The Off Topic Thread & Off Topic Thread II - Collectors Edition Bumper Pack

Peyton Manning · 2008-03-12 05:57:25

I herbey humbly request an off-topic thread in the soccer forum - where all us soccer nerds can chat amongst ourselves in a non-soccer way, as there is a world outside of this palce. Yes, there is After Hours, but a lot of us folk wouldn't venture that way all too often. The reason I made a request in a thread instead of…

Fair play Des, some dick almost ran me off the road, doing at least 150kmph, this morning on my way home and proceeded to pull down his window and give me the finger. How cool is he. :rolleyes:

I agree with most of what u said Des, but to be fair, we all break the speed limit at some point or another. That said, DRINK DRIVIN is 100% unacceptable under any circumstances and fair play for saying what everyone else in that thread wanted to but were scared to cos of the banstick.... fair play.......in an unmoderated face to face verbal, u owned him!

Nothin worse than those arseholes that 1) speed (which like i said we al creep above the limit but I mean those d1ckheads that bait it down every road theyr eon like theyve just jumped jail), 2) weave through lanes at 100 mph causing everyone else to break dangerously and 3) give u the finger when u beep at them for this muppetry.

absolutely, drink drivin.....Ive no time for.

I think he made a point about people going over the speed limit though (not related to drink driving) in an isolated point. if not, then I misunderstood it and disregard my point about that!

By the way, dont get me wrong, Ive little time for people going above the speed limits, However i dont get as high and mighty about it because I will admit that at times in a 30mph zone I can, without thinkin get to 35mph. It happens. U look down and there it is. Spending your whole time checking your speedometer is dangerous too as u need to be looking at whats in front of and behind you.

That particular chap tho, was a plank, and fair play to Des for saying so.

Hear hear.

My cousin told me a funny story yesterday. Her friend was minding a dog in an apartment for another friend. One morning she woke up and the dog was dead and she didnt have a clue what to do because she couldnt contact the owner and as she was in an apartment there was nowhere to bury the dog. So she decided to put the dog in a suitcase and bring it to her house where she could bury it in the garden. So off she went on the tube with the dog in the suitcase. As she was standing on the packed tube a man noticed how she was struggling with the weight of the suitcase and offered to hold it for her. The man commented on how heavy the suitcase was and asked her what was in it. She obviously wasnt going to say a big dead dog so she said she was a DJ and all her cds were in the suitcase. At the next stop the man legged it with the bag! Can you imagine his face when he opens the suitcase and expects to see hundreds of pounds worth of cds but instead is faced with a dead dog! Talk about karma!

The feedback forum always makes me laugh. Its funny, they have "The Thunderdome" for people to go and argue with eachother in, but 99% of the time it ends up in feedback anyway....

I am now making it my ambition to have a thread about myself in feedback within the next 3 months...:D

It's very lightly moderated.

I've only ever known a handful of people banned, one got back in, another is perma-banned.
