The last word thread

[businessfunding]

Just you be careful that they don't take more than an armful.

Ha ha - I was so tempted to quote it but wimped out

 

[vvaannmmaann]

Just think there are 20 and 30 year olds that have no idea what we are talking about.

That's how sirearl must feel all of the time

 

[vvaannmmaann]

I still cannot decide about him.
There is a fine line between genius and lunacy.

 

[businessfunding]

I mostly picture him chuckling to himself when he throws fireworks.

Occasionally I worry that he is serious

 

[simon field]

Ok, what's happening in here then?

It does look like you'll get the last word, as you said when you named the thread.

 

[vvaannmmaann]

Oh I wouldn't say that.

 

[simon field]

Is it too early in the thread to say it may be a challenger to Knowing the Mind of You Know Who?

In terms of longevity, if not substance?

 

[Leather Briefcase Company]

Zyxt is listed as the last word in the online Oxford English Dictionary, an obsolete Kentish word that is the second singular indicative present form of the verb see.

ZYXT to the lot of you!

 

[Nuno]

Doesn't work if you have to explain it.

 

[Leather Briefcase Company]

Explain what?

 

[Nuno]

If you have to ask....

 

[simon field]

It's a good one to remember when I next play scrabble, cheers!

 

[vvaannmmaann]

Explain what?

You know - it !

 

[Jennie Rich]

Zyxt is listed as the last word in the online Oxford English Dictionary, an obsolete Kentish word that is the second singular indicative present form of the verb see.

ZYXT to the lot of you!

Wow! You learn something new every day.

 

[vvaannmmaann]

When did we stop using Middle English?

 

[simon field]

Withinne a thousand yeer, and wordes tho.

 

[vvaannmmaann]

Withinne a thousand yeer, and wordes tho.

You are speaking through your botme.

 

[businessfunding]

It's been a good thread whilst I was away in Prague.

 

[simon field]

It's been a good thread whilst I was away in Prague.

Is the beer still cheap there?

 

[kulture]

Ok, food for thought, barring a moderator cheating and locking the thread, then by definition the thread will never have a last word. This is because no-one will be able to confirm that it will always be the last word. To have the last word implies no future.

 

[MikeJ]

On that basis, Earl should have the last word.

He's been saying we've no future for years.

 

[kulture]

Can you imagine Earl ever getting the last word.

 

[simon field]

Some things are really hard to do, I've noticed.

 

[businessfunding]

I've made a rod for my own back here, haven't I?

 

[vvaannmmaann]

Only if you are Emu.

 

[simon field]

I'm sure I started a thread about where vvaannmmaann won this thread, but I've lost it and he hasn't!

He didn't at the time, but he almost went on to do so now (then).

He hasn't won, I mean. I mean I lost the thread, he has neither won this thread, nor has he lost the thread that I started about him winning this thread. I have.

Which he hasn't. He may yet though. I've lost it (the plot).

I'm not doing this to win, I'm doing it because I've lost (the other thread)

 

[vvaannmmaann]

Ok Thanks for clearing that up.

PS I have found the other thread you are refering to.I have won that one,and have every confidence I shall win this one as well.

 

[businessfunding]

It isn't about the winning, it's about taking part

And I intend to take part until you give up

 

[Gillie]

Surely though - a woman always has the last word??

 

[vvaannmmaann]

Normally that is the case.
However behind the safety of my keyboard I feel safe to challenge your suggestion.

 

[Gillie]

Feeling secure are we?


Mwhahahaha you know full well the outcome of this!!

 

[simon field]

One by one we will all die.

There can be only one!

 

[vvaannmmaann]

Feeling secure are we?


Mwhahahaha you know full well the outcome of this!!

If it is anything like our house - then sadly I do.

 

[JMaddox]

haha no body wants to give up...

 

[simon field]

Kickstart btm has lost!

 

[businessfunding]

Kickstart btm has lost!

Lost what?

Marbles?

Virginity?

Sense of proportion?

Xx

 

[Gillie]

Kickstart btm has lost!

Would you like a wooden spoon with that smugness??

 

[vvaannmmaann]

Not yet he hasn't.

 

[businessfunding]

There is life in the old dog yet..
