The Great Cornholio 902 Posted March 8, 2022 17 hours ago, Kenny McCormick said: Lynda Baron has died at 82. Most you older guys will probably best know her from Open All Hours but the millennials of DL, myself included, will recognise her from Come Outside. Clearly I'm not with the inside knowledge group that read every single topic in the forum, maybe someone said it already on the seemingly irrelevant death thread or whatever... Facepalm me all you want, it only shows you guys as bitter, old and intolerant of outsiders. And you guys wonder why this site barely gets anyone new contributing to it... 4 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In fact, I fall under the age group that would recognise Lynda Baron from Come Outside. I just thought your random, unprovoked jab at older members was completely weird and unnecessary.

I just thought your random jab at older members was completely weird and unnecessary. Much like your entire contribution to this forum. A jab? To suggest that most older members haven't seen Come Outside? That falls under logic, which is something you dont often bring to this forum. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once again I'll say that IMO all deaths should be posted in the "Dead of XXXX" thread as it should be a one-stop record of the year's fatalities. No matter that they may also be posted in more specific threads. 30 minutes ago, Kenny McCormick said: A jab? To suggest that most older members haven't seen Come Outside?

Considered to be one of those classic BBC childrens TV shows. The cutoff between millennial and Gen Z is unclear (the cutoff range being 1994-2000) so it was on when you were younger but you probably missed it (eg. I'm the same age as you and I never saw veggie tales or blues clues, even though most our age claim to have seen those shows growing up). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
