I hate tats. Becks is a good-looking man so long as he doesn't talk, so whatever possessed him to desecrate his body I will never know.

No.

How long have you got?

I can see where an inference can be made though. Be more careful in future.

I understand that but its a shame the clergy did not abide by their own teachings given the number of priests who pursued their own illicit carnal pleasures at the expense of those under their pastoral care, yes?

May I remind you that the Punkape.Exe Rules (Special Provisions) 2018 prohibits you posting your brand of nonsense during the first 48 hours of a new thread?

Well that was then, this is now. I think it was during the period I was temporarily relieved of my Admin/Mod role so for me it was of a case of gamekeeper turned poacher. Good fun tho'

You have a lot to learn young padawan.

I think @Decimus & @Salty Piss Flap should give it a rest. You're both making pratts of yourselves, not helped by the testosterone-fuelled trash talk.

Every full moon.

Just don't log in. The account will eventually be disposed of during a culling session.

Yes No

I don't mind admitting this Dr C, but you are the reason I get out of bed and check the site first thing. Who could forget the offer to see sight of a deceased relative's death certificate? It was cutting edge humour, I can tell you.

Yeah, billions of coin. The Catholic church is also culpable in world's overpopulation with its intransigent attitude to contraception.

One more thing, the term "rattled" was first coined on The Corner by 'Sleeve in December 2014. It would be used by six other punters before Decs used it in February 2016.

Some observations:- Interestingly the P-51 Mustang was originally developed to British requirements. Initially, the aircraft was a competent effort but was deemed only suitable as a ground attack platform. What transformed the Mustang from another average 'plane to the superlative and iconic WW2 weapon was replacing the American Allison engine with the Rolls Royce Merlin unit. America did not just "rough up" the Japanese and the Pacific theatre was not just a sideshow. Britain was heavily involved in the far east but due to a series of monumental blunders rendered itself impotent and a spent force. Only the USA had the resources to wage total war on two global fronts. Even Russia was unable to deal with the Japanese in any meaningful way until the European Axis bloc had been taken care of. The rest of the argument is dependent on "what if" speculation. What if the Japanese had not bombed Pearl Harbour? Could Britain have managed without help from the USA? There are so many permutations that its impossible to tell. I will say that the British, when backs are against the wall, can be ruthless and adaptable. In global conflict its all about attrition. The side that runs out of manpower and resources first is the side that capitulates. Britain is blessed in being an island nation and whilst the country was financially drained by WW1, it not only had a natural moat around it borders, it could also call upon the natural resources of the Commonwealth. All it had to do whilst rebuilding its strength was to ensure the oil supply, which is why North Africa was so important.

Relax, its generally accepted that our friend is neither posh, public school educated or catholic. I suspect he does not seek womanly warmth either.

I really don't want to be involved in this flag waving hubris but... What? 90% tax rates? Whilst there will always be horror stories, not surprising considering the size and reach of the NHS, the standard of British health care is on par with anything offered by the American system - all free at point of service and no co-payment nonsense either. 99.99% of internet traffic is carried by a network of cabling around the world. Satellites play a very small role in delivering internet data. The UK has in fact an extensive network of satellites used for both military and civilian use.

As a righteous man of the people you will no doubt honour your oath. I append below an image to install as your new avatar.

The lad definitely has issues. I suspect he wets the bed at night.

I was simply rebutting your ill-considered assertion, but maybe you should direct the accusation elsewhere after reading the posts I referred to. What's the mod stick got to do with it or are you just grasping at straws?

Oh, I dunno Dr C. I posted a short welcome, noting my pleasure at the speedy recovery from his latest episode and in the space of a few hours he rattled out seven posts over multiple threads either naming or referencing me. I'm no psychologist but I suspect an obsession of sorts...

Jeeze, you still rattling?

It's good to see you back from your latest sulk, Decs and for only two weeks this time so whilst you'll always be a brittle and temperamental diva its heartening that you're learning to be more robust.

Dude, its up to you how you identify yourself, personally I find it a tad creepy but if you must do the Grayson Perry thing or God forbid, Kris Jenner, then you ought to abide by the girl code - you can't have it both ways.
