Unit Request: Brum

[Goldflash]

So, to go along with my highly anticepated British Children's Television mod, I decided I deperate need....
BRUM! The Super Brave Hero!


C'mon! Its Brum! He's awesome! Plotty, you're British! You know what I'm talking about! You've probably even been to Birmhingham. Oh, I'm sorry. The Big Town.

We all need Brum!

 

[Plotinus]

I've been to Birmingham, but I've never seen that thing before...

 

[Stormrage]

I remember watching Brum when I was a kid. Wtf you gonna do with that unit!?

 

[Heretic_Cata]

Ummm ... LOL

 

[kairob]

@ Stormy: Isnt it obvious? it's a specialised super camoflaged mechanised infantry, who sneaks upon unsuspecting foes then when they least expect it releaces toxic gas and runs over those who remain in an evil phycodelic rage...
...either that or it drives around and gores "brum"...

 

[odintheking]

Holy crap! Those British guys sure come up with some weird kid's shows (Teletubbies or Boohbah, anyone?)

 

[kairob]

Britain used to have awsome kids tv, then it all went downhill...

 

[Virote_Considon]

Yeh. When I was a kid, T.V. here was much better.

 

[Partizanac]

Every time I think about the British I just remember the show "Only Fools and Horses!"

 

[kairob]

that is an awsome program!!! But seriously faulty towers is the best!

 

[Goldflash]

No way, man! Brum! Haw-heenk! He's a little car! He drives around! And he helps people! It usualy involves some sort of heavy object on wheels rolling down hill. Or some bad guys stealing a heavy object, then, through ineptitude, losing it and cause it to roll down hill. And then the bad guys fall ina puddle and get arrested and Brum returns the heavy object. And all the time his headlights are moving looking around at stufff and his doors are opening and closing and the bonnet flaps pop open...

Speaking of bonnet, you learn so many british words on that show... Like what the hell is a 'skip'? Is that like, a dumpster? Because the old sofa had to go in the skip.

 

[Quinzy]

a skip is a big ole' metal/plastic box with a lid, and its used as a giant bin, usually used in construction sites, or big companies.

 

[Goldflash]

For garbage? So it is a dumpster, then.

 

[Quinzy]

well, usually for heavier garbae, like when your moving house and you wanna dump the old couch or something. or, as my uncle uses his two for, dumping rotten fruit and veg and boxes and potato bags etc..

 

[Goldflash]

So its a dumpster.

 

[Plotinus]

What the hell is a "dumpster"?

This is a skip:



It is used for rubbish, not "garbage", and one puts the old sofa or settee in there, not a "couch"!

Now going vaguely back on OT, I'm assuming this must be some kind of new children's TV show since I've never heard of it. Is it called Brum because that's the sound a car makes, or because it's from Birmingham?

 

[Storm Grunt]

Our equivalent to a "skip" would be a "roll-off" -used for construction and demo work mostly. Hauled away when full.


A "Dumpster" is a commercial use trash collection point usually used by business's or apartment complexes that is emptied on a weekly schedule.

 

[Quinzy]

plot: i presume a little from both. a brummie car! haha.

 

[Snakelover]

I'm too scared to model this unit...

 

[Stormrage]

All those things are dumpsters. A dumpster is a dumpster, and you should put mostly dead people in it. In pieces, if possible. Brum is called Brum cos its a car (Brumm, brrrumm).

And I think the time to send Goldflash to therapy has finaly arrived.
