  1. ...He could shout at people...

    Now that you mention it,the guy had a terrible shouting voice.

    Really screeching and grating.

    Not exactly Windsor Davies in a sergeant major role.

    In the days of Diddy Leagues and empty stadiums you could frequently hear every word,and you just wished he would shut up.

  2. Madness - Bawbaggy Trousers

    Bellamy Brothers - If I Said You Had a Beautiful Bawbag Would You Hold it Against Me? :huh:

    George Formby - When I'm Cleaning Bawbags

    Andy Stewart - Donald,Where's Your Bawbag?

    Bob Dylan's ode to puberty...

    The Bawbags they are a-Changing

    and for a seated fart...

    Bette Midler - You are the Wind Beneath My Bawbags

  3. A petition to stop music being blasted out before the game and killing all atmosphere could be a good place to start on that one.

    I'd pay a tenner a month for that.

    It's a football ground,not a Senga filled club or f*cking local radio.

  4. Holyrood style fannies who say 'Scoddish' instead of 'Scottish'.

    Some American women,who strangely start to half speak/half croak from the back of their throats,as they get towards the end of a sentence.

    I never thought of this one before,but I listened to a debate on slavery on BBC radio the other night,and by the end of it my main conclusion was that I was just glad the various contributors with the thick,grating African accents had finally shut the f*ck up.

  5. I've noticed over the years that an uncanny amount of union leaders and nationalist/verging on national bigot types seem to have really strong versions of their local accent.

    I don't know if it's evolution or what,but it's a bizarre phenomenon that offers up a new example every time there's an industrial dispute or William Wallace documentary on the telly.

  6. I think it's only the strength of an accent that makes it grate (that's grate,not great).

    Pretty much any strong regional accent sounds like shit.

    A strong accent from this part of the world grates on me much more that a mild Scouse or Brummie accent.

    You name it,the thick versions all sound awful,and mild versions sound all right.

    Aberdeen,Dundee,Fife,Edinburgh,Glasgow ,Ayrshire,Geordie,Scouse,Manc,Yorkshire,Brummie,Welsh,Cornwall,Cokney and related,Nor/Sufffolk,Norn Irn,etc.

    They all range from painful to hilarious.

    As for foreign people speaking English with an accent,I think it's definitely the French who are hardest to listen to.

    Even someone with a great vocabulary can be tough to stick with.

  7. one guy that sticks in my mind was that prick who played for dundee utd .....tom brown tackled him (fairly in my mind) and he rolled all over the pitch as if he had just been shot ....THEN....the bastard while on the ground...looked up to the north bank and started laughing.....then started rolling about again...cheating bastard...can remember the whole of the north bank almost running onto the pitch that night and lynching him. :angry:

    Hasny Aljofree.

    He scored a late penalty for Plymouth at Peterborough in the FA cup recently. Clearly delighted,he tried a f*ckwitted,noise up celebration in front of the home fans.

    He didn't bargain on someone taking exception to it and lobbing a bottle at him. :lol:

    He then spat the dummy and squared up to the whole Peterborough support. :lol:

    The comedy continued when Peterborough equalised a couple of minutes later.

  8. people who have strategies and systems. its completely bloody random!!

    some woman a few weeks ago had a ridiculous 'colour cluster' theory. basically she said that the colours 'clustered' together, so she would definaely be able to pick out blues, or something along those lines.

    in the end she ended up with £750 i think. then when edmonds questioned her system she said that it was a 'freak occurance' and that she had simulated the game hundreds of times and that was the only time this had happened.

    the minute i see idiots with systems i always want them to end up with hee haw!

    I posted about that in General Nonsense at the time.

    F*cking hilarious. :lol:

    I nearly pished myself when she ended up with peanuts after knocking back an offer that would only have been declined by someone who finds logic and probability to be an alien concepts.

    Then again,that's exactly the kind of person who thinks they've got a system to beat Deal or No Deal.

    The funniest thing was that it was one of the other box openers who burst out greeting when the diddy box was finally revealed.

    Mrs.Logicless took it quite well in comparison.

  9. Don't know if its to the same extent, I've never heard the equivalent of some junked up bam in the centre of lets say Chigaco shouting at his 5 year old wean "Fkin shut up , are ye f**kin stupit, fking shut up" as I did on the way into work the other day.

    Glasgow's pish

    This is it.

    In most big cities you need to head to the darkest depths of the schemes before the ratio of losers and menaces:normal people starts to increase.

    For me,that's what separates Glasgow from the other big cities I've been to. Right there,in yer face,in the city centre,you rarely have to look very far for someone you'd rather cross the street to avoid.

    You see all the same problems in most cities,but it's so much more persistent and obvious in Glasgow.

    In all the time I spent in London in the 90s,I can honestly say I was only blatantly approached by one beggar.

    In Glasgow I routinely get stuff like the Neds who I refer to as 'voluntary workers' who loiter and helpfully offer their services to assist you with car park ticket machines and ATMs.

    These guys also specialise in tear jerking sob stories about how they've been robbed that day,or something similar.

    What they need is something like Giuliani did to New York,where all the crap just wasn't tolerated any more,resulting in the centre of town flourishing and becoming unrecognisable to the jungle it was before.

    It actually a pity that this stuff taints some of the decent points made in the first post on this thread.

  10. In no particular order.

    1.

    The friendly city tag.

    From where did this pish arise?

    Friendly unless you're an asylum seeker who's been given a free flat and money?

    2.

    I'm from Glesga therefore I'm funny.

    cf Andy Cameron, Gerard Kelly (the worst actor in the history of the world),Elaine C Smith(I know),etc.

    3.

    General begging.

    I've never seen a western country where there are so many different people looking to get your money off you.

    I used to walk from Central to Queen Street every day,and it became impossible to make the short trip without some c*nt harassing you for money,whether it be a spaced out Big Issue guy,a charity mugger or just a random street urchin.

    I read an article about the problem in the Evening Times once,and the writer just dismissed with 'Ooh the Glesga banter' type stuff.

    I used to find myself zig-zagging down the street to avoid all the c*nts.

    4.

    The Barras.

    I went to the Barras a couple of years ago for the sole reason that it had been ages since I'd been,and I wondered what it would be like.

    It was only when I went that I realised why it had been so long since I'd last been there.

    A total f*cking Ned infested dump,right in the middle of a part of town that's an even bigger Ned infested dump.

    5.

    River City.

    Fuxake ,it's bad enough having to listen to this kind of pish as part of your real life,never mind actually choosing to watch it on the telly as well.

    Is there a good reason why it's called River City anyway? Given that virtually every large settlement on the planet has a river running through it,hence the reason it became a large settlement in the first place.

  11. A. No idea.

    B. At 'Insert>Date and Time' on MS Word there is an 'Update automatically' check-box that has to be cleared to stop the updates.

    I notice that Wordpad doesn't have this checkbox available,so the Works word processor might not either.

    However,Wordpad doesn't update automatically,so this suggests that the checkbox must be available in Works.

  12. are you talking bout the 7.5 version?

    7.1 has been generating pop-ups warning that the product is being discontinued shortly. From the wording of those pop-ups I thought that the only option they were giving was to upgrade to the pay version.

    Fortunatley it seems that this is bollocks because the new 7.5 version is going to be free as well.

  13. AVG isn't free anymore after February.

    Edit: No. Bin that idea. They've just worded it to make it look as though you need to upgrade to the pay version when,in fact,there's a new free version coming along.

  14. Didn't he also dismiss the fuss that was being kicked up about the need for strict segregation when the old firm came to Love Street the last time we were in the SPL?

    The example of St.Johnstone happily giving up most of their ground to the old firm was cited,even though pissed off St.Johnstone fans were running a campaign against losing their season ticket seats to old firm fans at the very same time.
