    Default What were they thinking???

    So I just finished watching Ice Road Truckers (quite an interesting show btw, christ they have balls for driving over a frozen lake in huge ass trucks), when an ad came up for a Streets' Ice-cream called the "Gaytime", with the jingle, "So hard to have a gaytime on your own"

    *says in my best Warren Brown voice* Streets, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING???

    (for the record, sorry if this post has any typos or generally seems retarded, typical friday night, kinda drunk lol)

    last season of it I found great but the ones they are showing now are the same thing but they are padding it out with a whole lot of boring stuff.

    I want to delete this thread just based on those idiots from TGAU...hearing that line makes me so angry for some reason.

    Ice Road Truckers was only good ont he first season, after that we know the dangers so it gets boring.

    Just wondering does anyone else think that driving for those amount of hours without any sleep is highly irresponsible?

    I guess though De Beers were never renowned for their compasionate side.

    LOL

    seconded!

    Some of the cars those idiots put up there are soo far off the mark. I am still struggling to come to terms with the fact that they said the legnum came from New Zealand......

    Am I the only one who realises that Ice Road Truckers is a repeat, not season 2?

    On the other topic, I could go a gaytime right now!

    Good pay, but I wouldn't call it great. Occasionally we get a job pop up that will match those sort of pay rates (tipper work).
