Be Excellent To Each Other

Thankyou Zardoz. That really cheered me and I genuinely L'dOL, though L'ingOL is somewhat painful. I saved it to my desktop for cheeriness in the future

*courtsies*

Can we get rid of that horrible balloon background image yet? Or at least add an option to disabled it, assuming there isn't one already.

You still see that? It was taken down the day after Beex's Birthday.

Anyone else?

Try CTRL+refresh.

That's weird. But I don't think it's a cache issue, given I re-installed Windows recently and the balloon persisted

edit: just used IE for the first time, and it pops up on there, too. Only when I log in, though.

could you be bheind a proxy that has cached it?

Malc

I'm not behind a proxy. Am I the only one experiencing this? Weird.

That you know about - your ISP could have a transparent one. What ISP do you use?

O2.

Have you checked the Board style under 'User Control Panel -> Board preferences'

The jolly balloon appears if 'three-nest' is selected.

Aaaaah.

You want Subsilver2 - but I'll change the 3-nest one now, so it won't matter.

Boom. That's it. Cheers, Kern.

I didn't think to check that. Someone update that theme, then, as I hate horrifically nested quotes.

Of course, right away, no problem.

Sounds like begging to me

There we go.

/puts the balloon back

You're a star. Ta.



Hah.

:wub:

Yeah, I thought it was a permanent thing so I never mentioned it.

I never even saw it to begin with and have no idea what you're talking about

It was a background image of a foil balloon in the shape of a '2'.

I was looking forward to when it switched to a '3'.

Has anything been said today about the boat they've found under Ground Zero? How random.

I saw that - quite incredible!

Clearly a Zionist conspiracy. They'd buried Noah's ark there for safekeeping and needed to bring the buildings down to access the secret gene bank stored in it to use for creating uber-people that can reproduce from small gene pools without horrific mutation from inbreeding. Also - Illimuninati and liberals.

Same here.

I thought Grim... had lost it.

I didn't want to be the party-pooper who suggested taking down the balloon.

WHERE'S MY FUCKING CHEERY BALLOON GONE?

Me neither, but I couldn't figure out how to block it without adding fullonrobotchubby to my hosts file, and Grim... kept bloody posting images, videos and misc hosted there.

Oh my.

Vatican says ordaining women is on a par with raping children.

The Vatican could do with Sentric Digital to handle their PR.

That's a headline from the random wordatron I'm sure

I'm assuming that's a press release to say they're ordaining wimmins now, since the Pope protects priests that bugger wee boys.

Aye, Lave highlighted that yesterday on Twitter. The Catholic Church is my favourite type of clandestine global evil.

The Ancient Ones are actually more benevolent-seeming, aren't they.

Hmm? Sorry, I was too busy inbreeding with a frog.

Actually, i think ordaining women is on a par with raping priests. And as there's clearly no reason not to ordain women, that means it's open season on priests. Fill yer boots!

Super-aww. ;_;

This is exceedingly cool, but at the same time, going too far? The intention is to give the anti-malaria mozzie some sort of advantage over regular disease carrying mozzies, wiping the old ones out by natural selection and presumably going some way to eradicate malaria. Yay! But, nay?

Next from the wacky world of evolution: Supah Boffo Malaria! That present drugs won't treat due to the SUPAH BOFFONESS.

Nay.

In short:

People who die from malaria are poor. This means that they cannot pay for drugs. Which means why should BigPharma invest in something which won't pay them for the research to eradicate it. Eradicating it will cost mental monies. And won't ever happen. Unless someone finds the "stop being fat pill" tomorrow.

That's a shame, really, seeing as the fact that they're catholics pretty much means "tough shit - church = god





PS: Bwahahahaahahahahahahaha





PPS: Jesus is dead, and it's your fault."

I can't erase the image of this just being something you do periodically, to help him acclimatise to life on earth.

I hate the new BBC news website layout.

[puts on special purple rant hat]

Nothing will be done about it the same way nothing was done about that stupid TV weather map that zooms around while some prick waves their hands around and gets in the way of the bit you want to see.

When I was on holiday the other week there was no internet at the cottage so I was forced to watch the TV weather. Every fucking night some arsehole managed to obscure our areas of Herefordshire with their hand.

I also want Jack Scott back presenting the weather. He might be dead but he was aces. None of that wanna be celebrity you got with Fish and Giles.

Would you prefer this tit leering at you obscuring Devon and Cornwall.....



Or Jack Scott with some magnetic symbols?

Flipping a coin: More reliable than tv weather stuff.

change is good. move on. It is not the 80's anymore.

Change shouldn't involve some cunt standing in front of the part of the map I want to see because they think they are more important than the fucking weather.

& the flyby map shite does my head in, especially when I'm on holiday & am unsure what the bit of the country I'm at looks like. Thank fuck for the Met Office website.

I usually use Metcheck, though it's been crashing a lot lately.
Of course, I sometimes also go through every other site until I find a forecast I like the look of
