****in' homophones.

Unitron · 11-29-2018, 03:55 PM

I'm gettin' real tired of all these homophones trying to bring us down.

^ HaHa ! Yeah, Unitron! Don't you just hate the fact that "wait" and "weight" are pronounced the same?

^ Well, I hope you both like it here. We could do with some fresh, genial regulars - otherwise MB is in danger of ending up like the prison in this joke:-

New inmate arrives at prison and is sitting round in the communal area. Suddenly, one of the old prisoners says, "Number 47" and all the other prisoners start laughing. After a period of silence, another prisoner says, "Number 31" and everyone laughs again, so the newbie asks the prisoner next to him, "Hey, what's going on?"
"Well, we've been here for so long that we all know each other's jokes by heart. We numbered up all the jokes, so now, we just have to say the number of a joke and it gets a laugh. Why don't you try it?"
So the newbie calls out, "Number 19" but there is no reaction at all. "What went wrong?" he asks his neighbour, "Nobody laughed."
Neighbour explains, "It's not just the joke, it's the way you tell 'em."

^ Thanks. It's copyrighted to a friend at school when we were about twelve years old.

BTW, any new architectural enthusiasms for us Fluff? Your thread is red hot again.

Thanks mate.

I will hopefully be posting some pictures I'm going to take myself soon. I'm following a number of developments locally and going to take a look how they're doing. Excited about them so I'll try to get them posted.

^ That sounds interesting. I really miss the chance to walk around the streets of England so I'm quite jealous of your plans.

Last day to get your nominations in, voting begins tomorrow!

~~[MERIT]~~ · 11-30-2018, 05:30 PM

Next year we're letting members contribute their own categories to be voted upon. And would it make sense to just skip the nominations and go straight to the voting? I mean, is anyone going to vote differently than their nomination?
