I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong. You know what will cure that? My special sticky buns. One lick of my sticky buns and your appetite will come right back. ~ RIP Mr. Borgnine  01/24/1917 - 07/08/2012  :'(

I'm pissed that Australia has special regulations for hoses.  What the heck makes Australian hoses special that they need their own regulations?  ???

I will probably regret this but I agree with Damfino  ::) ... the hoser sounds like a "special hoser"

Got home from work and the first thing I see is a rack of carbs from my youngest sons cbr600 spread out on the kitchen table along with the smell of gasoline. Yep my youngest is home from college for Christmas break but I'm not pissed, instead I'm happy to see my kid again.

Oh forgot to mention, I'm pissed that he stinks the house up with gas but still expects me to smoke my cigarette outside so I don't stink up the house. And that's another thing, getting my butt to quit smoking is really pissing me off. :)

I've noticed in recent times that there's fish and prawns advertised for sale as "Wild Caught"
It's been really pissin' me off that I can't work out WTF a "Wild Caught" fish or prawn is because I always thought that they were all wild.

Then I got to thinking that maybe it means that the fella who catches them is a bit wild. Hmmm - still pissed off.

So I headed off to the fish shop to ask the fella in there.
"skuse me mate, WTF is a wild caught fish - Please Explain"

Well, all I got was a pissed off look from this fella.
After a bit more cross examining on this subject, this fella gets really pissed off and tells me to piss off.

So, to this day, I still don't know WTF a wild caught fish is.
I might go back and ask him if he has any Tame Caught fish or maybe any Tame Caught Croc steaks.

That'll piss him off and I reckon that I'll get told to piss off again.  ;D

My knee dragger wannabe kid decided to put a 3 brothers exhaust on his f3 cbr600 as if it wasn't fast enough already. Doesn't sound any different however the headers scavenge differently than the factory headers plus different dia tubes has thrown the carbs way off, it went from really sweet with the factory headers to having a serious flat spot in the power band with the new exhaust. My nephew who's a cbr whiz recommended a jet kit which isn't cheap and that has my kid pissed off at the moment.

I put a V&H and a Dynojet stage 1 kit in my F2 and it livened the bike up, but the thought of a loud exhaust now pisses me off. ;D

I don't think you blokes are pissed off at all, I think you're just having a chat, which really pisses me off!  >:(

OK, here I am, a hard working Aussie taxpayer, home after a hard couple of hours (don't tell the boss, but I pissed off from work early today, for the fourth time this week.......) slog at the ol' salt mine, half drunk (a mate retired today, so I had to go to his piss-up) and tired.

There's nothing I like better when I get home on heavy days like this than to crash into my comfy Italian leather rocking recliner and watch some cable TV, while dribbling 160 proof Wild Turkey down my neck.

I got myself a drink, grabbed the remote, collapsed into my chair, hit the button on the remote, and ........... nothing. WTF? I climbed outta my chair, grabbed the other remote, hit the tit, and.......... fcuk-all happened! WTFF? I checked the power board, power supply, cables running every which way, and nothing seemed out of order, except the box wouldn't light up.

I rang the Foxtel line and got the robot. "Good Afternnon, please tell me a little about what you'd like to talk about today" "My fcuking Foxtel Box is Fcuked!", I shout into the phone. "Right, so you have a technical issue, yes?" "Fcuking Oath mate, this piece of shiit won't fcuking go, it's rooted!" I reply.

"Right, we will now attempt to reboot your Foxtel box remotely. Please hang up, and if your Foxtel box is still not working, please call us right back". "No worries Robby, give it a bash you robot dickhead!"

10 minutes later, no go. Fcuk it, I call them back., and get Robby the Robot back again. He puts me Thru to Azir, in Pakistan or India, or some other fcuking third world toilet. Azir asks me whats wrong, and I say that the Foxtel box is fcuked. He tells me in his crappy Muslim voice, that my power supply is buggered. (it's not) I say that it's not, but he's unmoved, I'll receive a new power supply in 5 working days.

I tell him that it's not the power supply, but he tells me to piss off, and asks me if there's anything he can help me with today? I say 'Yep, you can roll over and die you waste of skin", but I don't think he understands and wishes me a lovely day.

I call back in 20 minutes or so, and this time I get Andy. Andy is another curry muncher, but a nice bloke. I tell him about Azir, but he's really not interested, so I let it die. He agrees that the box is indeed fcuked, and thanks me for my patience, and straight away I start to like him. He tells me he'll get a new box within 48 hours and asks if he can be of any more help. I ask him to punch Azir in the face, but he tells me that he's not allowed to.

So here I am, sitting in my lovely  Italian leather armchair with a lovely glass of Turkey Lurkey, singing Christmas fcuking Carols and wishing the world wasn't quite so full of deadschidts........... Oh well, time for a Nap, I was so pissed off last night I couldn't sleep! Cheers, Terry. ;D

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Not sure that you're looking for a straight answer but what the hell.  I'll give it a go.
Wild caught fish/ shrimp are fish swimming around happily in the oceans/ bays etc when joe fisherman comes along w/ a big net and scoops them up and brings them to your local fish market.
These fish/ shrimp tend to be healthier for you to eat since they eat a more natural diet free of crap and food coloring.

An amazingly large amount of fish/ shrimp sold at fish markets are "farm" raised.  Think large pens floating in the water.  These fish are fed all kinds of crap and food coloring and have been known to harm the native species. 

Stick to the wild caught as long as it's a sustainable fishery.

Getting off my soapbox now.

It pisses me off that I go out this morning to ride my brand new 1 1/2 year old Triumph motorcycle to work this morning and just because it's fcuking 35° F outside the GD piece of $hit decides to go click.  Fcuk Triumph  I hope they all rot in hell.  So I pull the cover off the 40 year old CB and with a little coaxing she fires right up and off I go.  Did I already say Fcuk Triumph.  That Fcuking pisses me off.

Damn limeys can't make a fcuking motorcycle that runs in cold weather.  Bunch a fcuking wankers.

What PISSES me ,is to have someone come on a FORUM with a sad ass story about I was in the process of building this badass bike and the shop burned down around it. He then comes to forums like this begging and pleading for people to help a BROTHER out by GIVING him parts to build another badass bike, only to find out later there was NEVER a fire or a badass bike to begin with, he just wanted to build a FREE bike!!!

There's got to be something wrong with a bike that's built in a country where the temps never get over 35 degrees, that won't start in cold weather?

My Triumph Rocket III may well be a POS too, it's cost me and my brother close to $40K since he bought it new in 2007, (and I bought it from him in 2009) I walked past it yesterday and noticed (not for the first time) a pool of coolant under the engine, so I'll be having words with Melbourne Triumph on Monday.

To be fair though, your problem sounds more like a dud battery mate, so maybe it's an "owner maintenance" issue? I must add that it sounds weird for a Seppo (endearing term for a chap from the US) using the term "Wanker" to complain about an Englishman, the term "Wanker" of course is as English as "Fish and Chips". Doesn't bother me at all, but it might piss a Pommy Prick right off. ;D

Hmmm, I have to wonder if that is really and endearing term coming from you. 

It is a known ECU issue.  Triumph is reviewing the information and seeing if they need to make a change although my understanding is it is no longer an issue on newer bikes(already changed).  I would run out and buy a new battery except my charger will put it back to where the bike will start in less than two minutes.  This happens on a regular basis but I can usually start it for at least a couple of days after charging.  Slap it on the charger once a week and no problem until it got colder.

The people that have the problem tend to use their bikes around town or make regular short runs.  My commute to work, if you can call it that, is less than two miles.  If I could make a twenty minute ride every day it probably would not be an issue.  A mod has already been created to bypass the ecu but I hesitate to do it just yet although I probably will soon.

I wonder if I could trade my Triumph on another 40 year old Honda.  At least they start in the cold.  Damnit Triumph pisses me off.
