The Takeover Thread - Duchatelet Finally Sells (Jan 2020)

Don't know why think it will happen tomorrow. To either add to our joy about England's continued progress in the WC or to assuage our grief at losing to Columbia (I think we will win!)

I no longer visit this thread in the hope of seeing the news of a successful takeover - just for the comedy posts. We have some very witty and intelligent people in this forum (OK we have a few who I seriously worry about). In fact probably enough collectively to run a third division football club if they put their minds to it!

If nothing else this thread has caused a dramatic improvement in my speed/skim reading skills.
I just did four pages in under a minute.

It's quite easy to skim through a load of rubbish

150 posts of nothingness since my last visit it seems

Don't tell me you already knew who was the great exponent of cartesian dualism resists the reduction of pyschological phenomina to a physical state and insists that there is no point of contact between the extended and the unextended?

What a bummer eh?

Why do i keep opening this thread in the hope that something has actually happened?

Should you discover the answer, please do share it. I am myself similarly afflicted.

If we move the question mark from @Redvalleyeast 's post to the end of the word thread we get:

"Why do I keep opening this thread?"
followed by
in the hope that something has actually happened

And there's your answer.

one day I will see that this thread has a hundred and twenty new posts and I'll say fuck it it's just about pot noodles and fish puns and I'll give it a miss. Unfortunately, it will be one of those rare occasions when something has ACTUALLY happened.

Can not believe this is still going on and on and on and on and on.....Zzzzzzzzzzz

What is a boomerang called in the Western Australian Aboriginal language, Nyungar?

I wouldn't ask that one, you will only get come backs.

In case you are wondering (I know you're not though), it's a Kylie.

You're right.


I wasn't.

Good grief......get some hobbies!

What part of WIOTOS dont the critics of this thread understand ?

This thread is for the people who like going off on a tangent whether fish puns, Becket, food recipes and Jimmy Seed texting on numerous different sites while riding his bike up various mountains.
Only if you reside inside Duchatelet's brain can you have an idea what happens next.

Until this best of threads and worse of threads comes to a conclusion then I will continue to use it for philosophical graffiti.

The eye sees only what the mind is prepared to comprehend.

If you had known the answer to that question when you were in your 20's 30's 40's and 50's you wouldn't have forgotten the answer because it would be stored in your long term memory, and not the short term memory which struggled with the present moments.

Not a lot of people know that.

i d suggest you start a new thread with it James ...a lovely pic
