Re: get on with each other......
 
well i have been here since the first day and to be honest I cant see any hate.. am I in the wrong threads?

Re: get on with each other......
 
Theres always banter on here but no-one takes it seriously, well not as I have heard anyway

jambutty 17-07-2006 21:30

Re: get on with each other......
 
The trouble is talentedbutslow that everyone is entitled to their own opinion about anything at all but some people seem to think that their view is the right one and others should accept it.

It’s called life, I guess!

At least that is my opinion and I’ll bash anyone who disagrees with me.:rolleyes:

Oh! Yes! There are wry comments too! Winding people up! Irony! Being difficult just for the sake of it! It is difficult to guess which sometimes.

BLACKBURN RAVER 17-07-2006 21:38

Re: get on with each other......
 
well i dont agree with anybody, infact i dont even agree with myself.........i just like winding them there stanley fans up when i post in that section :D

magily 17-07-2006 21:54

Re: get on with each other......
 
I am new to the site as of last week and I have not read a post that is hateful in anyway. In fact I feel that I have been welcomed. I am curious
talentedbutslow which posts you read that you have found to be offensive.

Hate's a bit too strong.

Perhaps you spend too long searching for mushy stories on the internet.;)

Out of curiosity tal how would you feel if I used one of your word games, and you came to our site and seen it.

I'm just answering a question, and no it hasn't been and gone, I've been subjected to a hate campaign for months, i've lost over 200 karma, luckily nice people give it back, but people who don't agree with it and say that they don't on here also get karma took. Cyfr is one, willow another. There is hate on here, I'm resigned to the fact now, I'm still not going to leave, and I'll post as much crapety crap posts as is necessary. So there. :D

garinda 17-07-2006 23:01

Re: get on with each other......
 
I've had some right old ding-dongs on here with people and will continue to do so if I believe in something strongly, but I hate absolutely no one on here.

Hate is a very self destructive emotion for anyone to carry.

Do you really see hate on this site Tal?

That's quiet sad.:(

I think I know where you are going Tal. I've read a couple of other threads tonight and all isn't well with at least one person.

Hopefully, it's the heat causing the problem!

entwisi 18-07-2006 06:34

Re: get on with each other......
 
I must say I've not seen much hate either, good healthy discussion from time to time yes, hate, nope. Neg karma implies taht someone didn't like th at one post that you sent, not that they hate you in totality.

For crying out loud, Madhatter, are you going to harp on about this ad infinitum? You had a bust-up with Mel, it's happened and, yes, it has been and gone. You've lost 200 karma? Does that really matter in the general scheme of things?

Think you need to get out more and drink some beer! :)

LIVING AND GIVING


http://www.motivateus.com/stories/images/barpurp.gif

Whatever you give away today, or think or say or do will multiply about tenfold and then return to you. It may not come immediately, nor from the obvious source but the law applies unfailingly, through some invisible force.

Whatever you feel about another, be it love or hate or passion will surely bounce right back to you in some clear (or secret) fashion If you speak about some person, a word of praise or two, soon, tens of other people will speak kind words of you.

Our thoughts are broadcasts of the soul, not secrets of the brain. Kind ones bring us happiness; petty ones, untold pain. Giving works as surely as reflections in a mirror. If hate you send, hate you'll get back, but loving brings love nearer.

Remember, as you start this day and duty crowds your mind, that kindness comes so quickly back to those who first are kind. Let that thought and this one direct us through each day.

The only things we ever keep are the things we give away.


Tal

Margaret Pilkington 18-07-2006 11:15

Re: get on with each other......
 
I think that sometimes threads can get a bit......erm, terse, but then it mirrors how we sometimes are in the real world. You have bad days and someone will get the sharp side of your tongue.....but it doesn't usually last long....and I don't really think there is any malice behind it.

The site is so diverse and so you are not going to get everyone to agree with everything....that is what makes it interesting.

Gayle 18-07-2006 11:21

Re: get on with each other......
 
I agree Margaret, in fact I was moaning a few weeks ago because no one did argue with me anymore. Either I'm becoming less controversial or everyone's sort of accepted the sort of arts stuff that i do.

actulaly we heard not to mess with you when its that special time of the month but seen as no one knows when it is exactly were plying it safe and steering clear of you all together :p



i would be upset if i was paid monthly as well but i guess it does have its advantages as well as disadvantages :)

Wynonie Harris 18-07-2006 12:50

Re: get on with each other......
 
Why should we get on with each other anyway? Why can't we argue and generally wind each other up when the mood takes us? If we're all nicey-nicey to each other all the time, won't the site get boring? As Mr K always says "it's just a messageboard - it's not real life!"

Re: get on with each other......
 
I have just read all 4 pages of this thread and am still confused, surely the word Karma signifies what comes around goes around, give bad karma it comes back at you and like wise good, we all have to get along, that doesnt me we have to agree, it would be a boring world if we all thought the same way about things

those were the days 18-07-2006 14:01

Re: get on with each other......
 
our own minds and opinions and thoughts are what make us wonderful individuals..... as long as people agree to disagree and are not mean to each other out of spite that is...

Re: get on with each other......
 
Why are all these people getting wimpish about negative karma and members being fwightfully nasty to each other? And what's all this stuff about "what goes around comes around" and "wonderful individuals"? Are we being invaded by bleedin' 'ippies or something?

KIPAX 18-07-2006 14:57

Re: get on with each other......
 
cant the mods or roy take karma access away from people who abuse it.. anyone caught leaving disgusting messages or signing other peoples names or doing it to wind peple up (like i do hehe) then why not DISABLE karma rights for that poster..

Wynonie Harris how well you read me I was a hippy back in the 70s,I love you taste in music by the way, reminds me of my days or should I say nights misspent in london's jaz clubs and dives. And yes I am a soft southerner who has moved North. I think you created "Its grim up north" to keep us out, its the greatest place on earth and I wouldn't go back now even to visit.
Oh dear look I am still being nice again I better toughen up quick

Wynonie Harris 18-07-2006 19:40

Re: get on with each other......
 
Right, Todbear, you've charmed me into giving you some positive karma which isn't a very good start to my negative karma rampage. However, that's quite enough of that namby pamby, touchy feely, hippy dippy, soft Southern stuff. You're up North now, so it's time to start drinking brown & bitter splits, smoking roll ups and eating babys' heads. I reckon a spell on the Clayton End would do you good!

todbear 18-07-2006 19:50

Re: get on with each other......
 
thanks Wynonie, Ok bears have teeth and claws, and aren't always soft and cuddly, :mad: so I'll give it a go, I could probably manage a baby's head but I couldnt eat a whole one!( sorry very old joke) I have always liked bitter, I cant stand any drink they shove lime or bits of fruit in. When we lived in Cornwall we used to drink the local home made cider, you could strip paint with that.

Wynonie Harris 18-07-2006 20:45

Re: get on with each other......
 
Well, I know you southerners are more used to rocket salads lightly drizzled with virgin olive oil, but I'm sure you could manage a baby's head. I usually eat two of 'em with chips, peas and gravy when I go up the chippy. I don't think Holland's are making them quite as big as they used to - reckon the suet crusts aren't quite as thick.

I like the sound of home made cider, though. I'll have a scout round for that next time I go to Hereford.

Madhatter 19-07-2006 02:14

Re: get on with each other......
 
hereford! you can't get cornwall cider in hereford. it's 3 hours further on. One of the idiots of the forum down here, pastitpete has moved to lizard point todbear, it runs the tea rooms.

Wynonie Harris 19-07-2006 07:18

Re: get on with each other......
 
Well what's Hereford famous for (apart from unnatural practices with sheep)? And since it is the cider-making capital of the country, I'm sure there's some enterprsing person making the home-made stuff somewhere. Never mind, maybe I'll find some when I go to Torquay.

Re: get on with each other......
 
I cant drive never learned, but after a pint of somerset scrumpy I cant stand, so even getting to a car would be a problem.
Had my first chip butty the other week, mmmm that was good, they didn't do babies heads though, I shall shop around.

A chippy that doesn't sell babies' heads? Disgraceful! They're a very popular northern delicacy, though, so I'm sure you'll find one soon...and once you've tried it, brown rice and lentils will never seem quite the same again! ;)

Terry you are dead right, but I have been completely barmy for years.

I knew I'd get it wrong, I shall get the steamer out at once, I could chuck a couple in the old copper boiler that might cook them up a treat:dummy2: :dummy2: :dummy2:

Wynonie Harris 19-07-2006 13:03

Re: get on with each other......
 
...well, if you're cooking them from scratch, they need to be steamed for about 5 hours. topping the pan up with water regularly, of course, so it doesn't boil dry...think you might be best buying 'em from your friendly, neighbourhood chippy, though. Getting that suet crust right can be a real sod!

jambutty 19-07-2006 15:00

Re: get on with each other......
 
I don’t know if this still holds good for today, but there was a time when down in ‘Scrumpyland’ a pub landlord would only sell a pint of the golden liquid to the locals. Anyone else could only buy halves.

Tealeaf 19-07-2006 15:07

Re: get on with each other......
 
I dunno...when I was in Hereford for the Stanley game a few months back I popped into a back street boozer I had not been in for 20-odd years. I actually recognised one the old locals in there..anyway, I ordered and got a pint of scrumpy, served up from the poly pin. Still as good has I remember.

If you can get there early enough, there is also the Cider museum to visit...I dunno if it'd open saturday though. I was told to go and see it before the game, but I thought I 'd have a drink instead.

What's "Raver" having a moan about (above)? As usual, I can't make any sense of his posts.

Anyway, the pub is the "Victory" on Owen street (its quite central)...there is also another pub I popped in, called the Barrel (or maybe Barrels?????). The cider the locals like is Thatchers, but there are quite a few farmhouse producers which "guest".

Thanks for the validation GC you know from my past madness's, I never did get them to hold a sheep run in Burnley to coincide with the Pamplona bull run, they just asked "What are you on?"
I know its a soft option (you cant get gored by a fluffy sheep) but it might have been fun.:Banane10: :Banane10: :Banane10: :ohmy8:

From alledged nastiness and evil here at dear old Accy Web, to two old lushes chewing the cud about cider.:D


See, innocent pleasures for everyone on here.:)

Too right, in my case anyway...and think of all those new pubs to be explored in all those exotic locations from Macclesfield to Grimsby! Little old beer drinker me! :D

Must admit, I'm not looking forward to visiting Milton keynes....I don't think there are any pubs there. Its an awful place.

there are concrete cows though.mk is the perfect exapmle of the planners and councilors ideas and ideals of what they think we want and therefore should have.
It has more roundabouts than any other town in the world. it has hundreds of them, and they produce a calendat each year with th favourites on.

Where is the heart of england, which counties would you count as the heart of england tealeaf?

According to a ground guide I've just been reading, the away fans' pub at MK Dons is somewhere called "Shout" which is above the bus station and a night club type place. Sounds dire, but very much in keeping with the general ambience of Milton Keynes.

got some good entertainment and facilities there though they've got that floating on air in a tank thing, real ski slope, bowling cinemas, night clubs, NICE parks, it's always been clean and tidy when I've been, they've got the bowl, although that needs major work in my opinion. There's a quad course by the motorway to, a really long one, I'd love to have a go on that.

Well, Lancashire for a couple of reasons:

1) The geographic centre of Great Britain is at a place called Dunsop Bridge, which lies aprox. 10miles Nor'by North-West of Accy.

2) So if GB was a human body, that would make Lancashire the belly-button; However, we're talking about England, so chop off the skirt-wearers to the north & the sheep lovers to the west, and that moves the belly button south, the bum to the Brummies (how apt) and the heart to Lancashire.

3) HM the Queen - the living symbol of England - is of course, the Duke of Lancaster (second title, before Defender of the Faith, Queen of Scotland, Canada, Australia,etc,etc)

'Owt else you want to ask?

Presumably, good cask bitter or farmhouse cider will not be on sale in such an establishment; would I therefore be correct in thinking that the pre-match elixir will be one or more of these "extasy" tablets? if so, how many shall be needed to match three good pints, and what will be the price?

Re: get on with each other......
 
So your saying the heart is up above the centre which does make sense, It always puzzled me why people say the centre of england is the heart:confused:

I've found this site called heart of england
http://www.visitheartofengland.com/Tourist.aspx

what do you make of that?

Search me, Tealeaf. The only tablets I take are cod liver oil capsules!
