This is a question Things I've gone off

Spimf says: I've always enjoyed listening to Pink Floyd, but lately I've noticed if my iPod plays any of their tracks, I skip them. I'm starting to realise I've gone off them. What have you gone off lately?

and those responses above ^^^
is why this site is dying on its arse. Click on the OP's username. See what he contributed to the site in the past. Then, his first post in 3 years gets the predictable response from the shower, nay deluge, of twats that have invaded this board.

Please, Rob, kill off QOTW; it's just home now to people with some fairly serious personality disorders and any "talent" there might have once been here has been driven off by the braying pricks like those who've commented above me.

EDIT: did you have any luck sniveling to the mods about Ringo's sock puppet?

PROTIP: your imagination made it in the first place

So now you want me to furnish it, too?

I dunno, there's a shitty brown couch, smells vaguely of mould and despair. Floral carpet, long past its best and threadbare in many places. Half pint of piss beside the camp bed, which is itself covered in greying, unwashed sheets. All illuminated by the guttering light of a single candle, burned now for so many hopeless nights that it's no longer than your cock.

Do I have to do all the work, here?

Sorry, it imaginarily burned down. You were in it at the time.

No-one came to the funeral.

Well, you dodged a bullet there. He was on your case, warbling about getting you a permaban or something, right up to the moment he deleted the thread in a rare moment of self-awareness.

well, colour me impressed
did you look up "self-awareness" on Wikipedia, or Urban Dictionary?

You've already stunk up one subthread with your dull, trying for two is just needy.

yeah, bored with that now
what's your favourite Mike + the Mechanics album?

you can't say Living Years
(, Thu 15 Aug 2013, 23:59, closed)

Can't say as I've ever listened to a whole album of theirs, but I remember them having something quite listenable in the charts at roughly the same time OMD were peddling "Sailing on the Seven Seas". So I'll go for the album that came from, whichever it was.

At the time, I preferred Roxette.

why did you like that song

Something to do with the drum noises.

A moment of complete and utter
Beige-ness?

It's a bit dis-heartening that 2 of my stories FP'd last week - I was pleased but really I know I'm not the best out there - it's just sad that a lot of the good story tellers don't even bother sticking their heads around the door lest they get showered in dribbly shit.
TBH it seems as tho the mods either are too busy with their digits in dogs bums or some of them appear to be in collusion with the shit-flingers & if that's the case then why even bother coming here anymore?
Anyhoo...

Fair point, but there were one or two Narcissistic gobshites amongst the "classic" posters of yore. In any event, I much prefer an under-modded forum to an over-modded one.

Pity about stories like the OP's here, though - nicely written, inoffensive, more or less on topic, and still coated with the aforementioned dribbly shit.

Hey, ho.
(, Fri 16 Aug 2013, 0:17, closed)
Yes, there were some posters
who were perhaps somewhat "inventive" with their stories - but at least they were generally well-written and on-topic and amusing.

The howls now of "lies" whenever anyone posts anything which may, for example, involve that person having had sex (which does, strangely enough, happen to most people, although the arseholes who now clog up QoTW could probably not believe that) and general abuse that greets most posters has put off most people from bothering.

In general I'd agree with you about the desirable levels of moderation, once the 10 worst offenders at the moment had been nuked from orbit. However, as they are so desperate for the strange validation they take from coming out with their crap, odds are they would be back before too long anyway.

Hey-ho, there's always the QoTW archive to look at for good stories...

More tedious whining really? Don't you ever run out of bile or is there an unlimited supply to draw from?

i think if you read back VERY carefully,
you'll find you're barking up the wrong tree re whining.

Stop crying.

Could you please post a list of acceptable responses?
We could all use that, instead. We'll all save so much time when we can reply "Reply No. 4", rather than typing anything more complicated.

Hahahahaha yeah.
Fuck off back to mumsnet.
