    I’m smug and insufferable on forums

    I compile lists of people on forums.. Funnily enough you’re on it, but for some reason you are number 2 on the section marked cool people so you must have done something during my brief period here that wasn’t insufferable..

    Unfortunatey I also have the early onset of altzheimers so totally forget why now..

    Jesus would in this day and age have to have adapted tot he modern age, he’d be holding sermons explaining how he was composed from particles subject to electromagnetism and that his father was the biggest magnet and y’all were little magnets and if you didn’t all do the right thing the other bad magnet would get you and you and Gary Gilter would spend eternity together..

    Had an ebay fest, sold a lot of stuff i no longer use.
    Started charging for some articles I write instead of doing it for free..
    Don’t eat out as much. Bulk up on Muelsi for breakfast don’t go out for lunch.
    Don’t rent or buy dvd’s engage in dodgy download practises.
    Don’t buy bike mags, use internet stuff like Imbikemag and places like this for infotainment have even sadly cancelled my sub to MacUser which I’ve had forever.
    Drink Halves not pints
    Don’t drive fast watch the fuel computer like Hawk
    Only do sports where the ride is free..(Bike and windsports)
    Cancelled my membership of Bondage weekly..

    Life is tough.

    Hmm tricky one, if she’d been a dog it would be easy, you could have had my ex wifes name she was a complete female dog.

    Don’t they call those things ‘tabatha’ anyway?

    The sun radiates an entire spectrum some of which we perceive and have named colours, they only occur by reflection or refraction. So technically the sun has no colour, it merely generates the means by which we create colour from our own senses..

    aldi were selling those lycra skull caps when i was in yesterday.they were for running but still do a job.i used it today under a buff that came in this months mtb,uk.sorted…..

    Straight on the ‘list’ with you then.. Aldi what is it with you uncool people..

    Buffs are also extremely suspect, i’m awaiting advice from the Chief Commissioner (Style Police) they’ve had this forum on their radar for some time.. Principly under the heading ‘totally uneccassary use of lycra and spandex by grown men’.

    Hey young Mr Consequence who still heads the uncool section of said ‘list’ there is another section(s), marked minor or even major cock, don’t make me move you further down, when you were doing so well, and nearly got upgraded to cool people, one day you could even be elevated to the level of forum deity along with Camo16…

    My time here is nearly at an end, and i shall have to report back to F.U.U.K. (Forum Users U.K.) having been despatched here following a complaint from one of our founder members..and the list is nearing completion..

    Many years ago to continue to treat the world to as naked a treat as the incredibly good looking face of joy can produce, I purchased a set of Professional Wahl beard trimmers, they’ve lasted incredibly well and when the upper level became decidedly reluctant to sprout they proved useful in that regard.

    So if it’s designer stubble chin or bonse, they are the mutts nuts.

    If only I could find an electric razor their equal..

    I’d look at it as good news personally, and think about the dozens that didn’t get that far, unless of course you are coming from another job already in which case you tell them to stuff it.

    Every job my daughters obtained came from temp work, where they got hired, it’s an easier way for employers to really assess the dross that comes from education these days..

    At least it’s a job and they’re not offering an ‘internship’, the latest euphemism for slavery

    Lose it, got rid of mine, never looked back, wimmen don’t like them..

    That is patently false. The Joy of Sex clearly illustrated the fact that ‘wimmen’ think they’re groovy.

    See here.

    Out of date thinking, trust me, I know everything there is to know about wimmen..
    Body hair of all types is out these days…
    Even chest hair, of which I’m proud.
    Sad but true I fear..

    Except up north of course… Wimmen up there obey different rules. 😉

    Changed my mind you need more beard practise.

    Until you can grow a proper one.

    Then maybe you’ll need to lose it.

    Wasn’t it yesterday? Isn’t today the preparation for the other bit that I can’t pronounce, their new year. I wished my chum up the paper shop happy diwali yesterday (he had his caste mark on). It’s a happy festival of light victory over dark, a bit early over here, ours takes place around Dec 21st and Christians jumped on it to promote the birth of their prophet.

    Nothing to stop you celebrating with them, they certainly don’t mind, Hinduism is a very broad church which is more than can be said for a certain other religion, they just haven’t commercialised it to the extend the Judaeo Capitalists have ours, happy holidays…

    Nice pics lowey, but that light on the top of your helmet doesn’t look cool and could get knocked off by a branch, thus it ruins the effect for me…

    I like when it’s over, nothing like spring when the trails start bursting into life, before the nettles and brambles crud them up.

    Winter? Nothing it’s cold dark miserable and lasts too long I hate it, get SAD syndrome and will in all probability kill myself this year I’m so fed up.

    Then again maybe I’ll buy myself another light.

    I’m finding this hurtful and insensitive and to be honest I prefer dogs to muslims in general.

    But If I say something hateful about a muslim likely I’ll get banned or even arrested come to think of it.

    Something curiously out of balance don’t you think, even for a racist such as myself.

    Not to mention hurtful remarks about short folk, like that poor M. Sarkozy calling him a dwarf, why is that not as bad as calling someone by the n word for example.. It could be argued that muslim is a life choice whereas a persons height (like colour) isn’t, nor is being a dog.

    A forum of tough men happy to line up against helpless animals, yet rail against anyone speaking out against what is potentially an enemy of our way of life…

    Or is this a discussion for another thread?

    Or have I totally lost the plot with this place?

    Sadly it’s all a little dull. No undying declarations of love or short term passion, just one drunk person not opening their mouth when a friend would have. Attempted apology in the days after but after bumping into each other (work day, no chance to talk), it’s clear there’s something not right. Still only happened a couple of weeks back. Consensus seems to be, talk about it.

    Is this a girlie thing? You need to go out for girlie lunch, talk about it then end up smiling at each other and never talking or evil-ling each other for ever after, either way the relationship is already screwed forget it and move on.

    You’re a bloke? Just **** apologise, it’ll all be forgotten the next day. (If it’s your fault), if it’s not, clock him then apologise = same result

    Agree with Stuey, who’s funeral is it and what is your level of respect/love for that individual and what would they have worried about what you looked like in life..

    I religiously suit up for Funerals, even my mothers not that long ago, but I remember thinking then why, she wouldn’t have worried, I never suited up especially for her in real life, so why do we do it, more for the rest of the folk at the funeral i guess and respect for the occasion.

    Blue and Black doesn’t work, only on a bruise, go with the Charcoal.

    Hello, I must have missed this last week during my enforced absence due to alleged racism, (careful what you say some of them are mean PC and love pikey gypsys.)

    I’m also relatively new (less than a month) there are some really fun threads, I’ve learned lots of stuff I didn’t know and there are some really talented and clever people here, amongst the male chickens. 😉

    Not really my place to say, but welcome anyway..

    Do the professional thing, at the end of the day they want you to make money for them presumably, either flogging stuff, or training folk, either way, we punters want nice young respectable men to abuse about the crap <insert product> we just bought/rented and it broke.

    My first SLR was a Pentax, the Spotmatic, in its day ’66 way ahead of the field, then later Nikon came along and then Canon. They I believe used metal leaf vertical focal plane shutter that enable flash sync beyond 60th of a second which was a bit of a drag with that horizontal rubber silk affair.

    I can’t remember the exact history of how it was that Pentax lost their way, but I’ve had Nikon ever since, got a fairly good Nikon f4s sitting in a billingham bag collecting dust if anyone could give me a good reason and a sensible offer to give it a good working home..
