loong Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Thaivisa members that pronoune it fuh-RANG or fuh-LANG in your head when you read the word falang (fuh-long). Ok, may be difficult to enforce that one but Jesus people it's not that difficult, just listen to how the Thai's say it. Thai's have only one sound for what we transliterate into an "a" and it's an "ah" sound, like the # 5 in Thai. Try to think of one Thai word that has "a" as in "rang" or "at". You can't. I hear long time residents butchering the word falang and I cringe every time. CRIME - claiming to be able to hear what is in the mind of other TV posters. PUNISHMENT - aplogising telepathically to all members . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theblether Posted May 8, 2012 Author Share Posted May 8, 2012 Crime: OP's introduction to the thread being too long Punishment: a lack of relevant / helpful responses Aey there young lassie (brit1984), me thinks that you are being a wee bit harsh. Blethering has now been recognised as an identifiable disease here on TVF and there should be support for the victims and not condemnation! Excuse me......he wasn't talking about this particular OP. Do you mind?? However this particular OP does admit that some of his OP's can be a tad longer than the average OP that you would expect to see from other OP's when they submit their own OP. I'm doing it again aren't I?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David48 Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 (edited) Crime:- Being an aggrieved poster and quacking on much to do about nothing. Punishment:- Creative input required … suggestions please for this heinous crime! http://www.wavlist.c...duck-quack1.wav As an aside ... I sort of miss the ole' duck around the Farm, he had a character all of his/her own. But the Soi dogs (for want of a better descripter) are proving more reliable guardians of the Farm's Fish.

I sort of miss the ole' duck around the Farm, he had a character all of his/her own. But the Soi dogs (for want of a better descripter) are proving more reliable guardians of the Farm's Fish. Perhaps being forced to perform bizarre sex acts on non-alcohilic drinks? Maybe someone will take him under their wing and help him keep his head above water. SC I was driving through the country, some years ago; I came to a stream flowing across the road. "I say, my man, how deep is that stream?" I called to a besmocked yokel, chewing on a blade of grass and leaning on a gate. "Can't say that I rightly know, sir" he replied. "Do you think I could drive my motorcar across?" "I can't see any reason why not". Of course, the car sank without a trace, and I was lucky to get out alive. "I thought you said I could drive across" I cried out, losing my normal suave and dispassionate restraint "Well I'm sure it only comes up to there on the ducks..."

pastitche Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Gilette SC...Wilkinson is a bloke who gets on his knees and prays to a set of posts...not a religious idol. Plenty of crime and punishment there I guess....not enough over the years in my opinion! I love the way he squeezes one out before every goal. His dietician must be a genius. Do you reckon he has to plan his breaks better than Jimmy White (could be a bit or rhyming slang there...)

pastitche Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 But what crime would you have to commit here to be forced to wear these? I remember as a young laddie...playing football in the field and one of our friends comes walking across the grass wearing.... I still don't know to this day what he did to deserve that. he must be scarred for life. Crime: bitter comments by the Scots about their conquerors Punishment: ban on using (normally misusing) the English language Crime: not realising that the a Scot assumed the English throne and all subsequent monarchs are there because of their Stuart bloodPunishment: listening to the broadcasts of the Scottish parliament.

pastitche Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Harrry old chap do you live in a vacuum sealed off from the earthshaking moments of modern history? Are you really unaware that the Stone of Destiny was returned in 1996 (by, of all people, that little quisling Michael Forsyth at the behest of his mistress, Baroness Thatcher)? It resides in Edinburgh Castle, perhaps an inapproprite location since Edinburgh is named after Edward the First who stole it in the first place. Wee Eck, the Scottish First Meenister, has no desire for a republic; like HM the Queen he is a horseracing fan and he gets a lot of good tips from her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It told me that it had intercepted a telepathic message on my behalf but forgot what it was. I then keeled over and died. Poor thing. Does anyone know a good recipe for pigeon? Funny that cos a very tired and well to be honest completely knackered carrier pigeon was just delivered to me by my girlfriend. Apparently it was carrying a whole weeks worth of messages all the way from someplace called the land of smiles? Anyway on opening all of these messages I found they were completely empty! Its a mystery that all right. My neighbour was happy though cos it was a plump bird and he asked if he could have it for his supper. I would have kept it for myself but my crispy fried duck with special fried rice arrived just a minute earlier. He's a canny lad that scouse fella next door. He owes me a greenie or two as well the rascal! Edited May 11, 2012 by smokie36 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do feel tired for that carrier pigeon though ... you really didn't give it to 'that scouse fella next door' ... did you ... You never mentioned the sex of your faithful carrier pigeon ... though I suspect it might be male as it would unusual for the other gender to arrive at you home with nothing to say.
