Official Match Thread Season 38, Round 7: West Coast Wonders v Ophidian Old Boys at The Colosseum

[thewizardmelon]

I've got to 2am Friday morning to change their minds mate, the lunatics are running the asylum.

Is this appliance gate 2.0?

 

[thewizardmelon]

Its far too silly a place

What a pleasure seeing you in here Dinsdale. Sometimes a match thread is like putting lipstick on a pig, and other days Dins shows up

 

[Robertio]

Is this appliance gate 2.0?

Yes mate, also a bad decision but that's not for here.

Why does Harvey Manfrenjensenden get to cheat by riding a bike?

Harvs is the Full Back and stays in the qoal square so doesn't have to run as much

Because I'm fat, I'm fat you know it.

I used to work for a German company with operations in the States.

So you also pull the levers in the Old Boys bar?

We tolerated the 90s old man tech talk last week, time to switch it up

It was the '80s you whippersnapper. I got my first computer in 1981.

Some of us were first adopters of computers in early years high school maths lessons. in the late 70s, that were based on bits of rectangular cards you punched holes in to signify some form of binary code.

And moved onto being the PC SME's where we worked in the later 80's for mission critical work, whilst the official IT guys still pissed around with mainframes only.

[Giant YoYo]

You don’t want it to be long?

Don’t worry, Sunday is mostly painless.

Ohh goody. Sounds promising.

I suggest looking to the leaders at the club and pointing the fingers there. That usually works well

Sounds like a good way to go on a brief holiday from playing.

Another lovely thing happened yesterday, I was having withdrawal symptoms from not buying anything for a few weeks, no new vises being delivered, no new tools to work on my vises, no nothing not even anything of interest for me to buy.

Speaking of last night, a unicorn came up on fb marketplace. A high precision Italian watchmaker's lathe with all the fruit. Built like a brick shithouse, still had the original hand scraping marks on the bed. $1000. I call it a unicorn because bargains like that only come up every 4-5 years. And if I hadn't just downsized from my factory to a crammed-to-the-ceiling single garage...
