I'm not sure if that's a hispanic thing or if its just commonly used by other wastes of life. I'm definitely not saying that hispanics are a waste. But the ones that say 'mang' are, just like anyone else who says is.

Didn't anyone ever ask you the capital of Thailand, in 5th grade?

yeah and then i got hit in the nuts like everyone else. i said hispanic because many of them say "man" like "mang"

Its the Thai pronouncimication, duh.

I propose we slightly adjust it to MANGKOK.

Sounds much less gay, but is still fun to say.

is that the hispanic pronunciation of the name?

either that quote or the one where delbert grady (the previous caretaker) says that he's always been there.

I've seen The Shining. Just not enough times to memorize anything

The movie is great. The book is a stone cold horror classic. Get this, for anyone familiar with the story, the family gets snowed in and shiite gets real crazy in that big old rambling hotel. Guess what book I was in the middle of on January 26th, 1978 when the Legendary Blizzard hit? Yep, "The Shining." Freaked me the hell out.

I may be a bit late to this thread but you have a supporter in me Solon buddy. Man Fing Kok! no man wants to put man and kok in the same sentence never mind glued together like some leather capped blue oyster stage name! I say no more of this repulsive mankok BS. I don't care what else the pairing gets collectively referred to (not KokMan either btw) but enuff already with the mankok stuff!

Kindof tough to view your career on an upswing when you go from Mangenius to Mankok in 3 years, huh?

But I'm sure they will do fine here.

Just say NO.... horrendous nickname of all time!

I think there's no putting the genie back in the bottle - they are now and forever, Mankok.

the shining. go to a place where dvds are rent or sold and rent or buy it right now. it's one of a few movies that exemplifies what a horror flick should be instead of the tepid slasher flicks and gratuitous torture porn that gets released nowadays.

Jack Torrance: Wendy, let me explain something to you. Whenever you come in here and interrupt me, you're breaking my concentration. You're distracting me. And it will then take me time to get back to where I was. You understand? Now, we're going to make a new rule. When you come in here and you hear me typing

or whether you DON'T hear me typing, or whatever the xxxx you hear me doing; when I'm in here, it means that I am working, THAT means don't come in. Now, do you think you can handle that?

Wendy Torrance: Yeah.

Jack Torrance: Good. Now why don't you start right now and get the xxxx out of here? Hm?

What movie?

No more........aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
