Welcome to Powderfinger's on-line Fanzine, Put together by the fans themselves..

WEASEL MAGAZINE

 

THE A-Z GUIDE TO THE PF.COM DISCUSSION BOARD

A) arsehole- A term which readily describes Bernard's personality in the posts he makes to the board.

    alcohol- Seems that there are a few regulars who don't mind having a drink or two before getting on the board, or coming home from a big night and getting on the board, where they display the effects of it with no shame at all.. Well not until the next morning arrives anyway.

    awards- Powderfinger have won many, yet still maintain they are not effected by any of the hype. Even Bernard, Mr Ego Man himself claims its all very nice but doesn't really matter all that much.

 

B) Beryl- An old character of pure whit who still occasionally rises up from the depths of the board to make us all aware that her and her freaked-out mind are still lurking.

    Boff- The resident musician. Always ready to lend a hand

    boof- The name given to Bernard by Beryl (see above), the idea for the name was captured by Bern's ever famous hair-style, which now is also referred to as the 'boof'.

    bf- The name which Bernard posts under. (Won't be seen in orange despite what the web-site says. He is just being rebellious.. Or he is too stupid to remember how to do it?)

    Blue Heeler & Feeler- A pair of Siamese twins who used to post on the board before they decided to separate and change their names. They still post, just under their new identities.

    Burger Queen- The name suggests she's in the wrong band site, but her funny little posts reassure that she's a fan.

    Bree- Queen of 'shitty polls'

    Big Kev- A regular on the board whenever a tour is mentioned, or someone gets, 'EXCITED!' We're all BIG KEVING IT UP!

 

C) chest hair- One of JC's fine assets which many regulars find very very attractive

    Chicky- aka Tastes Like Chicken... Resident smartarse and leader of the Cogsy's Army.

    Cogs- The name which Jon posts under (will be in orange)

    Computer Geek- Often we are all accused of being computer geeks by outsiders who feel they know us, and they know better than us

 

D) Dz- The name Darren posts under (will be in orange)

    drama- One of the main elements on the board. We have it all, romance, jealousy, bitch fights, heartache and much more. As you can see we are the classic example of Home and Away put into a real life (via computer screen) context.

    drug addictions- There are certain members (minus the 's') who have this problem, just bare with them- as hard as it may be at times.

    da- Double Allergic abbreviated

    db- Discussion Board abbreviated

 

E) econodogs- You will find most of the regulars are 'econodogs'. If you don't know what an econodog is- get out from under your rock and visit http://www.econodog.cjb.net/ (RIP)

    explicit language- used often by board regulars- if you don't like it I suggest not sticking around

    Eddie Vedder- A man who brings out the true colors in all the regulars, a classic example is Joel who was able to face up to the fact that he was bi because of Ed (with a little help from his great mate Piz)

    EMI- The man of non-pf quotes and poems. Also very good with music trivia.

    Ebay- The on-line auction site which leaves us all broke and/or angry

 

F) fazine- Something we were all annoyed into contributing to

    fights- We see many of these on the board, there are many people out there with big tough claws

    Fingers (the)- Members of the band

 

G) gods- By some of the comments left on the board it seems some people confuse Powderfinger from being a band and think they are masters of some newly formed religion.

 

H) homosexuality- Something which Ian was once accused of practicing with Placebo's Brian Molko. Of course all has been honestly denied.

    Hash Cookies- We're all waiting for them Darren... Where are they?

 

I) Ian- The name Ian posts under, oh I love to see originality! (will be in orange)

    Inter- Internationalist abbreviated

    imposters- People who pose as others by posting under one of the regular's names, often degrading the person.

 

J) Jaxter- One of the highly respected shit-stirrers of the board. Voted by herself as the oldest regular around

    Janet- Another highly respected shit-stirrer, though she's a little quieter than Jax is

    Jess, Jessica, Jesska, Jessika- Who's who you ask? I don't think they can even work it out, but they're all there! Jesska (along with Kat set up the fanzine (see 'f')

   JLS - only JC lover. She's wierd.. Not that there's anything WRONG with that...

 

K) Kerry- Perhaps the most respected of all the regulars. Well she's defiantly the best looking anyway! She's good at talking herself up too! Well known for making numerous typos in all her posts, and also for falling pregnant to unknown fathers.

    Kat - Creator (along with Jesska) of the fanzine (see 'f')

L) Lucy, Lucie, Looce- Another ever popular name, probably more popular than Jessica

(see 'J')

    lesbians- The idea is often hinted at in some posts.. well there are hardly any guys on the board to get smutty with!

    lie- Something regulars on the board NEVER do!

 

M) mullet- A term often used to describe the hair-style which Darren is currently supporting... Even though its not this.. SHORT AT THE TOP, LONG AT THE BACK GUYS!

    Mains- A song by Powderfinger which is often talking about on the board. Found on Living Type single

    Marky Mark- Some really hot guy who has all the regulars drooling over him.

 

N) Naive Bree- Originally known as just Bree, this was a character who lived a very sheltered life. She became Naive Bree when Bree (see 'B') entered the discussion board and caused some confusion

   Natalie- Resident PFDB Poet! She rocks!

 

O) O#5- Odyssey Number Five abbreviated

    oi- 'Oi'pic, Cap'oi'city, Thrill'oi'logy...

    orange- After a huge surge of imposters on the guys, the website maintainers decided to make it that all posts by Powderfinger would appear in orange. Though Bernard doesn't like to work that way, he's into staying white. By the way don't try and crack the code of becoming orange by used #00032 or whatever to make you appear orange, it just DOESN'T work!

 

P) Powderfinger- What initially draws people to the board, but soon you will find yourself keeping clear of this topic while on there

    pf- Powderfinger abbreviated

    parables- Parable For Wooden Ears abbreviated

    Paul Pittico- Powderfinger's manager

    Puppy- Conversations turn into puppies whenever the boys get online. (Weren't you at the chat!?)

   Puppy Dog Eyes- Ian sports a pair of these everyday! He's won many awards for them!

 

Q) questions- Many unknown people get on the board for the first and probably last time to ask a question about the band which are answered by regulars. After reading the replies left by the regulars they will often come out of the experience with no more knowledge on the question they asked, but also totally confused.

 

R) red days- Once upon a time the Powderfinger website had a bright red background. The older board regulars refer to this time as the 'red days' as opposed to 'good old days'

    Rochelle- The bitch of the board

    regular- Someone who reads and posts on the board often

 

S) sarcasm- There are NEVER traces of sarcasm on the board.. Everything that is posted is true and is never meant to me taken as a joke

    shameless plug- Seems everyone finds the board to be the perfect place to post up shameless plugs, and why not!?

    sexual references- Well sexual fantasies anyway...

    Stubbs & Stumps- The sisters of pure whit and smut. Loved by many, hated by many more :oP

    short- Apparently the majority of the regulars consider themselves to be quite short.

 

T) Tania- Ian's sexy bikini wearing maid

    teenie bopper- Something we are all very defensive over, but that's only because deep down we know we all are one.

    tool- Something everyone on the board must be prepared to be called at one time while they are there

    tours- always creates much discussion. If its an Australian tour you have the million, 'Oh my god last night was so amazing!', the one hundred, 'I MET POWDERFINGER!', and the three, 'Oh why did my mum and dad have to be such tightarses.. I SO badly wanted to go!' posts per day.   But then if it's an OS tour everyone complains that they're not touring Oz.

 

U) underpants- The item of clothing I am guessing Cogs finds most uncomfortable- he's always relieving himself from them at any given opportunity by bearing his arse whenever he can

 

V) Vic- The famous Darren interviewer girl :oP  She also does a fair bit of shit stirring

 

W) wisdom- Something all regulars are full of, its just decided that there is no need to share it with anyone else

Y) yum- An expression which is used to describe both food and the Powderfella's on the board

 

Z) zzz- Sometimes reading the board can send you to sleep due to extreme boredom. That's right its not always as exciting as it should be
