I fear your post is too good for TVF to handle.

Who will be the first to moan about another RIP thread?

It used to be me. Not because I don't like to eulogise at the passing of people; just the lazy assed use of "RIP" as a contraction.

I used to tell people that "RIP" was written on tombstones because it was cheaper to have engraved - which I notice other people do on my behalf now.

The funny thing is I think I might have made that up. Sounds like it should be true though, eh?

Tellybox has managed to shoehorn in an opinion anyway.

Not that I believe him, mind.

At the suggestion of tvmercia, Metropol has changed to a Jack LaLanne tribute theme during these sad times.

And may I be the first to say how glorious this new theme is. You really pulled out all the stops with that one.
Ronnie is victorious, vivacious in victory like a venomous dog. Vile Republicans cease living while the religious retort with rueful rhetoric. These rank thugs resort to violence and swear revenge.

But Ronnie can punch through steel so they lose anyway.

I see Dimblebot couldn't even go to the effort of wearing a black tie, but I suppose such things are beneath him, especially since you can't juice bacon.

I assumed he'd just borrowed Peter Sissons' tie.

This is fast becoming Metropol Watch.

I had no idea Jack LaLanne was a TVF icon. I do remember his infomercial very well for some reason.

Ah but when did you join TVF? This was in the very old days of the original chatroom

I realise I've mounted my hobby horse now in respect of the footy sexism row - which I genuinley couldn't give a toss about really.

But doesn't anyone else see the irony in ginofish saying "its a fuss over nothing"?

Doesn't he whinge a lot about being judged unfairly?
