Hello !

Quote by Aladdin'sLampAre you suggesting i suggested a suggestion box ?
I think that i noticed in a post from Dino the other day that he felt it would be a good idea to have what amounts to a suggestions box.

Does anyone drive a wanker in this country and does anyone know of any similar gaffes?

ya tree huggin' hippy.....
Don't do any of the conservation stuff, but only because i'm a lazy git.. and the pub sounds better...
Anyhows... if i won the lottery, it's my ambition to plant 7 forests... of about 2 acres each...
all quite close together... a bit of grassland betwixt each one... various species of trees, a nice little habitat for wild life... badgers could go a'badgering, foxes could play with the wabbits... birds would tweet from the trees and people could frolick...
and from the air it would read...............
FUCK OFF
and then i'd buy the next OS map!
Quote by postieme too postie, all the above
oh! stop me when i start ranting....
Or when Dino turns up....
Re-cycling. It's too bloody easy! There is nothing in my house that doesn't get re-cycled... excepting about 5% of stuff thats impossible to re-use/ re-cycle. My wheelie bin (and i only have one) is put out about once every three weeks with it less than a third full.
All plastics go to the local plastics company for re-use. And if you ever bother to collect your one-use plastics, you'll see how much of the wheelie bin that takes up! Plastic shopping bags, try not to use them, but when i have to re-use them and then the surplus is taken to the corner shop for them to re-use.
I have a compost bin for everything that is organic. mostly veg peelings but also cardboard and stuff (the worms love it!)
I have two bins attached to drainpipes for collecting rainwater.
All tins, glass, newspaper, leaflets, junk mail (delivered to me!) clothes and old shoes go to the re-cycling drop off when i go shopping.
I try and buy organic as it tastes better, but it's true it is sometimes too expensive. I am mainly veggie, and all my lightbulbs are longlife, powersaving types...
corks from wine bottles go to the old girl next door for her chinchilla to chew....
the diesel in my car is bio-diesel made from rapeseed oil...
Blimey... if i was any greener, i'd be Kermit the fecking Frog....
Bizarrely, I don't vote Green... (except as a protest vote)
Lastly... and to keep a long rant very short... i don't have kids... but for those of you who do... try and leave this planet in a better state, you kids don't deserve to inherit a planet fucked up by your wanton waste of finite resources...
Quote by equi-princessmy point exactly
A mild form of barracking takes place here as in all walks of society..... as long as it is taken in good part.... no-one is offended...
It almost seems to be a rite of passage that new members have to travel through... and when other members take the mickey out of you.... you know you're acccepted...
I do agree though, that all mickey taking should be in the 'friendly banter' style and not out and out complete piss taking....

Quote by Dino.i hate to have to quote myself but my point was not to have a go at the light hearted piss taking type banter that goes on but more of what i put in my first post (see above), on a very regular basis.
And a small minority who as far as i can see,, trawl the forums for no other reason than to flame, be-little, humiliate, ridicule and rip the piss out of other posters.
IMHO.!

Only cos youre over 40 with a hairy bits and a beer belly nastycats!
Quote by Dino.Sorry but i think there is a big difference between what your talking about and sheer vindictive nasty sarcasm.
If i remember correctly HC, i made the transition from newbie to regular with a bit of piss taking with you, postie and horny red in the infamous 'Miserable Cat Bastard' incident. well i'm still here, your still here, reds still here & we are all having having a good laugh with each other most days. no one has told me they find my posts offensive, if they do i'm happy to listen

Think of it another way. A newbie posts "hi" and are often unsure what to say or how to follow it up. A piss take gives them the ideal opportunity to respond and join in.
If you dont have a sense of humour of some sort, this place probably isnt for you.
Or, again think of it differently. You are a single guy looking for success, what better way of standing out than having a laugh with people?
Give it a go, you might like it! :

Yes...piss taking does go on......most of the time it is in good fun....usually a baptise of fire just to see if they have a sense of humour, it gets nasty is when the true colour of the of the poster come's out.....alot of people can spot a troll a mile off!
Quote by majicmountaini aint sittin on the step in a tiny pinny. If im being the doorman i want a big coat and a flask of hot soup, and dont you girls walk of with my flask thinkin its an Anne Summers tartan dildo either
Hey Debbie you have to have some male waiters at your party. I can look after the team. We can be butt naked except for little tiny pinnies(?).

I've nothing against casual sex, but if that's all it is then people shouldn't dress it up with expressions of undying love. (For real!) I tend to hear such things and get confused, y'know? And ladies, if you wake up the next morning and it's all being a horrible mistake, then picking up the phone when it rings and saying "hi, look I'm sorry, I might have got a wee bit carried away last night..." is the absolute best way of handling it. Blame it on the beer if it makes it more credible. Much better than just letting me keep ringing and ringing and not picking up.
