Lord Nuneaton Savage in the Supervillain Monopoly thread:
Get the T-Rex from "Dizzy Dizzy Dinosoaur" (He's a silly beast, to say the least) dress it up as Galactus and have a card that causes it to randomly spin about the board, leveling buildings and knocking over characters.

Worth it mainly for wiping the smug face off whoever was winning.

I think that The Bulleteer is by far and away the most hottest of the 7 soldiers so far, apart from possibly Zatanna (who, lovely lady though she is, I could never marry... It's just... well I just don't think I could,) and Frankenstein.

How does everyone else feel?

Alex's ability to make people take his posts at face value is a beautiful thing.

cube finds hir feet in the SHUT UP, GAIMAN! thread:

"I really don't think, for instance, black people and white people will ever really get on or like each other

SHUT UP MORRISSEY!

I'm beginning to get the appeal."

And a little later...

"But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

SHUT UP JESUS!

This is fun."

That second one has been tickling my funny bone for four days now. Happy Holidays to ya, cube!

I know of plenty of other boards which have their share of "articulate" right-wingers. In practise of course either their logic or their veneer of human decency always fails in the end, but they maintain what passes for civility well enough to be seen as respectable.

Flyboy should be on Thought for the Day at least once in this lifetime.

Flyboy should be on thought for the day every day dude.

I read this post without reading the post above it, and it's hilarious. I think it's only funny out of context, of course.

I'm sorry for any offence caused by that post. Glasgow is, of course, not a "town", but a "toon".

Jings!

Crivens!

Helpmaboab!

Ha ha, I don't get it.

It's from noted Scottish cartoon strip Oor Wullie. i think it was the character Soapy who used the 'Jings...' catchphrase.

I didn't find it funny. At all.

Maybe you should try reading Finderwolf's post a bit further up, Duncs. It probably won't help, but at least I have successfully performed due diligence.

The city of Barbelith is described as having 2 kinds of residents: one half of them are mute, the other are disembodied voices, endlessly screaming and carrying on. Monk

I barbequote that, Evil Scientist. What kind of weird freak were you before you were a man?

It's the age-old question, isn't it? Is pwning kids ever really acceptable?

Oh Stoatie, you're already such a quotewhore, but I just can't help myself.

The Falcon

13:34 / 21.12.05

Oh, just to clarify, I was being... wry? something like, above. Not really irate as I was pretending to be. Hard to make it clear.

I thought the separated. Sentence might help do so.

The Falcon

13:37 / 21.12.05

Oh, and a quote while we're here. I'm hesitant to encourage this sort of behaviour, but this really aptly summarises why I don't have anything to add to the Children! threads. Flyboy's thought for the day:

I think the crucial point here is that until Tom Tit a) changes his godawful username, and b) stops reacting in such a shrieking hysterical defensive fashion on the subject of children, these discussions are unlikely to progress much further...

Shrug

21:01 / 21.12.05

More from that thread.

it's the children that are making you fight.

can't you see it?

the children.

Perfectly timed.

Ahem.

"Duncan -->)]F[(<-- "

I do hope that such support for a snide comment from FB about usernames (let alone your enshrining it here) is in some way ironic or at least conscious of its innate pot-and-kettleyness. We ALL have pretty strange usernames, and it's usually understood and accepted we have good reason for them.
For me, that post was the moment the thread officially went beyond rescue.

Ganesh

21:47 / 21.12.05

I think it was a fairly hard-to-rescue premise from the start, particularly coming so soon after the related WSPTOTC threads.

■

21:55 / 21.12.05

I know, but I'm annoyed that such a cheap and petty insult has been held up as worthy of barbequotes.

Ganesh

21:58 / 21.12.05

Quite a few of the Barbequotes leave me cold, for various reasons, but hey ho, such is life.

The Falcon

23:11 / 21.12.05

For me the premise of the first post & abstract placed the thread some way beyond rescue. My own username will be super fucking awesome when I can fix it.

<-- This here, this is a mistake.

If you, or indeed Tom, wish to chat about this further, Cube, you are perfectly welcome to pm me anytime.

weddunderance in the So what'd y'all get for Christmas? thread:

"Actually, yes, I did (inadvertantly) make someone else cry - my g/f's 4 yr old nephew. His eyes lit up on xmas eve when she arrived at her sister's, the evil Lord Vladek's lego castle in tow. How it must have stung when she told him it was for me."

So simple, so sweet.

the US went to war just as the Sun entered Aries, which is ruled by Mars, god of war. They had also been talking a lot about the planet just prior as well, as they were driving remote controlled cars around on it.

On Kali's return:

a) ...but Kali, I don't recall your ever having to take the ritualistic ass-candling initiation, and it HAS been a long time so...

b) Kali comes from a time when the jokes were new and funny.

c) There were giants in those days...

d) All times are present simultaneously.

Petey Shaftoe's von Mises Christmas thread sends chills down the spine:

The Spirit Of Christmalith Past

"Von Mises, dude, whattupp! Eleven! I have many names, but you can call me the Spirit of Christmalith Past, you ass-eating pussy preacher!!! Come with me and I will show you visions of your past, which will totally fuck with your mind and help you see out of your current reality tunnel, which is totally fucking bogus! Twenty-three!!!"
