Hmmm, yeah. OK. Newbies taking over the asylum again?

That'll work.

Let me know when it's over

Btw, if it ever becomes a serious attempt - I'm on the side of the present establishment.

Careful - you could scratch someone with those claws...

Jet - just what was that verbal excement dripping from your mouth like the venom from your cranial appendages? You should know that 'ping' is the sound of that little machine so loved by the Monte Python clan in moments of operating theatre BEDLAM! Thus, my qualifications for ownership of this illustrious forum cannot be denied. You read me correctly, I am launching a takeover bid with the platform of reversing the roles of BMs and moderators. Any sanity occurring within the forum will be swiftly dealt with!

Two more strikes for Chairman: He cannae even spell sh*t in its synonymous form and he divulges his own secrets without even being tortured. Yep, he's our perfect paper chairman.

The only Monty show we refer to here, Chairman, is Life of Brian, because that is the only tape we have, so get with the f*ing programme.

Fluffers, the only complainant of my gracious and eloquent monikers was Jim squared, who huffed and puffed, threw a tantrum and went back to General. Itty Bitty Dancing Kitty, Twinkies, GaGa, Beakboy aka Cawbie (I just upgraded him to Beakboy), Limpalong, they all adore their new nikkers.

You cannot be chairman Fluff, because, well just because. Remember, we even gave you the toilet paper dispensing duty and you gave each cubicle user a roll instead of two sheets. Totally blew our operating expenses through the roof, which is likely why Chairman was able to fall through it, as we have been unable to reallocate funds for its f*ing repair.

Limpy, where is the chainsaw person who thinks he can hack his way in here without so much as a by your leaf? And who is this Humphrey ursus? I need a secretary and lists to maintain personnel records.

I take it you are referring to the unedited version (the full Monty)?

This is the 'Three cheers for Bedlam thread'? Right???

Jet, you are like a non-American, female verison of Denis Leary....I LOVE IT!!!

F* bedlam, Jet needs some redressing:

First of all, I'll have you know that I am drunk as a skunk, and have had to make about twenty spelling corrections already.

Secondly: Noobies like Medus-a-lot are not about to start dictating to me how much toilet paper to give out. Especially as I only give out comfortably powered mini-shower heads, and not paper. So, as one would say... suck on that...

Tertially, neither I nor anybody else seeks chairmanship of bedlam. That is why the term "CHariman" cannot be adopted by any of us.

We are all in this together.

Love it or leave it.

Lastly, t-is rare that I speak so vehemently about anything.

Before you respond, please take a moment to think about, perhaps re-read what I have written.

I speak not lightly.

Always looking on the bright side.

bum chi bum..

Did I miss something? Filing my nails, can't be bothered. Did someone appoint a secretary for me? Was that it? Oh. there's the phone. tata

Three cheers for Bedlam? Don't make me laugh.

It used to be filled up with Boon Mee's right wing political threads until most of the members complained about it and he stopped.

Frankly, it was more interesting then than now. Seems to have gone to the other extreme. nothing serious, just fluffy, pink bunny kind of threads.

Too many of the really witty posters got banned, which also contributed to Bedlam becoming a cyber waste-land.

Ok .... here's the deal.

You don't like something, you change it .... it's fairly pointless and a very ineffective standpoint if all you are going to do is complain about the now and rally for the then, especially if you haven't made any substantial contribution.

You don't like it, you change it. I would like to think that every single contributor to this sub-forum would welcome your input, your questions, your opinions and this part of the TV forum in general allows you to discuss non-Thai related subjects..... I've read your posts and you are a rational human being and I think that you could add some quality to 47 ..... why don't you do that instead of just whinging?

Additional.

We have had a couple of thought provoking subjects down here in the basement recently, most of which have been discussed by the pro-for with the pro-against, without any flaming, without any insults and without anyone going to bed angry..... (ok... maybe one has)

That for me makes Bedlam what it is, it's few mates sat in a bar discussing whatever subject springs to mind..... open forum mostly, if not always, descends into a rock throwing event time and time again..... when I was young and stupid that had some appeal, it no longer does.

Additional II

Re the pink and fluffy posts.

I spend most of my day in a small Isaan village, I do laundry, I take care of nine dogs, I fill in the holes dug by those nine dogs, I take my daughter to school and collect her again later, I do impromptu English lessons when asked, I run errands for my wife and I bend over backwards with Immigration just so the I can do that.

Sometimes, most times, pink fluffy and nonsensical is just the right remedy for that situation.

Yeah, this thread started as a fun 'let's praise Bedlam' thread. Why would someone come in and add derogertory comments. You're entitled to the view, but start another thread with that view-point in it!

I still love Bedlam!

ps When we did have long rambling political threads only half dozen, or fewer posters contributed. I got bored with them and stopped viewing them, after 9 or 10 pages of re-cycled <deleted> it just became too much!

Tiggy swore! Who's responsible? Lemme at him.

Well, I got dissed for initiating noober goobers, so what do y'all want me to do now? Sit quietly in the corner until I crumble to dust? Perhaps I need to start a new thread...Jettie's Hazing and Nail Extensions. Jettie's Hazing, Eyebrow Weaving and Double-Double Pinot Grigios. Jet's Corner: For all your Noobile Needs. Don't get Vetted, get Jetted! Jet Sum. The Jet Wing: Best BBQed Noobies in Town!

Where's NR and Miggy and Itty Bitty Dancing Kitty?

I have to do something useful, Girls. I don't do windows or toilets.

Jet, you are like a non-American, female verison of Denis Leary....I LOVE IT!!!

I love you too, Bopper.

I have to start a new thread, because I have a dress to build. I think Fluff has a two-day hangover. I know now what to buy him for Xmas: a spell-checker. I'm interviewing candidates now.

All a bit like when you were a kid, looking on with envy when the grown ups were lining up to get into the " In" nightclub in town.

Some of them were turned away by the bouncers and the odd scuffle would occur. Eventually in time you would be old enough to stand in the line and cool enough to be let in.

What a FFF%^&in disappointment. Purple/red velvet decor and the bogs stank of piss. Lots of your mates would moan like <deleted> and leave. But one or two would smile and say "we may as well have a drink while were here," and next thing you know you're back next week, welcomed by the staff as a friend and you've found your local.

Key to the whole issue was well put by Thaddy. If you don't like it leave. It certainly will never be perfect or to everyone's taste, but if you make the effort, you never know it may well grow on you.

Loved all three of your posts, Thaddy. You hit the nail on the head (and Suiging wasn't far off either... )

Three cheers for Thaddy - hip, hip....

hooray!

Open yoor eyes you doofus. Read the badlam rules (optional) sit back, abuse somebody (if you are ready to take it in return), get drunk & have some fun.

Post & discuss whatever. But just remember - no pink bits!

Gorgon normally handles the intro's so PM her & let her know you are here. (Required)
