Fabulous....

Makes my day to read something random from some bloke I have never met. Even if I disagree, it makes me think of others opinions and viewpoints on stuff I would not normally think about.....or care about.

"to the power awesome"....or some sh1te he spouts on about :-) :-)

Without DDD, this forum would be about bikes and stuff, and who the f*ck would want to read that!?!

    Love 'em, despite often containing complete nonsense. Perhaps that's why I love 'em...

    Do you mean regular, or frequent?

    I don't want to give DDD ideas, but I reckon you'd not be happy if, to appease you, he started threads more often, but at less predictable intervals... :wink:

    We got one of those plugs that sends a high pitch signal to keep them at bay, haven't seen anything since.

    Edit: Yeah, I like them. He does seem to attract some snipey nastiness, but that is what you get for sticking your neck out on the net I suppose.

    So your advice to him is when you're thinking of posting, don't. Wait a bit. Still thinking? Wait some more. :twisted:

    I like them, complete bollocks as they usually are, I especially liked the story about the mouse that kicked him out of his house, shredded his comics, slept with his missus and stole the Power Awesome.

    Every aspect of the mouse story was true.

    I still feel uncomfortable thinking about it. I once used the vacuum cleaner to get ride of a bee.

    Well, it was in the bath so I put a bucket over it and the argos catelogue on top of the bucket, turned the tap on and walked away. Thinking "DDD 1, Bee 0". The Bee was massive I might add.

    The next thing I heard was the Argos falling into the bath, so I went and checked and there was the Argos in the water, the bucket on its side and the bee swimming in the water. So I thought "F*ck this" got my hoover and sucked it up*. I did the same with a moth that was a little too big for me armed with a shoe to take on...

    *I was outside the bathroom and reached for the bee with the extendable attachment... Like hell I was going in there.

    oh dear, the only time I got a bit pissy with an insect was in France when a plane sized hornet was trying to get into the small house we were staying in. .

    wrapped a towel round my hand smacked it through the open window and closed it quick smart

    To get rid of bees you should play Alice Cooper at a loud volume. Argos catalogues just enrage them.

    I still think after Mousegate, DDD needs to MTFU! I find something slightly worrying in a man who is afraid of mice :roll:

    His threads amuse me however :)

  • He makes me laugh. I've only met him once and he was on CS3 fixing a puncture with his bike upside down. Anyone that turns their bike upside down to fix a puncture makes me laugh!
  • I like some of his threads, some of them I dont.

    Some of his comments are good, some nonsense. But he does put plenty of effort in and stands up when he thinks somethings is wrong or needs challenging - so jolly good show and all that.

    But I have a couple of questions how in the name of buddha or whoever

    1) Wants to Ride a bee.
    2) Needs a Vacuum cleaner to help them do it.

    If you want to shag a bee thats fine but try dinner first.
