ShrimperZone's greatest posts - 2012

[Pubey]

Shamelessly stole this idea from another board.

If you feel a post is worthy of consideration as a 2012 great post, then quote it in here. At the end we could have a poll or something...

As everyone who played 'championship manager' (not the new versions) will know- 'long ball' and 'direct passing' are two very different options. For me it is clear that Luggy is still playing a 2002/03 version and has clicked on the latter.

Quim Monzó's The Enormity of the Tragedy.A comic,surrealistic novel about a man who wakes up with a permanent errection,is told he has just seven weeks to live and is murdered by his step-daughter.
Wonderful stuff.Monzó is easily Catalonia's finest fiction writer.

Great stuff.

Good stuff Naps. If you click 'Reply with Quote', and then copy it to here, it will retain the reference to the original post, which is handy if you want to read it in context.

 

[Berrichonne shrimper]

Any post from pubey because is is the internet hunter.
But naps choice was good also.

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

It wasnt last year, but does anyone else remember when true blue reviewed his man dildo on here? It was about a 1000 words long. That has to go in the top 10 of all time on SZ.

 

[Pubey]

If you can find it, post it (the post that is, not the dildo).

Not this year, but does anyone remember the poster who was having a huge argument with someone and mistakingly quoted himself, saying 'the writer of this post is a prick.' Priceless, just can't remember what thread it was in.

I mentioned that idea before but nothing seemed to come from it. Good shout Andy

This is such a pointless argument. Neil F's comments about not having had the chance to read Anthony Huttons report on reform is simply the best post ever.

Just a shame it was last year:smile:

No because Anthony Hutton did an investigation into actually salaries and pensions with the real figures. Bizzare idea i know.

Anthony Hutton was in Big Brother (I haven't read his study), but you perhaps mean John Hutton? I've looked through both his final and interim report again and there is no comment on the private/public sector pay gap. Please do let me know which page it is on.
