I miss otto.

Do I need to recategorise this thread again?

So I went to the tip last week and they had a machine that would look at home in Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors.

Can I not fast forward the inevitable?

Fine, so a "friend" worked out at Olympic Park operated a digger, they hit a huge amount of old copper wiring. Within 30 minutes there was a truck there, the diggers loaded it all in and everyone got paid.

Two days later the chaps from BT showed up. All gone too slow.

Regarding tips, there was a tip in my old home town, 2 dollars per load. It was robbed.

May I suggest the use of the ignore button, as per repeated comments earlier in this thread, rather than responding. It's working a treat for me.

Well for a start it is simply untrue. I am quite sure there hasn't been a single occasion Otto has even come close to what you claim.

As for your odd Islam hang up, who would support criticism levelled at an entire religion?
A lot of people on here. Especially Christianity. That's the safest one to mock because it'mot foreign and you wont get called a racist

Well technically Christianity is foreign, I think the reason you may have been called a racist in the past is not that you attacked the religion but rather the race.

Also because he hates blacks.

"I'd give you a tip...BUT YOU ALREADY HAVE ONE! HAHAHAHAHA!"

Goes down smooth every time.

You make a fair point.

Makes this thread a bit strange, but it certainly clears up all the other threads he's started spamming up.

Edit: Ah, gone now? Even better.

Don't be too hard on yourselves, you massive fanny.

Deleted user 20 March 2013 22:25:44

It shouldn't be that fanny, I mean funny, but I have nearly just peed myself a little bit laughing at Stickman's unfortunate posting.

Deleted user 20 March 2013 22:29:56

Stickman wants a tip in his massive fanny.

Deleted user 20 March 2013 22:35:10

I went to the tip once and started shouting at everyone there about how a tip should be run properly. And then some hi-vis guys came over and kicked me out! The nerve!

I went to the tip once and it was rather a mess.

"Hey mate," I cried jovially to a gentleman attired in yellow jacket and hard hat, "this place is a bit of... a tip!"

The beating was remorseless and lasted through the night.

Sorry, but this is like saying "if you don't like getting beaten up at school, don't go to school". Yes, it's helpful to have a thick skin, but this place should also be as welcoming as possible.

This isn't 4chan. If you're going to have mods, then they need to discourage abuse as much as they can. Otherwise you'll just be talking to yourselves until the end of time.

Anyway, tip story: I went to one and saw stuff lying around that really didn't look like it belonged there. Like, things that could have made someone some money at a garage sale.

Not that I would ever go rummaging around a tip for treasure. Just thought it was weird.

While I don't entirely disagree, it's not a great analogy since school is usually mandatory.
