FTFY!

Oh c'mon, be fair. If he hadn't married her, thus exposing just how nuts she is, we'd probably all still be feeling sympathy for Heather Mills. No only that, but I'd have never tasted cardboard-flavoured oddly textured meat-free "snozziges" if it wasn't for him marrying his first wife.
Can't wait to see how Nancy Shevell finds a way to make UK life just that little bit more rubbish.

I can't say my opinion of Heather Mills has figured very highly on my 'what's important in my life' list.

Good point, I have fixed it even further.

One could argue that the fingers on his right hand are more important as those are the ones moving on the fret board...

Haven't read The Dandy in forever. I still have all my British comics from a few decades ago.

My 10 year old nephew is a big Dandy and Beano fan - all of the family have instructions to buy up any old copies/annuals they see at jumble and car boot sales - he thinks that the older ones are much better than the current versions, and I have to agree with him.

Well, I haven't seen any "new" ones from the past 20 years. I grew up reading all those mags in Nigeria and stopped when I moved to the USA. It will be missed. So which of these still exist: Beano, Buster, Whizzer & Chips, Whoopee & Wow, and any other mags that I may have missed?
|
|
|
|

|
Of those, I think just the Beano still exists[^]. I also used to read The Topper and The Beezer
Several of the others amalgamated or went bust many years ago

I remember The Beezer. The Topper eludes me, but I did try buying everything, so I may have read it. That's too bad. They were all entertaining comics.

Also clicking 1 or 5 was much easier than explaining what you think. And a unibomb really sticks it to the guy.

I know. It's terrible how we're forced to support opinions with reasoned, intelligent and coherent debate, rather than anonymously nuking someone's account because they happened to say something that we know we didn't agree with, but weren't quite sure what argument to come up with to counter it; but whatever the argument was, it would be a killer one.

While I don't miss them in the more social forums I think they are valid in the support forums.

You are a demagogue and a crook, promising the people to have a voice when in fact your ownly interest is hoarding more reputaiton, to increase the cap between you and the majority, so you can look down on them, outvote them and use it to claim a perceived superiority over the majority. Down with you! Down I say!

Of course - I meant "democracy for ME"

How do you think I feel. I nuked my old account, started this new account and then got hammered by Reports. So now I am underwater and can't even report spammers.
I didn't fully think it through.
