WHY DON'T YOU FUCK OFF BACK TO /TALK?

I like you.

HAHAHA!

Did that make you feel good?
( SpikeyPickle wishes he was mabazaritchie, Wed 18 Mar 2009, 13:01, Reply)

by the looks of it
with an idle post that I made the other day suggesting that /talk is closing down it has caused some kind of panic.

This pleases me. Mainly because it has clogged up the board quite a lot, whereas similar things over here have been dismissed.

This leads me to several conclusions:
QOTWers are more apathetic than /talkers
/talks are crazed reactionaries
people believe what they read on the internet way too much

I've decided to love everyone on B3ta, even /talk.
Apart from Woodside Industries because he called me a bitter old hag. But I suppose he got two out of three right so I can't really complain.

Shut it

I've met some /talkers
And they were lovely.

I didn't kiss them though, God only knows where they've been.
( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Wed 18 Mar 2009, 13:36, Reply)

You should have kissed them, then
maybe you could have discerned where they had been by the taste.

'Hmm, this one tastes like Lancaster.' That kind of thing.

Suck my cock!
( girlinthehole, Wed 18 Mar 2009, 13:40, Reply)

I didn't think /talkers
were allowed out into the real world.

But then I met that guy.. with the pimp hat... I forget his name but he was all snuggly and lovely and made me laugh so then I realised that /talkers are just like us but less willing to make up shit to impress other people on the internet and claim best of on teh QOTW.

Then I realised I was just wibbling and went to find some cake

Yes please miss!

While I'm at it, can I give you a good rimming?

You refer, of course, to SuperMatt. Him and Kersal Missive were a joy to behold, if only for their pimp hats and skull-shoes respectively.

@Bert
No rimming but my sink is blocked so you can plunger it if you like.

/talk annoys me so!
Somebody just posted a thread - Q: "What are you doing today":

The answers:
1)Eating
2)I've Just got hom
3)Working
4)Fuck All
5)YOUR HAT IS ON FIRE

On another note I greatly enjoy the /talkers name 'Giant Rat of Sumatra'

Not too sure why

she is nice.

Does she have...
A giant rat?

Can she show me it?

( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Wed 18 Mar 2009, 14:52, Reply)

Maybe I should change my name
to the Aluminum Crutch? Or perhaps the Five Orange Pips?

(The giant rat of Sumatra and the aluminum crutch are references that Sherlock Holmes made to cases that were too grotesque to share with the world. The Five Orange Pips was one of the stories Doyle wrote.)

I was getting ready to congratulate you on spotting the Sherlock Holmes reference
but it's aluminium, damnit!
(username1, Wed 18 Mar 2009, 15:35, Reply)

Only over there.
Here it's aluminum.

Just as it's color, honor, humor and so on.

I suppose I could affect the English spelling in my posts by throwing in extraneous letters all over the place, but I'm American, and spell words accordingly.

( The Resident Loon Not a demographic. Do not measure., Wed 18 Mar 2009, 15:55, Reply)

Au contraire
It's only in America it's spelt aluminum, rather than only in the UK it's spelt aluminium.

The IUPAC call it aluminium, and if it's good enough for them...*

(username1, Wed 18 Mar 2009, 15:58, Reply)

Fair enough.
Nonetheless, I was a little surprised that someone else understood the Holmes reference- I assumed I was the only one in here geeky enough to have read all of the Holmes stories!
( The Resident Loon Not a demographic. Do not measure., Wed 18 Mar 2009, 16:20, Reply)

Nah
I'd suspect that quite a few people here have read the lot!

I've got some of them several times, I've got the collected works in one massive book plus some interesting vintage editions. Some of my favourite stories ever :D
