Bedlam To Be Closed

Featured Replies

The Asylum seems to be losing its inmates at an alrming rate. I liken it to the crack in the reservoir wall. If it weren't for the plethora of Youtube threads and posts, Bedlam would be almost atrophied. Perhaps it should be placed into Pub and renamed Spam, Spam, Spam and Spam (or Youtube, Youtube, Youtube and Youtube - same same). The Sandbox could stand as the unique place in TV where BMs are encouraged to troll, flame and bash.

No, I'm not p!ssed - well, not in the imbibing sense - look at the time!

Careful! People posting Youtube vids in this thread will be sent directly to Ns Diesel for a dose of cruel and unusual punishment!

On my screen your post was timed at

"16 minutes ago"

Now that is real helpful! If you're in LOS, that's around a quarter to ten on a Monday morning - reason enough to get pissed, according to many expats and members of TV.

If you're in Oz it would be before, during or after lunch, depending on Melbourne, Darwin or Perth. And if in any of those, you'd be pissed anyway.

If in London, and typing at three of the a.m., then again - reasons to be cheerful (Ian Dury). I will not post the U-toob connection, but it is there.

But then I've been away for a few days, chatting to my 2.y.o. daughter in kiddie-speak, so Bedlam is sanity for me.

I'm only hanging on by a fingernail. I doubt I would be missed anyway.

I've been abused in the past when I suggested it should be renamed Embedlam, and it's only become more that way since then.

Anything slightly controversial and the misandronists come out of the woodwork to belittle every male on the planet (with the exception of their own spouses)!

As a private forum with a qualifying post count, I used to think it was for reasonable adult discussion of some of the more out-there subjects concerning Thailand. However,it's become so PC the only things most feel safe talking about are from the joke pages of the web.

This may be my last post here.

Waiting. <_<

First Tunisia, then Egypt........

Now Bedlam is revolting.................. :o

Those days of yore ............. Tigger with his paddles, Jet with her mouth, happy days. ( where's Moss? )

^^^Not to mention NR, with her ascerbic wit...

E: Jumped at the starting line... again!

You think Bedlam is doing it tough.......have you seen the main forum lately? laugh.gif

I am feeling like Im a little bit odd. I actually find Nurse Diesel a bit attractive these days. Would anyone else give her a tap? licklips.gif

I don't know what happened but my reply just vanished after posting. I HATE retyping a comment I've already posted.

In my part of Chiang Mai it takes forever for a Youtube to load, so I don't even bother responding. I'm now back in Canada and even my fast ADSL sometimes takes 10 minutes to load Youtube. It's just not worth posting.

I think you may be confusing 'PC' with other people not wanting to hear about your sex life Ian.

you know those boring ever so spotty, fat, greasy haired spectacled group of students who sit in the corner of the union bar sipping on half a pint of blackcurrant lemonade for two hours that like the sound of their own voice because it makes them feel like they are more intellectual and witty than everyone one else which gives them a sense of purpose to their existence . whistling.gif

what a laugh. funny how you like to blame the tiny percentage of women posters on tv for every little issue you have with the forum. speaks volumes about you. But I wonder just where these posts belittling every man on the planet are? But wherever they might be they would be a tiny amount in comparison to the ones aimed at women. you really are a joke, a blind one at that :bah:

It must be desperate to take part in a forum where other posters have opinions that are different than yours.

Mea culpa on that last YouTube thread. Apologies.

Why apologise? Your thread provided entertainment for some. Those who it didn't entertain have no need to read it.

Wibble

Well said Thaddy. Erudite, concise, everything a post should be..........Wibble.

You know the actress that played her was once a beauty queen and of course Frau Bleucher too. Pretty good range.

Well, because I'm a little up to here ------ with all the Youtube threads myself. Too many, non-directed, many redundant. But I was sitting here grooving on the Melissa Etheridge tune and got to thinking this is rock, not all that discopop shit I see posted in just about every thread. I guess I imagined that with Led Zeppelin being a British band most music loving Brits would know that Rock is rooted in the Blues and not a Moog Synthesizer.

Then this one of her should positively get your blood boiling...

I think you may be confusing 'PC' with other people not wanting to hear about your sex life Ian.

I can't recall talking about my sex life, other than occasionally mentioning that I actually HAVE one. Your comment on my reply was WAY off base and you are making assumptions out of something that I've never commented on.

How you came up with that comment I have no idea other than showing your bigoted personal biases. I was replying to Old Croc's comment about the multiple Youtube postings

on this site, and my difficulty in waiting for them to load. How that can be construed into something about my sex life I have no idea.

I have been touring around NZ's southern reaches the last fortnite and have missed Bedlam.

It would be a crying shame to see nthe demise of a forum that has given much humour and serious comment on so many diverset subjects.

Myself, I feel there has been a decline since the advent of so many commentLESS postings of so many You Tube vids, I rarely view them.

Seems the thinkers are leaving.

I must admit to going "nextdoor" where I have been accosted....LOL.... by a number of Bedlamers hiding, the faceless ones.

Hide, noway, I use my same avatar, I do not hide, so I am recognised.

Long Live Bedlam.

Not sure what happened, think I got your post mixed up with somebody else's. One really should not drink and post.

My bad.

I would tend to agree, but excuse me if i need to post another Melissa Etheridge video to establish that women CAN play Rock and Roll. What i don't understand is the longing for the old days of "Tigs". A more insipid poster I haven't seen.. Maybe it's just me.

You know.....

If those people complaining about youtube threads have something more valuable to contribute then, well, there's nothing stopping you...........

No problem, Rakers. I have a pretty thick skin. What confused me was my initial reply to Old Croc came out very odd. I hit the reply button after typing an answer and I on'y got a partial post. It didn't include what I wrote and yet was missing the final quote surrounded by [ ]. I didn't even think that was possible.

You know.....
