This is a question Not-stalgia

Willenium tugs our sleeve and says: Tell us why the past was a bit shit. You may wish to use witty anecdotes reflecting your own personal experience.

Expensive. But worth it.
£1 a week pocket money. £2.80 a week paper round. £15 grandparents birthday present (£5 from evil set, £10 from lovely set).

It all adds up.

I admit there were quite a few.
But a fair amount of boobies too.

i doubt you were even alive in 1987 if you think a porno would cost a tenner to buy let alone rent
i had my 21st birthday in 1987 - champagne was only just over a fiver from the offie and a pint was under a quid in a shit club ... either your memory is crap or this story is bullshit
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 15:26, closed)
Supply and demand my good friend.
A fiver a night was the most he could push for - and he got it.

Most kids at a minor public school in the home counties could stretch to that.

But don't that stop you getting all upset about it, at 47yrs old, on the internet.
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 15:31, closed)
so you were too thick to get it elsewhere?
the story is obvious bs but i think personal stupidity is the best excuse you're going to dig up
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 15:35, closed)
Indeed.
I was 'too thick to get it elsewhere' - at 13yrs old, still living with mum & dad in a sleepy Buckinghamshire village.

But again, don't let it spoil your day. If I was nearly 50 and my day consisted of parading round an internet message board with a hilarious comedy account, I guess I would get all upset too about the prices charged by a 13yr old purveyor of pornography, 25 years ago.

Maybe you could look him up? Tell him yourself that he had his pricing structure all wrong.

You seem a bit cross, Alb.
Why not have a £100 wank and calm down?
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 15:52, closed)
I'm not cross, Monts.
I'm simply responding to claims regarding the veracity of my story, lest I am made out to be someone who is economical with the truth.
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 15:55, closed)
Are you so un-upset that you've been caught liemallowing yet again
that you're going to run away for a few weeks in a not-at-all upset flounce?
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 16:46, closed)
Welcome back!
Now all I need is miserymcboredom to make an appearance. Can't see him on recent qotw's...you finally driven him away?
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 17:08, closed)
If only.
He created a new account and put the whole site on ignore.

Then keeps logging in and out to respond to people.
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 17:11, closed)
What's the account?
So I can place it on a preemptive ignore.
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 17:13, closed)
you won't need to. He has the world on ignore
s0ckpuppet is the name
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 18:18, closed)
Jesus...
I'm away for 5 minutes and this happens:

He won?!

Tempted to flounce again.
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 19:04, closed)
I haven't been anywhere, petal.
You're the one who flounced away after one too many liemallows.
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 17:48, closed)
It was a deeply sarcastic welcome back - to me.

(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 18:21, closed)
I feel quite churlish now. I'm sorry.
Please accept my warm welcome back. Try not to be too upset when people point out your obvious lies.
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 19:00, closed)
i'm deffo the one who appears upset here

(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 15:56, closed)
Cheer up grandad.
Any plans for your fiftieth?
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 15:58, closed)
are you even upset about my age?

(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 16:33, closed)
Furious.

(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 16:34, closed)
I don't want to take sides Mr right
but in this particular thread I have to agree with you.
(, Wed 4 Sep 2013, 16:59, closed)
Really?
Yet he's so upset he deleted half his post.

Apologies alright - I didn't mean to embarrass you, yet you suddenly deleted the reference to your age, why was that?

Hit a nerve?

It's too small, I know. But this afternoon he was spouting on about celebrating his 21st birthday in 1987, he was awfully upset about it - but a quick edit and they've all gone, making my replies seem nonsensical. But I knew he'd do this - hence the screencap.

No man approaching 50 is that pathetic, are they? (not counting MiseryMcSickPenis of course).
(, Thu 5 Sep 2013, 0:26, closed)
I don't think anything has been deleted.
McMisery has probably put you on ignore. He's put everybody who gets any attention on ignore. It's the only way he can feel popular.
(, Thu 5 Sep 2013, 8:37, closed)
Nope.
In my image, alright bangs on about celebrating his 21st birthday in 1987 - then suddenly deletes the reference as he realises that as a fiftysomething man arguing over internet stories, is a tad embarrassing.
(, Thu 5 Sep 2013, 8:45, closed)
I can still see it

(, Thu 5 Sep 2013, 8:55, closed)
I can also still see it.
Then again I'm a forty something man arguing about something on the internet so I wouldn't listen to a word I say.
(, Thu 5 Sep 2013, 8:59, closed)
He put it back!
Stop messing with my head. Though I have an almighty suspicion that Shambolic / Alright are one and the same...
(, Thu 5 Sep 2013, 9:03, closed)
He's apparently either me or Brayndedd or cowfoot.
Except it's pretty obvious who he actually is given that it was never actually a secret.
(, Thu 5 Sep 2013, 9:13, closed)
It's a bit sad just how much you come across
as someone trapped in "being cool at high-school" mentality you really are.

And if you look carefully (which I'm starting to see is a bit hard for you) none of my posts are in that pic and I didn't join the thread until much lower down.
Idiot.
