Would it take any longer than downloading 60 individual posts with one image each, considering then you'd also have to wait for the 'frames' and their contents to download too? Genuine question, I really have no idea...

This would be preferable if you have a slow internet connection, takes an age to download 10 posts with half a dozen pictures in each.

i know what u mean, when i'm on my i=phone the download is r=ally slow, but weenn i;m on my internet explorerer is no problem

Why though? Is 1 post with 5 pics worse than 5 posts with 1 pic? In defence of the good captain he gets alot more likes than complaints by a large factor so unless there would be a good reason to change things I think they are grand as is. You can use the ignore function if it is really upsetting you*


*the general you rather than specifically you DG.

Considerably worse in my opinion, for the reason pointed out by dolanbaker. Slow, gigantic page to scroll through is massive PITA for browsing in my opinion.

And yeah, my ignore function is back in use. Upset is a strong word however.

I like his posts. Especially on a slow day, or when a load of reposts have been added.

Just my 2 cents.

My problem with the mass dumping of pics is that is quantity instead of quality. I would only ever post something that I personally found very humourous. I would have no problem browsing through pages of pics from a single poster if they were quality, but imo most of the pics aren't quality. I doubt that the poster himself could have rated all of the pics as quality. I know that humour is very subjective, but I would just request that people only post something that they themselves found to be humourous, instead of using a scattergun approach on the off chance that someone, somewhere might find something funny.

What's the story with the picture of the hot girl in the green dress that cap'n midnight put up?

No idea. Maybe cause she's grumpy? Perdy though. Why isnt there a hot girls thread? That'd be a lovely way to ease into work of a monday morning.

First posted in the BAAAAWWWW thread cos, y'know, it's cute.

Then, 20 hours later, he posted the same image in YLYL. It's not a funny image but hey, it didn't get enough thanks in the other thread so I better post it in the thread with much higher traffic :rolleyes:

It was a vague (sh|t) attempt at sarcasm/humour... And judging by the time, I was fairly cut...
Reading over it again, it was terrible/poor.

The alphabet being in order makes it easier to learn doesn't it? It'd hard to sing the alphabet song if it was random. Collections of named things would also be very hard to put into any sort of order if the alphabet had no order. <insert buzzkill image here>

Second Toughest in_the Freshers

yeah, but it could be argued that they should be ordered by how frequently they occur,
ie. E T A O N R I S H D L F C M U G Y P W B V K J X Q Z,

or start with the vowels EAOIU,TNRSHDLFCMGYPWBVKJXQZ


EDIT, now I'm singing E T A O, N R I; S H D L, FCMUG, Y P W, B V K, J X Q and Z...

Then each language would have it in a different order. and so you would be as well if you went abroad and tried to recite it to your foreign language speaking friends.

If, as a child the alphabet was taught to you backwards and reinforced through song etc you'd find the alphabet done the 'normal' way equally weird. It's just the way we're taught at the end of the day.

There probably was very good reason why they put it in the order they did. Look at the name even - alphabet. Seems to me like that's from the Greek for alpha and beta, a b, so there is some order to it.

And the rhyme in the song. It can't be coincidence that the alphabet fits the rhyme of the ABC song so well.

That song is just Baa Baa Black Sheep, which in itself is just Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. Go ahead, hum them....

Reminds me when I said that in AH and was jumped on by a guy who insists that Baa Baa Black sheep and Twinkle Twinkle are not the same tune :pac:

You could apply the penis rule to the first one. Not sure about the second one, just seems to be silly.

Probably nothing in the second one. The poster has a history of posting random images to get attention here.

The runners one is Gay Gaitlin Rodgers Brombell.

I thought the funny thing in the athlete picture is that the guy is wearing an arm sleeve for sprinting.
