tunci haven´t posted anything for more than one week??

stumpy is back from her holliday in Turkie.

I am back from my holiday in Thassos ( I am sure it went unnoticed) ........... but I did notice the 20+ Turkish registered Goldwings parked outside a hotel in Golden Beach   (Sorry it was not Turkey this year    )

What is a Goldwing? Welcome back.

MeDanone seems to have gone unnoticed by mods ...

What sort of a problem do you have with MeDanone, can I be of any help?

hansom is still active here:

http://www.turkishclass.com/columns/thehandsom/2010/06/25/armenian-question-iv-final-

and there is a lover of his who keeps +1ing his comments as if he knows everything better than anybody else.

I wish it was holiday that keeps me too busy to post. I really could do with some time off but unfortunately (or, fortunately?) it´s just the kids...

This is a Goldwing!  There are clubs for these people who ride these bikes and the Turkish and Greeks meet up in Thassos every year and show off their big machines

 See what you mean - a bit of a storm I would say  

Oh and I forgot to mention the fruit (case) yoghurt

Dilara was here today.

Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks beat LeBron James, D. Wade, C. Bosh and the Miami Heat 105-95 to win the 2011 NBA Championship! Good for Dirk Nowitzki, Jason Kidd, and Jason Terry. Congrats to the  Mavericks!

The change in Turkie´s election map (from 2009 to2011):

can u give a key or a link showing which parties these colours represent?

Orange=AKP

Red=CHP

Purple=MHP

White=Indepentent Kurdish Candidates (BDP)

Last-ditch winner helps Galatasaray stay alive

A crucial last-second shot by Joshua Shipp helped Galatasaray Cafe Crown stave off elimination in the Beko Basketball League playoff final series against Fenerbahçe Ülker.

Shipp sank a shot with only a second left in the game as Galatasaray took a 72-71 win over its archrival and clawed one point back. Fenerbahçe still has the upper hand in the series, but Galatasaray will have a shot at equalizing the best-of-seven series when Game 6 takes place on its home court, Abdi İpekçi Arena, on Friday.

According to the Turkish Basketball Federation ruling, no away fans are allowed in the courts during the final series, mostly due to the hostile environment created by the rivalry of the two clubs.

Some guys have too much time on their hands to produce nothing but some nonsense.

Elisabeth is back and has cleaned up the mess!

 Errr some things are not as they seem Si++

There you go again!  Minimize my powers if you want....at least SOMEBODY missed me!  

 Sorry but I was errr jealous!

Some people think "Arabic music" is a kind of "Turkish music".

no way! you are joking? 

well some people don´t know the difference between a Turk, Arab, Afghan, Iranian........and they don´t care....or think it´ important. 

Not me, I know....

caliptrix is back

maybe they´re thinking of arabesque?

 I think most people just tend to lump people together in groups...Middle Eastern, European, Asian, African and don´t use or know correct terminology.  I am not sure that it is done purposefully but I am certainly guilty of it at times.  Many people call my husband an Arab, sometimes a Mexican because of his dark complexion.  He has even been asked if he is Italian... 

Ah well, people also say "Europeans" like it´s one thing... there are only two countries in the world... "my country" and "everything outside of the borders"

I was talking about this thread in particular:

http://www.turkishclass.com/forumTitle_50531

Pay attention to the forum title.

There are no moderators around. Chonglily has invaded language forum.

Apply to be one?

You have never been shy about sending me a PM before!  .  I took care of it si++

So many things to do, so little time.

catwoman is back

lemon is back and will argue with anyone to win a debate, as ever.

Not true! I´ve never won. Winners are those who speak pleasant stuff.

lemon disappeared after stirring things up a little (one locked thread)

TC is in for a spam wave. Look at the signed in users many of whom have some strange text in their profiles:

kathiemihalak, grazynacolcord, taunyasumerlin, tarencrock, matthewlandgraf, bernadettegarte, teresa tazecan, deli, noemipignataro, isislagerberg, vanitamelcer, tassia, jesicaherzfeld, gennydougherty, delciefieldman, vivanruezga, mistipicon, portiawaidelich, jalba teodora, ednafertik, rethapardew, adamguererro, discoveryistanb, jolanaze

Except Deli

New techniques for spammers - post a lovey dovey sugar coated message to a profile or to a photo

If you get messages like these let us know so that we can dispose of the spammer in the normal fashion.

Especially except deli. I don´t know how deli´s name got onto a suspected spammers list. 

How many more will we see of these "cheapest price blah blah" posts? TC is under spam attack.

Deleted the offender and the annoying posts.  When will they learn?

 Did we miss carter1516?

I actually went to sleep for a few hours.  He/she has also been deleted along with the annoying messages.

Awww... hansom is still around... He even likes my posts...

"Absurd news" thread has turned into something where serious matters are discussed.

..........serious....what IS serious....really? 

Homemaking?

ahh....dear lemon....home is where the heart is....is not the heart important?

Aenigma is back.

I think I have always been your favourite.....in fact...I think you love me

Maybe. But not the way you might think. And you are not the only one. I love lemon too.

Well, I mean as a sister.

Wooooowoooo!     I am liking this new Si++!!  You used to ignore me

You have excellent taste

awwwwwwwwwww!

--Ice, this made my day brighter and gifted a smile on my sour face

Thank you, icy brother, mwah, canim love you too.

Greetings Sister,

Can you disclose the algo that turns si++ into --Ice?

In the absence of a reply from Lemon I have sought to answer this complicated question.  I can only conclude that Lemon has looked into the chemical mineral data and concluded that you are ice:-

It all makes sense....

• no cleaveage (of course, you are a man),
• Colourless? That´s just mean.
• Transparent?  Hmmm maybe a little.
• Brittle?  Maybe if something unpleasant is said about the mother country.
• Coarse?  Hmmmmm a bit harsh I think.  You seem quite charming
• Massive?  I have not seen a picture of you so cannot comment.
• Dendritic branching growths?  Hmmmm again, I have not seen a picture....
• Lustre?  Dull

In summary, this is NOT a compliment Si++.  I think you should forget about Lemon and love me only

Dear friend, dear sister, have you come back to steal my fame and reputation?

Darling Lemon, I have no need to steal anything from you - I have my own fame and reputation to preserve 

Some guys have too much time on their hands. So much that they even waste some of it to analyse me.

Analysing you could NEVER be a waste of time!!

Anyway, just kidding S++ I am sure Lemon can melt that Ice really ...

You mean lemon is one such hot lady? How do you know?

I could tell you....but I´d have to kill you

This is getting exciting!!

 Yes, I can barely stay in my seat! 

Yes I noticed that....

 You´ve been hacking into the CIA website again!!!!!  How do you know what I´m doing? 

Lisa... are you posting your potty-time pictures on the CIA web site..??

 They must be watching me...those dirty bastards! 

Hmmm! It does make sense now.

TheAenigma has too much time to kill these days and is bored.

The CIA is running out of targets!

Hahaha! Partly true, I admit, but unfortunately not for long.

However....love this site and it´s good to keep forum´s lively - even if it´s with all my drivel, so won´t desert it completely this time...

Tunci is smitten with me

 Or..he wants to smite you! 

Heated debates and cultural clashes...and this is just on TC!

FB has it´s share tonight too!

I expect it´s all peace and tranquillity on SalamWorld

TC has lately been invaded by some idle people who try to be funny.

 All hail the King of the Idle! 

Yes it´s shocking!

Thank you dear! How is it going your with your Turkish? Let me know if you need any help.

I have no interest in learning Turkish, but thank you for asking

I thought "off topic" was just that - for fun discussions, for anything NOT to do with Turkey?!  Lighten up and avoid the "off topic" section if a bit of fun bothers you so much!!!

And you hang out in a Turkish learning site this much. You´re indeed an enigma.

Deal with it - I´m going nowhere (only because you want me too )

It´s not for me to deal with. It´s just you who may opt to kill her too much time anyway she wants.

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way

Well have had a very long, hard day at work and enjoy coming home, making a green tea and winding you up...and it always works   It would appear that you spend far longer "frittering" than me

Deal with it as I said

My dear si-- Why are you so concerned with how others fill their time?  Does your constant posting on TC...which makes you one of the top posters these days....not give you enough to fill your idle time? 

3 or4 posts a day. Is it too many? And I am here to help those who try to learn Turkish. Check my posts if you are in doubt. What about you? What do you post usually?

It´s something not for me to deal with. I am just an observer here (of some idle people whose aim to be here is just an enigma).

Well you seem more than just an observer, you are clearly very wound up by my presence!  I am keeping clear of the language forum and posting in the off topic section so....deal with it

  I love you too.

You completely miss the point.  The question is...who are you to worry about what anyone else is doing here?  3 or 4 or 500 posts a day....what concern would it be to me!!

It´s our time to do with as we wish and if you are concerned with what my "contributions" are read them for yourself. 

You are not the judge of what is considered useful.  

I think my contributions are VERY useful

And....to be honest I would have got bored and left days ago, but Tunci and Si++ make it more fun for me

Nope! I don´t have for that! Have a good day! I wasted enough with you. Cheers!

Hmm?

Well now that´s just lazy on your part.  You ask a question about what I am doing here but don´t want to do the research to find the answer for yourself! 

I didn´t name you. Seems like you wear the cap because it fits.

That makes absolutely no sense.

Bye bye canim - see you later

OK. If you say so.

 What does being named girleegirl have to do with anything?  If you are going to make statements like this then you should be willing to support them. 

And as you are so worried about the origins of my nickname .... it comes from my family.

I didn´t name you anywhere. Are you OK? You are the one who jumped into it unsolicitedly.

Haven´t you heard of "wear the cap if it fits"?

 Sii, really I don´t understand what your point is here.  Can you clarify? 

And I wasn´t aware that comments were now only allowed if solicited!  Who exactly solicited your comments on people´s idle time?   

I think you do! If you really don´t. so be it. I won´t say anything further. So be it.

 Hmmm...if I said I don´t get your point then I don´t get your point.  Don´t be afraid to explain yourself....unless of course you can´t. 

What´s your problem? 

GG, darling....what he means by "I didn´t name you" is that he didn´t say you were the lazy one - he is talking about me

Oh god...I wish I WERE lazy   I need a holiday

 Ohh thank you canim!  Gosh I am such a stupid girl!  But fyi...I called HIM lazy

Hmm.

Americans do not know what "wear the cap if it fits" means.

Is this UK saying only?

 No, I know perfectly well what it means but you don´t seem to know in what context to use it.

And you thought you were done!!!!!! 

So you are not able to undertand it if the context is not correct. Then in what kind of context should I have used it?

 The RIGHT context! 

Don´t be idle! Be more specific! Contribute something useful.

And that smiley is not very kind of you by the way. You think you make fun of me. So childish!

 Emoticons are funny si.  You should really try to lighten up and really....don´t be such a hypocrite.  It´s not very "adult" of you to question my contributions to this forum and make fun of me.

As for said contributions, I happen to think my posts are very useful.  It´s really all in the interpretation isn´t it.  I would much rather read something from someone who is funny, or who stands up for women´s rights than something from someone who cuts and pastes articles and has zero sense of humor. 

Your own thread here is a great example....I see no use in you telling everyone how many people have registered in the last few days or that you notice someone has come back after being away for a while.  However, I would never say that it is not useful to someone else.  Perhaps others are riveted by this type of information.  It really is all just a matter of taste. 

And what you like and do not like is not of concern to me.  I am not here for your pleasure or for what your understanding of what this forum should be.  I am here for my own reasons and if you choose to think badly of me....well that is just your problem. 

I won´t be kowtowed and pushed from writing what I choose because you did not "solicit" my opinion.

Quit disturbing the tranquility of our hum-drum forums, GG!  Everything was perfectly drab until you and theAenigma came back home.  I hope you´re satisfied that I have to read all the forums now!

Hahaha!  I gave you less work yesterday and I hope you appreciate it!  Even evil Ameriken Moderators deserve some time off sometimes

Posting machine Aenigma left TC thinking she acumulated 5000 posts behind her. She couldn´t take into account the TC moderation. Now she has to come back and post some more.

Someone has brought this to my attention  So here is the first...

PS I knew you´d miss me and want me back 

Caliptrix is alive.

Armegon is also alive.

qdemir was here

2011 has got rid of two leaders: Gaddafi and Kim Dzong Il. Count in some Arab leaders.

It also brought new terminology like Arab spring or Arab Autumn.

Events happent too quick, things advanced too fast.

barba_mama woke up from her winter sleep.

Yes, she woke up and took over!! 

barba_mama survived the wintery slopes of Uludag, but fell down (actually, was pulled down by somebody ELSE falling down) in Istanbul, and now has to take it easy...totally bored she spends her energy on irritating people on internet.

PS: Her plan to ambush Murat Boz in Uludag has failed, as she ambushed Fatih Urek instead by accident. Although it lead to a great party, no wedding plans followed (for obvious reasons). Plan to become Mrs. Boz is still in process.

We were not aware of such a plan.

It would certainly have gone unnoticed, if you had not disclosed it here.

 Well, Mr. Boz doesn´t know it yet either... But he will know very soon

svenjoki has something to say but can´t say it.

Armegon is alive!  

lemon is gone

scalpel thinks TC is a dull place.

scalpel was a great scholar and person. He will be missed on TC.

sonunda muvaffak oldu..

Hmm. I didn´t know that. Is it your observation or an exchanged info?

And he was (or sounded to be) a die-hard FB fan.

Birisi kafayı yemiş.

In English:

There is somebody in the forums who needs to have his head examined.

Dont like people telling the truth or you can not handle the truth?  

Some idle people have too much time on their hands.

hansom is acting like parrot lately. he keeps saying one word: "racism, racism, racism,..".

If you are unable to explain yourself without racism, you will have to live with it..

How true. somebody describes himself.

As I said mate, show me a single post or a single sentence which might resemble anything close to racism. YOU can not..

But look at your posts.. It is spilling..It is stinking...

Racism has to go my friend.. That is the bottom line..

Now at least you you know where the bottom line is..

All the post from you lately. Your post are stinking. You have problems apperantly.

Stay away from here for a while. You will feel much better.

Speechless? Repeating what I say to you?  

But this is serious: 

There is not place for racism in a modern society. That has to stop.

Full STOP!!!

Speechless? Talking to you a waste of time for me. That´s it.

I´m gone today but you stick it around, keep saying "racism, racism, racism,...".

There is somebody around who´s belly dancing so as not to answer a simple question asked here (starting from post# 5103).

hands was gone and now he is back çok şükür.

I was on a holiday and I was here  

How beautiful. I love Kaş, but didn´t see all of this in the video. Are all those photos from Kaş?

I think they are.

Kas is still unspoilt.I think the reason for that is the geography. The geography is not letting it. The mountain sorroundingis not allowing for the growth like oludeniz or other big towns. I love it..

ps..See Alameda, even you and I have something in common 

scalpel has become polymorphic.
