-Neil wants to give you 10 pounds of haiku!  
+Neil calls started when a group of Hamiltonites imitated their favourite TV show -- TerranceAndPhillip.  
  
-''Aborted effort .%%%  
-Close all that you have worked on .%%%  
-You ask far too much .''  
+They 'd wander down the street saying in perfect Canadian "Yah a dick", "No, Yah a dick!" etc ... 
  
-AddToMe
+This mutated so when someone mentioned something (eg: a dirty old car) people would reply (Again in perfect Canadian) "Yah a dirty old car" etc ...  
+  
+''this was primary neil doing this?''  
+  
+This continued on until someone mentioned something "good", eg: "That's pretty sweet", you couldn't reply with "Yah pretty sweet", people might start making unfounded assumptions, so instead the first Neil call was made, "Neil thinks Yah pretty sweet". After a while the canadian accent was dropped.  
+  
+This stuck, and to this day if you say something, chances are someone will say "Neil thinks you're ....". Other frequent varients (usually used as a response) is "Neil wants to give you ten pounds of ....", and, if you're MattCairns, then the third varient is "Neil wants to give you ten pounds of ....... in the ASS!".  
+  
+This is of course highly immature. So what? :)
