Anything goes (with in reason of course) here!

  1. Some of us have pretty renowned usernames. I don't like to biggit myself up but on every single forum I'm on, I'm toofpikk. And that is crap. So here, I want to hear why you called yourself what you did, and if you could, would you change it, and why? Called myself toofpikk after trying to upload my first RCT3 video to youtube but couldn't think of an original name. I was using a cocktail stick to pick at plaque on my teeth and I thought that toothpick would be cool, but purposefully misspelt it so I knew I could get the username. I was like 10 or something. If I could change it now I'd change my name to noodle or skittles. Noodle because my favourite mus…

    Tell them what is good, what is bad, and then give them a rating out of 10. I did do a search to check this doesn't already exist, but if it does I'm sorry .

  3. I couldn't find a topic anywhere for this surprisingly, so I decided to make one. The Simpsons is a long established cartoon television show that's been around now for over 25 years and in its time has been very popular. However today, one of the show's long running voice actors Harry Shearer has apparently decided to quit the show, following some disputes including wanting to do other work. Some of you may not know who he is, but has voiced a big chunk of some of the show's primary & secondary characters including Mr a Burns, Smithers, Principle Skinner, Kent Brockman, Ned Flanders & Reverend love joy. Source-BBC news If he's gone for good that's potentia…

    We've all had, or heard of a cheeky nando's experience. Notoriously Londoner is the cheekiest of the cheeky when it comes to cheeky nandos, but others of us too have had cheeky nandos every once in a while. I once had a cheeky nandos, I went with a couple friends and we all sat round a half chicken. I ordered it with medium cheeky piri piri sauce on it and I asked for a cheeky extra hot flag in it. As I was given the chicken it grabbed my crotch and went 'oooooh cheeky'. Good chicken. Share your cheeky nandos experiences here!!

    Everyone loves some good quotations! Someone posts a quotation (from anywhere) and the others just try to guess who and where the quotation comes from! EXAMPLE: "I gotta stop taking my baths during Peter shenanigans!" Correct answer: Cleveland - Family Guy Whoever guesses correctly goes next! (after confirmation). Right. Without further ado, let's begin! ("...and here...we...GO!" < bonus points for guessing this one ) "Almost there! Remember - you're looking for a gun that makes holes! Not bullet holes! But...well, you'll figure it out! Really do hold on this time!"

    After the distressing scenes witnessed in Pizza/Pasta at Thorpe Park over the size of their plates, I got thinking about my ideal food carrier. Would it be circular, square, deep, wide, metal, paper? There are just so many different varieties on offer and this is a place for you to post your ideal buffet plate. It's an absolute disgrace that Thorpe's plates are only small enough for 3 slices of pizza at a time, clearly someone in Merlin has never been to a high class pizza buffet restaurant such as Buzz Lightyear's Pizza Planet at Disneyland. I'll kick it off with a fairly basic plate, but feel free to be a bit more adventurous with your choices. Hopefully Thorpe Park…

  8. Closed Season seems to have dragged on for a bit too long this season (and I have a bit too much spare time on my hands this afternoon), leading to fanboys, enthusiasts and anyone who visits these humble forums in general over-analysing black and white drawings of a square posted by Thorpe. But lo! A saviour has cometh! Meet Tucker: Tucker is here to save our closed season, and reveal the new thing for 2015. But what is it? Tucker likes to pull funny faces, so people won't ask what this NEW FOR 2015 thing is: He gets particularly pouty when people keep bugging him about it: So he escapes to Alton Towers occasionally, and gets corrected...…

    Another excuse to share a bit of music I love and play a little game. I'll post a selection of videos which are clues to or associated with another track, you guess what that track is by posting a video of the one you think it is. Get it right and have a go yourself. Or I'll do another one if you can't be arsed. Does that make sense? There should only be one track that fits. So... ... go!

    Listening to music lately, I've really come to notice how ridiculous, odd, and obvious some of the lyrics are. Post some of the stupidest, obvious and misheard music lyrics you've heard here, and let's just see how odd the world of song writing is I'll start: This is a song by Scooter, can't remember the song's name though: It's not a bird, it's not a plane. It must be Dave, who's on the train.

  13. Let's try this again What is Mafia? The basic idea of Mafia is that out of all the people playing, there's a small group of Mafia trying to bring everyone else down. Everyone else is in the Town, otherwise called "villagers" or "innocents" or so forth. The Town's goal is to get rid of all the scum players. They do this by taking a majority vote each game Day for who they want to get rid of. The Mafia's goal is to outlast all of the Townies until they control the majority vote, at which time there's nothing the Town can do to stop the scum from completely taking over. They can do this by avoiding being voted out and killing players during the Night phases followin…

For a bit of fun, to share some music you love and maybe some things about yourself, take your turn behind the wheels of steel and spin the choons of your choice for one week only. During your week you post a track a day under the following categories: MONDAY - the first record you ever bought (or downloaded if you are a child of the 00's). However embarrassing it may be. TUESDAY - your hottest record in the world right now. It better be good! WEDNESDAY - a guilty pleasure. Because everyone loves a bit of cheese. THURSDAY - anything goes. Something spe…

    One for the music lovers! The idea is that one person inserts a line of lyrics to the chorus of a song and the other players have to try and guess which song (and band/singer) it is! However, before the answer can be revealed, at least 3 guesses need to be made and just like in 'Lie to Me', whoever guesses correctly can have their turn! Also, if the name of the song is included in the chorus, then this is censored with asterisks (*****), prior to the number of words in the song name. Right. Without further ado, I shall kick this off with a "fairly" easy one! "The more that you want it, the more that you need it, I know that you’ll be by my side. ** *** **** ** *** **…

    The rule of this game (if you can call it that) is simple - just state your favourite of any category of your choice! There's no limit to the number of categories you include, but just don't go mental and post 50 categories! Anyway, as an example, here's my lineup: Theme Park: Busch Gardens Tampa Bay Coaster: SheiKra Country: Spain Band: Oasis Song: 'In The Heat Of The Moment' by Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds Movie: 'Guardians of the Galaxy' TV Show: Friends Book (by series): 'Gone' by Michael Grant UK city: Portsmouth Ice Cream (by brand): Ben and Jerry's Restaurant: Nando's Article(s) of Clothing: Hoodie/Sunglasses (you don't say) That should be enough!

It's nearing Halloween and rather then plodding along to a scare attraction we should just scare each other here!
