Bitter but optimistic

Agree Red. In fact good luck to him. If you can use the rules to your advantage then you're smart. It's up to the rule makers to do something about it.

The thing is dc, a stoning would have to be tasteful and well organised before I'd be interested.. You know we'd want front row seats and plenty of coldies ( can't risk dehydration in those parts). And we would need someone reliable to hold the bets. You know, " I'll give 5 to 1 that that Abdul's next yonnie takes out her left eye." I hope Earl Hood has considered the potential needs of his clients.

Have you booked in any stonings of immoral sheilas Earl? This could influence my attendance.

I think you have to get over this attitude bb. Some of the worst sickos imaginable are on Demonland. Your worst extravagances are normal here. Just consider dc's immoral and unnatural hobbies.

You know the old story bb! It was all a question of whether or not you were quick enough to catch a good looking camel

The Bedouin were basically decent blokes dc. Could get excitable on occasion but generally liked to relax at the oasis and enjoy the odd date. Camel lovers though!

You are not turning old and cynical and, dare I say it, "bitter" are you OD? Well I suppose you can't turn old. But what about cynical and bitter?

I'm 148. IQ that is. I think it best if I withdraw my application for your tour Ernie.

Queensland and civilisation in the same sentence is a big call doc! As to whimsy and reality - I know longer see any difference.

You bringing any bluerinsers along dc or will they be recuperating from an arduous Saturday night? I'll be there too but incognito. If either Biffen or Moonie see me they hang about like groupies. Such is the price of fame I suppose.

You risking life and limb to leave the warm embrace of Borewood dc?

What a nasty fellow you can be dc - I suppose it comes from living in Borewood. The lads were quite well but became distressed at the above reference. You know very well they are highly sensitive about particular ancestral associations. They are going out to stomp some wildlife as a form of anger management. To other matters. I am wondering how bookings for Earl Hood's overseas rip off tour are proceeding? I've misplaced the itinerary BTW and just wondering if the stopover in Pyongyang was still on offer. Actually I have some concerns about Earl Hood. First the hirstute Conchita mysteriously reappears while his main man Hudson appears to have fallen out of favour. Now it seems he is prepared to rough it on an overseas jaunt with some of the coarsest of Demonland's hoi polloi. I fear the failed guava paste enterprise has impacted poorly on what lurks beneath that sensitive hipster bun. Finally I hold grave concerns for our immoderater from Hopping Dicks. It has been some time since he has graced us with his dulcet tones. In fact it was about the time that I initiated an investigation for malfeasance at the supposedly family run Hopping Dicks BDSM club.

I must, for once, tell a true story. I wore my Demonland polo to the local supermarket the other day. The lady at the register asked me what Demonland was. I told her it was a BDSM club ( there is some truth in that). She asked me what that was. I looked her in the eye and said, deadpan, that it was a place where men spanked women. Her expression was priceless. She didn't say another word to me. I've been laughing about it ever since and had to share it. I suppose everyone will think I'm a pervert. Fair dinkum funny.

He who lives in a dwelling with transparent viewing ports should not chuck yonnies dc.

Hope you're enjoying a saki or two Col. As to your points above - Hipsters. I believe our resident bun man Earl Hood is currently denying his hipster associations and trying to make a living in pharmaceuticals. Lamas. Not a subject "the lads" care to discuss. Pimping and the Gat. The Gat is being sold and sanitized so Biffen's business interests are currently suffering. Booze. Well hate to say it but there appears to be some problem drinkers on this site. You know how it is Col, everything changes but things stat the same - well usually. There has been one profound change which has left this thread in tatters. OD has cast off his cloak of pessimism and glumness and is spreading the word of joyous optimism.

Looks like something Gomez would make for Morticia.

[censored] of fence . This thread is only for the intelligentsia of Demonland.

They are not desert boots dc. FFS [censored] poor imitations!

No room for the spirit of forgiveness in the new positive OD?

Usually I would totally disregard anything you had to say picket. However, I did catch part of a review of this film while listening to the radio. It seemed to have enough peculiarities to be worth a look. Biffen knows something of pawnshops as he cashed both his mother and poor old grannie's wedding rings at one.

Agreed OD! We are long overdue to inflict some pain on them. Sadly we will have to venture to Darklands to watch it.

A reasonable assumption Mable,however I can assure you Biffen would not do such a thing. I have had the"pleasure" of Biffen's company on a number of occasions . He usually just snots on the floor but if it's more formal he uses his sleeve.

I'm enlisting you as my official advisor on matters football OD. I'm already feeling confident about next week's game!

Yes picket I noticed you getting a jolly good thrashing from a number of posters. I must say I enjoyed it immensely and considered it totally justified. Now as to some sort of panacea for your ills. If you were a fellow of sensibility and style there are any number of fine wines I could recommend. However, associating you with a cultured palate( or cultured anything for that matter) brings to mind the old biblical saying about "casting pearls before swine". Therefore I suggest you go out and buy the cheapest and nastiest "fourpenny dark" you can find and slurp down the contents. You can then beat yourself about the head with the empty bottle until you lapse into unconsciousness. PS. if you need advice on cheap and nasty wines contact Biffen. He drinks nothing else.

I think Emerald has answered that question for you Red!!
