Dame Edna Everage (Barry Humphries), she called everyone possums as a term of endearment.

Yes, I know now, Barry Humphries was the effeminate chap in the TV show

"Are you being Served".

More like a Humpty Dumpty event.

The self appointed experts over at the health forum will attempt to use their much promoted colonic and enema strategy combined with naturopathic "remedies" to  put him back together.

You cannot be a real possum if you do not know this

Whoa. Double fail that combines both blasphemy and trolling. John Inman, a much beloved stage performer played the  role of Wilberforce Clabourne Humphries.

Barry Humphries is not an "effeminate" chap. He  is a  heterosexual with a pronounced fondness for women, who was  quite the skirt chaser in his younger days. Hence, the reason he is on to his 4th marriage and has 4 kids. He's a typical Australian male, confident  in his sexuality, a charmer of women and not afraid of  wearing a budgie warmer.

I will not post about this contest this year. Uh oh. Just broke my promise.

I genuinely have no idea what point this guy is trying to make here. Anyone?

Ask your wife with whom you have a genuine relationship and not one of those pay-for-play delusional-that-she-really-likes -me jobs you like to talk about.

BANNED BY QANTAS

 

The notorious “sick bag” prank. Barry Humphries carrying on to an aircraft a tin of Heinz Russian Salad, which he would then surreptitiously empty into an air-sickness bag while in first class. At the appropriate point in the flight, he pretend to vomit loudly and violently into the bag. Then, to the horror of passengers and crew, he asked for a spoon and proceed to eat the contents

IMPORTANT TVPOTY BULLETIN

 

Reuters have just issued the latest update on the much awaited, up and coming Poster of the Year Awards.

 

JTs spokespeople announced that he won't be running this year, as he needs to focus on his 100k post party. Rumour has it that he is hiring Toad's Island off the Thai coast and the event will make the full moon gatherings look like a vicar's tea party. Those lucky enough to receive an invite will be picked up on a Pattaya jet ski (slightly damaged) and whisked off to the luxury party setting. The guests will be given clappy hands and are expected to drool and sigh every time JT speaks.

Aside from the traditional 100,000 post speech, all of the members that “liked” a JT post have been summoned together and they will be arriving separately in a small van.

Nancy L has been attending classes concerning being a nicer person, however the lecturer quite rightly pointed out that she couldn’t get any nicer and more PC than she is now. He suggested this year, she change her image somewhat, a drugs scandal, or perhaps some infidelity, so she can draw from the middle of the road voters.

Transam attended secret singing lessons with Miley Cyrus (that’s another story) and is said to be considering putting 4 V8 engines into a Tuk Tuk and going for the Malaysian GP. His PR team explained that he is now a much more mellow person, after his 3 month visit to Colorado. He will no doubt follow his traditional path of sitting on the fence until the very last minute, before launching his push.

Toad has always dreamed of winning this award, but being in the very large shadow of JT, it must remain a dream. Over the years, JT has bought everything that Toad owned, and with the constant threat of revealing what happened with the rabbit and the corkscrew, the main man has Toad firmly in his grasp.

Soi Biker comes across as an intellectual that likes physical exercise, and can be seen on his soi bike if you can get past security. His elusive wife was born in dear old Blighty, which makes him the third person ever to bring their wife with them to Thailand. Conrats on that one. When asked about his forward thinking views on current events, he simply replied, “I’m sorry, but I’m not a backward guy”.

When asked what would be the first thing he’d do if he won, he replied without hesitation, “I’d ban the list of 1,487 users that I dislike”.

Village Farang made a late surge in 2015, so expect to see some razzamattazz from his corner. Word has it he is doing some renovation to his northern castle, and is far too happy to consider anything negative. His main supporters were handing out leaflets yesterday explaining why VF’s life philosophy is so good – Strive to Live and Strive to Give! The bank account details for the fund are on the back, he also accepts credit cards too.

Possum lodged a complaint with the commission that he wasn’t getting a mention in the minutes, and was told to ask Edna about this. In the popularity stakes, Possum has leapt up the ratings due to his generous and compassionate manner, and he is expected to play on the sentiments of the voters, especially in the final stages.

JLC is the dark horse this year, and little is known about this mysterious candidate. There was talk of him owning a million bison, most of which lived with him in his Manhattan Apartment. He has a very upbeat attitude and doesn’t take fools kindly, and when asked what his first action would be if he were to win, he smiles wryly and said, “Absolutely nothing”

The left wing are said to be leaning towards this happy go lucky playboy, and with the mature hippy vote secured, he could spring a surprise.

 

 

 

[SoiBiker]

He should run for poster of the year on that other forum. If he manages to gain their unanimous support, he could receive anything up to 20 votes.

[geronimo]

Meanwhile Soi Biker has reached the epic 10,000 post mark. Being a modest man, he plans to have a few bikers over for a few beers. Congrats!

[geronimo]

Soi Biker's PR have just announced that the new avatar is aimed at the radical vote.

Size isn't the over riding issue.  I hear from multiple sources that he must have a really warm heart- based on hand temperature.

Actually I am very proud of my (real) JLCrab presence on Twitter as heads of large international NGOs and Law School professors around the world have blocked me as that's what they do to persons who post things that they don't want to hear. I also have multiple posts as (real) JLCrab which on the New York Times occasionally go into the high recommend category

I'm immensely proud of my bronze swimming certificate and the fact that Philip Schofield once read out one of my letters in the broom cupboard.

Anyone with more likes than posts has a good chance of cleaning up.

My method whether on ThaiVisa, Twitter or elsewhere is to write things succinctly enough so that someone has already finished reading it before they realize that they wished that they hadn't read it.

The post count is only half of what it was, around the same amount disappeared when one thread I started vanished off the face of the earth during the forum upgrade.

 

What is the upgrade?No difference in my opinion and certainly a dark period in TVF history.
