Reading the thread you would assume we had merged the plots of Blakes 7, Doctor Who and Red Dwarf into one amazing sequel. Can we sell the films rights to it?

For example many visit and do not post a simple hello or good evening, but refer to everyone here as Tithe. Can anyone explain that for me too


A "Tithe" is ten percent. A "Tithe" to the thread is to have 10% of your total post count on The Thread. NOOB!

Good morning!

Look here CB - 'banal drivel' is much too polite a term for this thread. How about 'Disjecta membra'?

Cheating in law school, cheating at layering for a short while, and then into politics. They are, after all, to important to follow the rules for the common people.

??? Layering? You mean stacking like cordwood or like this gal?

I think that he forgot the "W" in "lawyering" after all, he is a Swede.

The Swedes invented the delicious delicacy, surstromming.

Is surstromming what stognards eat?

Philadelphia, PA and surrounds.

CB is apparently basing his opinion on experiences during a stay in the Philadelphia area some time ago. What he failed to realize is that the residents were putting him on, in a kind of Potemkin Village.

Surstromming is Baltic herring that rots - I mean, ferments - in the can. The can is supposed to bulge.

British engineering is about 70 years behind American.
