View Full Version : Whet teh feck is going on around here?

I must have missed something astronomical around here lately. There's talk of members being banned, members leaving, even sanctions against cake meetings - i mean - what the hell is going on? You know you're definitely NOT in the in crowd when the shizzle hits the fizzle and you're clueless as to whats going dizzle.
All I can surmise (nice word...) is that the weather is cold/wet/sludgey at the moment, so people aren't getting to ride as much, and thus end up hanging around on here talking random drivel. Now, some of the random drivel is quite comical and harmless. I must have switched off my controversy radar because, not one post on here has outraged me to the point of being banned or leaving. If I really strongly disagree with something or someone p1sses me right off, I just click off the post and think "I've got better stuff to be doing right now"...
I've yet to meet a complete nobber from these forums - everyone I've met on each & every one of the rideouts has been so helpful, friendly and cheerful in real life that I find it hard to understand all these e-wars, 15 page arguments and daft little digs. Can we all just get along?
If not, you can all just **** off.
Thanks for reading, Paul w :)
disclaimer: that last comment telling you all to **** off is meant to sound a bit sarcastic and/or carry ironic overtones. Unfortunately, due to the way the internet works, you may not be able to see my facial expression or hear my tone of voice when I type things. Do not take anything I say seriously, or I might actually tell you to **** off, and then we'll all be in a world of confusion...

That would be the Cakeman of the board

This is true, unanimous vote!
On a serious note, lest just remember that this forum is run on the good will of certian forum members and COULD disapear at any time, then that means we'll ALL have to do some bloody work, and i for one (even though i am a mod) dont want to see that. So, therefore if it takes throwing members off the site for misbehaving (Well, not thrown off the site) then thats thier porogative. So stop whinging and ignore it. They'll be back soon enough. I bet Cuffy is sitting in the corner of a room shaking violently with a case of the DT's :)
Anyway, now back to the serious task of derailing this thread into something that gets locked or merged with the megathread.

I have question about cake.....
so there I was stood in the bakers today it was full of cake and I mean full.
I saw some rum truffles and though now if I ate one of those, how much liqiuor would it contain, casue if I bough one there is no way I'm waiting till I get home to eat the dam thing? So I can eat one at work and not be:drunken: So can I?
I'm off to find cookies now, I bought 2 packs yesterday:smt041

I agree with Fizz, most of this cake business was simply brought about in the first place to derail threads from recent events, it works a treat! A nice, moist, icing-covered, jam and cream filled treat ;)
and have you not thought that some of us, might be getting a little tired of the same old subjects i.e recent events being brought up all the time...
yup, i relise that, and agree, but it seems every other thread is derailed into crap about cake, so you start reading a thread and getting some intrsting points then some idiot posts a picture of cake WTF?
i would'nt mind so much but i dont like cake;)
no

Indeed.
I'm going to lock this now, perhaps we can all work to getting this place back to normal ?
Or what passes for normal on here anyway...
