  1. Yes! That day, I happened to be sitting directly behind two of their fans, oh wait, I mean, their two fans and they were as obnoxious as 1000 fans from any other club. Except Essendon, of course.
  2. 😮 Noooo! I’ve been misspelling it all this time! I know that’s not the point but it probs means I won’t be able to sleep for at least a week. 😳
  3. 😢 I have this up on my pantry wall. such a powerful pic… This pic is also the reason I can’t hate Chris Scott, dagnabbit. 😑
  4. I’m amazed I managed to read any of it such was my reaction when I saw the accompanying pic! While not one given to OTT emotion (🤥) I was dealing with the old lump in the throat thing when I saw Tracc’s face. ❤️💙 Never.Gets.Old.Ever.EVER.
  5. …and if Goodie says it is so, it is so! PS: no, I don’t have brekky beers. That there’s a lil life hack for y’all: keep your coffee hot with a stubbie-holder. You’re welcome. ✌️
  6. Appropriate af Edit: unless of course it’s the four-letter ‘rude’ word to which you refer. I trust the mods won’t object when they see my feeble attempt to cover it.
  7. Not gonna lie… jealous af. Wanna sell it? I’ve got a heap of fungibles and even more cryptos. Oh, and a bunch of buttons, badges and ribbons and a my lil pony. Name yer price, devil-pebble.
  8. Easy there, Spartacus. I said ‘heartless’ not ‘heinous’ 😳 Forcing someone to go down the Hawthorn path against their will is an indictable offence which carries a penalty of 25 to life. Well, it doesn’t. But it should. BTW, Love your solving skills. Demonstone would be proud. And probs a little jealous. 😁
  9. No need for that. I’ve already got ‘Hitmen R Us’ on speed dial. 😎 Seriously though, thank you for the well-intentioned (but highly illegal) sentiment. 😁 As for the ignore button: sadly it can’t erase what has already happened. But if you happen to know of anyone who owns a fully-operational DeLorean…
  10. Rattus Norvegicus equal best along with The Raven, for mine. Same soft spot for Aural Sculpture 🙂 Saw them live only once. Can’t remember what year (early 80’s) nor the venue (maybe Festival Hall) but will never, ever forget the experience. EVER 🤯
  11. Yes and I was happy to attend, until I discovered nobody else was there but you. And that it was an interview for a job as a maid!
  12. Thanks Luci (for everything). You know, this is the first footy forum I’ve ever been a part of (as if you can’t tell 😁). I’ve been on heaps of fan forums, mainly for bands/singers etc. I’ve never lasted longer than a few months since they can be fairly toxic and the mods are useless (unlike our mods 🙂) but I’ve never had to leave any of them because of being hurt by someone. And I’m not talking The Wiggles, I’m talking The Stranglers, for example. I never dreamt DL would be the place wherein I’d end up being made to feel so bad. Hence, my guard was down. Anyways, that’s totes off-topic. Back on topic: I bought a ticket for our Anzac-eve match, first time I’ve done so without your help. Ima PM you if that’s ok to make sure I’ve done it right. 👍🏽
  13. *dips toe in the water* *waits to hear someone yell, “come on in, the water’s fine* *shrugs shoulders and dives in anyways* Covid is a cruel mistress. She had me in a vicelike grip. She unleashed a relentless attack; a four-day Covid-induced brain fog of the highest order. Hands down the worst part of this ordeal? I had to 86 Demonland at a time when I most needed to be with the DL fam. Thus: 🦠 ➕ iso ➖ Demonland = 😢 I make no secret of how much DL means to me (in short, EVERYTHING). But I had to bail when it became nothing more than a painful reminder of the cruel and heartless actions of another poster. Even logging on to use PM (there are some absolutely beautiful ppl here 💕) was extremely difficult. Seemed the only way to get over being so hurt was to ditch this site altogether. Outta site, outta mind. (See what I did there? 😁) Then last Thursday for the first time since joining DL a year ago, I watched the Dees match… alone. (I’d forgotten how depressing that was.) I thought surely there’s something I can do about this. So I asked myself… WWZD (What Would Zelenskyy Do)? 🤔 Roll over and let the Bad Guy win? Not a chance! So I picked m’self up, dusted m’self off, put m’ big girl pants on and now I’m ready to take on the world! At least, I will when I’m sufficiently well enough to drag my sorry-a$$ off the couch. 😆 Then for good measure I sent this out to the Universe… 🎶 Karma Police, Arrest this man 🎶 (Apologies to Thom Yorke/Radiohead) … coz the Music gods are always in the Good Guy’s corner. 😉 *gets out of pool* *hopes this dip will go some ways to restoring some semblance of confidence*
  14. Civility is your only criterion? Sensitivity doesn’t get a guernsey? Cool. I need to take a break from DL anyways, so thank you for providing me with another (and deciding) reason, albeit unwittingly. 👍🏽
  15. Wasn’t gonna pay any mind to this but woke up this morning feeling like death and need to ask you nicely to not post statements about how we all got vaccinated for nothing. Yes, we can still get it/pass it on but I know that had I not been vaxxed I would in all likelihood be in hospital rn. Defs not starting a battle here, but please think before you make this type of statement. 🙏
  16. I’m not surprised. He seems that way outwardly. It’s always nice to hear it confirmed by someone in the know. 🙂
  17. I tested positive for covid today. Bright side: I would’ve had it Friday night and I was sitting at the match surrounded predominantly by Essendon supporters. 😆
  18. Feels like Josh Kennedy has been around forever. Probably coz he has. One of my fave non-Dees players.
  19. Kayo is behind. For me anyways. But well done to our girls!!! 💚 💛
  20. Well, you’ll be happy now. Their no. 11 won’t be there for long. As good as done and dusted.
  21. Imagine if they did have more wickets in hand. 😬 wow. I didn’t see the Aus innings but 120 off the last 10!!!
  22. I’ll give you points 2 and 3, RTG. But not so much point 1. So, the opposite of love is hate. Except it’s totally not. Psychology 101 right there. 😊
  23. I’ve spent the entire game in a chat, me and seven diehard Blues fans. I’m not sure but I think at least three hearts stopped. 😂 Edit: mine wasn’t one of them. ❤️💙
  24. Are the Blues as good to watch live as they are on TV right now? Coz they’re looking great from where I am.
