APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Any one who needs to apologies to anyone else is welcome here...may I begin....

Sorry Bazz - didn't mean to bite off your head - please in future would you explain in clear terms what you didn't like or agree with from what I say/said.

Mrs HP Mouse.

Now doesn't that feel better :wub:

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Nobody needs to apologise to Bazz. Do they Bazz? He takes it all in his stride,
he has to with some of his posts! ;)

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Well I think you need to aplogize to him right now for not spelling his name with the requisite numbers of "z"s.

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

I apologise to Mrs McCabe - primary school teacher for the leaving class of 1982, for nicking all that stationery from the cupboard.

In my defence I did put it to good use at highschool but I've been haunted by my wanton act of pre-teenage larceny ever since.

So I'm sorry. :o


<I feel so much better now>

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

While I'm here, I'd like to apologize to rae for hounding him all through the forums pointing out that, as a ManUre supporter, he's a smug old northern git.


Oh, hang on...

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

I really don't get why everyone seems to have a go at bazzz.

There are so many posts where people complain that they miss the British sense of humour. Intelligent and witty put downs are an essential component of British humour. It is what makes shows from Blackadder to Have I Got News For You so very funny.

bazzz is very good at it. Why do we all get upset so quickly?

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Id like to apologise to my OH for not ironing his shirts, not having diner ready, not cleaning the house again today and not leaving my credit cards at home when i went out shopping, ;)

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Humour doesn't translate well to internet fora like this. Facial expressions, setting and context are key parts of all humour and without them it often just appears to be abuse. Sad but true.

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

One apology a day is enough - don't push it. :p

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Yea? Tell that to P.G. Wodehouse.

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Fair point but I would argue that Wodehouse needed more than a paragraph to establish characters and their context. I wouldn't think there are many single paragraphs that would be funny if read in isolation, unless you already new the characters involved.

Tom

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

A very Freudian typo there, Tom.

You wrote "new the character" instead of what you meant. That's the point here, characters like bazzz are not new (any more); what's more his style (admittedly abrasive at times) is thoroughly consistent. If really "new" characters get upset, then it's largely because of their "newness" leading to wrong assumptions about intent on the basis of "one or two paragraphs"; rather than on the "collected works" of regular posters.

Just quibbling of course, but that's why the forum remains fun for some of us older lags.

Oh. And I apologize of course. :D

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

I've not noticed anyone having a go apart from that boxer guy who threatened to punch my teeth out. And to be fair, I was quite rude to him.

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Am I forgiven then - especially as I started this thread in your honour???

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Don't push it :rofl::rofl:

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

shhhhhhhhhhhh - I'm just waiting for the cauliflower to cook :sneaky:

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

I apologise for making you answer me, go see to the cauli it smells like ........ if it boils over :eek:

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Pleasure to speak with you my love...I love that accent

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Diolch yn fawr

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

the only one I remember is rude - I'll pm you

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

:o I feel shame :)

I am quite happy with a good quibble now and again:thumbup:.

I was not referring to Bazzz particularly only the phenomena of humour on boards like this, given the turnover of members and topics its unlikely many will be here long enough or often enough to figure out the regulars. Its more likely that they will look at posts in isolation and avoid those topics or posters that they feel uncomfortable with.

I am and have been a member on many fora with hugely varying subjects but the common theme is of people not getting other peoples attempts at humour. It is the nature of the beast.

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

To paraphrase John Cleese in conversation with Muggeridge (sp?): "Chartres? hmm, no, not a very funny building"

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Sorry Novo you've lost me now, don't get the reference :thumbdown:

Ok Google is my friend. unfortunately, I'm one of those people that just doesn't thinks Monty Python is remotely funny. It may be a generational thing. Then again maybe its just me :-)

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Monty Python is hilarious almost throughout. I'm 23. a/s/l? ;)

Making other people look stupid almost always makes the rest of us feel bigger, and is often tearfully funny but nearly never very kind. But it would be boring if everyone was nice.

I'll continue to make my apologies via PM. Their number and the often drunken state they're made in are not for public consumption.

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

i would like an apology from the cafe that gave me a dodgy sandwich today
after throwing up all afternoon :curse:i will not apologise for the things i will say the next time i pass the door :curse: but then who cares only 30 days to go til i leave:eek: i will just contact enviromental health

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Is it tomorrow you go for your visit, hope it all goes well :thumbsup:
will PM you later

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

He loves it,and so do we.Sometimes it does translate badly for the newbies
but if they stay on long enough they'll get it and forgive him.

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

yes its tomorrow but still throwing up:( should be a great flight

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

I'm not sure I still get it - but I think there are 2 bazzz's, one who comes up with (very funny and incredibly witty though it pains me to say it cos he won't give a shit) sarcastic posts and then the other Bazzz that is very helpful when dealing with immigration questions.

I look at it this way - if its a serious question - he'll help if he can, if its a stupid question - by god you'll know to it, and when he's in the mood to wind someone up - there's a few of us on here that are easy pickings because we don't have the wit that he has or the time, energy or intelligence to put together a well thought out response / arguement.

Whatever way you look at it he's just another character on here that makes BE what it is - (tho have had to stop myself losing it at some comments and remember that "This is Bazzz and this is who he is")

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

accepted.

i'd like to for biting on the above thread and then taking my ball in and for jumping on anyone concerning a criminal law topic when their opinion is not bag 'em and flog 'em.

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

I've said it before, but I reckon he's got a sideline in writing the scripts for "House" .... :thumbup:

:rofl:

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Have a great time and don.t worry you will be fine :thumbsup:

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Yes your're exactly right,that's what I mean thank g*d for Bazzz.Love his humour.Best of British

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Can I apologise to the milkman on behalf of my OH, he didnt shut front door properly this morning - so while I was still in bed and milky camt to drop the milk, scooby went out to greet him.

Scooby does notl like the milkman!!

SORRY x:blink:

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

you have a milkman? How quaint.:thumbup:

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

I know - I like having the milk man - not in that sense obviously - and buy the milk from him even tho its more expensive, cos he delivers early - so If I have run out - always know there will be some there in the morning . . . . .:)

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

I think you should apologize for that comment.

Re: APOLOGY TO SIN BIN
 

Doesn't work when Scooby runs out though does it? What did you have today...2 white wet patches with broken glass?
