Ahem
Name me one occasion where you and I have shared a forum and the denizens thereof have convalesced and concluded that you, rather than I, were fair game for teasing and japery?

Why would we need to convalesce?
It's not like we'd all been ill!

In hindsight, that might not have been the word I meant to use
But in the absence of a viable alternative and the presence of your good point I feel an edit would be a fruitless venture

conversed
is probably what you were going for

I think you're probably right
I had this idea that there was a fancier word for it but the more I think about it, the more likely it becomes that I was trying to be cleverer than I am

more likely.

I would never say that.

Because of the inherent falsehood

The latter, dear boy.

Come to think of it, you probably know what that piece is called
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Fri 30 Jul 2010, 9:04, Reply)

Sadly not.
I never even got to see that programme when I was a boy, because it was on ITV and until I was about six my mother claimed we could only get BBC on our television, in an attempt to shield me from common people and advertisements.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 30 Jul 2010, 9:06, Reply)

Hahaha!
They probably had lesbians on ITV too. I bet she's feeling sheepish now.

I made a conscious decision to become a Children's BBC kid
I used to turn back to ITV for the Chart Show though (but even that doesn't count because it was Channel 4 first)
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Fri 30 Jul 2010, 9:09, Reply)

I always watched BBC children's programmes.
Except at lunchtime, because ITV had such delights as Rainbow, Jamie and the Magic Torch, and Chorlton and the Wheelies.

The Flumps were on later, on BBC.

Jamie and the magic torch! Fantastic
And Handful of Songs - I liked that too.

Handful of Songs
Was that Ralph McTell? The programme where kids sent in pictures and asked for songs to be sung for them?
( K2k6 has a proper job these days, Fri 30 Jul 2010, 9:21, Reply)

I hate Ralph McTell
I'll show him something, that'll make him change his mind ABOUT EVER FUCKING SINGING ANYWHERE NEAR ME EVER A-FUCKING-GAIN, the anodyne cockmuncher.

You take that copy

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 30 Jul 2010, 9:36, Reply)

I watched all those because I was at still at nursery/reception
Let's not forget Cockleshell Bay, followed by The Sullivans.
But at some point in infants or juniors I switched because ITV went shit and I liked the cozy institution of the BBC.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Fri 30 Jul 2010, 9:16, Reply)

The Sullivans were good
really good. Far better than Neighbours.

Whilst this is both amusing and understandable
It also smacks of bollocks, because I have a feeling that I'm 6 years younger than you for some reason and I saw it on TV. Probably in repeat form, but on TV nonetheless
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Fri 30 Jul 2010, 9:11, Reply)

Did you see it on ITV?
Can you actually read?
And by the time he was Six Monty had grown out of childrens TV
( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Fri 30 Jul 2010, 9:14, Reply)

I'm sure you'd love to smack some bollocks
but I can assure you that this is 100% true. It meant that I regularly had no idea what people were talking about in the schoolyard. Thank you so much, mother.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 30 Jul 2010, 9:18, Reply)

Presumably this is why you've made such a point of riding the crest of the zeitgeist wave ever since
To clarify; I didn't mean to intimate that your fable of ITV restriction was bollocks, merely that not seeing ITV before the age of six wouldn't necessarily stop you seeing The Incredible Hulk, as it was repeated after you were six

Not my style though. I very rarely call someone a cunt, even on B3ta. Unless they deserve it
