Gentlemen! I have the perfect forum for you to undertake such a duel (date and place forthcoming...). Perhaps our beloved admin can add souvenir fight programmes to the DL merch. Please believe me when I say I am not joking, I am prepared to meet Typhoid Harry with sword or pistol or failing these fisticuffs. So come on TH name the place and date, I can manage almost anywhere within ther UK. Who said you were joking? I just wanna watch. You are welcome to watch ie+, I'll have the advantage as pain is no stranger to me.

Indeed, he seems to like taking strict action against members he doesn't like. Most mods just use the warning system but thats obviously not good enough for this twat. Weatherman90, he is itching to ban you so you had better be on your best behaviour. Banshees, stop grovelling. Who the F**k is Typhoid Harry? See you in 24 hours... Seriously though...only been away a week...I'm familiar with Typhoid Harry's name, but why is he suddenly banning people? Typhoid Harry is a tit, end of. Come on TH do your worst you big tough moderator, now if you want to get up close and personal just name the date and place. If you could make the field of honour meeting within 100 miles of London then so much the better. Just in case there is any doubt I am calling you out sir. This is not a joke, I am in deadly earnest.

Fight the good fight BHB, I shall join ye on the barricades, the molotovs are ready for service, just give the word and I'll unleash.

I keep confusing him with Michael Bond, he of Paddington the Bear fame.

Are you trying to get yourself abused? As you wish. So you admit you are abusing your moderator powers, that at least is good. I will continue to speak my mind, I'll not kowtow to you Typhoid Harry.

Notable event: Welcome, member number 2000. didnnt I just sayy thezat? Not anymore, it was (as usual) unreadable. I've warned you via PM, now I'll do it publicly: Unless you can prove you've lost both arms in a tragic accident and are typing with your feet, I'm going to keep deleting your drivel. It's neither funny nor worth reading. When and if you're actually drunk, discombobulated posts can be amusing (Christ knows I do it often enough) but this intential persona is not only boring, its annoying. Enjoy a one day vacation and think about it. I wish to make it quite plain to everyone that Mr Brimley's posts are in no way offensive to me and I am happy to read them whatever my degree of sobriety or otherwise. Does anyone else find them objectionable? Admittedly I didn't see the post to which you refer, but I have so far seen no need to publicly admonish BB. You don't want to say anything that might annoy Typhoid Harry as if you do he'll suspend your posting ability for 24hrs like he did to me, and has recently done to Bruno.

Just for you Bruno, some 50's nostalgia.

By "we" I take it you mean the DL committee, fat chance as the bulk of them seem to be mostly absent these days. Are you suggesting that they should no longer be responsible for the picking the top 50? Do I hear the feint rumble of disatisfaction? Well if this year is anything to go by they have hardly got their collective fingers on the deadpool pulse. Time for some DL moderators/admins to step aside and let others fill their mostly absent shoes. What use is a moderator/admin if they are largely absent?

Gabriele Torsello, Italian photojournalist kidnapped in Afghanistan. I wonder what his chances are if the ransom isn't paid.

Hold yer hands up MPFC. That time you went 'further than far too far'. Even I cringed. Watching Carlisle play is far more offensive than any comment about an expired snooker player ever will be... Happy 60th anniversary death to Hermann Goering, too. And keep up the good work, MPFC, it's all good fun... Happy death day Hermann you fat WWI ace, you did it to yourself before they did it to you. You may have been a Nazi f*ck, but you did keep a good cellar.

It was also the case in the UK and much of Europe. They hanged an unsuccessful suicide in London in the 1800s. Unfortunately, because he had cut his throat he continued to breathe through the wound. The aldermen took him down, bound his neck and hanged him again. Taught him a lesson he'll never forget. It seems to miss the point though. If one really wants to punish a suicide attempt one ought to give the perpetrator life. regards, Hein I suppose they were driven by religion rather than behaviourism. Though, if you are interested in the history, the Bible, unlike the Koran, does not forbid suicide. It was only when the Christians became embarrassed by a suicidal sect called the Donatists (an early version of suicide bombers, only without bombs) that they forbade suicide on the basis that it broke the 'thou shalt not kill' commandment. But that was over 1000 years ago - I'm saying nothing more out of fear of a fatwah. It's all cultural as well, the Japanese practically look on suicide as just another hobby. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/newsnight/4071805.stm

Worse than a dozen consecutive life sentences imo.

surely a cache of sh*t is a more realistic payment for such a crap gameshow format.

If it's your old brain inside the new head then yes, it would still be you. Everything that is uniquely you is contained inside the brain, the body is just a handy way of transporting it. I thought your genes were uniquely you? Wouldn't they survive with a new head? It would still be your sperm, not the head's sperm. You are the sum of your memories and experiences, all else is mere biology.

That might be because you're one of the people who has the most face to lose when people see your post-count. The post-count should be kept visible for precisely that reason; so we can see just how many posts people are slopping out. I don't think loyalty is the issue here, mpfc. Nobody should think that a high post-count is somehow directly proportional to loyalty. I'm sure there are plenty of members who have been "loyal" to the DL for a lot longer than us, whose post-counts are only in double figures. Their posts, however few and far between, have probably been of high quality and nobody's questioning their "loyalty". This loyalty issue is just a smokescreen you've belched out to cover the central issue; that your post-count is excessively high, leading to an overall degradation in the quality. You're a funny, intelligent guy but you spread yourself too thin, consistently. That alone is the issue. Total bollocks, an internet forum relies on regular posters otherwise it's a pretty F*****g pointless exercise. There was no goldenage of DeathList, looking back through all the old threads as I have done previously there was just the same percentage of shite as there is today.

How was your Thanks Giving? Tempus Fugit. I'm currently giving thanks to Labrot and Graham courtesy of their Woodford Reserve. No turkeys were harmed in this endeavour, not even the wild ones. -
With Freddy Fender bound to get a UK obit that's the first points to The Anfield Iron, a unique pick for them.

Oh goody some CPDP points, shame Freddy couldn't hang on for 2007 though, I was hoping for those dead cert DDP points.

The new age circulation hasn't flown through the blood of the canadian people? I thought everybody celebrated Thanks Giving in mid November? Less than 5% of the world celebrate Thanksgiving in November, they're called Americans.
