Re: The Lounge
I found a half a kilogram bag of chips and I ate almost all of it. I should get stronger wi-fi and take this computer to my room before I get too fat.

Half a kilogram?
lol
Mate, I've eaten an entire square meat feast sixteen inch pizza to myself, with wings, garlic bread and a 1.5 liter bottle of Coca Cola in one sitting.
For reference, I'm too small to fit into trousers that have a 26" waist without a belt, so much so they slide down on their own if I stand up. I've done that with the pizza several times...with no weight gain.
Square pizzas are the best. They fill the entire box, corner to corner My family plan to go to a buffet my birthday on the 5th of February, so that's going to be fun alright.
What can I say? I've got a very, very fast metabolism, so much so that I'm never seen without snacks close at hand.

Haha yes, I too have done European things in Europe with my European friends and family. We uh, walked for yards. And ate a 24 centimeter-long subway sandwich, and ate ...royales with cheese?
I am European. mate.

Thing is, my usage of mate is neither forced nor ironic. It is part of regular conversation where I live in the United Kingdom, the town of Wolverhampton. It's a relatively medium to low wealth area, so there are certainly an abundance of chavs who would rather live off the dole like sponges than try and work an honest day in the life. Though I gladly prefer to call them "♥♥♥♥ scrubs", simply because they threw all their opportunities in life away so that they act "hard." I also have the Black Country accent, which means I tend to talk quite fast but in shorter sentences.
Naturally, a common greeting here is thus : "Ya alright, mate?" "Yeah mate, you?" "I'm alright, not like that proper foot Mickey down the road."
You do this even if you don't even know who they are :p ♥♥♥♥ Mickeys. Everyone I've heard nicknamed that has been a right pain in the arse. Always stirring ♥♥♥♥ on the estate...
Also, I don't believe "mate" is not often used on the continent and most British people do not refer to themselves as European. We are with Europe, not of it, though that will likely change if Euroscepticism continues to rise as it seems it will. I do use American English online, however, rather than British English, simply because a number of stories I work on feature American - or culturally similar to American - characters, so it'd make better sense and it is more convenient to continue using the same spellchecker since they lack any major differences, only small ones like armor v armour
Food wise, we Brits are fond of pies, savory and sweet. Gravy, chips, some peas and a nice steak and onion pie? Heaven. Sandwiches not so much, I think, though we do have a fondness for the butte, which you can get in most shops, definitely so in Greggs, though I believe that's more of a regional thing since I didn't find any buttes in the Greggs I visited in London, but they were there in Yorkshire...though most of the time the shopkeepers couldn't understand me, nor I them.
I tend to lean towards British English when it comes to typing, although with that said, i can never fully escape the fact that i'm Danish, which means that i will probably make some appalling bastard child of a language in between American and British English that's spoken with Danish intonation. Now why, you might wonder, do i lean towards British? Because it sounds funnier, so you got that going for you. :v

if youve got a fast metabolism then eating often is one of the reasons you ARENT getting fat if you stopped eating so much then your metabolism would slow down because its not processing anything dont use that as an excuse to be super unhealthy though

Don't worry, I don't eat that much anymore, thankfully It's very expensive, so I only do it as an occasional treat every couple of months or so nowadays, though I used to do it far more regularly when I was younger and still ever-so-slightly batshit insane.
I'm still very thin, though. I've actually been trying to put on some weight, though putting it on for me is a hell of a lot harder than losing it. Before, I actually managed to build up to a normal weight, but it just...disintegrated by itself. I seem to always lose weight back to my current size if I go over, or gain it to get here.
Just another mystery of me, I guess.

Why can a post be reported only once? Like, I wanted to report a post but "This post has already been reported". Is it to prevent spam?

They're already going to see that it's been flagged, so there's no point in allowing extra reports.

Re: The Lounge
Yeah but what if it was flagged for something else? What if it's something not too noticeable at first glance? What if I want some credit!? :c
