That's a terrible thing to say about Raskolnikov (proud owner of a DVD copy of the original - 1975 - Deathrace 2000 movie). Or, maybe, he watched it and gifted it to Oxfam. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It wasn't a precedent then either, no? Hell no, the only precedent is that we offer a prize and keep it cheap and cheerful. It's to the credit of our second winner that s/he chose a charity donation, since when that's been the norm, along with all the good-natured joshing and general "well done but you need to get a life" style congratulations that pour onto the winner. After which, the thread is rightfully left to sink into oblivion hereabouts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deathray 2,940 Posted February 28, 2015 Q - Who led the peasants revolt? A - Wat Tyler/ Q - Who led the pedants revolt? A - Which Tyler The ardent pedant often falls. Reminds me of when Nerina Pallot seems to have sung, "Safire, Safire, his typo is higher". That joke is dead obscure and not funny, but I'm proud of it.
