    Anything on the BBC that involves numbers or their interpretation can not be trusted. There is always a stronger force pushing banality towards us, giving us a constant dumbing down of the situation. Perhaps the popularity lists may well be working however and say one or two reads have promoted a story onto the list, the rest of them are there from three reads, the writer, the editor and the journalist on the desk next to the writer. Have you noticed with the Sky and BBC news notifications how one follows the other with a delay of about a minute with very little difference in the message. Surely some connection.

     

    You've made eight posts in six years, two of which were about your hatred of BBC organizational politics. Are you Noel Edmonds?

     

    No, but I have great respect for Mr Blobby one of their more intellectual correspondents.

     

    Are you Robert Peston?

     

    That is an insult, I will happily ignore anything that Peston puts forward post his involvement in the banking meltdown several years ago. His father of course, a faller this year, deserves more respect. Peston in my opinion is just a pretentious gobby upstart.

     

    Are you Gordon the Gopher?

     

    No, that's me... on the left.

  2. A vicar on a fishing trip fell in the lake and he couldn't swim. When a boat came by, the captain yelled, "Do you need help ?" The vicar calmly said "No, God will save me."

    A little later, another boat came by and a fisherman asked, "You alright mate.. do you need help?" The vicar replied again,

    "No God will save me."

    Eventually the vicar drowned & went to heaven. He asked God, "Why didn't you save me?"

     

    God replied, "You idiot. I sent you two boats!"

    Another pet hate is Internet forum members who hold grudges for no apparent reason.

    Psychological nightmare. Life's too short.. get over it & move on ffs.

    So who has pissed on your chips then??

     

    Oh it's this flippin' Canadian woman on FB. Basically she's been whingeing/whining/moaning about fellow FB Criminal Case players not posting up these 'Potato Chips' links when a player reaches a certain level. She threatens to defriend any FB Criminal Case player who doesn't post up these 'valuable' freebies. Two days ago I reached a said level.. she noticed I hadn't bothered to post these 'Potato Chips' on my FB wall.. got a message from her asking why I hadn't posted them up.. I told her to 'F**k off & get a life'.. but she didn't unfriend me.. which was odd.

     

     

    Anyway, I've unfriended & blocked her on FB. So your wordage was along the right lines.. she was pissed off 'cos I didn't have any chips.

    Ain't got time for treading on forum-eggshells.

    Bar that.. all's ticketty-boo yer Lordship. :)

    Janet's preggers.

    She married a billionaire....who would have seen that kid coming......as kids these days say #gold#digger

     

    Yeah, she'll be a first time mum at 50.

     

    So, she waited a while, then

    She's clearly as fucking mental as all the other Jacksons. A 50 year old fanny is roadkill enough without ruining it further by squeezing out a nine pound ball of weirdness.

     

    It'll probably moonwalk out of her minge sporting a ginger afro.

    How can anyone want another human being to be shot? Andy and Jamie both went through that terrible ordeal. Can you imagine how scared they must've been?

    I'd like Oscar Pistorius to be shot, since there doesn't seem to be much prospect of him ever serving a proper murder sentence in an actual prison.

    Again, I would

    Again.... I really wouldn't.
    Some people have no sense of adventure.

    Only because my wife wouldn't approve.

    Just shoot her in the face next time she goes for a dump, she'll be none the wiser then.

    Normally I would oblige.. but one place I would not want to be when Mrs Taters is having 'a good clearout' is the toilet. It is true that the bathroom stinks more once a woman has had a darn good shit.

    I ought to be a shareholder in Febreze.

    British veteran actors Geoffrey Bayldon ('Catweazel' & also 'The Crowman' in Worzel Gummidge), Sean Connery (The original James Bond & the chap who got his knob out in the 1973 flop-flick Zardoz) & Michael Caine (you're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!') must be nearing the end ?

    Bayldons alive?????

     

     

    90 minutes later & I'm still trying to get the vision of Brian Blessed dressed in 1980 baco-foil out of my head...

    I understand when there's a list/thread/whatever for famous people but in a year we'll be adding ourselves to the list since a bunch of irrelevant non celebrities are getting attention here which is pointless....famous doctors? I know one, Josef Mengele......I'll make a thread for my great grandma who's 88 and bedridden for 10 years or maybe her doctor needs a thread

    Josef Mengele wasn't famous; he was infamous.

     

     

    Hades, Did you know Mengele personally?

     

    We had a bromance back in 1944. I still remember his musky perfume. Saw him last November in Chile. Looks quite good for 105. Not a day older then 75. His son has 2 penises and 3 daughters are midgets.

     

    Does that mean Mengele has two midget penises ?

    Bob Holness was the first to play James Bond. ;)

     

    :banghead: Don't you mean David Niven ? :P

    Id like you to be shot.

    Harsh. David is a warm and caring individual. I would

     

    .. I wouldn't.

    I'm confidently assuming so. 92 & still going strong.. doing what I don't know, but he's probably comatose on Horlicks & Werthers Originals in a nursing home in Berkshire as we type. :smileyd:

     

     

    Well, the 92 bit is accurate.

     

    Sadly he's been in frail health for a number of years.

     

    If he struggles on into 2017 I will be surprised tbh.

     

     

    There have been rumblings about Sean Connery as he was unable to record even a voice over for the Scottish Indy Ref in 2014. Though that might have been because he couldn't be arsed.

     

    Yup, that sounds about right for 'Mr Grumpy'. He's notorious for being awkward.
