    You know you're from Chch when..............

    You know you're from CHCH when........
    1. You use the term "liquefaction" and "seismic design" in casual conversation.
    2. Digging a hole and pooping in your garden is no longer weird.
    3. Your mayor describes the city as munted.
    4. Weaving through car size potholes on the street is no longer weird
    5. Going to Wellington to escape earthquakes makes sense
    6. A shower is heaven
    7. You have a preference of which kind of silt you'd rather shovel, dry or wet
    8. You see tanks driving around town
    9. You are always noting what you are under
    10. Due to frequent aftershocks during the night, you sleep like a baby-- Every 10 minutes you wake up and **** yourself

    I think this type of humor is a little too soon, considering what's going on in Christchurch,. A lot of people innocently lost their lives, families are grieving, it's all too fresh

    Before you start complaining (yet again) have a look at the OP's location

    Yes he's from Christchurch, I have friends in Christchurch, not all of Christchurch was devastated, He obviously did not lose anyone.
    So I think it fair to make my point. and for your info my user name is It's not worth complaining... if you read it properly. The reason for it is THAT NO ONE LISTENS IN THIS WORLD, It falls on death ears., as they all seem to know better than anyone else.
    SO IT IS NOT WORTH COMPLAINING! OR MAKING A COMPLAINT.
    Obviously nothing has ever happened to you, you have never complained,

    If you really read most peoples posts on this forum, the whine, bitch and complain about things going wrong, either with dealers, buying parts oil leaks etc etc, so the all complain in one way or another.

    oh, sorry to every one, I must be too sensitive, I will keep my opinions to my self in future , I forgot that other peoples misfortunes are ROFL material it seems.

    I'll try to laugh along with the rest of you, in future, has any one got any good jokes about the flood victims in Qld etc of course we must only laugh if it comes form the towns where people lost their lives.
    whose going to be the first one, we need a good laugh.
    I would have expected better from Landy owners

    Yet you still continue

    On a lighter note, I had to cancel my travel plans to CHCH as my accomodation fell through, although I may be able to stay with a few flatmates

    You have to remember humour is a great coping mechanism much cheaper than a therapist You must have known you would cop some flack with a user name like yours
