Festive 2017 WDYTOE

[Magic]

I'd like to have Tobe, Dela, Taz and PB back, others couldn't give a fuck about imo

[Pleb]

Add Don to the list of ones that are sorely missed.
That was Taz wasn't it?

He must of had a right seethe when he first saw this place.

[Giggles]

That was Taz wasn't it?

He must of had a right seethe when he first saw this place.

He threw a bitch episode about his name here and was never seen again.

I forgot about dust as well. So it's Toby, Don, Fry, and Angeldust and the rest can stay fucked off.

[Baz]

Yeah Taz should definitely come back.

He’s on Facebook but you can’t send him a friend request for some reason.
SincereTheRebel should text him :nod:

[Jimmy Floyd]

Reading through 'Play Your Heart Out' there, it strikes me that that thread is equidistant in time from today, and from Christmas 1986.

[Giggles]

I always seen it mentioned but I never knew what that Play Your Heart..... thing was. Seema more pointless than most things.

[phonics]

If I'm correct. TTH's existence is closer to the first Beatles album than it is today.

[Giggles]

Also, is it supposed to be said to the tune of 'Get yer tits out for the lads'? Because that's how I always say it in my head.

[Jimmy Floyd]

If I'm correct. TTH's existence is closer to the first Beatles album than it is today.

You are not even close to being correct.

[Giggles]

If I'm correct. TTH's existence is closer to the first Beatles album than it is today.

Did you think Jimmy meant that thread was from 1986?

[Jimmy Floyd]

To save phonics's embarrassment, here's a half hour list. Deal with it. I lost interest as the alphabet wore on, so soz Yevrah.

Adamski does the Scotsman thing better than John does, although John’s shtick is more misanthrope than man of the Caledonian wastes. I don’t know how they’ve developed this victim complex up there, when in fact they’ve been prosperous for all eternity. Perhaps it’s the decline of the shipyards and Thatcher, which, if so, means they are identical to northern England and there is nothing different about Scotland at all.
Alan Shearer The 2nd, on the other hand, suggests that there might be.
Sir Andy Mahowry is back to being good after a period of being shite. This is all in relative terms, of course, he’s not yet Vonnegut or Dostoevsky.
Baz straddles the divide between fun-loving scamp and unpleasant weirdo with such ease that it’s never easy to tell on which side of the line he is going to fall next. He is probably one of those things pretending very hard to be the other.
Bernanke should post in sentences of more than three words.
Boydy should not.
Browning I encounter only through reading the NFL Fantasy thread, which, remarkably, I do on a semi-religious basis. I massively dislike American football, but I like reading about bizarre subcultures that I don’t understand.
Dan is also in this category, although he’s gone properly native on it. I don’t see the attraction. Too much physicality in the game versus strategy – and yes, you’ll tell me there is lots of strategy but that is true of every sport up to and including tiddlywinks. I enjoy sports that are brain first and brawn second (or third, or fourth) and so baseball is the one for me.
Danny is a good poster but also probably going native.
Dark Soldier is at his calmest and most relaxed ever, it strikes me.
dino will become ill if he bets for many more years, but I've learned quite a lot from him (not really about betting which I've weaned myself off, but ways of looking at the world).
Disco is a great poster and his posts make up for the shameful absence of cord’s.
Giggles I really, really like nowadays, which will probably ruin his day. I like the linguistic magic dust he sprinkles on the board, with his ‘grand’ and his ‘I’ve pizza’ and so on.
Henry does the best book reviews but let me tell you this Henry, and it’s been bugging me for fifteen years now, possessive apostrophes FUCKING EXIST. ‘Henry’s’, not ‘Henrys’.
Ian is class, like the poster I would be if I wasn’t a pretentious cunt.
igor_balis is also class and lives life to the full (ish), which is to be admired.
ItalAussie only posts at about 11pm our time nowadays, or 9am, but in a way that makes him better as he used to get pissed off when drawn into massive debates with Harold ‘The Bishop’ Bishop and his friends and followers.
John’s best moments come when he isn’t being a theatrically narky git, but it’s still pretty funny when he is. I don’t mind his TV analysing, it’s original and more interesting than reading another twat whinge about The Walking Dead being shit. Why do you watch it then?
John Arne often doesn’t understand things the first time around, probably because he’s been trying to hold Hill 875 for the last thirty years, but otherwise is as good as he’s ever been.
Kikó is nice but I’m afraid I can’t think of anything to say about your recent posting other than that it isn’t shit.
Lewis, had he been born in a prosperous, hip and happening, well-connected part of the country rather than whatever fusty backwater he is in, would be poncing it up, probably as a staff writer for the Independent, or at a think tank, and campaigning hard to #stopbrexit. He’d also be getting paid. That’s all it is, Betts. Accident of birth.
Magic is a stupid sweaty prick, but all the more entertaining for it.
Max Power, still good as ever.
Mazuuurk posts well and I love winding him up about international breaks.
mikem, yes sir yes sir yes sir.
mokbull is one of those wankers with a superiority complex. Can't be doing with the likes of him.
niko_cee, bravo, etc.
Offshore Toon will probably grow up now, shame, although that post about drugging himself with some drugs at a work do suggests maybe not.
Pepe is a sarcastic Mexican fuck.
phonics I like more than I once did, but it is funny how he gets things wildly wrong. I agree with him about more things than I used to as well, although he used to be a right lefty wet weekend and I used to be drier than peanuts in the Kalahari.
Pleb is fun. He understands literally nothing, but that is no barrier to entry; a thick skin is, and he has one.
Queenslander is a funny read, shame he doesn’t post more although these days that tag applies to literally the entire board except me and Mahow.
randomlegend is a grouchy so-and-so. Loves jumping on me posting wrong things about football. I post wrong things about football, old bean, what are you going to do about it? Also the last person to harbour that mid-2000s-style massive bias towards his own team, which is a bit out of date on today’s TTH.
Raoul Duke, I read the book from which your username comes recently, I really enjoyed it.
Reg, good these days, I probably slated him for being tactics truck in the past but now real life, and indeed Twitter, has far overtaken him in that regard so looking back he was probably a VISIONARY.
Samadini, class horse.
Shindig’s short sentences referring back to things that probably never happened in 1997 are gold, never change.
SincereTheRebel’s boxing posts, like the NFL fantasy balls, Henry’s book reviews and so forth, I could read for hours. I know nothing about the subject matter and have no interest in it, but find it fascinating to read posts from someone who does and has. Enthusiasm, and subcultures, are what keeps the world turning.
Spikey M, good now, a survivor of many TTH eras.
Spoonsky, probably too busy having unprotected sex with anorexic girls and boys now to bother much with us.
SvN I like more each time I do a list. I think I’ve grown into him.
Waffdon: Cahill isn’t that bad, you spaz.

[igor_balis]

Despite not being on here, this nostalgia-fest has got me all wistful for the days before the normies took over the internet.

[randomlegend]

I'm not sure what's wrong with telling you you're wrong when you're wrong. I wouldn't want you to keep being wrong.

I'm sure you'd tell me I'm wrong if I came in the politics threads being wrong everywhere.

"Quality control", innit.

[mugbull]

Chill out Jim Jim

[Samadini]

Is being a horse a good thing? And is that class as in I'm a really good horse, or like the classroom horse? And is that a good thing (probably not)?

I'm going to say it's a good thing.

[Jimmy Floyd]

It's a horse racing term, i.e. 'Monty's Gonads is the class horse in this field'. It means you're good and not shit.

[Samadini]

:cool:

I quite like the idea of there being a classroom horse.

[Boydy]

Meanie.

[Magic]

Jimmy still seething at the paedo jab.

[Pleb]

I made the list :cool:

Chris Jericho must be having a meltdown if he were to ever come across this thread.

[Kikó]

Not being shit is acceptable.

[Offshore Toon]

I'm nowhere near growing up. I think at 30 I might give it a shot, but only if I want children.

[Pen]

This thread has been great. Feels good to revel in nostalgia. And we have our first list too. Didn’t think that would happen.

[Queenslander]

If it wasn't for this board Id be just another convict Australian walking around humming 'Aussie Aussie Aussie! Oi Oi Oi!'

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

You can still be the man you were born to be.

[Giggles]

I've started and done a whole two entries, but I'm too drunk to use the keyboard on the tablet and the editing is driving me mad.

[Lewis]

The classiest man to come out of Brisbane is Mr Fourex.

[Giggles]

I got the laptop out. That's how much I love you fuckers. I've done enough for tonight though.


Adamski - Very up and down in the past. Went through periods of being really great and then even more of every post being a snarky jab. But he’s a scot I suppose. Seems to have binned it lately for the ‘group’, so what I wrote preceding this is probably irrelevant anyway.

Sir Andy Mahowry - Annoys the fuck out of me at times in the NFL stuff and his over use of the word disgusting, but he’s a mainstay and is better more times than he’s not. Gets far too much shit at times about his personal life too but I don’t think he gives a shit.

Baz - Baz sometimes seems like a really sound, but not to my taste, happy go lucky guy. Too much LAD. But there’s always something dangerous that worries me about him too.

Boydy - Doesn’t post a big pile now but I wish he did. Love the dourness, a man after my own heart. I’d love to go on an impromptu session with him and never speak of it again.

Browning - Can’t remember now why I left him on the list I edited but I think it’s for NFL stuff. Inoffensive.

Byron - I always mix him up with someone else. Has an angry and snappy streak that always surprises me because I mix him up with someone else. I think it’s Foe.

CJay - The only other Irish poster but I never really think of him as Irish and I don’t think he does either, but then again that’s Donegal. Seems a good guy though but another I don’t recall a big pile from lately.

Dark Soldier - alreet, etc. I never really know what he’s saying to be honest. But, and I have no reasoning for thinking this that I can put my finger on, if I was in a ball of shit and could call one poster to dig me out then he’d be the man. Maybe it’s because he seems streetwise, maybe it’s because he seems sound but yeah. Forum is better now that he’s very active.

dino - Snarky twat the vast majority of the time but has the odd moment.

Disco - Another one who would cut you to the bone as soon as look at you, but we need shit like that.

Foe - Foe is absolutely amazing. The vast knowledge and brilliance of the man is only matched by his amazing looks. Never ever gets ratty.

Regards,
Foe.

Giggles - Absolutely fucked in every way shape and form.

Hammer - Hammatime. Couldn’t help but like Hammer. Seems to have relaxed a bit since he used to get all defensive about his eyes wide shut clubs and just rolls with it now. I also take a passing interest in the MIGHTY BLADES :cool: now because of him.

Henry - Not as highly strung as he used to be but still highly strung. Seems a bit green about a lot of stuff but book smart for what he lacks in life smart. Never cross paths too much as he’s all about the politics. And films. Loves the films.

Ian - Ian is a sound man and definitely one I’d sesh with, even though we’d be mangled after two pints of some obscure 29% beer.

igor_balis - Always has good stories and I like he’s not a full of himself cock even though he seems to be doing absolutely fine at things. Probably goes over the line of being too hard on himself at times.

ItalAussie - Never liked Ital as I always found him/her to be a condescending twat, but the less he/she posts the more I think he/she brings to the place. Probably really nice but in that too nice kind of way.

Jimmy Floyd - Jimmy is probably the best poster here right now. Has a hand in everything and I find myself agreeing with him more and more, which is something I would have shuddered at a few years ago. Seems a very eloquent man but never one I feel I know all that much about at the same time, though he seems a lot more human in the last year or so. Probably down to the Korea stories, which are gold.

John - I like John, though it probably never seems like it. I call him a cunt a lot but it’s only because he is a cunt and needs to be called a cunt, but when he’s not being cartoonishly angry he’s very funny and adds a lot. Even the OTT stuff adds a lot. Is far far too serious about television series though.

[-james-]

Just got home half drunk. This will probably be shit.


AD Probably very good at betting, if only he had more spare time after finishing his Oxford law degree.
Adamski Is a dick for what seems like banter points more often than is necessary.
Amigo I felt like we had a fair bit in common in growing up in countries we'd hadrather not have. Curious to know what he ended up doing.
Andy I've never spoken to him but Facebook enables me to know he's just got engaged. Congrats m8.
Baz Hopefully not as much of a danger as some of the stuff on here makes him out to be.
Boydy Steven Gerrard is god.
Cord The most unexpected mugshot of all time
elth R. I. P.
Giggles Possibly ahead of his time
GS Spectacularly different to any person I've ever met and unsurprisingly antagonised on here. Would be a loss even if I think he's a wanker most of the time.
Ian Good guy, even if he was a sucker for always having to defend at haxball.
Jimmy Floyd I likely disagree with him on a lot more things than not, but he's so good at conveying opinions that he mostly sounds agreeable
John I've met plenty of people like John while living in Glasgow, but never anyone that's remotely as much of a dick.
Kikó I spilled red wine down my shirt at his flat, he lent me a t-shirt and I never gave him it back. I think Kiko is the opposite of the person in that anecdote.
Magic Maybe the best poster on the new board, and I don't mean that to take the piss.
Mazuuurk Valuable poster.
Mert Valuable poster, actually
niko_cee Similar effect to Jimmy Floyd
Offshore Toon Lost the drugs I gave him at Glastonbury a few years ago, which I now realise was intentional and likely for the best.
Panda Bear One of those people with whom I probably have a fair bit in common but with whom I'm not sure I could ever have a conversation .
randomlegend League of legends is shit.
Reg Good in football threads etc.
Samadini :thbup:
Shindig His posts in the jobs thread are the most beautifully mundane thing on the board, and hold strong value in how they seem to wind certain members up.
SincereTheRebel Another I hope returns
Spoonsky I do hope he's doing well.
Waffdon Some of the best football opinions on the board
Yevrah Good etc. Another with well formed opinions.

[Baz]

Bloody hell Franco loves TTH. :drool:

EDIT: all the lists!

I don’t understand why people think I’m a secret murderer though. :saywhat:

[Waffdon]

You do look a bit rapey, tbf. x

[Waffdon]

When the fuck did Cord put a mugshot up?

[Queenslander]

The classiest man to come out of Brisbane is Mr Fourex.

Millennials have ruined XXXX by calling it Milton Mangos.

[Dave.]

Oimoi is probably running a Blairite think tank by now.

Martin still posts as Dave.

Correct (quite possibly on both counts).

For some reason (I'm guessing due to lending my account to Harold Bishop a while back), my account was deleted but there was nothing in Room 101 mentioning why so I created this account so I could pop in and post when I'm bored at work.

I don't post about Sunderland because I don't have the time to do it justice plus writing about the current state of affairs would depress me. I still go to every home game plus the occasional away.

[Henry]

I went to see Sunderland play a few weeks ago. I like the club but they are utter shit right now.

[ItalAussie]

Glad you're still about, Martin.

Also just did a quick check on ScousePig, as I couldn't remember if he'd posted in a while - he's still about, which is nice.

I've really quite enjoyed this thread. Nostalgia. :nodd:

I also agree with the assessment that Jimmy's the best poster here right at this moment.

[Spikey M]

That’s Giggles and James in the ‘dead to me’ list.

[Giggles]

That’s Giggles and James in the ‘dead to me’ list.

[Adamski]

Ive never spoken to anyone from this forum anywhere but this forum you mentalist.

[Spikey M]

I'm not finished.

I want an entry, damnit.

Although I’m not doing a list so you’ll get nothing in return.

[Giggles]

The Group :D

Aye I forgot you bought the new gaff. That can be time consuming.

[Baz]

Reckon Lee still browses?

[-james-]

Went to read that list back and the first thing that met the eye was that I said Magic is the best poster on the board. I must have been spiked.

[Kikó]

We have no Scottish in the group.

[Spikey M]

Do you have it in your power to end the group Keeks?

As in close it, not demand some kind of mass suicide. Although you would make quite the Cult leader.

[Giggles]

We have no Scottish in the group.

GS practically is.

Do a list Magic.

[Magic]

I have to do my '17 review too. So much original content.

[Foe]

I'll post the review thread in a week or so.

Don't steal my shit you little bitch.

[Giggles]

Two looking to do the review thread. Heady days.

[Mellberg]

Good read.

Some of the stuff DS was rattling off had to be fished from the Mariana Trench of the memory bank. Noticeable how many different eras there's been too when you get it down on paper.

I'm gonna make an effort to post more again. Have neglected this place for a few years now.

And KJAC being 26 has seen my head fall off and roll under the table.

[Mellberg]

Remember doing a story in TMD where me, Kiko, Sean and Pabs took on Villa, Newcastle, United and Spurs. That was a good laugh. Still bitter that in the season I finally got it together (fourth?) and was top by a mile they all bailed and stole my glory.

The Merger was great. Load of wanky twats, but good in a 'let's rip the shit out of them until they leave' way.

Brighton's meltdowns were brilliant. Him and Mark blatantly hated TTH, but saw it as a necessary evil.

27 pages on Henry vs van Nistelrooy. Actually any big event would see 30 pages by the end of the night. If a London bomb went off the TTH bat sign would go up and every fucker would be there within minutes. Was before smart phones, so people must've been leaving their missus at the shops to contribute.

And Kiko's touched on the stong Villa contingent, which I was strangley proud of, and then good ones all left, JPA turned up, as did that twat who specialised in spine removal.

[niko_cee]

That network game was good.

Sean binning Xabi Alonso after he signed for Liverpool being a particular highlight.

[Magic]

I'll post the review thread in a week or so.

Don't steal my shit you little bitch.

Who would want to read your braindead mutterings?

[Mellberg]

That network game was good.

Sean binning Xabi Alonso after he signed for Liverpool being a particular highlight.

We had an MSN group running alongside and he was genuinely livid :D

[Foe]

Nobody, but writing the review your year thread is my only contribution to this board. :(

That, and starting the original relationship thread to vent about lettuce girl.

[Magic]

Jesus Christ that's not the type of review I do. :face:

[Offshore Toon]

Why do you think it was intentional, James? It really wasn't.

[Giggles]

John Arne - Largely inoffensive. For a poster that posts a shit load I don’t really have much more to say unfortunately. He seems to be active in the mornings when I’m in early to work and dossing drinking coffee so that’s good.

Kikó - Smug twat. Not really though, and seems a nice guy, but definitely wouldn’t be the type I’d voluntarily spend any time with irl as he seems the exact opposite to me. Good poster though and good to have around.

leedsrevolution - Doesn’t post much until he’s mashed drunk and sticks up pictures of his fanny licker dog, so there’s little else to say really.

Lewis - One of the top men about the place. We wouldn’t cross paths on a massive array of subjects but he’s very quick witted and doesn’t seem to give a scaldy bollock about anything.

Magic - A nasty shite but can’t help but like him all the same. The quality has waned recently and he’s turned into a less thought out Adamski but it’s understandable. Hope one day he will look back and lol at this whole period.

Mike - Seems a bit simple but is very enthusiastic about absolutely everything. Less of a LAD than Baz and seems more level but I still can’t help but read every single post of his in the tone of the ‘brilliant’ Paul Whitehouse character from the Fast Show.

Pepe - Peep is a bit too much of a hippy for us to ever see anything the same way but there’s very little about him I could really dislike.

phonics - He’s amazing at wading in about something and being so wrong that it’s a good thing he really doesn’t give a bollix. Always here and always active but a person that always confuses me and I can never piece his background together even after all this time.

Queenslander - Posts rarely, but they’re all good. There’s only really one type of Australian that I can get on board with and he seems that type.

Raoul Duke - A massive big time charlie, though I still don’t really know if a lot of it is a put-on or not. If not then he’s without doubt the type of person I’m normally repelled by irl, though there’s still always something about him that makes him seem sound. Maybe he just has it all the bastard.

Reg - Loves the football, like mad into it, but for someone who posts a load I really know very little about him other than that. Maybe he posts a lot in other threads that I never click on.

Shindig - No idea. The name is always there and I know he posts a lot but I haven’t one fucking clue of anything that he does here.

Spikey M - Spikey da man. I find that me and him tend to agree or align on a fair few things, though he’s much less of a dour sack of shit than I am. I’d like to be more like Spikey.

Spoonsky - Couldn’t like him even if you breastfed him. Always seems really snarky and aloof, like he’s (in his own mind) absolutely owning life and anyone who doesn’t do, or want to do, things his way is just massively wrong. The type of person that needs a few harsh life lessons.

SvN - SvN is good, active in loads of threads I read and doesn’t seem to let anything go to his head too much. Another I’d probably sup a pint of porter with.

Waffdon - Substances.

wullie - King of the one liner. I know fuck all about the man but always notice when he post because it’s usually funny.

Yevrah - Only really turns up now to say how he’s disappointed in a TV series before turning up again after a while to say it wasn’t so bad after all.

[Giggles]

I can't believe I finished one.

[Spikey M]

From the dead list to the blowjob list in less than 12 hours. Xox

[Kikó]

Do you have it in your power to end the group Keeks?

As in close it, not demand some kind of mass suicide. Although you would make quite the Cult leader.

I have the power.

I have the power.

Do it. Do it for the board.

[Pepe]

Of all the people, I wasn't expecting bloody Giggles to do a list. :cool:

[Giggles]

Do it. Do it for the board.

Who are we missing from it that isn't a wankpellet? Yay bring GS back, errr no.

[Spikey M]

Who are we missing from it that isn't a wankpellet? Yay bring GS back, errr no.

Benny? I don’t really know who’s in it.

[Pepe]

Luca is probably the highlight.

[Giggles]

Benny? I don’t really know who’s in it.

Did Chorizo not just become a recluse?

[Lewis]

Facebook tells me to befriend Luca every now and again, and I'm certain his profile picture gets whiter every month. He looks more like Mert than himself now.

[Mike]

I can't believe I finished one.

and it is bloody brilliant!!! :D :cool2:

[Giggles]

and it is bloody brilliant!!! :D :cool2:

:D

[Kikó]

Do it. Do it for the board.

I couldn't. It's been going for about 5 years now. Think of the memories lost.

[Disco]

Do it once you've finished that list.

[Kikó]

I'm thinking tomorrow could be the day.

[Spoonsky]

I imagined you'd like me even less if you had to breastfeed me.

[ItalAussie]

27 pages on Henry vs van Nistelrooy. Actually any big event would see 30 pages by the end of the night. If a London bomb went off the TTH bat sign would go up and every fucker would be there within minutes. Was before smart phones, so people must've been leaving their missus at the shops to contribute.Oh, man. That was the enduring TTH debate for years. You only had to mention the name of one player or the other, and it was on for young and old.

There's a brand new shopping center 10 minutes from where I'm staying. Went for a walk around it a few days back and it was quite pleasant if you can ignore the spitting and shouting. Turned round a corner to be met by a woman holding her child over a rubbish bin letting it have a piss.

I don't even know if I have many lol stories. I've suppressed most of what I've encountered to stop myself having a breakdown.

[Spoonsky]

Miss America yet?

[Disco]

Now that really would be a story.

[7om]

Miss America yet?

Nope, still male.

[Spoonsky]

Where have you moved to exactly?

[Spikey M]

Nope, still male.

:D

[7om]

Where have you moved to exactly?

I'm in Beijing, so it's not too bad. But yeah, I miss America a lot and am already organizing my return for next year. Hopefully Trump doesn't cut work visa numbers before I'm able to apply again.

[Magic]

Nope, still male.

:drool:

Get that VPN ordered up you cunt.

[Lofty]

Whatever happened to BM? I assume he got caught shagging his way through the housewives he was tutoring English in Taiwan.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Locked himself inside a shack and starved to death.

[Shindig]

Whatever happened to BM? I assume he got caught shagging his way through the housewives he was tutoring English in Taiwan.

Was his moped crash part of this board or the old one. I loved that story.

[Ian]

His pictures of food. :sick:

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

Who was the 'chicken and pasta' cunt?

[Ian]

That was him,

Plain pasta and.... was the chicken breast boiled or fried with nothing else? I feel like it must have been boiled because even just frying it in oil you might accidentally end up with some taste.

[randomlegend]

It was pretty pasty whatever he'd done to it. And yeah it was just a chicken breast (sliced I think) on top of some completely plain pasta.

There was another one wasn't there? I want to say chicken breast again with some boiled broccoli.

[Giggles]

I make something very similar, with a few things added, and it's not bad.

[randomlegend]

It's too nondescript to be 'bad'.

[Magic]

Lolton. :cool:

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

It was fried and overcooked.

[Giggles]

You can only overcook chicken on the TV.

[randomlegend]

Christ...

[Jimmy Floyd]

Giggles is kind of right. Nothing worse than chicken being on the squelchy side.

[randomlegend]

I'm not sure how the fact chicken can be undercooked means it can't be overcooked.

[Shindig]

I've done both and they're both horrible.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

Thermapen is what you want.

[randomlegend]

Aye they are great.

[Spikey M]

60 notes for a bent thermometer? I’ll take my chances with Salmonella.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

https://thermapen.co.uk/superfast-thermapen-3/48-superfast-thermapen-3-discounted-colours.html

Totally worth it.

I had a cheap meat thermometer before and didn't realise how crap it was until comparing with one.

[Giggles]

Yeah, no.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

Well of course, I wouldn't expect someone taking inspiration from BM's recipe to agree.

[ScousePig]

Did Jack Torrance ever return?

[Giggles]

Well of course, I wouldn't expect someone taking inspiration from BM's recipe to agree.

You don't need a thermometer to cook fucking chicken.

[Lewis]

Did Jack Torrance ever return?

No coming back from being named the ugliest person on Facebook.

[randomlegend]

You don't need a thermometer to cook fucking chicken.

I don't think it's aimed at people who don't believe chicken can be overcooked.

[Offshore Toon]

Lol I dunno, that's just what I'd filed it under and I can't really remember why.
It was a bit of a weird one. I imagine it'd be a lot better these days.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

You don't need a thermometer to cook fucking chicken.

Well, no shit.

[Mazuuurk]

I love that Jimmy essentially called Lewis a northern could-have-been version of what Dela is.

[Lewis]

I don't think he meant that exactly.

[Kikó]

AD - Decent when he posts which is never so k thx
Adamski - Adam is a good contributor - thanks.
AE - Not sure he even posts anymore. It was probably one of the greatest moments on the board him playing IRL for us all to watch and actually donning it.
Alan Shearer The 2nd - Did he used to post about cars? Don't know.
Alex - Leeds and hip hop. Or just hip hop. Why do the A's suck?
Amigo - Good guy and was a poster worth reading. Probably dead now.
Andrew - Randrew? Not sure what's going on between him and Lewis and what happened on the meet they had but I assume it was some sort of falling out over the importance of milk in modern society.
Andy - He seems happy enough on Facebook. I remember when he nearly killed himself by piling himself with lemsip, paracetamol and booze and his liver collapsed.
Sir Andy Mahowry - For someone who managed to stay mundane for years, the Ukraine camgirl story/saga/-gate was incredible. I think How has come on from the gamer chair - Ronaldo 1-0 to be an invaluable member of this place.
Angelsaint - Boring human.
Baz - His hard is in the right place with this place and he's done a lot to get us from nothing to having our own fully fledged forum. Still, I think there is a case of underhand with a lot of what he does and maybe it's a case of past weirdness that taints my current view.
Bernanke - He's great in a fleeting way. Can try a bit harder and post more.
Bob Sacamano - Nope.
Boydy - What's Boydy doing at the moment? His misery and disillusionment seemingly coincides with his posting improving.
Browning - Minimal opinion - seems ok.
bruhnaldo - The most sensitive soul ever , the term snowflake was invented for him. Not sure how he could vote for Trump considering his liberal, pinko weakness.
Byron - The Group. ByzantineByron is a nice guy but he should post more.
Charlie - His stories in <Insert name of Asian country> were great. I wonder if he's been banged up yet.
Chrissy - Stand up Scotsman? Terrible.
CJay - A nice part of the furniture.
Clunge - Great name, no clue.
Cord - Escalated to the BEST poster for a while then probably gained a life of some sort and left it to Jimmy and Lewis to own this place. Fuck sake man.
Dan - Nope.
Danny - American chinese bloke. I am sorry we never met in JAX at the time.
Dark Soldier - Steve's writing prose is brilliant when he gets going and his diet is sublime. I know he was struggling for ages but it seems like he's on track and I am happy to read it.
Davgooner - Post or gtf
Demerit
dino - I would appreciate that shirt back. Top bloke and another important member if only for his diljeet betting posts.
Disco - Disco is like the incessant ticking hand on a clock that you don't notice until it stops. Funny and is a good poster.
Dquincy - Quince works a decent job and yet was insanely thick at times / shit humoured. I like him though.
elth - Back about 7 years ago me and Elth met up in Munich. He was quieter than the brash, very smart and always right aussie on the forum. Shame he doesn't really post anymore but his life seems to be going well.
five time - Scouse bastard.
Foe - Foe seems to deliciously close to massive success but is such a Mr Bean character that he will end up dead locked inside a fridge. Really nice guy when we met though, helped TTHIRL finish 3rd in the quiz.
Giggles - Nice to see he doesn't actually think I'm that much of a bastard in this thread. I think he's an integral part of this place and his bitter cynicism is basically what TTH is. Keep it up.
Gray Fox - I know him but not enough.
GS - GS doesn't post much on here anymore which is a shame. He was infuriating for me , robo-Tory which I violently disagreed with. In THE GROUP, he's much nicer/calmer.
Hammer - Actually a bit crazy but makes for good stories like the walking from Belgium to Leeds or his constant weird consensual sex group stories. I think he killed Rushie.
Henry - What is it, two threads he posts in now? The book one and running? I suppose he has no one to argue against anymore. Shame.
hfswjyr - He's posted for 7 years and still no opinion. Seems nice.
Ian- I would meet Ian for a beer although a suggestion of peroni would probably lead to derision and he'd end up posting on here talking with giggles aka When Ian met Fandan.
igor_balis - Quite good in a self deprecating way. He's an important part of the new TTH infrastructure.
ItalAussie - Ital is a staple like me. Like me, we're a bit dull and keep coming back for the free biscuits.
Jeet
Jimmy Floyd - One of the key posters. A good chap in real life and his stories from deep in the Korean peninsula are brilliant. He really needs to get out even though it will make him 27% less boring. The cricket posts are fantastic. /
John - Another one who gets this place and is a crucial yang to others ying. Last of the classic Rangers contingent standing - Fandan, Pongo and a few others have all fucked off to let him lead the good fight against Waffle. Do we even have celtic fans here anymore?
John Arne - Very good and I like his different view on the world. Keep posting.
Josh- Nope.
Lee - Start posting and stop wasting time in the group. Lee's actually bloody interesting and he saves it for endless discussions with GS.
leedsrevolution - Another good cog to help this place continue.
Lewis - How many years in a row can you say (I haven't said anything nice about Lewis in ages) he's brilliant and is crucial for this place to even have a chance to continue into it's 4th decade? 15 years is the answer.
Luca - He's in Oz now and working himself to the bone for a consultancy. Incredible savvy and smart and really bloody nice. I've met Luca about 4-5 times and he is as genuine as they come.

Enough. I'll carry on next week.

[Pleb]

What a list :cool:

[Boydy]

Are you saying my posting is shit at the minute?

[Kikó]

Yes.

[Shindig]

I really miss Lee's NHS inside baseball. I feel like if it collapsed overnight, we'd be the first to know.

[Lewis]

It's hard to imagine GS being in your bender gang. He probably hates every second of it really.

'Haha, good one, Andy. :thbup:'

[Jimmy Floyd]

I love that Jimmy essentially called Lewis a northern could-have-been version of what Dela is.

I was saying that a lot of things that determine our lives are outside our control.

[Ian]

I would be a bit snidey about Peroni but not because it's lager or not poncey enough, purely because it's so consistently overpriced.

While I'd be drinking, er, something overpriced but that also tastes like it's been brewed inside a petrol tank.

...there was going to be a point there.

[Shindig]

I only tend to drink Peroni at gigs which probably compounds the price even more.

[igor_balis]

Half pint of peroni for £5 at a cafe the other day. Was alright though because my mate had been such an irritating twat at the party the night before and that morning (he'd gotten into the vodka and was steaming before we arrived, this is like middayish), that when the bill for the 5 of us came to £110 we told him to go inside and pay on his card and we'd sort him out later. Which we haven't and never will. Cunt deserves it.

[igor_balis]

£24 of that bill was the 3 bloody maries he had, one of which he'd demanded from the waitress before we'd even sat down.

[Boydy]

Yes.
Joke's on you, I'm still miserable.

[Magic]

So you're now utterly pointless? Well done you.

[Boydy]

Always have been.

[Disco]

Kiko actually doing a list was the last thing I expected.

[Boydy]

The last thing I expect is Pepe doing one.

[Pepe]

It's hard to imagine GS being in your bender gang. He probably hates every second of it really.

'Haha, good one, Andy. :thbup:'

He went to shit after THE MEET. Since then he thinks he is one of 'the lads.'

[Mazuuurk]

I was saying that a lot of things that determine our lives are outside our control.

Yes but in the extension that meant if Dela would have grown up in Hull, and Betts in London, we might have still had Dela around here a tad bitter about being unable to make an academic career for himself in Britains shittest city or whatever, whereas Betts would have been off a long time ago gallivanting with the Liberals or London and voicing his distaste over this and that very moderately on Twitter.

It's a glorious thought.

[Pepe]

The last thing I expect is Pepe doing one.

But:


I will make a list.

[Boydy]

No you won't.

[Pepe]

It was a tactic to trigger others to make some lists. It worked wonderfully, you must admit.

[niko_cee]

£24 of that bill was the 3 bloody maries he had, one of which he'd demanded from the waitress before we'd even sat down.

£8 for a bloody mary, £5 a half of Peroni? Something's not right there.

[igor_balis]

£8 for a bloody mary, £5 a half of Peroni? Something's not right there.

Yeah god knows, it was a weird place. I think by a massive coincidence bloody mary was the place's "thing". My dickhead drunken mate told us all he was going to buy a bloody mary before we even left the flat, but it was literally the only alcoholic drink actually listed on the menu. God moves in mysterious ways.

[Spoonsky]

I didn't intend to write one, but procrastination from finals has reached a new level. It's too nice but that's what happens with five posters left.

7om - If Jimmy can muster up a thousand-post comedic masterpiece from working with a few Koreans in southwest London, then the least he could do is post more about life in China.

Adamski - Seems unnecessarily angry a lot of the time but at least he posts.

AE - His life seems nice on Facebook, but some inward part of me is still bitter that he never cracked the MLS.

Sir Andy Mahowry - Still prone to the odd shocker or, even worse, terrifying post about 'females', but on the whole he's good.

bruhnaldo - As though the slight American inferiority complex I held when I started posting on TTH age 13 had developed sentience and a life of its own - or had been turned into an allegorical character in the ongoing theatrical production we like to call 'The Third Half.'

Charlie - I wish he still posted, I found him completely enigmatic in an entertaining way. I guess he's settled into domestic life in Taipei.

Cord - I miss his dog more than his posting these days.

dino - One of the posters I'd be mostly like to be friends with IRL, I think.

Giggles - His antipathy towards me seems as strong as ever, but mine towards him has waned almost totally. I actually like him nowadays, and his posting is as valuable to the board as ever. I don't know if something about him changed or something about me.

GS - Not gonna lie, I miss dry politics GS getting stuck in on Brexit.

Ian - He's definitely the most likeable poster on here. I'm almost glad I never met him in Glasgow, though, because I hold a suspicion that in real life he's some 400-pound Mahow-lite. (I know Mahow is lighter than 400 pounds, but you know what I mean.)

igor_balis - Igor's the best, and his life should be an inspiration to all of us.

ItalAussie - Ital's great, but I can't help but feel that this board touches on very few of the things which interest him most. He's a great and accessible writer, so I wish he'd start a Wait But Why-style blog or something so I can see more of his thoughts on MATH and GOD.

Jimmy Floyd and Lewis - The Messi and Ronaldo of TTH (and you know which is which). They're by far the best posters on the board, and the ones who most consistently put in an effort - probably because I think the board means more to them than to anyone else. They're also, in their own way, two of the best writers I know. Although I hope that Jimmy finds a better job, and Lewis finds a job at all, TTH will be a worse place if they ever find better and more deserving uses of their time.

John - Angry John is an old and tired act, at this point, and depends far too heavily on pedantry - but John is also one of the best and most sensible posters remaining, so whatchagonnado.

John Arne - I love John Arne, and his life seems fascinating, even if he's not the Asian with the duck from that photo.

Kikó - Great poster, and has the most insightful views on ManYoo out of anyone on the board.

Magic - I actually care about him, and I'm curious what's happening in his life. I hope someday things start to look up for him (or maybe they already have).

Mert - The sad, lonely, emptiness of his life has given me a good idea of what not to do now that I'm starting my 20s. But politically he stumped us all. It's a good thing I never made that bet about Trump.

mikem - I find his thoughts on America, politically and culturally, really fascinating. Every post is worth reading whether you agree or not, and I wish there were more.

mokbull - His posting style has always been more college meme page than TTH, so I'm glad those pages now exist.

Panda Bear - Messaged me on instagram yesterday. I hope to someday meet him, somewhere in Canada, and try to confirm whether he knows what rust looks like.

Pepe - Not sure he's made a post of more than two sentences in about a year, if not his entire time here. But fuck it, it's Pepe, gotta love him anyway.

phonics - I really enjoy his posting, especially his insights into the UN.

Reg - Yep, still good.

Samadini - :cool:

Shindig - He's good. I've completely lost interest in this now.

Waffdon - My brutha. Did you know that Vim's sister goes to school in Dundee? I wonder if he's BANGED her yet.

Yevrah - Yev's the best, and the board is better the more he posts.

[Magic]

I'm sorry WHAT. That Vim revelation has me shocked to the core.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Go on Waff, get stuck in.

[Spoonsky]

Hm, was it over the line to post that? It was Waff who told me in the first place.

If Mert's sister hadn't got into Duke I think she would have gone to McGill. :rosebud:

[Ian]

Cord - I miss his dog more than his posting these days.

I'm not sure what it means that the dog popped his clogs and Cord started posting less at what must have been roughly the same time.

I'd love to think there was some tragic sitcom / comic strip scenario where Cord was pretending to being doing something important as an excuse to neglect the dog but was actually just browsing this.

[Bartholomert]

Hello. Are people still posting on here enough to warrant a WDYTOE?

Unsure when the last time I checked in was, but I'm in my last-year of law-school and working part-time (well in theory, partners at the firm don't seem to really understand that concept) at a "Big Law" big law firm in DC which will now likely be my full-time job and future home. In many respects I "made it" (almost) professionally. And by that I mean I have absolutely no free-time and my life is pretty much as intense (okay I'll say it, absolutely miserable) as it could possibly be (at least I'm making good money, right guys?). Care-free youth has given way abruptly and irrevocably to adulthood.

In an unexpected development, I could also give two shits about politics / current events these days, just trying to get to the next day keeping it all together (although I don't hate that it seems like I'm getting a nice tax-cut). Regularly cuck at work by making liberal statements so that nobody bothers me, just not worth making waves (unsure if new found maturity and self-restraint or psychological defeat and inherent weakness).

Girlfriend is in medical school in New York and I'm lucky to see her once every three-weeks, with minimal contact in between because we both have horrible schedules (how often are you supposed to communicate with your significant other throughout the day anyways?). Unclear if that will turn out to be in any way sustainable, but I don't think it's getting any better marriage-material wise and she's too non-confrontational / busy to do anything about it, and so it will continue (we've also been 'roughly' together for around 5.5 years, so inertia as well). Still have to navigate through graduating and the bar, but afterwards I'm sure I'll have the time to care about my health / mental well-being / interpersonal relationships...

Maybe I'll post a bit more in the coming few weeks for nostalgia sake as I get some time off from work and school in the coming few weeks. Hope everyone is doing well.

[Bartholomert]

Stop seething and write a list.

[Boydy]

You're off my Christmas card list, Spoon.

[Giggles]

Ah for fuck sake, I thought this can of piss had finally fucked off for good.

[Pen]

I love posts where people who have been away for some time fills us up on their lives. The power of wdytoe.

[Shindig]

"lol, i'm in a long distance relationship and work is hard. Mert, aged 22."

[Kikó]

There's a Sue Townsend book in it.

Well done mert you big twat. Sounds like you're doing dece.

[Waffdon]

Vim’s sister looks too much like him, and is on the obese end of the scales. It would be the greatest achievement in TTH, though.

[SincereTheRebel]

After scanning through the names, I can only comment on a handful of you. A lot of the guys , I just cant say anything about you at all. A lot of the names, are just a complete confusion. Someone sent me some stickers for World Cup 2014 but I cant remember who it was. Pardon me. I have not forgotten. I really dont get into discussions about anything other than sport, music and gaming.

AE - Hopefully, he is still playing football at a high level, instead of trying to link up man on here, fresh off a plane trying to party with London babes and he has a game the next day
Alan Shearer The 2nd - You still drive the BMW?
Alex - Hip-Hop head
Sir Andy Mahowry - Currently hiding in eastern europe somewhere after he was part of a team who scammed me for 200k FIFA coins
Baz - Cool guy. Reached out to me a few times when we have figured out we were been in the same area, but we have yet to cross paths
CJay - Where you the one who lived in a medieval fortress?
Danny - Plays FIFA
Dark Soldier - Represents coventry and an active member on FIFA. Also likes drum and bass
Gray Fox - Does he still as a MGS fan
Henry, ItalAussie, Jimmy Floyd, John, Kikó, Lewis- Still after all this time on here. These guys come across as one of the same. All seem much older and wiser than the rest of you on here. I think ItalAussie was some high ranking docter but he is younger than me. Salute to that man.
Jeet - Aresenal fanatic. I dont remember reading any of his posts for a long time.
John Arne - Lives in saigon?
Luca - The Canadian Chef?
Magic - Had some issues with his wife and child which I do not wish upon any male but I also appreciate what he went through so I dont have too.
Mert - Hopefully, he is no longer dressing like Earl Sinclair from the Dinosaurs
Mike - The sidekick of Baz?
Offshore Toon - A Newcastle supporter who lives in Gibraltar
Pepe - Still racing on his mini-moto?
Smiffy - Should replace Christain Bale in the American Psycho 2 movie
Spoonsky - Young American
SvN - In the trivia thread heavy
Vim - He lives in denmark, but is no longer there?
Waffdon - Supports the orange version of Dundee
Yevrah - Another Fifa man

[Kikó]

I like the Harvey isn't in the group of 6.

[phonics]

Jeet gets a mention and I don't. Disgusting.

I like how he's mixed up DS and Wullie though.

[Baz]

A lot of them are more of a What Do You Know About Everyone. :D

Still a list is a list so respect.

[Magic]

Vim’s sister looks too much like him, and is on the obese end of the scales. It would be the greatest achievement in TTH, though.

:D

Oh my word.

[Bernanke]

I also used to mix up Floyd and Lewis back in the day for some reason. I think they had similar avatars at one point, and both seemed eloquent compared to the rest of you lot.

[Dark Soldier]

I like how he's mixed up DS and Wullie though.

Aye its sweet

You've had a girlfriend for 5.5 years? :cab:

I seem to remember half of your posts being about various women you met.

[randomlegend]

I'm sure he posted that they broke up.

Oh my word.

Get your rebound off her, Sir.

Mert - Hopefully, he is no longer dressing like Earl Sinclair from the Dinosaurs


Amazing :D

As Arsenal’s draw for the European league came out I wondered whatever happened to Mantralux. Probably crying herself to sleep that Theo Walcott never became the next Messi.

[SvN]

https://news.paddypower.com/author/ix-techau/

She's hit the big time.

She's probably fully immersed in that bonkers database she made like Mahow in the fantasy world he builds whenever a 'female' acknowledges him.

As I remember she had Nico Yennaris on par with Dani Alves in that edit, the mad bastard.

[Offshore Toon]

I did consider transferring to Gibraltar when I was at RBS. Everybody over there was so shit at their jobs that it must have a high quality of life.

[QUOTE=Offshore Toon;239487]I did consider transferring to Gibraltar when I was at RBS. Everybody over there was so shit at their jobs that it must have a high quality of life.

Looking at the map now. I didnt at the time as I was sure it was Gibraltar at the times, its Jersey or Guernsey

I always thought you were more daft than obnoxious tbf.

[elth]

For reasons unknown to me people used to call WWW Ian and he used to lose his shit.

Because he was the most boring man in the world and it was the most boring name we could think of. I don't think he ever knew that was the reason though.

She also continously argued that Walcott was just about as good or talented as Messi.

Anyway this bothers me so much; what was her name on here again? And how do you know that's her? Just the style of the writing?

Ix Techau doesn't ring a bell with me.

elth - Back about 7 years ago me and Elth met up in Munich. He was quieter than the brash, very smart and always right aussie on the forum. Shame he doesn't really post anymore but his life seems to be going well.

10 years ago this year I think.

[elth]

Colin is more boring than Ian.

Tbh I don't recall if there were any alternatives considered, Ian just seemed appropriate to whoever brought it up. Probably LDNT.

Her name is in the post previous to the SvN one you've quoted. It's Mantralux. Ix Techau was the uploader name on all her tactics and databases.

Still lol.

[Disco]

Followed by seven years of self flagellation.

[John]

Not as great as Henry going to the pub on Halloween 'with high hopes of expressing himself sexually', but that is still pretty great.

[Mazuuurk]

Ha :D

[Panda Bear]

Is Panda still here, or has he shuffled off?

EDIT: And corduroy, Pen, and Niko*?

EDIT II: And Toby?

EDIT: For the reference, these people could all easily still be posting regularly, and I just haven't been paying attention for a couple of months. If that's the case, I apologise. In that case, take it as an "I'd miss you if you were gone". :D

Had Boydy there originally, but he posted yesterday. I should just check the others.

Cord's still here too. Good to see. Toby's been gone for a while though, and I don't think Niko signed up for this board, unless I've missed him?I came by every three months now, read a bunch of stuff, and wind up not posting unless my name is mentioned. I've never actually been "good" at message boards in that I always feel like my posts are almost entirely disconnected from how I would actually talk in a conversation, so yeah.

Toby's living in Edinburgh and enjoying the single life. Here is a transcription from our most recent conversation:
Toby: i feel like you might enjoy the story of how my brother jonny's friends used to call me "winter jonny" because i mostly only appeared at christmas time and was fat and sad looking

Angeldust is living with his girlfriend in Amsterdam while working at a political thinktank.

ALSO BM GOT MARRIED ON JANUARY 9!!

[Kikó]

Panda :cool:

You wearing shoes yet?

[Magic]

Omg grammar in a PB post.

[Boydy]

Tell Toby to come back.

[ItalAussie]

Angeldust was awesome. Let's send an envoy to get him back.

[Giggles]

Yeah I'd love to see some posts from dust and Toby.

[Samadini]

Do you still have the picture you posted on the old board of a room where all of your furniture appeared to be cardboard boxes?

Got my phone back from repair this evening and tried to find what photos I haven't lost forever. The boxes survived. I remember I genuinely got the fancy snacks in specially for the board awards night :cool:

On my phone so these are potentially massive photos.

So how come Toby fathead has time to regale his Facebook bezzies with stories about 'Winter Jonny' but not us?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

You should market that on Etsy, Sama. You'd make a killing.

[John]

For fuck sake, Sama. The boxes were tragic but I don't remember noticing at the time that you were using the polystyrene packaging off the pizza as a plate for the rest of your dinner. :D

[Spikey M]

What a man :cool:

Could have gotten rep. Don't get that on WhatsApp.

[Giggles]

Why does Tobes hate us :cry:

[Mazuuurk]

Someone probably said that Snow Patrol sucked and he though 'that's it!'.

Or, he got stuck in a door somewhere.

[randomlegend]

I still have a truly terrible attempt I made at a paint representation of something Toby posted in the "Little things in life that fuck you off" thread (I think) to do with some biscuits.

I was too embarrassed to ever post it.

https://i.imgur.com/4vaOtZ5.jpg

Jesus wept :face:

I was normally quite good at paint as well.

[Mazuuurk]

He's angry because there's a mess in the Dildo aisle and shit and piss on the floor?

[randomlegend]

It's the biscuit aisle. They are biscuit packets and chocolate digestives spilling out.

Obviously.

If that doesn't get him back then he's dead.

[Lewis]

The head is nowhere near big enough. No wonder you were embarrassed.

[Disco]

Why is Red Butthead throwing dicks everywhere?

[Magic]

He secretly wanted lots of rep and #mrgreens but that's a fucking disgrace.

[randomlegend]

I would have posted it when I made it if I thought it was going to garner a positive response. It's an abomination.

[Disco]

Magic outs himself as Captain Insecure once again, the nature of the responses doesn't matter as long as it provokes a reaction.

[Magic]

I'm not insecure you knob.

Now excuse me whilst I go through the wife's phone.

[Disco]

Find your own dick pics.

[randomlegend]

He'd take some himself but the zoom's not good enough on his camera.

hahahahahaha

[Adamski]

Find your own dick pics.

:D

[Magic]

Jealous of the best poster so you round up and attack. Great.

[Pleb]

The meltdowns :drool:
