First topic message reminder :

It's just as funny on the second read.

Says the man who claims to have slept with Rachel Weisz.

She's had the hump with me for a while now, I foolishly admitted that Roger Moore is my favourite Bond.
Forget her, she's clearly a stupid bint if she can't see that Moore is a far superior Bond to all others (for the record, not that I care too much about the whole culture but Tom Baker is also the best/ONLY Dr Who). Weisz also shared intimate screen time with Brendan Fraser which I firmly believe will have resulted in her losing at least 34-37% of her brains cells and the man is some kind intelligence leech.

I sat through George of the Jungle a few years bad and I still can't remember whatisface's name!

Just IMDB'd it and I suspect that's what set you off on your killing spree.

Congratulations on a really excellent 4350th post, Galted.

One of your finest.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 8:13

Thank you, Tino. 6 more from you and your total will look like the word "BOOB".

by Mind the windows Tino. Tue 31 Dec - 8:15

I can't wait for that.

I might just stop at that point and never post again. I think it would be a fitting finale.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 8:22

It would but your retirement would make 606 v2 Off Topic even more pointless. Why not carry on until 80085?

by Mind the windows Tino. Tue 31 Dec - 8:25

I did promise to run a music cup in the new year so I might have to postpone retirement anyway.

I know how much everyone is looking forward to another cup competition.

80085 is something to aim at. You're an inspiration, Galted.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 8:30

The year is certainly ending on a high, I've never been called an inspiration before (apart from for forced euthanasia). The music cup is something for me to aim at, if I survive the tough selection process would you mind pm'ing me the rounds before everyone else gets them so I can do a bit of research? Would like to have a few more answers than Love Will Tear Us Apart and Pearly Dewdrops Drops.

by Mind the windows Tino. Tue 31 Dec - 8:35

I fear for you a little bit as Love Will Tear Us Apart is banned. As is Hurt and Don't Look Back In Anger.

When I have decided on the categories, I will try and get a 'Best Cocteau Twins' song round in there.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 8:38

Cheers. I've got a Bangles album somewhere, might give that a listen. Anything to tip the scales in my favour, haven't exactly set the world alight in any of the 4 cups so far.

by Mind the windows Tino. Tue 31 Dec - 8:41

I wouldn't say that. You did pick To Kill A Mockingbird in one of the Culture Cup rounds and that is the best book ever.

Can't remember any other worthwhile contributions, but I'm sure there must have been some.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 8:44

I did also, cynically, pick Oldboy in one of the rounds expecting a flurry of votes which never happened.

by 6cw Hobo Tue 31 Dec - 8:44

If you want to win the music cup, just pick anything by Joy Division.

That should work.

I think you should make one of the music rounds Insect based.

Any song by or about insects (such as by the beatles or Adam and the Ants)

I think Jeff voted for that from memory.

Didn't rate it all that highly myself.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 8:50

It was ok but I'd developed an idea that everyone on 606 was obsessed with it, despite you very unprofesionally advising me to the contrary.

by Mind the windows Tino. Tue 31 Dec - 8:53

I hate that emoticon. I wish I hadn't used it now.

It has ruined that post.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 9:01

FFS, I was having a poo and missed it.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 9:02

For some reason most of the emoticons don't show up when I'm at work so your post looks fine to me.

by Mind the windows Tino. Tue 31 Dec - 9:04

It was that stupid yahoo dancing one.

I feel pretty low now. Could have been one of my best ever posts and now it just looks stupid to everyone but you.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 9:06

Send Rowley a picture of a whippet smeared in gravy and he might use the smite button to your advantage.

by Mind the windows Tino. Tue 31 Dec - 9:07

They are private pictures and I'm not really prepared to share them yet.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 9:09

This is a fairly awkward situation, I would have liked to use a laugh emoticon but there are two and I couldn't be sure which one to use and I know that you dislike "lol".

by 6cw Hobo Tue 31 Dec - 9:12

Have you tried a ROFL?

We havent gauged how he feels about that.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 9:13

I dislike that one so much I would have to do a bit of self-harming if I ever used it.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 9:13

"Lmfao" as well, I just shuddered as I typed it.

by Mind the windows Tino. Tue 31 Dec - 9:15

I really dislike 'l*l'. Not as much as Jeff dislikes it though.

If he was still a Admin, he would almost certainly ban you if you use it. But, he did get demoted to a humble Mod so he can't really. He is a bit of a toothless tiger these days.

Leave it up to you if you feel like goading him.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 9:17

Do you reckon he'd dislike it if I referred to him as "Rowley-Poly"?

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 9:19

Would make a good kids' story, "Rowley-Poly the Toothless Tiger".

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 9:20

And the uncut version for all the psychotic little Tinos could be about how Rowley-Poly loved eating whippets in gravy.

by Mind the windows Tino. Tue 31 Dec - 9:21

Galted wrote:Do you reckon he'd dislike it if I referred to him as "Rowley-Poly"?

I think he would hate it.

He would pretend he didn't, but it would eat away at his soul.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 9:25

It's quite relaxing on here today without Rowley and Julius shooting me down in flames every few minutes. A bit like dipping your feet in a hotel pool when there are no toddlers p1ssing in it.

Never go in a ball pit, Galted. Little bit of advice from your old pal, Tino.

Yes, Julius is a scoundrel. Too clever and too witty. I will get my revenge when I change every pick of his in the '14 Music Cup to songs by Mika.

I (just to drag it back a bit) really despise with a passion "PMSL"

All my friends seem to have developed some kind of severe bladder infection that makes them lose control over anything that may be considered even remotely fun... It is not fun.

by Rowley Tue 31 Dec - 9:31

Fear not galted back in work today so normal service will be resumed. Also don't let Tina to convince you l*l is acceptable, it is the calling card of the cretin.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 9:32

Oh f**k, he's on here. Run away!

That one's made even worse by the fact that "myself" is one word so it should be "PML". People who use that are one of the reasons violence was invented.

We don't need to be scared of him. He just has a blue badge. It doesn't carry any authority. He basically does all the jobs that Adam can't be arsed with.

Nice Christmas, Jeff?

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 9:40

I'm not really familiar with the various roles and am not on a first-name basis with any of them so I fear them all as authority figures (by the way, "Nice Christmas, Jeff?" is just showing off, like wrestling with a dog that's just made your mate sh!t himself with its bark).

The sandpit advice deserves a laugh emoticon, well done.

Jeff is a big softy. He is intimidated by me though. And quite rightly.

It was ball pit advice. Not really that clued up on sandpits.

It genuinely does make me feel all Stabby furious

Sorry about that, couldn't really be arsed to scroll up and check.

This is your moment Rowley! Protect us from oringtonchan's spamming!

by Mind the windows Tino. Tue 31 Dec - 10:02

I was going to say hello to oringtonchan.

That isn't very welcoming to a new poster, Galted.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 10:04

Bloody hell, Tino, this thread's resulted in 37 pages so far, you don't need to solicit more irrelevant posts, surely?

@ oringtonchan - there's a thread on Reykjavik you might want to see.

It was about as long as one of Fourth Lions posts.

He/she's already up to 27 posts, it took me months of carefully considered contributions to get there.

by **Galted** Tue 31 Dec - 10:09

by Mind the windows Tino. Tue 31 Dec - 10:11

34 now. Way out in the lead for today's top 20 posters.

You're in second. Well done.
