It's not 'Send', it's the 'Culture Cup', stupid.

Is this the thread split? I can never keep track. It's a sh*t one if it is.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Wed Apr 11, 2018 2:18 pm

I hope you all received my words in your inbox holes.

by **Galted** Wed Apr 11, 2018 2:59 pm

That would be a worthy thread opener.

by **rIck_dAgless** Wed Apr 11, 2018 4:31 pm

Shoite thread split, flipper should use his admin super powers to make his one the split...

by **JuliusHMarx** Wed Apr 11, 2018 9:52 pm

I reckon the next thread split could be on my birthday.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Wed Apr 11, 2018 9:52 pm

Mine is Friday. I’m hoping yours is too and you’re my twin brother.

by **JuliusHMarx** Wed Apr 11, 2018 10:29 pm

You reckon the next thread split could be in 2 days?

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Wed Apr 11, 2018 10:33 pm

If we keep chatting away like schoolgirls then we have a chance.

by **JuliusHMarx** Wed Apr 11, 2018 11:18 pm

Harry is so cool. I want to wear his ring.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Thu Apr 12, 2018 12:04 am

If that’s where the girls in your school went then we had very different educations.

by **rIck_dAgless** Thu Apr 12, 2018 8:12 am

Morning, all.

by **Galted** Thu Apr 12, 2018 9:10 am

A Dagless 'morning, all' should never be allowed to michaels a thread.

by **rIck_dAgless** Thu Apr 12, 2018 9:11 am

Cheers, Galts, I always know you have my back.

You put your picks in?

by **Galted** Thu Apr 12, 2018 9:40 am

I did, only need one as I'm in last.

by **rIck_dAgless** Thu Apr 12, 2018 11:12 am

I have 3 of the more memorable ones, with Drumming Gorilla missing out.

by **Pal Joey** Thu Apr 12, 2018 12:48 pm

Wow... just sent Flipper my "pick(s)" asking for an ad with a gorilla in it.

I actually haven't seen a UK ad for quite some time so I wouldn't have a clue.
I'm open for any recommendations otherwise I'm sticking with an ad with either a bear (polar or grizzly), gorilla, squirrel or hamster in it.
That should cover all bases.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Thu Apr 12, 2018 1:14 pm

Australian adverts are fantastic. Especially as they show local adverts on national channels, I’ve seen some brilliant shop owners staring awkwardly into cameras.

by **Pal Joey** Thu Apr 12, 2018 1:19 pm

Some good ones, yes... but I don't think they would be recognised and/or poll well in your comp.

by **rIck_dAgless** Fri Apr 13, 2018 7:32 am

Morning, notches.

Just supply an appropriate link TLD, educate us in your antipodean ways!

by **Pal Joey** Fri Apr 13, 2018 8:27 am

Morning Rick, where to start? Maybe some of the beer ads. One even features a trebuchet.

Happy Birthday Jules... you old c*nt.

by **JuliusHMarx** Fri Apr 13, 2018 7:19 pm

It's not my birthday, it's Flipper's. He's 72 in dolphin years.

by **Pal Joey** Fri Apr 13, 2018 11:47 pm

Sorry about that. Friday 13 April is always a bit awkward for well wishing.

by **rIck_dAgless** Mon Apr 16, 2018 7:05 am

Now then, how are we all?

by **Galted** Mon Apr 16, 2018 7:47 am

I am super, thanks (the adjective, not the poster).

Hope you are too.

by **rIck_dAgless** Mon Apr 16, 2018 7:52 am

I too am super (the adjective, not the poster).

Thanks for asking.

Looking forward to another thrilling instalment of CC v.3

by **Galted** Mon Apr 16, 2018 9:18 am

Me too, has Flipper given any indication as to what month it's going to be released?

by **Pal Joey** Mon Apr 16, 2018 9:33 am

Before July I would think.

Morning to you both.

by **Galted** Mon Apr 16, 2018 10:03 am

Morning/afternoon/evening, LD. Has a post-games melancholy set in or are you all too busy showing off your gold medals?

by **Pal Joey** Mon Apr 16, 2018 10:20 am

I have had some interest in Games gone by but when our team took 20 minutes to enter the stadium in the opening ceremony and when we cleaned up most of the bowling gold medals... I sort of took a few steps back from it all. A heck of a lot of gloating here...it's sickening really.

The poor Scottish bloke who ran out of petrol in the marathon was the last straw for me. Our guy just ran by... poor sportsmanship even though he has run 200km every week for the last 10 years or more. "Friendly Games"? My arse!

Did you watch some of it?

palindrome alert.... whooop whooop boing!

by **Galted** Mon Apr 16, 2018 10:45 am

Watched a bit. Don't blame the runner for not stopping - collapsing's what you expect from Scots when they
a - exercise
b - go out in the sun

by **JuliusHMarx** Mon Apr 16, 2018 6:38 pm

TLD - one word - Netball*

*Not action netball

by **Pal Joey** Mon Apr 16, 2018 9:39 pm

Jules - two words - much needed*

*as in good for the game

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue Apr 17, 2018 9:10 am

Word to your bad selves.

by **Galted** Tue Apr 17, 2018 9:41 am

Word.

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue Apr 17, 2018 9:53 am

I used to think that programme was good, but by Jove, it has not aged well.

by **Pal Joey** Tue Apr 17, 2018 9:57 am

What are words for... when no-one listens... it's no use talking at all...

Yeah Rick, it must be over 20 years old now. That song over 30?

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue Apr 17, 2018 10:01 am

And it looks and feels every bit when you see it, the late 80's early 90's were nuts...

by **Pal Joey** Tue Apr 17, 2018 10:03 am

The paper clip thing used to annoy me until I learned how to switch it off.

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue Apr 17, 2018 10:07 am

I think we are talking about very different things...

I am talking about a late night British show, rather than the actual .docx

by **Pal Joey** Tue Apr 17, 2018 10:11 am

Right. I'd just left the country when it came out.

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue Apr 17, 2018 10:19 am

It could well make you do that to be fair...

Though on your point, Word is the ginger step son of Office apps.

by **Pal Joey** Tue Apr 17, 2018 10:35 am

Totally.

On your point: so many programmes from the early 90s look so awkward now. Here we had some quite popular comedy shows... thought they were so cutting edge back then... but now they hurt my eyes and ears when I see them replayed.

Same with sport. The 80s looks like 70s, 90s like the 80s... even early 2000s looks like early 90s sometimes... I could have sworn they didn't look so daggy* at the time. Now it's like they are wearing skin suits.

As time goes by it seems clothing/hair styles date more quickly... as does the quality of the film/video tape compared to digital quality.

*as in loose fitting gear with oversized logos.

by **Galted** Tue Apr 17, 2018 10:59 am

The 2010 version of MS Word is brilliant. It's my favourite word-related entity, ahead of swearwords, Word Up by Cameo and Words by FR David. The only sh*t Office app is Powerpoint.

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue Apr 17, 2018 11:12 am

PowerPoint can indeed feck off, if anyone uses any special effects in it, I immediately get annoyed...

5-6 Bullet points on a chosen corporate background, with a title sheet, and 1 slide with "Any Questions" and that is it.

It is my least favourite point to sit through, apart from the one my primary school teacher used on my sternum.

by **Galted** Tue Apr 17, 2018 11:17 am

I have to compile one monthly, I always feel like I'm back at nursery school when using it.

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue Apr 17, 2018 11:19 am

Used in the right way it is fine, used with starwipes it is Satan's phallus

by **superflyweight** Tue Apr 17, 2018 12:26 pm

I see they're debating about feminism on the rugby boards. I didn't have the heart to read past the first couple of posts.

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue Apr 17, 2018 12:37 pm

On which thread are the ham fisted sh1tgibbons debating?

by **Galted** Tue Apr 17, 2018 12:38 pm

I saw a few posts, written with the same pomposity as always.

The people who took the p*ss out of Eddie Jones have been charged, cue the normal drivel about 'they must be football fans because rugby fans are majestic and noble'.

by **Galted** Tue Apr 17, 2018 12:40 pm
