The answer was shotgun.

Thatd ruin his blue sheeting.

True.

Man Bet X .I hate that logo on the shirt.

Me too.

Cannot wait til we change sponsors.

Tik Tok - quite simply I don't get it, I don't like it and can't understand why grown adults would venture near it.

Your old. I feel 5he same way

I keep hearing the name "Tik Tok", but I actually haven't a clue what it is.

I really don't want to have to Google it. My cousin told me yesterday it was a sort of YouTube/Twitter.

(I actually thought it was a Korean thing!)

Its kids dancing to songs and then posting it. Problem is most of them have become addicted to it and now just randomly dance

Celebs moaning about the flack they receive on social media. Just delete the apps ffs and move on. But if you dance with the devil...

Under the heading of curiosity killed the cat... I had to take a look.

What the actual ****!

Apparently, it’s Chinese.

My latest Meldrew moment,,,

Incredibly noisy motorbikes - is it a Beckenham thing as we seem to be plagued with these posing machines

That new Currys advert with a complete wet quilt c*nt getting a new TV with his bird in tow. Take it Currys ad budget has been slashed. Shocking.

No. Constantly buzzing around South Norwood too. Must have their own private racetrack. Never mind, the old bill will sort them out ..... :rolleyes:

Is there no cap on the noise they are allowed to make? Thought not. Anti-social speed merchants :jerkit:

I love the way he tries a bit of a mockney accent, then abandons it next sentence. What would Nanny think?

Funny enough me and the missus were just talking about this. This afternoon in the Harrington rd area.

Shitty souped up cars are back in vogue too. What does it signify if your exhaust cracks and cackles every 10 seconds? (Apart from you’re a twerp)

A few of the car shows on TV where they customize cars with bloody great engines and exhaust system will install these flaps that can be opened by a switch under the dash by the driver. The effect is as you describe... a car with basically no muffler.

Heard a few around here... it is now the must have thing for arseholes. Also highly illegal, hence the hidden switch to close the flap and quieter the car when the cops are about.

They scare the shit out of me if they rev up anywhere near by.

In a similar vein...not that I took much interest, but it kept poopping up....one of the latest waste of space celebrities being heartbroken, AND having to move house, because her puppy had died.

This terrible tragedy pales into insignificance people dying with the virus, losing their jobs, and having a fecked economy for a decade.

Is there a machine that churns out these vacuous twats?

Why do so many women get lip filler? Hasn’t anyone told them it looks awful. One lady was interviewed on the BBC news this morning and she looked like an older version of Leslie Ash. It’s a right mess.
I know I’m no oil painting, but I wouldn’t want to make it worse.

Things that annoy you
 

Martin Tyler - I’m sure he’s an affable bloke but after watching tonight and as an ex Sky subscriber I’d forgot the often inane stuff he comes out with.

Like Guita lining up in goal for us tonight

6 minutes it took the doddery old fart to realise

It’s baffling isn’t it. All the women I know that have done it look feckin awful and somehow they think it looks great. I’m just too polite to tell them that they genuinely looked perfectly beautiful to me before. It’s some form of body dysmorphic disorder. The ageing process is difficult to take, especially in a world where the superficial and image seems more important than ever unfortunately.

I switched on a music channel the other day and it had a boy band special. Left it on as it was a change from CBeebies for my daughter and she appeared to be enjoying it. But it was just one video after another of young boys just showing off cringeworthingly in front of the camera, in various ‘sexy’ poses. I just thought ‘wtf has happened to our society that these pricks prancing about like that are considered cool or normal? Totally and utterly embarrassing, talentless twerps masquerading within a field that should be showcasing real musicians and talent. I know I sound like an old git but what message does that sh*t send out to young impressionable minds?

Yes noticed that. He’s been for me the best commentator for many a year, but it’s caught up with him the last few. Brian Moore was the same.

Almost never knowing anybody on the RIP threads that appear.

I could have swore today's one was a joke name...

I especially love the ones about musicians...for some posters it seems the more obscure the person is, the better their genius.

As in, 'only a true music lover like me can appreciate the subtle vibes of this Sudanese bongo player from the early 1960s. His drought period was truly some of the most exhilirating work every produced by a 1960s East African bongo player.'

Exactly what your parents said about what you listened to/watched when you were younger. It is the way of things. The videos being shown are designed to appeal to what the younger generation want to see not you. The old argument about 'real musicians' never holds water. It's called 'pop' for popular for a reason or we would all only listen to someone who has gained a grade 9 playing the piano rather than some 3 chord wonder.
Ps
I do agree with your sentiments though.

It has always been the way of the bbs, the psueds love a book or music thread.

Easy for you to say.

Are you saying you don’t know who Margarita Pracatan is?! (Your not the only one judging by the lack of response on her thread)

Feast your eyes and ears on this amazing lady

Things that annoy you

This morning:

Scouse accents
German accents
Egyptian accents
Scottish accents

Unfortunate choice of word.

Vot ze fack is ze proplem, ya wee bam?

:)

Can't get away from it this morning, all over every sports report and the tv presenters almost praying for a Chelsea win later.

Hope Jan "big chest" Molby doesn't get on your nerves with his pseudo Scouse/Norwegian twang.

Also, stop ******* your eyebrows up

(Not you Sarkba1t... or maybe, I dont know)

Or even Danish. :p

I quite like Martin Tyler. It was he that said "Direct, dangerous and deadly!"

Receiving the post match interview email from the club with the following title:

Hodgson explains Zaha, Guaita & Benteke injuries

When asked the direct question about Wilf, the answer was "well we don't know" and he only just mentioned Guaita & Benteke in passing but saying nothing specific about their injuries.

Once he mentioned the 9-0 defeat I was out.

That was at 1-0 wasn’t it?

Yes, he was obviously dying to speak the bleedin' obvious.

Blackburn playoff? If so that was Brian Moore

I don't know why Sky Sports didn't just rename itself Liverpool TV last night

Surprised he didn’t mention the 9-0 at Selhurst in 2014, or maybe he did?

Scouse Sports, please! :afro:

Doh !

No, I think it was from the Millwall 4-3 game.

I think the famous (to us at least) bit of commentary from Brian Moore from the Blackburn game was "That's the part I like."

Correct when Pembo skinned Terry Hurlock and played it into Wrighty

Funny how none of them mentioned the 1990 cup semi-final, the Gerrard retirement party-poop or Crystanbul. Odd that.

I think TalkShite might be a little bit irritating tomorrow as well, somehow.

They mentioned the 4-3 because they referenced Brighty scoring (who was sitting in the stands looking half asleep) and Pardew.

On the NBC commentary (Arlo White and Graham Le Saux) they did mention Palace beat Liverpool in Gerrard's last game, and that Palace were the last team to win at Liverpool in the League.

I was expecting mention of the 9-0 at any time when it got to 4-0, but mercifully they didn't.

To start the game they were pretty 50/50 in there commentary, but by the end they had been smitten by Liverpool and were well and truly having a full-on wank fest.

To be fair, I can't really blame them.

Sudan isn't in East Africa.

Where is it...?

Are you going to pick holes and say Sub.Saharan?


Sudan doesn't exist anymore, does it?

North Africa, and it still exists, although South Sudan is a separate state now and they are both doing jolly well.

South Sudan is included in East Africa...The bongo player was from there before the partition.

Why was he playing a Cuban drum? Surely this is cultural appropriation? Unless of course you are referring to the bongo antelope of which there are still a few in British East Africa.

Liverpol fans being described as long suffering.

This.

Couple of Champions Leagues, Europa/UEFA cup and umpteen domestic cups in the last 30 years isn't long suffering. All part of the media sycophancy.

Yep

Poor darlings

The rolling banner on GMTV this morning stated they had endured '30 years of hurt'.
What The Actual ****?
HURT?
HURT?

They don't know what hurt is. When did they last suffer successive relegations, for example? FFS.

More of a comment about GMTV. ITV are a shocking channel.

If I was a Bury fan I'd be punching any noisy Liverpool 'fans' this morning.

The non scouse supporting Liverpool fans. Massive cringe for those people who have zero self awareness.

All the red shirts out down here. **** em. I have a mate who supports Liverpool but comes from Northampton. I asked him why he supported Liverpool . Because Northampton don't win anything. I said on that basis no one would support any one bar 3/4 teams.
I am therefore not going to bring up football with him or make him feel uncomfortable.

EFA

Might already been put on here but people who talk on their mobiles on speaker while walking down the road, so we all have to suffer their conversations.

Great shout.

Well done for being as good as Blackburn and Leicester, now **** off.

Oi! I’m the pedant around here.

Twats leaving piles of litter on the rec at Shortlands for the past few nights

Thanks granddad. GMTV hasn't existed since 2010. Also, ITV's output is no worse than that of BBC1 or Channel 4 (admittedly not exactly great praise).

On the BBC news this morning Charlie Stayt saying 30 years of hurt is over for Liverpool.
What a tw@t.

here's the article if you want to read more about the pain and suffering that Liverpool fans have been through - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/extra/C3...-years-of-hurt

Of the 18 top stories on the BBC football homepage, 14 are about liverpool -https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football

and theres even a live stream of reactions and comments about it - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/football/53175769


Do they think anyone that isnt a liverpool fan gives a shit about all of this?

Liverpool will be the victims now the terror of Glasgow has pushed them off the top news slot.

I was responding to strawberry mivi, who used GMTV - and how the hell am I expecting to keep tabs on the names of trashy daytime television programmes ? I should obviously rely on you for such information going forwards.

I would agree that the BBC and Channel 4 don't set a high bar, but can I please cite the following names as evidence that ITV plumbs the depths: Piers Morgan, Philip Schofield, Lorraine Kelly, Loose Women ...

Pshaw! Lorraine is excellent. And even Morgan isn't as vile as Eastenders.

edit - Schofield is a BBC creation

Piers cnt Morgan is the biggest hypocrite ever. Goes on about BLM but he doesn't care one fk. He hates the Govt, nothing to do with policy, simply because Boris cant be arsed to be questioned by the selfish idiot and refuses to appear on the show. I'm surprised anyone goes on the show, because he never listens to a thing they say or gives them a chance to answer, whatever the politics.
He has no politics - he only thinks of his large gob.

WCB seems to be on a constant mission to pick holes in posts.

Is this an official BBS factchecker/spellchecker/grammar pedant role?

Take away your beloved Tipping Point and The Chase....what else is there ?

ITV drama is frequently better than that from BBC

Go on then ....let’s have it :)

Saw the article about his interview with Dizzee Rascal. Great example of him trying to be the important part of the interview rather than the interviewee. If the guest had been any of the white acts on this tour would PM have asked them about the BLM protests-no. Dizzee Rascal is a successful artist who came on the show to talk about his career. PM only asked him about BLM because he's Afro-Caribbean. He was being treated differently because of this even in this subtle way. That's what BLM are saying. Treat us the same as everyone else everytime.

Don't forget Midsomer Murders.

Small man syndrome.

Really not so small man

I would go gay for Bergerac. Not so much for Dudgeon who drinks in my old local (always with
a chap, never with his wife).

ITV is excellent at middlebrow drama like Lewis, Endeavour, Broadchurch, Victoria and so on. Their "Isolation Stories" a few weeks ago were jolly good as well.

Admittedly this is a while ago but ITV's "Poirot" was probably the best adaptation of Agatha Christie in the world ever. She was a dreadful woman and a not very good writer, but she knew how to weave a plot. Compare this to the recent BBC adaptations which are shit on shit on shit on toast. They even made John Malkovich untalented, unless his talent was a really bad Officer Crabtree off of "'Allo!, 'Allo!" impersonator.

F~ck my hat you are almost as tedious as Maidstoned and that's saying something.

Even if ITV only had these two programmes it would be the best channel in the world ever.

:D

It's not necessarily a bad thing.

I had a teacher at school like that some 45 years ago, and I still hear his voice on my shoulder when I post on here (believe it or not... I'm sure he is turning in his grave). "Think before you ink" was the saying back then... at least now days we can read and correct before posting, which obviously I am guilty of not doing!

We (or at least I do) need policing by the likes of WCB. It's not too late even at my age to get a slap on the wrist once in a while.

While I reject the slanderous/libellous assertion that I am not "a bad thing", I do think facts are fairly important. PeterH's ramblings about The Soudan and bongo-playing were a mere frippery of course, but there are occasions when BBSers post utter bollocks as fact (qv Johnybegood on the George Floyd thread about the poor innocent Oirish who deffo never done no slaving at all ever).

I used to be a SPaG pedant in my youth but I realised many years ago that this is only one step above being a gong farmer.

You see WCB that posts like this that lose me.... quit while you are ahead FFS!

Not that I am your target audience...

Looks like you hit home, nipples.

It's like reading a post from Trolley.

Ooh, now theres a thought.
