xa-mont]

manifold cooling :P

I agree on the sig. picture... shits me to tears.

[wackyrider]

,here you go ,dylan, a number you need to call
life line 13 11 14 they care

as for the banner ,,i pay for the right ,,

I pay for my visa, hence the right to be in this country, but that doesn't mean that I should be an arrogant asshole, just because I can. I can piss in the street in the middle of the city, but I don't because I am civilised. I just asked politely, so calm down princess.

As Cruisecontrol said, there is the ignore button on this new version of the site, so if you want to exercise your right to put up a big fuck off banner, as you stated you have every right. However if I wanted to watch the same thing over and over again until I go crazy, I'll just sit at home and watch re-runs of some crappy movie over and over again until I feel sick.

So feel free, I just thought I'd point it out in a polite manner as I know for a fact that I was the only one thinking it.

Too bad you needed to overreact.

I am a very understanding and polite person (as a general rule) so there was no need to be rude.

[mozza]

Pete, overreact !!!!!

You must have the wrong person ;)

[oldskool]

,here you go ,dylan, a number you need to call

Did they help you Pete? Dunlops and tucked in T getting you down?
Or did your Ching Pow Ho not want to sucky fucky Fat Bogan round eye?
Im glad you chose the cheaper option, the phone call costs alot less than a trip to Asia to find a friend to talk to.
Do I need to cut and paste your face book reply about the gold member shit?
You have payed for the right but there is no need to rub peoples noses in it this just makes people think you are an even bigger tosser.
Once again Well Said CRUISECONTROL!

cool down blokes now asf is startin to remind me some fuckin siberian orcs' moot bahaha not really funny tho!

[Gix11]

Sorry Pete, had to remove your sig pic mate. The system says it limits them to 200 pixels high but it must not be working as yours was nearly 400. Can you make one a little smaller mate as your level permits 600 wide by 200 high and I have no idea why it isn't controlling it. I'll have to ask Callan. The Mouse thing was dominating the whole forum. Cheers mate.

He's trying to re word "Know you are said you are, but what am I" the week among us do that.
When it really worries you the first thing to come from your mouth is "That doesn't worry me" its pretty basic psychology, Pavlov I think.
Sorry Pete (psychology) is a study of the mind, Pavlov was a head doctor from a long time ago who studied basic dog behaviour I thought the quote was quite fitting.

Am trying to work out what headlight unit to fit ,the Kawasaki 1 is very bulky, the Vrod unit is a lot sleeker,
"Hey Jock" it looks like your Trumpy is getting the kwaka set up Gov.

[BANDITROD]

in my opinion pete the vrod one without the shroud maybe can you get a pic of it on there without the shroud

[RevHead]

I will tonight Rod, Imight cut the Vrod shroud down a little

[Gitzy]

I'm loving the VROD one WITH the Shroud Pete.. But in my opinion I'd..

*Keep the VROD with Shroud Light
*Keep the Scoops
*Keep the Belly Pan
*Change the tail to something with smoother lines with a sleek ally subframe
*Change the front fender
*Paint it a deep dark colour
*Go to OfficeWorks and buy a $99 12 mp Camera :p
Just my 2 Cents Mate..Otherwise good work.

[El_Hefty]

Or maybe gloss orange gt stripes over a matt carcol grey?? Or even a matt orange with gloss white stripes or visa versa??

Aye Pete, what ever happen to those piston gauge surounds you built up they were sweet.

I recon if you mounted the headlight low enough you could mount them over the top of it.
