From the Sticky at the top of Le Cafe:
5. Do not use genital shots in your Avatar or in photos posted.
Your Avatar is the little picture you can upload to your profile that will end up next to each post you make. It will also be seen on your forum profile page. You can post more or less whatever you like in the Photo Ads section of this site, and you are more than welcome to link to any ads you have in your signature but please:
1. No cocks or kebabs in either posts or avatars.
The AUP doesn't refer directly to thread posts. However, I'm sure a mod will be along to clarify if the cafe sticky is now obsolete, and has been overlooked.
BTW I was trying to help.
Ste, genital pics aren't allowed in the forum matey.
Good shot though! :thumbup:
Firstly, this comes from the person least likely to watch a football match, ever. It's not that I deplore the game per-se, just all the hype that surrounds it. No football player is "worth" 17.4 gazillion pounds, some bellybutton fluff and a crunchie bar- but that's another point entirely.
I grew up not a million miles away from Liverpool, in a very working class family. My background is close to that of many at that match. The events of that day bought me to tears then, and reading Res' post almost saw a repeat of them.
There are many people who should be ashamed of their behaviour that day. Not least the "reporters" involved. It's no wonder the people of Liverpool are still so steadfast in their boycotting of the Sun.
My only real "point" is this, and it's to anyone doubting that the authorities could be capable of covering up in this manner. Believe it. I would have doubted it once, but when you see it first hand from the inside it shakes your belief in everything that you thought was just in the world.
I hope those affected are close to some sort of closure.
I had a friend who went grey- and I mean completely- at the age of 19. She never once died her hair. She had a lovely husband, two great kids and when I met her was embarking on her second degree for a career change at the age of 45. It hadn't held her back because she chose not to let it.
It's all about having the balls to go against the crowd if that's what you want to do. The warped idea of "perfection" we are all encouraged to aspire to will only ever change if people don't buy it.
I've been dying my hair all sorts of colours since I was 16- when I decide I'm ready to let it all hang out & go grey I will, without a thought for what others may think.
