The Shotgun Wedding

I bet this is what AF does in real life, has a couple of Shandys and starts abusing the locals, wife sitting mortified beside him, and then thinks he's being bullied out of his new home by the locals when they tell him to piss off! 75284[/snapback] Just having a bit of banter tbh

Can't afford to move away. FACT! 75277[/snapback] What is this obsession with me being poor? I'll go when I want to go...in the mean time I shall enjoy the scenery

Nope. 75279[/snapback] Then stop posting in my thread you fucking moron

The Penny Forum

Look at you all joining in, ready to post. You have to admit I liven this fucking place up.

Flounce! 75259[/snapback] I'm serious, I can take it but it feels different when you're just chipping in as opposed to the one getting the flak. 75265[/snapback] But if you look back, and as SLP has been trying to explain, everyone on the board gets stick; some people just react differently. 75268[/snapback] Stick I can handle, 20 boring cunts saying the same stuff they did 6 months ago is boring.

We've been through this before.... You seem hell bent on portraying Newcastle as the world's friendliest place but your attitude towards me says more than any protestations on your part. I accept some people think I'm a cunt, I think some people are cunts and God forbid, some people think you're cunts. That's life, it just seems more prevalent here and believe me I've lived in a lot of different places. Just my anecdotal experiences you understand, but none the less true for me. I wish also you'd realise that a group of people joining in against ONE person IS bullying and it might be interesting for you all to look at that fact.

There is animosity about house prices...but if you have a different accent, people aren't necessarily hostile because you are more likely to be a holiday maker.

I didn't say it was. They just don't have a heart attack if you have a different accent. 75210[/snapback] Cornwall is very poor in general with high unemployment and there is loads of animosity towards people from London in particular who have bought holiday/weekend homes and have priced locals out of the market. 75213[/snapback] Er...I lived there, thanks for telling me all about the place! It's nowhere near as bad as up here. Seriously, I've lived here for 3 years and Cornwall for 24. I do know what I'm talking about. 75217[/snapback] Isn't Cornwall the poorest county in England? 75227[/snapback] Yes, it is...

I hadn't been here for ages and yesterday I started a thread about players wages. Go back and see who started being a cunt first. I don't doubt I wind people up here, but there's not a lot I can do about that. I happen to earn more than my wife and every penny comes from music, in fact I earn an average wage from doing what I want. That's taken a lot of effort. If and when I do move to France, I'll still come on here to wind you all up. 75206[/snapback] You suggested a wage cap on players didn't you? Well done mate, that'll work. 75209[/snapback] There already is to an extent in the sense that the pot isn't bottomless. The difference was that the fans would decide the wages rather than the gullible chairmen. Hardly rocket science. 75211[/snapback] It wouldn't work, in my opinion like. 75215[/snapback] It would never get the chance either way, but it would: a: Give players a better incentive to please the fans b: Put an end to cunts like Marcelino c: Make the fans feel re-connected to the team Apart from that, I agree, it's a shite idea.

Do you have posters of or up in your little wankpit 75169[/snapback] tbh. 75178[/snapback] Surely you could have come up with something more imaginative than A PICTURE OF THE BLOKE YOU'VE BEEN CALLING ME FOR AGES.... Doh! You're an accountant, imagination was never your strong suit eh?

I only used it as a term of disrespect when someone attacked my job...there are millions of decent people working 9 to 5. Having said that it does tend to be those people who are most likely to take the piss out of someone for attempting to do something risky. The self employed people I know understand that it's a difficult thing to do and tend to be more encouraging. One thing I won't do is pretend something is true when it isn't. I have met some very nice people up here but there is a hang up about outsiders simply because the North East doesn't have so much of a history of different people compared to London or the South in general. Being from Cornwall people at least get used to outsiders coming in because of tourism. I appreciate your good wishes about my album, and the fact you can manage to rise above the bullying and herd mentality. I know that sounds dramatic, but it is sort of on a par. I've had far worse shit in my life to deal with than a few insults on a forum, but I'm serious about the general tone of the place. It's neanderthal.

Do you have posters of or up in your little wankpit

I understood what he was getting at re: the reference to talent, it's the bit about DotBum claiming credit I questioned, seeing as he didn't despite your claim to the contrary. I would have thought that was obvious. That said, I'm still willing to bet you're talking shite re: your album, however you can prove us all wrong by telling us when it's going to be released so we can listen for ourselves. I won't be holding my breath like. 75130[/snapback] Ok, I'll try a new tack...I'll see DotBum's Nick Drake and RAISE him a John Lennon. My songwriter beats his songwriter, ner-ner ner-ner. You see? Nothing to do with us. Anyway, if you'd read more closely, I already said earlier that there were no guarantees about releasing my album, but what was important to me was to get a publishing deal.

I don't see how taking the piss out of each other for fun is so wrong like. When other posters call me Frodo I see it as a term of endearment, which is what it is, you sense of humour bypass Southern Bastid. 75126[/snapback] Just venting really, I wouldn't mind if there was a bit of variety but it's all too predicatable and frequent for me. Horses for courses but it seems you can't have a proper chat without someone slinging an insult for fear of looking encouraging. I just think it takes more confidence to be supportive than to take the piss.
