I actually thought it was the one about cockslapping someone with a dead hermaphrodite.

Which one was that?

I think a good feature on this forum would be to have an Urban Dictionary Word of the Day.

Ah, I was close.

mungslap

By far the worst possible form of ownage, a mungslap is essentially undefined. It is to be used only in cases of extreme ownage and if need be, should be considered as being cockslaped by a recently deceased and rotting hermaphrodite.

We need a forum gold section more urgently than that.

Not enough gold. Mostly squabbles, bitching, WUM-ming and Smerky asking how to use one of the features that even the most cabbaged baby could work out.

See, the forum gold section wouldn't need to be too big. It would contain those little nuggets of forum history that have transcended the otherwise bland offerings.

You know it makes sense.

It's the English singer Cheryl Cole/Tweedy isn't it? From Girls Aloud.... though she can't sing for sh!t

Married to Cashley Cole of Chelski fame....

Thanks JKL. Who cares how she sings?

Shes actually not from London Furry.

I can use the features! If you're implying about the time I didn't know where "STATISTICS" was, then yes. That was amateur hour.

skully is of course the high priest of nerddom when it comes to Forum features - esp. the notify of topics function

Skullys been quiet tonight. His internet connection must be down...

either that or he has got locked in tac's mum's basement (again).

I love skully

Tac and The Austrian working in harmony eh?

Be careful saying that out loud, flirty lady eowyn will have you.

I hate you guys (except Dem).

Being transferred (closer to home - huzzah) effective Monday so am snowed under winding up things at my current location.

Back later tonight.

Go on tell me there aren't any young girls reading the forum....

Sorry Angie I see nothing wrong with mine. Megan McKenzie is a very well known model and her image is freely available over the net.

Personally I think young girls are more likely to see her in the gossip columns and fashion sites than they are on a cricket forum.

I have a rellie who treats young women with eating disorders and the rellie is convinced the post modernist media fascination with body image has damaged a generation of kids...My rellie would like to innoculate youngsters with solid doses of feminism..

I agree with her

Taipan, there was nothing wrong with Zim's picture in my view. In fact in the whole provocative pictures debarcle, your pose it a lot more "come and get me" and sexually obvious. If you really can't see the hypocrisy in what's been done then so be it.

Horrie, your point will be lost on the porky, balding, middle aged, misogynists on here.

There was nothing wrong with it in my view either. In fact I said so, albeit in a joking manner. Actually I don't think mine is particularly sexually provacative either. The hypocrisy? I never said Zim's should be removed so don't hang that label on me.

No his point was not wasted on me. I am fully aware of the dangers of anorexia. Personally I think it as stupid as women 200 years ago, hlaf starving themselves to death and then being laced into a corset and stays to achieve a 14 inch waist.

I'll be honest, Zimi's av didn't bother me much, but the fact that the sig is a moving image means it more naturally attracts the eye. And it is dodgy.

Oh, and ban India.

[eowyn]Horrie, your point will be lost on the porky, balding, middle aged, misogynists on here.[eowyn]

nothing wrong with being a bit porky, balding or middle aged (tho I am thin, hirsute but ancient)..I know a few middle aged blokes (not forummers) who have become bizarrely body conscious....this has led them to becoming lycra clad cyclopaths with new rugs sewn into their scones...really weird

mysogeny and misanthropy are dire conditions.

I didn't call you a hypocrite. I said, can't you that removing one and not all was hypocrisy.

200 years ago the only thing most women had control over was their 'image'. That's one of the main reasons that girls and woman suffer with anorexia today, it's a way having control over something when they feel like they can't control other things. Nothing much changes.
