5th row, far right

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

He looks like the love child of Nicholas Brendon, and Dave Grohl.

Listen very carefully to me.

Put a full-page advert in every, and I do mean EVERY, newspaper, magazine and other circular quoting your question word-for-word.

Make sure to put a real contact address on there.

You'll get the response you're after. Sooner or later.

That reminds me.....I always wish WE would do a picture page with everyone's pics. Like the old one you guys have, except with the people that are around these days.


No one's named Ginger Minge, but you can call me Mike Hunt if that's what it takes to get it done.

I believe the inherent problem in this is that over in Sweden, nobody's a ginger anything. And even then they have their own term in Swedish I'm sure.

the funny thing is OPR, is that you have, what appears to be, a stuffed ginger cat in the background of that picture... ;)

Oooh... It would appear as if the term combines a very very dirty word concerning female genitalia, and dodgy behaviour, and likewise for the male counter-part. :sweat:

Can't believe I'm still here.

Usually by this point, I'll have had too much to drink and I'll start telling people that ginger people smell of piss...nah really...Hey, I don't mean to be rude, some of my best friends are gingers, but they do carry a bit of a, well, a piss-smell, you have to admit. And no amount of scrubbing will get rid of it. It's in the hair.

Well, it is a similar colour to the urea-rich first piss of the day. And as we all know from Monty Python and the Holy Grail, if something has similar attributes as something else, then they are made of the same thing.
