Celebrating HBF's 100k post. He is an ornament to big footy. The Casual Chat Thread

[JoseMourinho]

Only since I accidentally compared the thread to Game of Thrones.

The game of thrones version would be "So Lannisters, how do you like Spineless Tommen now?"

 

[Reginald Perrin]

That's how it started, but Plugger's troll/melt was so unrelenting that over time he's clearly embedded himself and his club in the heads of numerous Freo flogs across this site.

You'd like to think so, but here's the reality: We don't care.

Ross leaving St Kilda - We don't care.
Mythical "Whispers in The Sky" - We don't care.
Sirengate - We don't care.

Plugger cares, and he has drawn a few cronies into the mix. One or two Freo supporters have lost themselves, but on the whole, we don't care.

I know this post goes against the whole "we don't care" ethos, but there it is.

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

I found all the melting to be that you do care

 

[Plugger35]

Isn't his thread meant to be about books?

It is.

Yeah, running that line might have worked if the comments from Saints supporters weren't all "suck it Ross" and "couldn't happen to a better bloke" etc.

The offended is not so much about Freo stealing Ross as it is about Ross dumping St Kilda.

PS, how did you get the bh word past the filter?

Magic.

I'm not sure why that word is in the swear filter anyway when it's not a swear word.

 

[JoseMourinho]

We already discussed this book, Plugger.

We're talking about "tomorrow when the war began"

No talk of lord rossymort anymore

You mean the kind of rivalry where flogs like Plugger continue to melt over the offended from us stealing Ross Lyon, and the Freo fans defend Ross because he's the boss, but don't as far as sledging StKilda because their team has been so bad since we got Ross that they're not even relevant to the competition

That's a fair melt right there, I'd say without doubt it's a rivalry now.

It was already getting Bay-ish enough in here, do you really have to run with the everything's melty nonsense?

A month and a half ago I bought a shitty old pool table for $100, the moment I got home I put it up for sale as a 10x better one for $100 came up. Managed to sell the original one that night and dropped it off and grabbed the money to pay for the next one. Played the living shit out of that one and sold it for $300 last night. Picked up a 9x5 this afternoon thinking it was a MDF board one as the lady assured me it wasn't slate, the moment we rocked up and tapped the underside we knew it was slate. Oh and when we tried to lift the 800kg ****ing table. Did I mention I just bought a 9x5 slate top table for $300 in awesome condition?

Looks like there's a hell of a roll on that table.

Lifted with the knees of course, but still been better. A mate of ours had it land on his feet while trying to get the legs off though, that wasn't fun.

Ahahahaha, i remember doing the same mistake when lifting the pool table not realising it weights a ****ing ton.

Yep. The main character Ellie(?) is based on a good friend of my sister. He used to read bits of The Great Gatenby to us before it was published.

Question: Why is it that before cabin baggage restrictions everyone could fit their bags on a plane without fuss. Now that there are restrictions there isn't enought room for cabin luggage and half the plane now have to check in their bags on board.

Might be one for Morganashlee and Allikat
