@divegeester saidYou're like a weird uncle we humour at family BBQs.
Despite all the vitriol and ‘clashes of clans’ I have to say that I really do like you guys. All of you.
Well, in an online disinhibited sort of way.
@ghost-of-a-duke saidFair.
Not all posts should be taken literally/seriously.
This isn't the SF.
But I am actually a weird uncle at bbqs in real life, so I was curious.
@divegeester
There are two kinds of RHP posters for me. There are those that I'd be interested in meeting for a drink and a bite to eat if they were in my city. And there are those I wouldn't bother to meet up with even if I saw them strolling past my house.

@fmf said“Strolling PAST your house”. Perhaps they knew you lived there.🤔

@fmf saidonce upon a time
I saw them strolling past my house.
an olde man was sitting on his front porch
a young lad came down the road, pretending to juggle two rolls of duck tape
the olde man hollared, "hey you there, lad! where you going with that duck tape?"
and the lad answered, "i'm going down to the pond and catch me some ducks"
the olde man sneered, "foolish lad! you cain't catch ducks with duck tape!"
the lad continued down the road, and a half hour later came back up with four mallards all neatly wrapped in duck tape
the olde man groused and harrumphed
the next day the olde man was sitting on his front porch when the same lad came sauntering by and this time he had a roll of chicken wire
(side note, i think more folks should saunter on more occasions)
the olde man hollared, "you there, lad! where you going with that chicken wire?"
the lad replied respectfully, "well sir, i'm gonna go fetch me some chickens"
the olde man just shook his head is disbelief
but a hour later the lad came down the road with 8 or 9 chickens all wrapped up in chicken wire
now the olde man was bemused
the next morning, the young lad came down the road playing with a stick
the olde man hollared, "you there lad! where you going with that stick?"
"well sir, this is a pussy willow"
the olde man said, "hang on, i'll get my hat"

@the-gravedigger saidWe get BBC Radio 5's "Test Match Special for overseas listeners" live via YouTube.
It's the only house in Tanjung Priok where cricket is on the radio.
@divegeester saidYou're a snitch,... a few of you are.

Now we have 2 of them creating thread after thread to fill the void of the people who left because about 5 of you run to the admins every time you see an opportunity to snitch.
Then you have the gall to say it's not supposed to be serious here 🙄
