Sexiest NS'er 2011

[Albertasby]

Wow, I seem like a total photo whore from the OP :')

[Lackadaisical2]

Oh good, I didn't post any nekkid pics... yet.

You can always do it before the deadline...

No, thats final round stuff.

Plus, I'm not drunk anymore, just a bit of morning buzz.

Ko-bean-air.

Who would pronounce it like that?

I've been doing so. It's note like there's no precedent in English for words potentially being pronounced as one syllable when they're two, etc. (e.g.mare for the last bit)

[Kobeanare]

Every Hamish I've ever known of pronounced it Haymish. How the hell was this guy pronouncing it?

It's pronounced James

...I'm off to find that 'head exploding' gif.

More a Celtic thing generally than an Irish one. I had a pal at school called Hamish (and pronounced Hay-mish by basically everyone ), some confusion there.

Menzies is the big Scottish one for me in terms of strangeness. Although I know the reason for it.

...every Menzies I know pronounces it exactly the way it's spelled. What the hell?

Mainwaring is another one. Here, it's pronounced exactly as it's spelled, but apparently the Brits pronounce it Mennering.

@Aurora
I'm the one in the green. Our faces are totally different. I'm taller by about 3 inches and possibly a bit rounder and babyfaced. Times the difference by 10 xD

Ahh...fraternal twins..I've supposed that..I'm wondering now if he's as nice as you lol.

[Osterra]

Hmm or do you mean he's your fraternal twin?

That's the one xD

Huh. Like I said, it's basically just "Kobe" (as in Kobe Bryant, who pronounces the E) with extra letters tacked on.

Really should've just stuck with koberulz.

Definitely debatable in the looks department. Personality wise, he is more rude and slightly more selfish (not too selfish). He'd rather be seen without me xD He also doesn't have a nation here because, and I quote, "I'm not a basement dweller without a life."

Then certainly you should be drunk more often

Well then. My attempt to refer to it without having to actually look at it has failed miserably. And you've pulled out a bigger version that usual. Dammit.

Have you got a modern picture of the two of you together, I'd love to see two amazingly hot boys stood next to each other! And besides, me and Aurora get to see the one we've chosen <3

Menzies (Mingus) Campbell does otherwise

Menzies is pronounced Mingis, or something similar. I had heard the Hamish/James one before but I thought it was a WU. And us 'Brits' don't like saying things like they should be.

I try, but even I have to rest sometimes.

No, he'd rather not have a pic with me. Always gets out a picture if I'm in it. I guess I'm an embarrassment...

[Dyakovo]

Ko-bean-air.

Who would pronounce it like that?

I'm koberulz everywhere else, but that doesn't sound like much of a country name, so I just started throwing on extra letters until I found something nobody else was going by. Now that I've stopped using the nation simulator and have 2000-odd posts on the forums, I'm wishing I'd just stuck with koberulz, but there's not much I can do now.

I've always pronounced it Koh-be-ahn-air...
*shrugs*
I was close...

Where's the excitement in pronouncing things they way they're spelt? We like to keep you foreigners on your toes!

That is classic cinema that is.

Pertinent question from the new Harold & Kumar film (for the record, its pretty decent)...who is the Karate Kid?

[Lackadaisical2]

Thank you for explaining that more diplomatically than i could have...

You and diplomatically go together quite well, I think.

Ha!

Well, you me and Lacky? We know that. We've all posted ample proof of our proficiency with booze-induced diplomacy

We should start a club. Or a society. You know, being that we are the resident binge-drinkers of NSG.

You mean NSG wasn't already a binge drinking club?

Well, I'll come and post in a picture with you then?

Only if he wants to be DEATed...
