#7) someone drove a JCB through the wall?

It seems horribly quake biased, even if it did start out as the boads for quake.ie/ign.ie

It doesn't give the newer members a chance - unless they spend ages trawling through old posts that might not be there at all.

Well the boards were at one time only Quake related. As for the new people apart from looking at old posts they can also copy answers here.

What the axe was made of was irrelevant, it was the fact that a grown man was carrying around a toy, a nerd fantasy toy none the less....i was, and still am highly entertained by it, it seems right that hobbes, roleplayer by hobby, with 3848 posts to his name, should carry such an item.....it corresponded well with my mental image of him

However, the large majority of you will not understand the above as it is you who i find so highly amusing.....your ability to be amused for example, by such simplistic variations of words (l33t) and your extravagent need to express your emotions within a text by use of smiley faces, perhaps to make this web of fantasy seem more realistic in your lonely lives? It fascinates, and indeed, sickens me to see these adults sitting happily and giggling wide eyed through their glasses into a computer screen at some intellectually barren comment written by an intellectually barren person. As these people, who i refer to as nerds in conversation, take on a human form, with mouth, nose, eyes and legs the same as me, yet have such a differant perspective on humour and entertainment to me, I question whether i was blessed with a better upbringing than these people? or just born with a superiour intellect?

Damo's just a little spoilt brat.

Ignore him or just delete his posts.

damo · 12-12-2000 06:35PM
