    The touch/mobile site for Boards isn't working, so now I have to use desktop mode and squint my eyes trying to read threads. I know I can zoom in, but it doesn't work very well in portrait mode, constantly having to scan the posts with my finger to even read anything.

    It's more hassle than it should be.

    The whole boards situation is gone completely to shîte.
    All started with cloudflare a couple of years back and has never been consistently good since.

    TA that this thread is morphing into consumer issues thread :p
    But I digress, The Batcave tas me. How did Bruce Wayne get all that heavy machinery and computers etc into the batcave and get it all set up on his own? You would need a team of workmen with a crane for just the batmobile's lazy susan for a start.
    Who did his wiring for him? He would need a whole crew of sparks. Does Gotham Electric not think it is weird that he is using huge amounts of energy?

    Who maintains and updates all his machinery, bat computer and electrics and the batmobile, batcopter etc?
    Who installed the secret bookcase door and fireman's poles to slide into the batcave? Sure batman would be out all night fighting crime and sleeping all day, when would he get time to do all that?

    Auld Alfred is kept busy cleaning, cooking and maintaining a massive mansion single handed so he would be no help there, and Aunt Harriet hasn't a clue what is going on as Bruce keeps her in the dark.

    Tradesmen like to talk about interesting jobs they have done, and installing a whopping great lazy susan or supercomputer in a huge cave in the middle of nowhere would certainly class as interesting.

    He has all of them committed to Arkham.

    Another Batman ta, he has virtually unlimited funds so why doesn't he invest it in opening Foroige clubs, youth sports clubs, after school and breakfast clubs for youngsters in Gotham and things like that to help nip crime in the bud, sort of dig it out root and branch before it gets started, instead of just going out every night and punching criminals in the face?

    People who put L or N plates in the wrong place on their car is a bugbear of mine. Also when they put them on the outside so they get weathered and the red L or N vanishes and they are driving around with a blank square :mad:


    Well, this morning I saw a real hum-dinger: a saloon with the front L plate flat on the bonnet and the back one flat on the boot making them invisible to other drivers :confused:
    If you are too stupid to put them up right then you are too stupid to be in control of a vehicle.

    Not awesome, dude.

    A few people at work have the awful bad habit of staring.
    At best it's bad manners, at worst its a bit aggro.

    One lad is staring at me like I'm his long lost Dad.

    Must be because of Your Face. :pac:

    TA checking my bank account today..what the fuuck, how the fuuck...


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,346 ✭✭✭✭Tauriel


    My TA is how unfit that I am.

    Did my first spinning class today and my legs are gone to jelly. It took some amount of effort on my part to dismount the bike, do the warm down exercises and walk to the car without my legs collapsing from under me.

    Another TA is the thought of the world of pain that I'll be in tomorrow :eek: :(

    Ah stop, I have another class during the week and I don't know how I'll manage to do it. All I want to do is to curl up in the fetal position and feel sorry for myself but that's not going to happen considering I can barely take my shoes and socks off :o:D

    Sorry to carp on, but I have another Batman ta (last one I swear).
    How hard would it be for people Gothamites to work out his idendity.


    -He can't have a gf, wife or kids because he's out all night every night. He doesn't work a steady job for the same reason.

    - He must be seriously loaded to afford all the gadgets and gizmos, batmobile, batcopter etc.
    - Vigilantes have usually been the victims of crime.
    - Most likely a loner.


    Think it over, Bruce Wayne is Gotham City's richest bachelor and weren't his parents gunned down in font of him as a child? Now that you mention it he is a notorious loner who is rarely seen in public. Height and body type are a match.

    The dogs in the street could work it out.

    But you see, we only know that Batman works in Gotham, not that he lives there. Gotham is supposed to be New York (ish), how many men would match his build? Also, nobody said Batman pays for his own gadgets, maybe there's someone sponsoring him.

    Not so easy now, is it? ;)
