Not much to be joyous about at the moment but, to cheer myself up today, I have put some of our most esteemed posters against the fictional characters that they make me think of- some of you youngsters might have to get on Google.

Lord Duckhunter = Alf Garnett, Till Death Us Do Part

Weston SS = Trigger, Only Fools and Horses

AlexLaw76 = Constable Savage, Not The 9 O’Clock News

CB Fry = Malcolm Tucker, The Thick Of It

hypochondriac = the gormless, spotty character on his own avatar

Turkish = Jay Cartwright, The Inbetweeners 

Me? I’m going for Wolfie Smith, Citizen Smith

😉

 

That! That right there is why you are, without a shadow of doubt, the greatest wind up on the innernetz.

Ah,bless you Weston, but there are many others far more worthy of that accolade.

And, to quote the late, great Dame Edna Everage, “If you can’t laugh at yourself, you might be missing the joke of the century”. 😘

talking of which this is one of my favourite characters ever. Some of the drips on here could do with this sort of therapy.

😂😂 

Brilliant character, and a cracking sketch.

There probably isn’t much to be happy about when you spend your day listening to radio phone ins, reading the Guardian, spending hours scrolling the internet to prove if Jews are a race or not but here are some great tips or hacks as the cool kids say to help you. Thanks me later

The new atrium / entrance at Blackpool Victoria Hospital, which looks more like an airport than a hospital. It is welcoming, bright, and contains a COSTA COFFEE, an M&S food outlet, a WH Smith's, obviously a pharmacy.........and less obviously - a travel agency.

The pedant in me needs to take issue with 8 billion people ‘doing well in life’

The last set of mindfulness things I listened to, all began with "As long as you are breathing, there's more right with you than wrong with you." Which I took issue with, my mild grumpiness ruining the start of every session. 🙂

Regarding number 10; The Russian Admiral Rozhestvensky, who lost the battle of Tsushima during the Russo-Japanese war, woke up one morning and read his own obituary.

Sadly, only a day after reading this, and realising he should be very careful, he accidentally fell from a window, being poisoned on the way down.

Those impromptu barbeque pool parties at Michael Barrymore's place were notoriously full-on!

Seeing Kyren Wilson's young son hugging his dad and shouting "World Champion! Get in there!"

Yeah, great moment. Also good to see Jak Jones making a game of it after going 7-1 down in the first session.

'A judge in the US state of Michigan was surprised when a defendant appeared for his remote court hearing while behind the wheel.

Corey Harris, who is charged with driving on a suspended licence, joined the call from a moving car.'

Do you think he drove to the jail later?

You wouldn't put it past him! Credit to his lawyer for making a cheeky adjournment application.

trolling sales people particularly recruitment consultants. I am inundated with messages from them on linkedin saying they are different to everyone else and the perfect recruitment partner for my company. the most recent one was a guy who absolutely knew loads about my company and were the perfect partner for us as they were based in Leeds and work with the best people in the region. My reply of "well you dont know much about us and wont be very busy with us then as out of 4000 employees globally only 2 of us are based in Yorkshire" he's yet to respond. lol

Fuck me SOG this thread is about joy and you have to bring your mate Tommy Robinson into it. 

His arrest for illegal immigration brings me great joy. What else can I say? Maybe I need to start a karma thread?
