Get a mike and keep singing Tie A Yellow Ribbon and Roberta Flack’s The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face, that should stop them.

That wouldn’t suffice. They brought out the big guns last night at about 11pm. They *each had a go at that god-awful Celine Dion Titanic song. If I didn’t already hate that song with a passion, I do now.

*there’s six of them 😳

Haha. WCW, I think you are very much underestimating just how annoying you can be. Give it a shot.

Turn on the hose and point it over the fence and yell the ship is sinking.

I have a developing conundrum ! Now I realise that the many sleaze bags who post here will make merry with that statement ( Go ahead because it will probably be true)

However, that is not my issue. We all know who the epynonomous TS is ..... but we daren't mention him.

But let's be honest he is .... well history. Even jokes about the infamous pie eater would now fall flat. 

So @Redleg , I am suggesting that, in recognition of the changing times, a name change for this thread is now in order.

In keeping with theme of unmentionables ( with which I am quite familiar) I suggest The No CO No B$ Thread.

I can’t speak for the other sleaze-bags who post here, but I disagree wholeheartedly! On what planet are C.O. and T.$. interchangeable??? Methinks dementia is winning the battle, BBO. 😭

First I don’t understand what the CO stands for, have I missed something?

While I don’t see the need for a name change, I wouldn’t totally be against it. Perhaps the “DL no B$ Thread” would be acceptable.

Anyway it does seem to have been a major success and why change a winning formula?

It is the longest, most read, most posted, most pages thread in DL history, so no real need to change it.

Ooh ouch they are playing rough.

That my heart will go on song is very nasty.

I'd try something like this to warm them up until we can all agree on what will really send them over the edge.

The worst Karaoke is in Vietnam. Everyone's got one and they turn them up to 11.

Competing Romantic wailing ballads that sound like cats fighting or Chickens in severe pain.

Celine is atrocious I agree but surely she can't go on?

My neighbours are Vietnamese, and they sing this hideous song in their language. Not gonna lie… it’s actually slightly less painful in Vietnamese. Until about the fourth time and then it’s back to ear-bleeds.

I know I'm paranoid but I swear my phone's spying on me. I'm getting an unusual amount of adds on this site for the man shake. Tx a lot you insensitive operating system.

What are the best rock songs with some Saxophone in them?

I've got dibs on Baker Street.

Probably the kids don't even know this beautiful classic.

Not rock but ska deever. How about Night Boat To Cairo from the first Madness album One Step Beyond, released in 1979? Lee Thompson is their irrepressible saxophonist.

Madness were something different in their day. A quirky band with a fresh sound and fun lyrics.

Speaking of Ska.....does anyone remember " Free Nelson Mandela?

Still going strong too deevs. Madstock in Finsbury Park was probably their high point. When the 100,000 crowd started jumping up and down it caused a 4.1 earthquake that set off seismic monitoring equipment at the Greenwich Observatory on the other side of the Thames.

This. One does not play around with sacred scrjpture or holy origin stories. The T$ referred to is still a [censored], and the "No BS" part is the classic "more honoured in the breach than in observance" irony. Nothing to see here -- move on!

There is something wrong with your breeches.  It is "breach" in this sense.

I have a film for you Biff, Saltburn on Amazon Prime.

Should be right up your alley.
