Be funny if...

[Colin C No.3]

If you can’t deal with the ‘fall out’, stop trying to be a smart a**e.

[idler]

I think that the posters on here that can remember Carling and Mad Mick would regard this thread as quite sane.

[BillyStubbsTears]

Oh I[/] can deal with it fine Colin. I'm just genuinely shocked by the responses to a daft, entirely inoffensive initial post.

[drfchound]

Hound.

Let me get this right. You read my post and you actually thought that I reckon it's possible that Man City will make up 25 points on Liverpool in the last 11 games?

Strange, in the light of some of our other interactions. You've frequently started from the position if assuming I'm deliberately deceiving when I'm actually being serious and honest. Then when I say something that is so bizarre only an idiot would say it, you assume I'm being serious.

God help us when we all have to self isolate and there's no non-verbal communication at all.

No BST, you are moving the goalposts with that response.
I was referring to your OP.

I really don't want to go down this rabbit hole. I'll finish off with saying that I find it odd that anyone would read my OP and the title of the thread and conclude that I thought there was a decent chance that Liverpool wouldn't win the title. But obviously, I was wrong in that belief.

[philsky]

Liverpool ended up winning nowt.

It'd be funnier if we went up and Hull came down

BST, Lets make this clear, your post gave no indication of being a humerous one.
FWIIW I read it as though you thought that the season might be abandoned due to the Corona Virus situation.
With that thought in mind, can you understand why I didn’t see that you had intended your OP to be funny.
There were quite a few of us who didn’t see the funny side.

[NickDRFC]

I thought it was quite obviously a joke. A few people clearly did not. Is it really worth this level of discussion either way?

[Bentley Bullet]

I'm aware that BST is capable of looking after himself without the likes of me defending him but I must say I thought it was just a bit of light hearted banter that didn't deserve anything like this sort of criticism.

Let's all lighten up eh?

You clearly can’t deal with your “daft post” otherwise why now come out with statements such as “I really don’t want to go down this rabbit hole” which incidentally you dug for yourself, then we have from you “I’m out.” very quickly followed by “I’ll finish off by saying....”

Ever thought of going into politics?

To paraphrase Pancho Regan “We used to have humour on here, now we get posts like this one”.

And with that (& in the style of the man himself) I’m outa here.

[drfchound]

We still do get lots of humour on here, some of it isn’t funny though. 😉

I thought it was bleeding obvious, given that I posted just after Bournemouth went one up against Liverpool. I'll remember to set the context next time.

[drfchound]

Imagine, how could anyone miss something so obvious.
Of course you could never do something like that.

Which era would you prefer to live in?

[BillyStubbsTears]

Colin

I can deal with anything that anyone wants to chuck at me on here.

What I DON'T want to do, inadvertently, is to so upset someone who had bugger all to do with the thread, that he feels compelled to stick his two pennorth in about my mental state and position relative to my rectum. At 1:30 am on a Sunday.

When it gets to that sort of situation, it's time to back off.

I'm truly bewildered that you felt the need to make that contribution. But I've obviously yanked your cord somewhere along the line. And THAT was what I meant about dropping out. If you want to keep an argument going, fill your boots, but I'll leave you to it if you don't mind.

Fair point. I still don't get that one to be honest! Went right over my head.

Touché then because your attempt at humour wasn’t obvious to plenty of posters besides myself.

[BillyStubbsTears]

Like I said Hound. Point taken.

Still think you were wrong though.

[drfchound]

Lol. Now that was funny...........I think.

[BillyStubbsTears]

That's for you to decide Hound...

[drfchound]

.........I will get back to you then.

This. For what it's worth I found it

Totally agree, sad really.

[Spud]

How's the end of season drinks plans going lads? 🙄🙄🙄

[drfchound]

I would love to meet BST, as long as he doesn’t start banging on about politics. 🤭

[Filo]

There really is some humourless souls on here lately!


Is this the right time to give the “pins” behind the South Stand a mention, not heard anything about them for a while 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

[BillyStubbsTears]

Some chance of that. I even talk about Keir Starmer during the physical act of love with Mrs S-T.

[BillyStubbsTears]

I see Man City lost today.

Can one of the mods please delete this thread? It's looking a bit embarrassing for me now.

[drfchound]

No, leave it live please.
Embarrassment is good for the soul.

[BillyStubbsTears]

Speak for yourself. I've never been exposed to it, so I have zero immunity.

[The Beast]

It’d be funnier if Leeds capitulated and didn’t go up but that won’t happen either
