Could say the same about your makeup...

I'm very touched that you are paying such close attention to my makeup. It is ,however, not "the same". Makeup is an artform that requires a deft touch. Your colouring in with a Derwent while biting your tongue to aid concentration is no doubt challenging for you, but hardly comparible.

You got him a beauty there mate.

BBO will never get up after that knockout blow.

Your wingman, mjt, is probably Rofl.

Now now Biffen, if you're going to play with the other kids don't be so possessive with your toys...

Well you certainly are the Ken Done of that art form then my friend...

Gay man says and asks Barn Dee "My round is next, Barn, would like a beer" BarnDee says "thanx mate"

Gay man walks off to the bar

BarnDee turns around to his straight mate as says "did you see that? He just hit on me"

His straight mate says"no chance Barnee even those gays have standards".

In the West ... it is commonly estimated that HIV/AIDS is close to 50 times more prevalent in the gay community than in the rest of the population.

So no, it's not bullsh1t. It's the reality. It's not a statistic you can sweep under the rug.

A Lesbian is far less likely to be infected by HIV/AIDS than a straight man. Research the stats

Why are we talking about HIV/AIDS?

[dee-luded 2,959]

Yeah that's what we really need more moronic supporters! Because we all know that a lack of empathy and intelligence equals PASSION!

NO!

more loud supporters create atmosphere & market sales in merchandise... and more excitement from opposition supporters, which turns into more TV exposure.

not to mention more cheer for the players to get motivated by. (Yellow & Black) or are you deaf to the sound of common sense?

[Biffen 12,947]

Well you certainly are the Ken Done of that art form then my friend...

and you're the Chopin of chauvinism.

How dare you knock my mates make-up.

Just when were we getting somewhere with Brocks sister.

Next thing you'll be discussing lesbians again.

How are we suppose to fight gay rights, when we are still battling against racism?

Don't look for logic where there is none... You also missed the 8 pages about Islam and the new topic in this thread of outdoing each other with snide remarks...

I hope you're this funny in real life, oh the laughs that must be had around the transistor on family board game night.

Are your McLeans showing? Gotta love a good advertisement. Tanks.

Now you've done it. You mentioned that which cannot be mentioned and, as a result........

I hope you're this funny in real life, oh the laughs that must be had around the transistor on family board game night.

...... Stuie has gone and dusted of his sense of humour. Unfortunately it also needed a grease, oil change and update. But maybe one day he'll give me a stitch. Keep it up.

For some of Stuies jokes, you just have to BE there, and we aren't.

It's unfortunate for him but as any comic genius will verify , it takes years to perfect your act.

He will be ready for the amateur night in about 2313.

Ahhhhhh Biff, just getting funnier, the old far off in the future kind of jokes... Keep it up old chap, you're truly the life of the party.

Xejnky is a word DC. i can xzproove et.

nothing at all

i didn't mention your expertise at spin-the-bottle and musical chairs coz i assumed stuie already knew

i gave up noughts and crosses when a 10 year old singapore kid robbed me blind playing it in a bar at geylang

[dee-luded 2,959]

What on earth are you on about?

the need for more vocal supporters,

the need for wider demographic in our supporter base,

less stuffiness,

less clapping & more yelling @ games,

etc,

we have a long way to go to catch the Tigers & the Pies, re barracking for a team... we are still asking for permission to stand, when a wave comes past.

[P-man 13,366]

What a truly bizarre thread this turned out to be..

Fully agree Dee-luded. We don't even sing the song well.

[binman 43,813]

Yes good point. I'm convinced now. If only we had a higher percentage of racist, homophobic, misogynist red-necks as fans our song would be sung with much more ferocity which in turn would result in more wins and the promised land would be ours!

Yes! And that lot can play the banjo as well!

You guys have your wires crossed a bit.... Binman is saying that there's some poor "Collingwood like" comments in this and the Jurrah threads, Deeluded is saying it would be great to have the same kind of enthusiasm, passion, and "one-eyedness" as Collingwood supporters. They are totally different points. Both are correct in their individual statements IMO.
