Title: Be Nice to Techno Day
Post by: Orcs on 17 April 2015, 07:23:50 PM
I have just noticed Technos new signiature.

"Techno....Most picked on member of the form since 2011"

He is obviously feeling a little picked on. I know what you are all thinking:- " He lives in Wales,  He remembers the Great fire of London, He worked for the Evil Empire, ete etc   so what more can he expect."

BUT

He does wonderful work with making the masters (when not hurting himself).

So I think to boost him up we need to have an annual  "Be nice to Techno day" where you can only say nice positive things to him.


I know youl will all agree to this so can I suggest a date for this wonderful annual event???

29th February !   <:-P :O)

Couple of points.


I suggest we have a "fag of the month" in which a member is assigned to be the butt (no pun intended) of jokes for that month. For the month of May, I nominate ... Westmarcher, mostly because ... because ... well, just because he's Westmarcher.

Seconded.

But who is this Technio ?.....Do I have an evil twin ?  :o
Cheers - Not Technio.

No. No. I think that's going a little too far.

I should point out for non-English speakers (e.g. Americans) that in this case "fag" is a public school boy acting as a servant to an older boy. "Fag" is also English for a cigarette - hence the "butt" pun.

Sorry for any misunderstanding.

If Techno or some other unfortunate forum member hurts themselves in a stupid way If Techno is in distress does he have to hang his fag upside down?

I gave up cigarettes over 20 years ago...and I never hung any of them upside down anyway.  :P

Do we really pick on Techno?  All we do is point out facts.

The Welsh have never acknowledged FACTS

They think they were a nation, not a collection of bandit chiefs - after all the ECW should properly be called the War of the 3 Kingdoms - refers to ENGLAND and the two minor one Scotland and Ireland.

Well, it certainly wasn't won at Waterloo - any more than Agincourt was won at Agincourt or Lepanto was won at Lepanto.
