What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

[Andyrew]

I like a bit of karma being issued and have Seen a good few of those bait bike videos. 

I thought some of them looked a bit too obvious tho, and it appears it's not unheard of for some people paying homeless people to "perform" as the theif for a few hundred dollars.  Same can be said for some of these animal miracle rescue videos when a puppy or cat is in a horrible situation or collapsed just happens to be found by a few people with a camera. Due to the popularity of these videos getting millions of views, it has raised concern of animals being drugged and put in these positions to be "saved" from.

Sadly where there's money to be made there's always going to be few arseholes.

On a gravel track, in a forest, at night, miles from anywhere, in the pissing rain, or fog like soup, at 120mph? Yup they need that many.

They do look a bit fake tbh... although the electrified bike ones are quite funny...

Was there some sort of flame war in the Bristol to ban diesels thread? I got a 'like' for a post there, and the thread appears to have gone.

Not surprised if so.

Not gone, just only visible to those brave/stupid enough to ask for access to the politics bit.

 

 

[TataBobu]

Where does one perform such a foolish act? I'm asking for a friend...

[loserone]

PM a mod, or just ask pubicly in here.

[Kiltox]

‘Kinell, what did you do to that thread L1?  

Can I have access, please, mods? 

[loserone]

I used the B word and then inspired* @sierraman to go off on one about reopening the mines.

[sierraman]

I genuinely made that comment as a joke.

I am still convinced your secret informer at No10 leaked the info to you. We will all know the truth when it starts happening...........

[sierraman]

Fake news!

After an email and phone call today, I think I'm about to be very busy... getting all my vacuums down from the loft as a bloke from a news agency wants to come and interview me...

Excited and fucking dreading it at the same time!

I'd be very cynical about it.  Why would a journalist want to interview a nut job like you (No offence meant) 

Do you have any editorial control? 

What's in it for you?

Why the utter fuck? How come we can't be trusted to talk about significant policies and decision that affect us driving older cars on a SHITTING CAR FORUM THAT REVOLVES OLDER CAR??

Strewth. I utterly despair at this place at times. ?‍♂️

[loserone]

We can, but since it involved political discussion we can't be trusted to do it in the open without someone invoking the "oi, no politics" rule.  

 

And I mentioned brexit.

Yes and no, I'm not the first collector to be interviewed, but I am going to chat with the last and see if he can offer any pointers

Plus they'll heavily reference my youtube channel which is good as as long as people subscribe I don't care if they laugh at me or not!
