Quote from: "Jamess"Marauder confused me a bit. [spoiler]How can a load of Judges search a flat thoroughly but not find a naked lady till she walks out of the bathroom ?[/spoiler]

Maybe [spoiler]she put a towel over her head. I've heard it renders people invisible.[/spoiler]

Quote from: "thejudgemuffin"My question as someone who has a 'Jock' pic on his desk at work is how do you answer the question:

"Comics?!? Aren't you a bit old for them?"

"No".

To quote the narrator at the end of an episode of Monkey...

"All the troubles in the world are caused by men who are sure of something".

Nobody knows anything about anything and if you think you do, you're an idiot.

I know that for a fact.

Godzilla was based on a real person.

Toshio Gojira, 85, a retired greengrocer from Kyoto, was good friends with the film's original scriptwriter. He shares absolutely no similarities with his namesake besides the fact that he too is a giant atomic-breathed radioactive prehistoric reptile.

A retch of zombies

A glut of fatties

A scrunge of uglies

A similarity of clones

An overload of progs

A fit of coffins

An inferno of Dantes

A dread of judges

A deafness of leopards

A kettle of fish

A barrel of monkeys

and a partridge of pear trees.

Quote from: "the shutdown man"I also noticed someone else adding something to the end of their message, along the lines of "*edit* I'm changing this because someone else typed the same thing" so I thought other people may have noticed it too.
I think that might have just been me not paying attention to what was on the screen and clicking the "Submit" button again 'cos I thought it hadn't worked the first time.

Quote from: "TordelBack"
QuoteHe was actually born in Scotland, and when he's talking to his parents he immediately switches to a rather broad Scottish accent in a very disconcerting way.

It's true,  Every time I pop round for tea at the Bales, I'm mortally disconcerted.
I was referring to John Barrowman. I've heard him talking to his relatives a couple of times in different documentaries.

Quote from: "Tiplodocus"isn't Bale Welsh?
Yep.

Quote from: "Dark Jimbo"Remember how John Barrowman got panned for his 'terrible fake accent' when he first came on the scene? Then we found out he was actually american. Oh how we laughed.

He was actually born in Scotland, and when he's talking to his parents he immediately switches to a rather broad Scottish accent in a very disconcerting way.
