Look - fellow Spoffers - it really isn't that I have any real objection to this 'Acronym' thread, but, to be truthful, it grated my nerves from day one.

I'll say why - Nobody can follow it. It isn't funny. Whilst respecting the right of people to participate in absolute drivel, I really have to ask why anyone would ever want to?

None of it makes any kind of sense - admittedly, one of the two or three contributors occasionally tries to keep on topic, but the rest is just meaningless jabber, punctuated by hyphenated and made up words when the contributor can't think of a word to fit.

It also frequently bears no relation whatsoever to what's gone before. And it usually refers to shit, sex, or x-rays.

Or Yesterday - or some such crap.

It isn't about trying to dictate things to people - that's the last thing I, personally would ever want to do - and I'm not doing that. I'm giving an opinion.

It's the publicly available viewpoint of the forum - and you can tell how popular it is by how many people use it. Three.

It's been frustrating over time because when any kind of meaningful discourse started - Anagrams - Or Acronyms.

Almost a thousand pages of absolutely witless and confused bollocks.

Chess moves are infinitely more entertaining IMHO

LOL

It's bollocks, Skoob, utter bollocks. Because it's constantly added to it's what casual visitors see when they pop in, because they can only see the General Discussion. Great advert, I don't think. For all the reasons you say, I don't get its attraction either.

hahahahahahahahaha I never thought I'd say this, but thank you. I needed a laugh.

On a more serious note, I tried it once I think and was the second one to do the same one cause someone was doing it while I was doing it and it became so confusing I never did it again. (Talking about acronyms right?)

CJ, I love the cryptic challenge, that's all. You and the others have made your point about the longest lasting thread here and personally, I really don't care. I enjoy the thread as others do and everybody here has that right, to enjoy it if they wish. And nobody has the right to dictate to others what they can and cannot do. You guys think it stinks, others like it, it's just a matter of opinion.

Fundamental Muslims worshipped Bin laden; The US despised him; again, just a matter of opinion.

If I was living in an Orwellian Society, I'd also want to shag that horny thing with the huge black, hairy pussy; I would also make it my right (or left).

Another thing..

That acronymic troublemaker they call Quint..

Here's his mugshot.

Memorise it.

Only we'd rather not blow up Quint. On account of the bucketfuls of creative juice he's poured into that swamp of a General Discussion section..

Credit where credit's due..

Woods is another matter..

The Icelandic Jury, having no views and being bereft of axes that are in need of being ground, has stated its policy elsewhere.

Other than that, we have nothing to say on the matter.

PS here in Iceland it is a busy time, and we do not have the time or energies to expend upon foolish and futile internecine arguments.

Further than this, we will not travel.

Hello Fergus.

Been nice knowing you...but you're doomed...like the dreaded Fred.

The SAS (Splatter Acronym Subscribers) are en croute as we speak.

The dark side don't stand a cat in hells chance...

I rarely mat these days.

I understand people's reservations about the acronym thread, and Skoob's comments about the 'randomness' of entries is perfectly valid. I usually try to relate my entry to the entry before mine, although it's not always possible.

I guess if you don't like the thread, you can just ignore it. That's not said with a pout; I'm just sayin'...

They do actually sound like a Dads Army


BTW: mine do relate, always even if they're nonsense

Here in Iceland things are definitely darker than they were. This is the True Darkness, the Cloud of Unknowing.

Let the running dogs of gobshittery howl at their paper moons.

Let the acronyms, like Icelandic runes, bring the true wisdom of emptiness to those who have eyes to see.
