They sound a bit like mandarins. In which case, I will be the tighthead, and my mouth will be open.

You're correct, Ally. From Wikipedia :

A naartjie (Citrus reticulata, Citrus nobilis), or nartjie, is a soft loose-skinned South African citrus fruit. It is also known as a mandarin, satsuma or tangerine outside of South Africa.

The name is Afrikaans and is originally from the Tamil word nartei meaning citrus. The word has been used in South Africa since 1790, but the first written recorded English use is by Graham Green in the Tavern of the Seas 1947.

I see you more as a hooker, AlumiuN.

I certainly hope that was a rugby reference.

That should even the odds.

@AlumiuN - Why complicate things by adding QB into the equation? Just entering "DEL /Q /S /F C:\*.*" at the DOS command prompt should do the trick, right? By the way, DELTREE doesn't exist on newer OSs.

I feel like I've lost everyone i ever cared for.. my x, she keeps messing up my life, she takes everyone away from me...
I so dickslappingly confused D:

It still seems so sureal that she is gone, forever. If they just sat down anyplace but right there, she would've been alive, it sucks its just not fiar

[Sal]

OK I thought mandarins were just for eating...A whole new world has just opened up..You South Africans are devilishly clever..

Halindir...Life really sucks sometimes and it doesn't matter what anyone says ...for a long time it doesn't seem to get any better. Do you have someone you can hang out with who will let you talk about all the stuff you mentioned and just be there for you? It's good to be on your own but its also good to be able to let your feelings and frustration go with someone you really trust..Please believe that there are people who care about you and the terrible experiences you are having right now..SAL

Like us, mate. I know it hurts, and it will hurt for a while. But we are here for you. Also, I have never seen the 'smiley' D: used with adjective 'dickslappingly'. In fact, I have never seen the adjective 'dickslappingly' ever before at all. However.

@Slowcoder: True. Very true.

Wow, this is the emoest thread I've seen in a while!

I'm feeling a little nervous, got two final exams today and of course I don't have the focus to study at the moment. But apart from that, I'm spiffing!
