I thought TS stood for Talking Sh*it and BS for Bullsh*it

As for HWFUA, I have NFI what that stands for.

TBH, it’s actually my new hobby. Seriously, there’s comedy Gold in this thread. 

This is certainly good news.

From the Big Banana to the Big Oyster, Australia's 'big things' are still striving to put small towns on the map

It has become essential reading for 1000’s. I think at one stage it had a higher readership than the Harry Potter 📚 books.

I see it as a vehicle for spreading truth, in a world of misinformation.

Hmmm 🤔 define “truth”

Speaking of definitions I can now say with confidence that I will NOT go to my grave not knowing the definition of “mention” thanks to your good self. 😁

"Truth" are the words that come from my mouth and keyboard.

* Admittedly, that stage was before JK Rowling released the first of the Harry Potter series.

Can not wait for a town to be called “the big Richard”!

First Harry Potter book published 1997 and this thread started in July 2011.

Pity I didn’t get royalties, like  JK Rowling.

In other words, the Harry Potter series had sold millions of books as well as numerous other sources of finance including a number of movies and you think this thread was more popular?

To the devotees and fans of this thread, there is no doubt it is more popular than Harry Potter.

PS: If you do like Harry Potter, all the movies are being shown currently on Foxtel.

My Grand daughter got me into Harry and the crew. I really enjoyed them.

I’m up to page 10 of reading this thread, and while it’s captivating (at the very least) I don’t know if I can read on. I just saw this post, looked at the date and realised what upcoming match was being referenced. 😞 

 

Not sure I can stomach reading the next (hopefully only a couple) of pages.

I was worrying unnecessarily. There are only three comments posted after the game and one of them was ‘Jaded no more’ (but when still ‘Jaded’) referring to wine as salvation. 😄  Then no more posts for a fortnight thereafter.  
I daresay the post-match thread from that day would be an entirely different story. 😑
Anyways, I’m only 12 pages in and the price of bananas has  already dropped from $14.99 per kilo to $9.99. So there’s that.

You do realise WCW that, as you work your way through this momentous tome, there will be regular testing of its philosophical content, moral implications and how it advances one's understanding of life itself.

Sub standard performance may require penance at The Manor.

And by penance you do mean 10 Our Fathers and 10 Hail Marys. Right?
