I don’t like Joker being banned.

I don’t like his posts, I don’t like what I see and hear of him, I think he creates a lot of unnecessary trouble for himself to add to his existing problems

but I don’t think he should be banned (same goes for thin and camel blue).

well, that’s it…nobody’s going to hurt me again 8)

I would love to play opposite Giulietta Masina in La Strada. Just to look at her face, the way it gawks and stares and twists and hurts. The simplest face in the world, the moon face of a total idiot, or a saint. She was haunted by the…[Read more]

er – will I ever remember the third question?

using the word ‘skank’ is an excellent way of making women feel bad about themselves…

Mrs Teapot…you’re absolutely right.

I know that some didn’t like him, and that a few unpleasant characters try to ban everyone they don’t like. Panda/Joker was one who specifically stated that he wants to ‘cleanse’ the boards of all elements which he defines as unhealthy (to him), but one person’s poison…

I’m not in favour of banning anyone…[Read more]

standing in the playground, holding my hand up and, in a loud voice, calling on God to crush me under his clay foot to prove that He existed. Opening my eyes and noticing that there was a very wide space surrounding me as the other kids looked on with fascination, wanting to see the show but careful to keep out of the way of that foot.

Nice to see Mr Anderson is alive and kicking. A very skilful writer he.

The Joker is quite a scary figure in folklore, a gremlin figure of malicious irrepsonsibility, likely to crop up at any time to cause mayhem and trouble. It’s the distorted mask of a clown – and clowns are funny and scary. A lot of people find clowns sexually very…[Read more]

I had forgotten how nasty this story was.

Nasty because it has the ring of authenticity. The style of a novelist, not a lampoonist.

Coathanger makes me laugh, but this left me with a slight shudder, if only because of the writer’s obvious skills. It sounds uncannily accurate about Joker, too.

I don’t like the Joke either, but if someone had…[Read more]

ain’t I just?

Mr Anderson has written hardly any stories, and they were rather a long time ago.

He had very good writing skills..just a different style of writing (it wasn’t actually to my personal taste). If I remember rightly, his style was that of a novelist or short story writer; Coathanger’s style is that of a lampoonist, in the grand tradition of…[Read more]

what a waste of writing skills these stories have been, leaving a very nasty taste in the mouth.

If I had an excess of petty malice towards some of the individuals here, I would get a nasty laugh out of it.

But I don’t, and I didn’t.

Doesn’t mean to say I like all the individuals described, but that’s different. Coathanger can be very funny,…[Read more]

Depression can be horrific if you’re suffering from it clinically; tactics like cbt (cognitive behavioural therapy – not as good as it cracks itself up to be in my opinon) can be used, but I spoke to a practitioner once and she told me that she didn’t like dealing with depressives because the despair was so difficult to deal with; it was like…[Read more]

I’m still ‘ere…reading the threads..will post when necessary lol

And on the pedestal these words appear
‘My name is The Joker, king of kings,
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

(with apologies to Shelley and Ozymandias)

Not going too well for the Toad here, is it?

How the Joker squirms and sweats, sweats and squirms…

such an arrogant Joker, as Hubris starts to confront Nemesis, and puffs itself up like a giant toad, shouting ‘Who dares to burst ME????’
