I think I’ll give a whole episode a watch, maybe even a few additional episodes, before commenting that someone’s shin being seen is somehow un-TimeLordish - taken from a promo picture 😃

Like Anchorhead, I kind of like the varied, unpredictable and wide-ranging looks that the various Doctors have adorned over the years - aye, even that stick of celery 😉

Well, things BLEW UP at my place tonight.
Might be out on my ass. If ya don’t hear from me for the rest of yer life, that’s why.

I hope that isn’t the case mate - and all is a little better after a night’s kip.

It’s my thing. I’ve been doing it for years. When I did the previous sigh, I didn’t think it would be taken so seriously.

and I explained what it meant in this post:

I think it’s out of disappointment maybe.

slightly, and was also meant in somewhat tongue in cheek

May I suggest an option of you still doing your signature ‘sigh’ - yet with an explanation / reason / opinion etc as to why underneath?

It’d likely help fellow members understand as to what you are pertaining to - without having to ask what you mean and then wait for a later explanation - or help avoid any potential misunderstandings in between.

Also, as Possessed stated earlier - it ‘may help the quality and flow of discussion’ (nice one, Possessed 😉)

‘The First Doctor Enters The Twelfth Doctor’s TARDIS - Christmas Special Preview - Doctor Who - BBC’…

(a 2 minute trailer for the 2017 Christmas Special - so obviously contains footage - and may contain some mild spoilers)

Enjoyed that - nice one 😃

I did struggle to hear the end few words of the project, and was taken a little by surprise with the inclusion of Kenobi vs Fett’s battle - though loved the choice of music, the voice overlays, and feel of the trailer overall.

A figure of 8 and a climb & dive isn’t a waste of tax payer money. The aircraft is going to fly anyway - and do the various drills and maneuvers as it / the pilot should.

Kids too young to understand won’t get it, kids that get it may likely think it’s funny.

It would’ve likely dissipated soon afterwards anyway.

Really enjoyed season 12 of Red Dwarf - just the one poor-ish episode, with some quality episodes in there.

Hope they do a season 13 - signs are looking good…

Quality poster that.

Well, have you been tested mate? 😉

I have - however a most unfortunate accident left the sanity tester falling down a flight of stairs and somehow managing to dislodge the fire axe from it securing (behind some safety glass) and then falling onto it backwards with some force. Also seems a near-by fire extinguisher somehow fell onto the sanity tester’s head - repeatedly.

Apparently we’ll never know the results as a fire engulfed the testers’ car with all his files in - around the same time as the events above taking place.
 

A most unfortunate set of circumstances, I’m sure you agree…

Cheers, Frink - for clarity I wasn’t sure if you (and chyron) were referring to the mods here - or to your position as a mod on a different site.

The ‘hahahaha’ left it somewhat unclear - which is why we ask for some more information / reasons / opinions in posts instead of just the ‘hahahaha’ type aspect.

Just waiting for chyron’s response.

Edit - this was posted before Frink’s ‘insane’ post above.

That’s great that this has ended lads - so we don’t have to further derail Adywan’s thread further.

Agreed?

Nice one 😃

As ever, feel free to PM if you have any issues.

I’m proud to have been consistently confrontational.

And yet they thought you sane enough to make you a mod over at FE apparently.

That’s uncomfortably close to a personal attack.

It is not. Mods are not generally supposed to be known for being confrontational.

TV’s Frink said:

Hahahahaha.

Would you both like to explain what you are referring to in your respective posts?

Once they added in the patch that brought the “windows” back to Windows, 8 was perfectly fine.

ClassicShell was really useful for Windows 8 (having a Start Button and familiar UI Menu system / easy access to desktop screen etc) - and not at all embarrassing for those at Microsoft who said that it couldn’t be done at the time…

(I think the lad behind ClassicShell knocked it out days after the Windows 8 release too 😃)

Sean - the lad who doesn’t like CinemaSins - also did a decent video on The Force Awakens last year… (featuring Star Wars overall, the ‘Mary Sue’, and other complaints at the time etc)

The UK right-wing media’s calendar for next year…

International but when is it International Men’s day?

I don’t understand were the words “Women’s day” left out?

What are Halal Easter Eggs?

Insufficient Diana morning? Does that mean the right wing complains that people don’t mourn Diana enough, or that the right wingers themselves don’t mourn Diana enough?

Poppy rage?

Yes mate, they mistakenly left off the ‘Women’s Day’ from the text.

Halal eggs? http://metro.co.uk/2017/04/16/cadbury-easter-eggs-and-four-other-things-that-are-shockingly-halal-6577659/

Insufficient Diana mourning - The Express and The Mail both love a good Diana story (putting a pic of her on the front page sells copies apparently - and they use her a lot, stories, scoops, interviews with former staff and friends, conspiracy theories, diaries, trinkets etc). It’s like a ‘moral’ (financial) crusade to keep a quite one-eyed memory of her alive.

Poppy rage - people not wearing the poppy. For some reason ‘everyone’ has to wear a poppy - for the last few years it’s become an annual debate - those that do vs don’t and why, plus the intricacies of what the poppy represents (and doesn’t). Some more info here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remembrance_poppy
 

The right wing media laps this stuff up - cheap and easy to write, appeals to many ‘patriots’ and ‘man in the street’ types (apparently), plus a chance to denigrate it’s opponents or critics. It’s a circle of never ending complaining from them.

I think this is that kind of British humor that Americans just don’t get. (I know I don’t get it)

I’d disagree with that a bit mate - in that some people may find that kind of humour funny, or ‘get it’, wherever they are from. Likewise, some people - wherever they are from - may not.

I just wanna know why red posts like negative1.

This isn’t the thread for that mate.

There should be no such thing

Fully agree. I think I’ll suggest an IT Crowd quiz to Jay as part of the registering process for new members…

Cinemasins is utter crap.

Some great points in there from Shaun (with a good accent there 😃)

For some reason I don’t think he rates Cinemasins too highly…

I don’t know how you got that impression, I mean yes, one video is called “CinemaSins is Wrong About Everything”, but are you really sure?

Ah, I went straight to the ‘CinemaSins is Still Wrong About Everything’ 😉
