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.

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?
