Ever been a mod?

Ted_YNWA

Was a mod on a different site many moons ago. Sports streaming site.

Would you abuse your powers if you were in that position?

absolutely i would; Ted banned for nothing at all


What's the last 1980s movie/film you watched?

Ted_YNWA

No idea, tempted to watch Beverly Hills Cop later tonight.

Do you own any boxsets?

Rubecula

yes

I have the Scarlet Pimpernel. Do you know it?

Wichita Lineman

Lots and lots and lots. and then some more lots.

How many bookcases do you have where you live?

Rubecula

lots over 4000 books here

does that make me sound a bit of a loser?

Just one!

But its all a government conspiracy, do you think my conspiracy theory could be true?

pollyannawins

power is deceptive, its just the way it isn't

do you believe a certain watchfulness regarding governments and things is parcel to the activity of being a consciencious citizen?

Indeed I do.

Were you ever up the top of the Eiffel Tower?

Ted_YNWA

Was half-way up, it was too windy for them to have the top deck open.

Was that being mean or Health & Safety?

pollyannawins

probably the latter but some people take a malicious pride in their work

why can't we all just get along?

Elmo

Do to health and safety reasons I cannot answer that question. Not sure if that's for your safety or mine.

Who do you think would win a fight The Brain or Elmo?

pollyannawins

the Nazi party

do you know a good nightclub that catters to alt, rock, goth taste in Dublin (equiv of the torture garden in London)

Elmo

I don't

Do you think you lose an arguement when you bring up the Nazi party or Hitler. I mean did Hitler or the Nazi party ever come close to the level of evil of The Brain?

sensible option

don't know what 'evil of the brain' is. should it come after the watershed?

do you not feel history should at least be thankful that it has ready examples of how social and political initiatives can go wrong so they don't recur?

Why do you have a better plan to take over the world?

They're pinky and the brain brain brain!

sensible option

no, the world seems fine

do you yourself suffer from that particular frailty?

no, me, I'm a sensible option.

what brought you to boards.ie?:)

Ted_YNWA

No idea, but whatever it was I have spent 3.5 years still here & haven't found what I was looking for.

Are you glad you signed up to boards?

Elmo

Eh? give me back my life!

How are you?

Ted_YNWA

Sure no point complaining, nobody pays me any heed.


Do you ever get that feeling too?

Elmo

Nah, 12 years (**** 13 this Month!) here I am like the bible of boards now, everyone is listening to every letter I type, get a bit paranoid that people can hear me type, but other than that I fell very much appricated at Boards.ie.

Do you feel that you made a good point when you get a lot of thanks on boards?

Ted_YNWA

I don't pay a lot of heed to the number of thanks I get. Occasionally have a look at the overall count (in the region of 7K i think)

I am a bit quick witted at times & they get a few thanks.

Do you follow any forums on here or just float around the site?

Just this thread haha and Broadcasting! Used to float around TV but every since the Big Bang Theory arguement I leave well alone 3 polls everyone seems to like that god damn show!

What you think of 2 and a Half Men finishing after 10 years!

Only had a passing interest when Sheen was in it, all but gave up watching when he left.

Was that the start of the downfall of the show?

Wichita Lineman

A lot of US comedy shows get to run for much longer than they should. I don't think it was just Sheen's departure that causes the downswing.

Did you watch Charlie in Anger Management? Was it any good ?

No didn't get to see it, he couldn't be much worse than he was in 2 and Half Men. While many US Sitcoms run beyond the real lifespan, IMO 2 and a half men should never have really gone beyond the first episode.

Would you not agree?

pollyannawins

self indulgent yes, massive audience also: seems that the pure capitalism of the thing won through.

can you think of a better premise for a sitcom?

Wichita Lineman

6 boardsies house share. Hilarity ensues.

Are you going to audition?

Georgie.Girl

Indeed!

Where do I signup?

Wichita Lineman

Right here, I've appointed myself the casting director.

Do you like my casting couch?

Shiminay

That's a Chaise Longue, not a couch...

Do you know what this is for?

Wichita Lineman

No. I wasn't much good at technical drawing type of stuff.

What do you use it mostly for?

Shiminay

Mostly technical drawing type stuff

Are you making the tea?

Ted_YNWA

Nope, that is not in my job spec.

Do you hate people who work like that & do not step out of their work "bubble"?

Elmo

Yeah but find most people do

I hate it more "if we do that for you we'd have do it for everyone"

Who'd know and when was the last time some requested this?????

Wichita Lineman

We'd all know, you've just told us.

Are you happy it's Friday?

kissmequick

I was happy that Friday had been reached as I was kind-of looking forward to seeing someone somewhere who was there last Friday which was very nice as it was totally random and un-expected and a nice surprise and they were really nice too. And it was nice that we may have had an interest in the same thing too! But he wasn't there yesterday. Sod him it anyways. And now I've just totally lost all interest in having anything to do with something that I really enjoyed because crappy stuff happening just makes things a gazillion times more hopeless. So now I just need to forget about it and embrace (yuck embrace sounds so fake and commercial) a new hobby.

Do you have any suggestions for new hobbies?

Wichita Lineman

Golf. Great hobby.

Have you ever played golf?

Elmo

Wichita Lineman wrote: »

Spoils a good walk.

Who said that?

Wichita Lineman

Not me anyway. It's a great sport.

How often do you go on a long walk without golfing?

Often though I usally take pictures.

You're not mark twain are you?

Wichita Lineman

No, I am a little bit younger than Mark Twain.

Have you read his books?

Hugo Stiglitz

Wichita Lineman wrote: »

Not even one.

Do you own any North Face products?

Ted_YNWA

Don't think so, not brand loyal or aware most of the time.

Does price or label affect you most in clothes purchases?

Kettlebelljim

Price mainly as I get older, was a sucker for labels in my early 20s.
Priority shifted with the addition of kids, but will still shell out for a decent pair of trainers or boots.

Should anyone scrimp on good footwear?

Sephiroth_dude

Good god no , well.....depends on your circumstances I guess.

Any chance of filling the kettle and putting it on?

Kettlebelljim

Kettle's boiled, anyone for a mug of tea?
