MilitantDogOwner Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Different bait, same goal. Different day different shit, Tshirt owner. Are you using some osrt of random gibberish generator? Fantastic! You spotted a mistype. Well done you. Given the context, an intelligent poster would have proof-read his offering. Given the context, does it matter? Now the thread will devolve into a raid by the spelling/grammar police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolley Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Exactly. It was the context that made it so good. His gibberish generator is every bit as good as the other fella. Just made me smile. Don't take it to heart so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can't find a boat, please board a plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many stay on topic for very long so appreciation to the visitor thanking us all for our hospitality. Hopefully he will have many more enjoyable trips to the Island.

Merkin Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Okay, I know Fly and Manx aren't the most reliable ; If there are no planes available, you can all stay but i need everyone to say ringy three times, pat their heads and whistle colonel bogey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freggyragh Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Just a quick post to thank you all for the very warm welcome that us lot visiting your beautiful Island received during TT fortnight Although I have been coming to the TT for 11 years now this was my first visit as a footpassanger, I got to sample your public transport for the first time and what a pleasant experience that was We are already booked to come across for TT2012 thank you again Best wishes. See you next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sausage Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 A recent facebook group vote/discussion type thingy was sent to me. It was entitled 'Should the Isle of Man TT be banned' The response when I checked a few days ago was around 3500 who said No and around 150 who said yes. In the absence of any other stats (please provide if you have them) I would suggest this is a fairly decent sized sample. Its facebook users so not necessarily all 'pro tt' brigade. From these results I would say that its a reasonable sound assumption that those in favour of the TT far outweigh those who dont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maltese_Falcon Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I doubt ALL manx residents would have quite such open arms for someone who finds cyclists "clueless gay boys on pushbikes", as you thus so eloquently describe here, seventh post down. Cycling's very popular on the Isle of Man you know. What a moron.. or are you female... bringing the past up. Get over yourself The biker was thanking the manx public....That includes you.

ballaughbiker Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Twas just my opinion (y'know what forums are for) based on decade after decade after decade of TTs. TT causes me lots of inconvenience and I don't watch the bike racing so how does that make me pro-TT? I have no business that profits from it either. Do you *have* to be either anti or pro, black or white, hot or cold etc? Do yous two (maybe 3) really have no capacity whatsoever to think past this simple concept or is it just too inconvenient for your over simplified points? Could you, just for a second, consider that it is just possible that the majority accept it as part of island life with a few of those being pro or very pro-TT and some anti or very anti? My opinion is that this is the real situation and the antis would therefore be in a minority. If you don't agree, fine but aren't you just a trifle arrogant to say I'm wrong as you don't appear to have any evidence either. If you have, then let's hear it! Just imagine spending thousands to get here, a thousand or so when you eventually do and to use up all your annual leave to view the sport you love and then read all this spiteful bile from a minority on here?

I am no fan of the Ballaughbiker as basically he talks a lot of of middle class crap.However his views of the TT are worth listening to.I have lived here man and boy and have never heard any local say that the TT should be banned.
