Guest fountainhall Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 The "Gay Thailand Forum" allied to the PBB has not lasted long. This notice is up on the site today - Closed, due to BIG changes coming. All posts and membership will be lost, sorry. Re-opening eta APRIL 2013 No info on the type of changes. Must be quite major if they take 4 months to implement. Quote

Guest timmberty Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 its had 4 posts in 2 weeks so there wasnt really much point in keeping it going .. same as the pbb .. that was fun for a while, but as boring as you like now. theres only so much slagging you can do. Quote
Guest Jovianmoon Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 theres only so much slagging you can do. Agreed. And slagging is utterly pointless. Nobody learns anything and most people walk away angry, while some people pretend to claim victory in their pathetic little self-created online empires... oh, er, oops - I'm slagging... 80 Quote
Rogie Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 . . . while some people pretend to claim victory in their pathetic little self-created online empires... I suppose some are indeed pathetic, but others deserve some credit. As you said 'self-created' . . . sounds a lot like self-expression to me and that's usually worth something, if only to its creator. But there are countless millions of these empires and no doubt something for everyone, whether as consumer or little empire-builder. If I had to choose between attempting to self-create an 'empire' and having a good ol' slagging I hope I'd hold my tongue (or maybe type away furiously, then delete what I'd written . . .is there such a thing as creative slagging?).

Guest Jovianmoon Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 I think I see where you're going with this... ...is there such a thing as creative slagging?). In my experience, only Billy Connelly is truly capable of this. I may be wrong. Quote
Rogie Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 I think I see where you're going with this... We all occasionally get angry or worked up and sometimes feel the need to vent steam. Better to howl at the moon (sorry Jovian!) or bang your head against the wall than say or write something you may later regret. But if you do succumb, better to do it with humour and, . . . well, be creative! Not many things are worse than slagging others off when they can't answer back or defend themselves. The BB is, quite rightly, much-maligned IMO because of this. I wonder why so many aim their strongest vitriol against those of their own kind? I seldom see a post on a gay message board attacking women or straight men. Quote

TotallyOz Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Ask one who knows - Jesus!! That early Crucifixion sketch was an all-time classic. Speaking of the Crucifix, I saw one of these this week and wondered who would purchase one? Quote

Guest fountainhall Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Oh dear! I feel a nail joke coming on. Eli Mendelssohn is thinking of passing his nail making business over to his son. Driving through Times Square one day, he asks his son what he might do to develop the business further. "Father", says young Moses, "the company has to be much more up-to-date. We've got to appeal to a younger generation. It's all about marketing now." "Meaning what?" asks Eli. "Well, just look at this area of New York? Whaddaya see? It's all huge posters and advertising. We have to advertise and we have to have a gimmick." Not quite persuaded, Eli lets Moses have his way to get on with developing a gimmick. A couple of months later, they're again driving through Time Square when Moses points up to a huge new advertisement. He's so happy because the new ad has finally been revealed. This shows a painting of the dying Christ on the Cross. But in this one Christ has a broad smile on his face. The slogan below reads - "THEY USED MENDELSSOHN'S NAILS" Eli screams at his son. "You cannot do that, my boy! Everyone knows Christ suffered on the Cross. You cannot show him actually enjoying being crucified. Take it down! You've got to have a different gimmick!" Disappointed, young Moses thinks a lot about this. Finally he realises his mistake. After another two months, he is again driving with his father through Times Square and again asks his father to look up. There, in the same spot, is the new advertisement. This one shows a much more traditional painting of Christ suffering in agony on the Cross. Eli initially doesn't 'get it'. Then he spots the slogan below - "THEY SHOULD HAVE USED MENDELSSOHN'S NAILS!" Quote
KhorTose Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 I think I know him! Did he had a really cute bubble butt? Yes, now about 30 and only 5' 7" Quote
KhorTose Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 did you mean that ??because you wouldnt be the first person to have nailed jesus. ROFL. No I wouldn't be the first, regardless of the Jesus in question. Quote
Guest timmberty Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 jesus walks into an inn, puts 3 nails on the counter and asks, can you put me up for the night ... boom boom. Quote
