[OOC] The Jaeger Program (Always Open)

[Cassowarysaur]

I have now changed the photo to a bit more of a close up, but this time of a completely different person. Anyway, I've been seeing a lot of people with their own customised Mechs, will creating them come later?

@Cassowary

alrighty! and there are a few on the first post to choose from, though really i make the choice of which jaeger they get. i would like to have Deep Sea Dragon get assigned to someone but if theres another you like, its not that big a deal for me.

@Calla

okay okay calm your boobs. once we're done, ill let Molly have a go.

[Shadowcatcher]

yessss adam levineeeee!

[Cassowarysaur]

Thanks Shadow, I would rather a giant orange mech called "The Prince of Orange" but we can't always get what we want! :3

Oh, also, I'm not Dutch, I'm just obsessed with them.

[Garrison]

I like your edit's on the Bin, awesome stuff. I noticed you wrote Maki as just Mak though, in case you have OCD about stuff like that. Also, I noticed I never put my country of origin so you didn't have one for the Bin but I want to be from Australia. Hence my family dying in Sydney.

[Shadowcatcher]

all right, the bin had been updated. please note that Mako and Raleigh have different ages because this is supposed to be around 12 years or so later than the events in the movie. give or take one or two years, im not good with math but thats not the point. just in case there were any questions about that. feel free to check it out. there is a link to the bin on the summary post.

@Cassowary

well then what about this Jaeger:



he is in the list of singles. and both his hands are cannons.

thats awesome.

@Garrison

will post now

[CallaLily180]

I still enjoy Canada, he has a much more simple name.

[Garrison]

I don't think I'm gonna go full blown Aussie and say all their slang and stuff, but yea, when he talks, I suppose theirs an accent there.

[Cassowarysaur]

Well, I've always liked the Greeks, and it IS in all orange . . .
Yeah, that's a pretty darn cool Mech.
When can I get started with my post?

go ahead and go full blown aussie if you know it. ive been looking up russian accents and words all day hoping to get it right. i think it makes it more fun.

[CallaLily180]

I need to look at Canadian slang...

[Garrison]

How many win's is it before the training is over, it's your one, my zero so far. What are we going up to cause I need to know when to use my best move.
Also, I think I bookmarked an Australian word list so I could if need be.

Four.

---

I'm using it all!

Canuck- Derogatory term for Canadians, which we have heartily embraced.

Cowtown- The city of Calgary

Chesterfield- A couch. Granted, only my grandparents said this, but everyone in Canada knows what it is.

Chinook- A warm westerly wind that blows east from British Columbia over the Rocky Mountains rapidly warming the temperature in the foothills.

Click- Slang for kilometer. Yes, the metric system, people!

Eh?- Has unlimited uses, but tends to mean "don't you think," or "Huh." Not exclusively Canadian, but one of the most popular slang terms we are known for, so hey, we'll keep it.

Garburator- Garbage disposal.

Homo milk- No, not the flamboyant version of milk, just whole milk

Hosed- Pissed, or angry

Hoser- Lived in Canada for 19 years and never really figured out what this means. Some insult I'm sure. The Canadian loser, I suppose.

Hydro- Refers to electricity...when my mom mentions her "hydro bill," I laugh.

Kraft dinner- Kraft macaroni and cheese

Loonie- The Canadian dollar coin

Mickie- Pint of hard liquor

Mountie- Member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police

Newfie- Derogatory term for someone from Newfoundland

Pencil crayons- Colored pencils. This one I still use. Can't seem to make the switch.

Pepsi- Derogatory term for French Canadians

Pop- Soda, although some regions of the USA use this too!

Poutine- The delicious combination of French fries, gravy and melted cheese curds. YUM.

Runners- Refers to any kind of athletic footwear. Sneakers and tennis shoes still sound funny to me!

Take off- "Get outta here!"

Timbit- A donut hole from Tim Horton's.

Timmie's- Tim Hortons restaurant, virtually on every street corner, Canada's prostitute.

Toonie- The Canadian two dollar coin. I hope we don't come up with the five dollar coin...a Foonie? Really? Like we don't get made fun of enough.

Touque- A winter hat

Track pants/suit- Sweat pants

Transport truck- A semi, or tractor trailer. Have only heard my mom say this though.

Two-four- Slang for a 24 pack of beer

Washroom- A bathroom. Makes sense. I don't see any baths in most public washrooms.

Zed- The letter Z

Zellers- a department store, much like Kmart

[Cassowarysaur]

Zed? Eh you hoser, that's the proper way to say it! Take off!

[Shadowcatcher]

wow. i learned more just now than i did taking french for 6 years lol

going to post now.

[Garrison]

I'm afraid I'm going to bed now. I know I normally stay on here for another hour but I am seriously exhausted after a 12 hour mission, running on like 6 hours of sleep, doing this for several days now. I'm gonna try to get a little more rest tonight. I'm really sorry cause we finally started the training but hopefully I can get some good stuff in when I get up and have time to post. I shouldn't have mission tomorrow.

[CallaLily180]

Yeah!

[Shadowcatcher]

okay no problem

[CallaLily180]
