  1. ...yes, and they're already covered in sheite....
  2. I would have demanded a refund. Me too. Unless I was low on toilet paper that is
  3. Oh boy! What is it about his art that you don't like guys? Seriously. To me, that's like saying you don't like breathing or something?
  4. I'll send you two the full letter by PM tomorrow. Ditko's a cranky one alright, but I'm convinced he gets a kick out of sending these replies.
  5. I'm with NamesJay - it makes you feel like you're not posting in the dark when you get a 'proper' like (i.e. one where the person leaving it is simply showing appreciation for what you said rather than trying to follow some agenda). I didn't like the likes at first (being serious for once) as the anonymity and misuse didn't work for me. Now the anonymity has been put right, and I've got over myself re the misuse, I'm fine with them and indeed use them often. I do prefer to leave a comment if I can, but I'm OK leaving just a like now as I know the recipient knows it's me leaving it. I don't think the system is working as the powers that be envisaged it would, but that's not a reason to dislike it in my view. We're the members and we can use it as we want to, as long as its within board rules. I don't see it as a means to promote 'valuable' posts. Just a means to say "Hey, I like what you did there, thanks". It can lift spirits, especially for newbies who sometimes get little encouragement. Last night I was in stupid mucking about mode, trying to get 100 posts in one day to change my board title (yes, I'm a plonker, I know, I just hope an occasionally amusing one). I went ages without a single response and was getting deflated. No one wanted to play. Then Spike gave me a like out of the blue and, perhaps bizarrely for a grown man, my mood went straight back up. Call me soppy if you want, but liking something is good. It's better than hate, every day of the week. And if anyone thinks my 'reasons for hate' thread is hateful, they need to read more carefully. @Architecht - the same troll that mucked you about the other night gave me 11 likes when I challenged him/her/it. Can you remove them please? I'd like all my likes to be 'real' ones. Thanks
  6. Thanks BOM - just looked her up - I can see why!
  7. Does anyone want to talk about pence variants tonight?
  8. Does anyone want to talk about Australian variants tonight?
  9. Yeah, but look, he's got this big wheel thing and it can go along with him in it, right? I mean if that ain't the definition of danger then I don't know what is?
  10. Imagine both in the same issue! Oh, wait.....
  11. Whatever happened to Garry Bushell? He was the sort who would ask questions like "how many posts does it take for a thread to become popular around here?" Garry Bushell......
  12. I log out for 10 minutes to eat me dinner, log back in and my thread has been hijacked by the rat pack! ? I quite like that actually
