To extemporise for a moment
This is a world of the badly adjusted.

Those who are so badly adjusted that they fail to understand their shortcomings are the ones who get bullied.

In other words, we're shite but not THAT shite...

This place is nowhere near less mental than it used to be.
It's getting progressively more and more mental as the post count reaches 1,000,000, whereby we'll all explode and form a singularity of cliquey memes, incest, name-calling and no cake.

it does seem that there are no new people
just sock puppets of previous mentals who spectacularly flounced but are inexorably drawn back to the grey and lighter grey message boards
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Thu 7 Oct 2010, 21:28, Reply)

There's a few new faces here compared to a few months back when I was posting regularly.
Admittedly fewer mentals, but I think many of the regulars are more than making up for that.

You think?
I only hang out on QOTW and OT, and anecdotally, I would say that the mentalism quotient is lower than it was in about 2008. It's just that in line with the Quantity Theory as it is currently understood, there are larger concentrations of the total MQ in small areas of the B3ta society as a whole, notably, most recently, Bert and his incestuous, bile-filled explosion of rage and the multi-account bearing, multi-award winning, WBM.

Don't let highly visible, high concentrations of the MQ deceive you Noel.

There is, in my view, a lower general MQ lately.
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Thu 7 Oct 2010, 21:29, Reply)

I don't read QOTW any more, just the best-ofs when it's a good question.
In 2008 and much of 2009 OT didn't have the sharp edge it has now. Maybe we're talking about different things, but one blow-out, flounce or recurrence of old puppets every month or so makes it fun, for sure.

To my dismay
I've realised by checking my own profile that I've been wandering aimlessly about on here for just short of six years.

That's a lot of potential for spouting shite. Luckily for you I'm a very slow typist.

The MQ - as defined by Plumdozer - is not a constant. At the moment there is a trend towards sociable evening threads for which I'm grateful.

There is, however, always scope for another nutter and that's a challenge I'm equal to.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Thu 7 Oct 2010, 21:44, Reply)

The MQ, my dear man, owes a debt to Mr Will Self and his Quantity Theory of Insanity.
I have merely applied it to B3ta OT.

If you are in any "celebrity death pool" league
Will Self is worth an outside shot, because sure as shit he's going to try and top himself one fine day, just because he thinks he's better than death.

I was in one a lot of years ago.
The pot was up to £75 and I wiped it out with Mother Teresa.

Mother Teresa - you made me very happy the day you died and I'm very sorry but I sinned (a lot) and got ratarsed and took my mates to the old DV8 lapdancing place under the arches in Leeds.

But we said a prayer for you. Honest, like.
