Will Louise go out with me?

No chance. Even the tide wouldn't take you out.

American smooth.

Why do we constantly give the oxygen of publicity to the people who annoy us the most?

I'd never even heard of this person until this thread was started?

MikeyTaylor

Think she should become an Iowexit strategist for the US.

Independent country, how awesome that would be, they would have no D***** T**** to worry about and instead Kim Reynolds* would be President. Hell, there's a city in Buchanan County, IA called Independence!

*A very controversial abortion bill has been passed in that state.

Anyone going to see the "World Premier" dramatic version of All Men Are Rapists in Waiting Edit: Asking For It at the Every MAN Theatre?



Now for the "World Premier" of my lunch

Outlaw Pete

I might go see it in the Abbey in November.

Might be okay if it has been adapted in such a way as to iron out all the flaws and removed at least some of the illogical nonsense that was in the book.

The central premise of the story itself is fine. The docu on the rape which inspired the book is good.

We're thinking of seeing it in the Paramount in Cedar Rapids. With our friends Lauren and Iain.

Don't, it's a kip.

I move to change the name from the Every Man Theatre to the #NotAllMen Theatre.

Who is? I reckon they will play her as a defensive midfielder in front of the back four. She's good at being defensive.

She can only defend one side though, so useless as a DM.

I wonder if she's on the same salary as the erst of the players?

Apparently when she signed for FC Twente in 2015, she had a clause in her contract whereby her salary would always remain no more than 15% lower than the clubs highest earner, so when the club signed new players with bigger salaries, Louise always had her salary increased to remain within the 15% threshold.

I'm not sure of her contract arrangements since she moved to Dynamo Zagreb last year.

Rumour has it that during matches Louise is involved with, the ball will be henceforth referred to as the ovary.

The good old Everyman.
Cork's premier theatre, after The Opera House, Firkin Crane, North Mon Sports Hall and the big pallet they use as a stage in room 4 in the Blackpool Montessorri.

Man Marking is no longer allowed either, it's now called Person Positioning and there is a Costa Rica FA meeting being held in conjunction with FIFA to ratify.

MikeyTaylor

Will she be picked for the Iowa Institute Barnstormers next?

Vicxas

Next you'll be telling me that shes going to Wrestlemania next.

Oh wait, i mean consensualtouchingmania...

Mine was the one about helping Kerry Katona sell Herbalife in America so she can break the country.

Do the players have to affirmatively consent to being person positioned in this manner?

Pfft...

Can I ask how is the thread title updated ?

Is there an "official Boards committae" organised for this sole function ?
Or is just any old mod that gets to do it ?

Just interested to see how the minds of the mods work around here.

And besides I am tired of being the only poster in, make that person viewing, Politics Cafe forum.

It truly is the ghost town of boards these days.

Bicycle kicks have been renamed to Pedal Propulsion Foot Strikes because the word Bicycle contains the words:


Bi - labeling of sexuality
Cycle - An obvious jibe at the menstrual cycle of the female.
