En Passant

If you used this from the first post. It works. If you follow it up with a request to see if it got there, add in a few choice expletives, that should get a response in kind if nothing else. As indicated above, I got a few words

, Don't send an edited version of the ddp template...I did indeed get an email reprisal for that one. Oh, and for submitting past midday on the 31st. But honestly happy to say Deathers is his usual charming self.

You did that on purpose.

I know who Rio Ferdinand is. I'm not completely out of touch But I still don't care how many kids he's got. To be fair, football isn't really my thing, and Scottish football clearly even less so. As for girl bands.....

Mailed a team in bit ago, I'll risk the possible email reprisals.

I think I spent 6-8 minutes per day during the last 1 days. But it's my first entry and I'll have a yardstick for next year. Might have helped had I read the points scoring system.

Who the fuck are these people? Whoever they are I seriously wish these fucking people would stop, er, fucking.

Don't do that. Losingest* team just submitted. *Yes, there's a point to this term, there are many who will know what that point is.

38? There goes my podium.... The more the merrier then, cause if there's 39 it's one more chance of not being last, and if I'm last anyway, well last is last it'll make no difference if that's of 38 or 39. Tis the season to be jolly after all.

DQ him then. No more dads.

You'll notice I have not used up all my reactions for the day... Not going to pass up any opportunity barfing at that thread. Not one.

Such a Gallic, no wait, Neapolitan, phrase. Or not.

And not a frenchman from Dublin. Ok.

No, it actually isn't. To misquote either Edmund Burke or John Stuart Mill, depending on your view...'All it takes for bad men to triumph is good men to do nothing'. Sure, that's taking it to the extreme, but the point stands, if you allow people to simply insult all around them without check, they'll think it's ok. It isn't.

I'm really not, I've jousted with your type too often to be. You are being (and yes, so does he on occasion, though often with more panache than you've exhibited so far, but trading insults is just trading insults). Inevitable insult, score.

If it is, it's a pretty good sock really, only somebody of your undoubted intellect has spotted it. Bothered? Good god no. But you're being aggressive for no particularly good reason and I'm calling you on it since a fair few won't want the inevitable insults. I call SC on it too when he is, when I'm not him that is.

Well, you've been here a year. Given SC's posting frequency (more often than raindrops in a thunderstorm) and online persona (he's American and if he were as combative IRL as he is in here somebody would have shot him by now) it's hard to imagine anyone hanging around here for 12 months and not having a clue who he is or that for most of that year he hasn't been Sir Cunto. It's inconsistent to claim that a) you don't really know who he is, yet also b) all his posts are puerile. The two are incompatible. That's an impressive hit rate of aggression from a total of 37 posts and they may not be the only 3 as I'm not bothering to look up the previous 34. There's something about being named Kenny maybe......

Can I ask that when people's names are changed either they or the mod/admin with an edit, changes the request post to include the original name? 'Cause it confuses the living fack out of me when somebody clearly has a posting history but I'm wracking my limited brain power to remember as who before the change. It's bad enough when ppl change their avatar, I then spend absolutely minutes trying to remember what the previous one was. Names....argh.

An American, currently (or at least recently) in Scotland. Got to expect it really. Mind, the Union Carbide reference is a bit farther than I'd go. Length of the M1 farther actually.

BRIAN BLESSED! Somebody was going to. TQR's description is halfway there, but it really demands a bit more ooomph!!

Quality post. There are posters hereabouts whose entire output hasn't reached these heights. Bit of self deprecatory humour always makes me smile.

And there was me dismissing those stories linking Covid to 5g masts as fuckwittery of the highest order indulged in only by complete cranks. Shows what I know.
