hilarious - applies to malta too

[rodent]

Fek me Rodent, i gave up reading your hundreds of quotes, it was just a laugh... it must have taken you ages to do all that!

Copy and paste - control-c and control-v - takes seconds. And I drive a keyboard for a living, so typing is not a big deal

I knew it was a fake the moment i read it, as Ky... Lumiya says, it's done the rounds many times before but so what? Take a pill fella...

Well, I think I explained above I didn't mean it to seem like I has having a go, and I've apologised for that, and as for things being "fake" - well, they wind me up

I like to find the truth about things. Myths, stories, urban legends especially. It's a hobby. I don't know why, I think it's because there are so many fantastic true stories and events in the world that it seems daft to let fake stuff slide.

So when I see things like the above, or people mindless parroting rubbish about the EU banning bendy bananas [1] or "the government" banning nursery rhymes [2] or the old favourite about councils replacing Christmas with "Winterval" [3] or the one about kids having to wear goggles to play conkers [4] I just get a bit of an urge to pontificate.

But, like you said, you don't have to read my posts, either, so no harm done, eh?

Hey Rodent, that`s perfectly ok - all sorted


"Likewise - that would be nice I don't know much about Malta apart from winning the George Cross and "Faith, Hope and Charity", so you could tell me all about it."

you know, that statement got me thinking....i would be perfectly willing to take a group of mad bikers round for a couple of days here...could even show you a couple of easy trails (my trails are all easy)...

Working in IT can give one a particular dislike of this typical email circulated drivel. It's frequently the case that, at first viewing in 1996, it was mildly amusing. By the time you've received the latest incarnation along with the 50+ copies you've had in the meantime each including your email address in the "To" field along with 250 other unconnected people, it really loses its appeal.

By the time you factor in all the "Worst virus ever and even Microsoft haven't got a fix" type emails that people seem to think you need to be informed of due to working "in IT", the last thing you want is for this regurgitated hilarious nonsense to invade your leisure time.

and as for things being "fake" - well, they wind me up

If you find one of these 'gems' in chatter by mistake, and this sort of thing annoys you, just don't read it.

No joke is universal in its appeal

So, the place for this is in the "Jokes" section where the borderline OCD IT Geeks don't go.

Consider yourselves both chastised appropriately
