That arranging to go out for a night with a group of girls involves endless hassle - putting money in a kitty, talking outfits and transport arrangement - contrasting rather badly to getting pissed with blokes, where you just haul up at a bar and get stuck in.
Much more fun, I can't cope with all this dressing up, and splitting the bill stuff. What's wrong with a good old chorus of "Whose round is it?"

You know how that happened... .....time zone issues - we can't ALL be awake 24/7, though it sometimes feels like it
And the perpetrator was banned......as would be any similar perpetrators .....

24/7?! Look, most people are awake for 16 hours and timezone overlapping means there MUST be worldwide cum-shot coverage. Especially given the salary the average moderator is paid.

Think of the children, should a Mod getting pissed on Baileys and oversleeping cause this level of trauma?

I'm still haunted by those images ... the horror, the horror ...

I know it all seems very dirty old pervert-ish but the neighbour was laying on the pitched roof that juts out in such a way that it was in full and unavoidable view of our lounge. I turned on the TV and if I looked hard at it I could see her in it's reflection. I went to the kitchen for a stiff drink and as I passed the window there she was rubbing cream into them. Turned towards the kitchen cabinet for the glass and there she was in the cabinet door's reflection. ...It's just not fair I tell ya.

Under other circumstances it's definately naughty and nice but with a suspicious wife, two teenage sons who also didn't know which way to look, I would rather she wobbled her tits at the other neighbours.

If she does it tomorrow, I'll definately be out there with my camera - if only to embarrass her off the roof.

From what I remember (and I might be wrong) it was in one of the forums with all the Mods based in the US. So any reports would've gone to them and it was night-time their end. The Aus Mods were (mainly) awake but wouldn't have seen the reports and couldn't have removed it even if they HAD seen it. And I was on nights so thought I ought to sleep for a bit during the day hence it sat there till I got up. I'm just surprised it doesn't happen more often to be honest!

I had a landlady once who used to sunbathe topless in the back garden. She stopped after my boyfriend (once he'd had a good eyeful himself) pointed out that we were on a bus route and they used double deckers, so everyone on the top deck could see her assets as they went past

I can understand how it could be awkward under those conditions, I do need photographic proof to verify the level of my concern though

I once went shirtless in my backyard and next door thought a painfully pale alien had landed so ...

Sleep?! Are you mad woman? Don't you realise the responsibility you have here? Just mainline the Red Bulls and get onto it. Kerchrist, you think that warning the State about potentially fatal Natural Disasters is enough to compensate for not deleting every borderline dodgy post?

I do try and avoid the sleep thing whenever possible, I'm sure its not good for my health And it is a very difficult decision sometimes - defend the delicate minds of BE posters, or defend the State against disaster and chaos...........its a close run thing at times

I'd choose chucking a sickie and a decent book with a glass of something that isn't approved by the government
