  • Why is it that scrotey lads in trakkie bottoms always have their hands down their front playing with their balls? Is it some kind of inner city mating ritual to indicate to the local bikes that they are ready to breed?

    Agree with this entirely. One hand down their pants and the other clutxhing a can of superstrength lager.

    OK, so this hot weather has made me realise that I don't actually have a decent array of summer clothes to wear (probably because we don't usually get nice summers and I am a stone heavier than last year), so this week I am going out shopping to put this right. As I understand it, having just read the thread, the rules are:

    * Must have flesh coloured undies
    * No boob tubes
    * No leggings
    * No white trousers
    * No flip flops
    * No shorts

    If I've missed anything, please remind me. Deadline is tomorrow!
    Spend less now, work less later.

    If you have a large and wobbly backside, avoid tight trousers of an elastic nature worn with knickers two sizes two small for you, lest you transform yourself into another specimen of the amazing six buttocked beast.

    Thanks for this. As my backside is larger and wobblier than I would like, I will take your comments into account. Will also remember to look in the mirror at all angles.

  • I concur. If they've got the self-confidence to flaunt their bare flesh then good luck to them. I'd rather see that than folk sweltering under layers of clothing because they're too scared to show their bodies. Honestly, some people's irrational hatred of anybody that dares to be overweight is ridiculous.

    I like this comment.

    I read the first page and was (not) surprised to see a load of shallow comments about overweight people.

    Someone said that fat people will never be attractive...well sorry that's simply not true.

    Some people will be attracted to the larger person, and turned off by skinny minnies, and vice versa.

    Diversity is good.

    In Belgium, we where honked at relentlessly for cycling (in the countryside as well) without shirts on. It appears they don't tolerate that sort of behaviour, even if it's 30 degrees and you're on a bike ride through the fields.

    Maybe you're just 'hot' and too modest to realise it.

    it was the sign on the back of the bike saying 'Honk if you want to go faster!'

    Indeed. I often holiday in Greece and last week as always, there were no bare breasted ladies on the beach. Ah well..perhaps next time :)
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

    Recently one of my friends posted something on facebook along the lines of:

    "With all the hot weather recently, may I remind people to dress for your size, not the size you want to be"
    :exclamatiTo the internet.. I need to complain about something!
