Bitter but optimistic

Thanks Saty, at least you had the good grace not to dispute the fact that your post was one of the "silliest" ever.

Don't know what to make of this chap. It must be failed humour surely. If you're serious then it would have to rank as one of the silliest posts I've ever read.

Do what I do Steve, call everybody [censored] or [censored] or [censored] !!! No confusion! No gender issues! Simple really!

Yes, sadly that is correct.

Sheeete billy!!! See a doc! You are one seriously [censored] up puppy dog. No actually I think you need a jolly good flogging.

[censored] me dead!!! Where is all nicey nicey namby pamby [censored] coming from? Are you all on drugs? Let's get back to some good old demonland vitriol.

It's only because I can't work out how to do it - I've got some lovely "family pictures".

Yes that's a feature I wish could be restored. Gnasher??

You [censored] will really have something to whine about if good old Uncle Bitters decides to pack up and leave!

Medical Alert!!! Saty will pull it right off one day.

Of course you wouldn't understand Moonie. A far more simple register is used when addressing (as one must on occasion) knuckle dragging vulgarians such as yourself and Biffen. You will note that Earl Hood, a gentleman of culture and refinement, had no difficulty in understanding my erudite epistle.

As you know Earl, I am not one to spread gossip. However, it has come to my notice (from another of the genteel class) that the travel equivalent of a Ponzi scheme was being administered from the heart of Hipsterland by a fellow with disreputable Caribbean interests. An hirstute former virgin from Spain is apparently making Five star bookings for two across your proposed route while at the same time organising some mud huts with camel dung stoves in the same locales. I'm sure it's only scurrilous chatter Earl but thought I'd mention it.

As I stated on the Thompson thread, I disagree with recruiting this type of player now. Our young players did well this year and will only get better. Rather than the Dal/Thompsons let's develop another younger player.

Thanks Pineapple for a good thread. Nothing like wallowing in another's misery.

What's the correct rule regarding marrying your sister in Tassy Gnash? I understand it's no longer compulsory but highly recommended.

dee luded's posts make more sense than that!

Yes we have had some wins but I wouldn't be relying on consistent success from picks at that end of the draft

We are in the fortunate position of having an able back up if Max were to suffer some misfortune. If Spencer went we would be horribly exposed.

Interesting that you raise that point Ethan. There was an old football story about that very trick and the nickname of a famous footballer of years past. I wonder how many here remember it.

It makes me wonder just how much change there will be to our list. If our only decent draft pick goes for Hibberd I don't see much value in picks in the 40's 50's etc. Unless we are bloody lucky.

Strange world we live in. Uncle Bitter has little else to do ATM, so allow me to share the following with you. An article in the Weekend Orstralian highlights author, Susan Faludi's reaction to her father having a sex change at age 76. ......." my father stood in the doorway in her crimson bathrobe".

It's something of a Yossarian situation. You couldn't be insane if you wanted to burn down Etihad!

Geez, quiet night here. Big win for Casey and the womens all stars tonight . Things could be worse. Haven't heard any more about Biffen - if he doesn't post for a few days we can assume he was locked up. No loss really.

Now as you all know, Uncle Bitter isn't one to betray confidences, so I'm keeping this among mates. My very reliable sources tell that Biffen was before the courts today. ... (Again) Let's just say it was for "anti social behaviour" . Which doesn't seem unreasonable to me. Anyway ... apparently Biffen pleads his innocence. Ha Ha Ha ...FMD .. if you have ever seen Biffen , the scruffy [censored] would immediately be considered guilty. Second mistake. The smart mouth [censored] decides to defend himself!! Final mistake. "It was all a misunderstanding" . Apparently hard evidence from the coppers suggested otherwise and poor old Biffo was done. Well [censored] him I say!!

Provided the destination wasn't Borewood!
