QUESTION: What noise is the worst?

The relentless noise of your dying dreams as you realise that suddenly you're getting older quicker and you spend every waking moment thinking about death, resulting in insomnia and the loss of all energy with which you might have a slim chance of doing something worthwhile with your life. That noise.
Wait, I mean Toploader.

But it's a bit harsh that yours isn't in there. Was a time when the image compo was The Top Three As Voted rather than some discretionary thing like the QOTW.

Although from my perspective it's pretty academic cos I rarely trouble the popular page these days :'o(

What's the point of being a b3tan if it's all for nothing? Don't bother answering that, it's time I left this site.

Nor did I know the point of posting was to be on the popular page, let alone the front page. For me that's probably a good thing since they're all well out of my fliddy reach. But then I never check the front page or the popular page and rarely pay close attention to the image challenge part of the newsletter.
I think it's all too possible to take this place too seriously.

Happened with one of mine, but it was a bit quick and shit, so I wasn't overly perturbed. It's not a democracy, but still.

Have seen plenty of good stuff on here that barely gets any attention (I don't mean mine - I'm fully aware that most stuff I post is shit), but when a well-known name posts something it immediately garners comments and votes even if it's low in hummus. I think everything in life is like that though. It's whom you know...

So they shouldn't be screened by the mods at all.

seemed to be in the top three every week. Some of them were funny, but some were just faceswaps. I can see whoever placed 4th getting pissed off with that.

One week I was third and didn't get a mention. Another week I was 23rd and did get a mention.
It balances out in the end.

And then my entry was mod-edited out of the compo on the Thursday for some reason, and I flounced like some sort of Clay.
And then I realised that it DOESN'T FUCKING MATTER and came back :)

It happened to my Mo compo entry as well, but it got FP'd so I didn't moan :)

Fuck yeah! I've been on here ten years, and I think that's the first time I've been in the newsletter. Frankly, I've got a semi just thinking about it.
Sorry, got a bit excited there. Just off to blow my own trumpet.

I carved it, filmed it(using a chair with celotaped Duplo bits to it, as a camera holder), edited it and added the sound. It should proudly be in the "What the B3ta'ns did this week" section.
