๐Ÿ˜‚ when can I โ€œguessโ€ where Cambodge is?ย

This frivolous thread went sideways with emotions and stuff. Original guess as to what I was before I became Skort:ย 

A skirt and suit fashion ensemble, pronounced as a .portmanteau?

A small Namibian boat, pronounced something like โ€˜skoytโ€™ย [censored] Elon Musk.ย 

A deliberately bad transliteration of the word for crazy in Khmer: sh-goot?

A play on the words โ€˜skew-it?

Some or all of the above?

Couldn't have been the first (though 'skuit'ย did become 'skort'...); the word 'fashion' gave it away.

@Sir Why You Littleis paying homage to the Warner Brothers Cartoons i grew up watching (and still watch today!) I decided to Knight myself a few years ago, when Tony Abbott was throwing them around Willy Nillyย 

Still cannot believe that Abbott was Actually The Australian Prime Minister for a period of time. Sends shivers down my spine!!

Neither of those, EO.

Lyrics from a band called Mercury Rev (their name belies their music; they produce the sweetest songs not unlike The Flaming Lips).ย Also because I have a problem with indecision and oftentimes feel like itโ€™s me fighting me, ย hence civil war. ๐Ÿ˜

This is such a mind-bending post. Did you just third person yourself? And 'why you little' I think most people would assume is a Simpsons' reference. I have a five-hour layover in Thailand soon, I think we should meet and discuss (can you please distract 'you know who).ย

We werenโ€™t on the whole tour! Just the Aus shows. They were an interesting bunch. Not exactly what youโ€™d call โ€œdown to earthโ€, but also not that difficult. Have got many a horror-story about touring with awful bands, but thankfully many more that have been great.ย

I think it was within 24 hours. Thereโ€™s two of us floating around as @Nashermentioned. All good though, itโ€™s only the best moment ever and all.

Here was me thinking Nasher was a big fan of my work knowing all my previous names before letting the cat out of the bag re. How to search for it.

It goes back a lot further than Homer. Although he was another great comedian (The First 8 Seasons especially)

Embarrassed to admit Iโ€™ve not read it. I have a copy of it. Just havenโ€™t got around to starting it yet. Gotta finish War and Peace first. Not joking. Itโ€™s a [censored] slog.

Abstemiousโ€ฆ one of my favourite words since it contains all the vowels and theyโ€™re in order. Same as my friend whose surname is Alexiou.ย 

As for @Bitter but optimistic, methinks itโ€™s more a case of bitter and less so optimistic.๐Ÿ˜œ

@Jaded No Moreย  although she can sometimes still be a little jaded. I say that with affection. And Iโ€™m sure she would agree. ๐Ÿ˜˜

I always thought Jaded was a person whose name was Jade D. I know she got married recently, so I just assumed she took Mr No More's name as hers.

She's actually one of my favourite posters with a nice mix of logic and passive aggressive (and sometimes downright aggressive, but never abusive) posts.ย

You didnโ€™t watch Warner Brothers Cartoons?

At least 40 years before Homer and Monty

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
