True Colours

So I suppose it finally had to happen.

So... Can members of the board guess which member of the board threatened to smash a glass in my face, only then to chicken out of doing it, and then to try and play best friends?

One Pint to whoever can guess*

*People who guess must not have been within a twenty mile radius of tonights Kraftwerk gig.

FFS Liam let it drop. You WERE being a cock. And you were lucky that scrote didn't have a gun or a blade on him.

Insulting somebody's bird isn't on either.

Sometimes you have to question why people have a go...

For the ever important record, i made a comment towards a criminal trying to sell us stolen goods. This was greeted by a member of the board repeatedly threatening to smash a glass in my face.

Nice.

Top gig then?

Oooh.. what was he selling?.. and more importantly, how much?

Hmmm... Criminal?... Surely innocent until proven guilty?

Interestingly, its an offence to buy suspected stolen goods off an individual, but said individual is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. A bit of a legal conflict there, no?

A boxed Swiss Watch (RRP £129) for £20.

If it was a Casio Digital I'd have snatched his arm off.

The gig was fantastic, the only arguments amongst ourselves were before and after.

so liam , wanted to be starting something with a smooth criminal who told him to beat it before things got Bad,,wow Dangerous.

they just dont care about us.

And Liam, when someone decides NOT to give you a free ticket to some cosmetic surgery, that you could possibly do with (y'know, to remove the perpetually miserably expression, that sort of thing), it is NOT wise to then berate them for doing so.......it's a bit like a judge acquiting you of a crime you're guilty of, and you scratching his merc on the way out of court.

As my mate Tony always says ‘if you go around asking for a fight you’d better be prepared to have a fight’.

Because I was quite amazingly pissed.

Anyway, clearly not one of the nicest people around. Say what you want about me, but i've never threatened anyone with any kind of violence. This person did it repeatedly. Over and over again. So it wasnt like it was a slip of the tongue.

I wonder what people would think if he actually did it?

I'm fillin' up 'ere Jarvo...! :passmethehankysmilie:

As I've said, I made a flippant comment to a criminal trying to sell dodgy gear. For this, I was greeted with repeated threats of having a glass smashed in my face. So yeah, I would consider myself blameless in this situation.

Now, if he'd actually done it, i'd be in hospital, witha reasonable chance my career would be fucked. He'd be in a cell. Not nice, is it?

Me and Dave were actually talking about another person who used to post here who made threats of violence in person, i dont think he was ever considered a 'nicer' bloke again, was he?

I lost my beloved Casio last week :(

(Might change my user name to 'thon orddige bint', thanks Steve)

Anyway, back to the subject, lets hope there will be no grudges held, as paths will inevitably be crossed.

It happened.

Get over it.

So, I better make a guess.

Fiver on Banshee, I can't imagine anyone getting a rise out of him, but I can imagine Liam gettin a rise out of a stone/leaf/slug.

And you're most welcome to the username :D When I'm a star, there will be a tagline in the credits of all my blockbusters "Mr Campbell's timepieces supplied by Casio"

no such ruckus in the pasty queue, though why there was a pasty stall is beyond me.

being a bit frivolous there I know, but then again the persona and pretty much the name I use on here ( offline I tend to be called Macca or GazMac )is exactly the same as it is when I meet any of you folk.

Liam I first met you at the Gretton gig meet up with Shug n Rocket etc, and I guess the way you posted then was pretty much the same as how you were on that day.

by liverpool pops, it was a quick hello

by yesterday I had no real connection to your various musings etc so I neither sought or avoided your company, again it would have been a civil hello or a brief chat and away to our respective lives.

but, and I know I am basing this on the posts on here, I am not at all surprised someone has taken issue with you on a physical basis.

throw alcholol into the mix and the memories of some of your postings and maybe the fella had heard and read enough.

I remember the first time I read the term KEYBOARD WARRIOR, I think it was Jarvo coined it though not in connection with you at the time I must add

I thought how unstuck would such a fellow come when he met his peers at a gig?

and now I have the answer,

still best wishes and all that but may I suggest you show this thread to your pupils and ask them to guess the age of the anonymous 'Teacher'

You really hide behind societies laws dontcha? One of these days you'll find someone that doesn't care two shites for those laws and lays you out flat; then you'll realize those laws are all but a thin facade of the real-world.

Too bad whoever it was didn't do it, you would have been better off and smarter as a result... since he backed down your still the ball-less cunt like always.

I think the hottest day Manchester has ever seen went to everyone's head yesterday.

Fucking bargain! bloke must have been desperate at that price. By the way, very,very naughty to threaten to glass someone,can often leave permanent damage in more ways than you could imagine. Liam may well have been acting the dick but a glassing. Now lets see if you can all play nicely at the Freebass gigs!!!

I wasn't at last night's momentous event, but as I understand it:

a) Glassing someone is a horrible violent act which can leave people badly scarred, psychologically and emotionally traumatized and - if you hit the right artery - it can even cause death.

b) Threatening to glass someone isn't very nice, but it doesn't leave any damage. Though it does make for a half-decent internet anecdote.

c) The surreal idea of someone getting 'glassed' at a Kraftwerk gig is surely the basis of a really good joke and/or comedy sketch. I expect it to crop up in the next series of "Peep Show" or somesuch.

Many thanks, and best wishes.

For the record, coversation went like this:

Person X (no one has yet claimed their pint, so I'd hate to ruin the contest): "If you dont shut up, i'll smash this glass in your face,"

Me: "You havent got the balls to do it"

repeat about seven or eight times.

And in the end, said person didnt have the balls to do it.

So I guess there is your answer.

gosh, you're so brave facing down a fella with a glass seven or maybe even eight times. May I be the first on these boards to give you that recognition/kudos/whatever it is you seek, well done sir. meself I'd probably have fucked off, almost fifty now and aware of me own mortality etc, well I deffo would have fooked off if the fella was a total stranger, if however he was known to me..... hang on I may have stayed... packed pub, with friends and fellow nools, fella probably not known for his violence, fella not the sort who'd want to spend time in the big house... hmmm, maybe I would have taken a calculated risk on not being glassed.

no I'd have fooked off, almost fifty now and aware of me own ability to look an even bigger cunt, yeah I think I'd have changed me pub.

other business re:your above post

the answer I had arrived at however is slightly different, I figured there'd be some mild altercation with the potential to escalate into serious violence, however the violence would never occur due to the fact that despite on and offline spouting of bollox most people would wait for the red mist to dissipate, put the glass down and think the poor cunt's got enough problems.

still if you prefer your answer, fair do's

thanks for qouting me in full though and answering part of it

and as for MY suggested contest wherein your pupils have to guess the age of the anonymous 'teacher' how's that coming along

I've simply stated the facts of what happened. I've not suggested any answer/explanation/defence of what happened. I'll re-iterate again that I was repeatedly threatened to have a glass smashed in my face because of a comment I made to a guy trying to sell dodgy gear. I could maybe understand if the guy who I made the comment to had a go back, but the person sat opposite me? Nah.

Of course, I'm not surprised, considering the person in question spent a substantial amount of time in Wolfsburg trying to bury me to anyone who would listen (Which, thankfully, was pretty much nobody). Why? I dont know.

Also, all my pupils know I'm twenty five. I dont see what that has to do with anything.

I really like your Daily Fail style envoking of the word "criminal", as if you've never broken a single law in your entire life.

And I assume this chap was convicted by a jury of his peers in order to attract this label.

Reading this thread makes me imagine Liam, adorned with a cock-ring, "4 Real" etched into his gut with a broken pint glass, dancing naked to Phil Collins' cover of "True Colours".

It's really quite vivid. I can't be the only one, right?

The Teacher wrote: So I suppose it finally had to happen.

One Pint to whoever can guess*

*People who guess must not have been within a twenty mile radius of tonights Kraftwerk gig.

So, let's get a couple of things straight, yeah? Okay then.

Firstly, smashing you in the face was said, once. No mention of glassing anyone happened, PompeyOrder will verify this.

Next, you were repeatedly told to "shut your f*cking mouth", you should take heed of this, history shows it just gets you into trouble.

Thirdly, I wouldn't condider polite conversation before the incident to consent as trying to be best friends afterwards, no. I'd also consider offering to shake someone's hand after such an altercation whilst in the company of 7 other 'friends' as being adult and mature about the situation.

To come online and post this an hour after the gig has finished just proves what a sad, pathetic loser you really are Liam. It's nothing anyone didn't already know already though.

Now we have the facts, the rest of this thread is pretty much irrelevant I'd say.

I'm not concerned about being excluded from our NOOL social group, or infact on here Liam. Your track record speaks for itself, this thread has only succeeded to enforce this.

Now, leave me alone, I've got old people's shopping to do and charity work in Africa to organise.

The Teacher wrote: So I suppose it finally had to happen.

where is the brunskwick ? kept getting texts off mates last year before footie saying they were in said pub never found it.

Isn't it about time we called time on this little dispute?

There's more important stuff to read out there surely?

Aren't the glasses made of plastic at concerts?

You need to study at the feet of sensei Bansheeman.....He can do 0-fucked in about 25 mins, it's really impressive, and all the more so because he doesn't end up face down after an hour like most people do when they go for the get-fucked-fast approach.

o doctor steve your simply assuming this due to the fact that i had to catch a bus back to accrington at 11 p.m hence i had to hurry my regular amounts of double dark rums down in a very short segment of time.i am going to come over there to you someday and take my time.then the night will really get very long and eventful !!

It was a pleasure to see a master at work good sir. Anyone can get bladdered in half an hour, but it takes a special person to do that, and still be dancing 3 hours later.

Sadly, I think my drinking days are over. Had a tin of pear cider a couple of months ago.....it got me wasted, it's like being 14 again. Maybe once they cut some bits outta me, I can re-train.....but the idea of learning to drink again, while suffering from adult level hangovers does NOT appeal to me, life was much better when I was 20, could drink my own body weight in Old E, and be bright eyed and bushy tailed (and yes, still wankered) at 8am the next day.

I think I feel the same. I had a pint of Heineken (they left me no choice) on Thursday and had problems with my artificial horizon gauge and compass for two hours... On Friday, I had the feeling all my body was on strike.

I don't know about the situation but if you find that you tend to get in confrontations in bars, it's usually cause you are looking for confrontations. Bars are for having fun or getting depressed.

All ttue if you drink in nice bars. There's a few bars round these parts where ariving washed and not dressed in rags is considered offensive enough to the usual clientelle, to get your fuck kicked right in.

Jiphy....yup, but you're OK as long as the problems don't spread to the landing gear causing a sudden loss of altitude (usually followed by the sound of your chin grinding into ground).

Only in Britain is it nigh on impossible to get a coffee after 11.30pm. Realistically your best bet is a BP garage.

So you're saying Somalia has better all night coffee than Engerland?

The world must be a much more interesting place when viewed from up your arse.

Having returned from Kampala, Uganda just three weeks ago I can confirm that this is in fact BULLSHIT. Even the business centre in my 'posh' hotel only had dial-up connections. Funnily enough broadband penetration isn't that high in a country where over half the population survive on less than 1 USD per day. Idiot.

So why not cash in on it and get down there if its so great?

oh, wait... maybe cause its not.

and Jeffari, what's the difference between Ravi's rantings and Liam's? They are both center and scream:

Gay as thread.

Except for the Casio digital watches mention,which are cool as a bastard... Whisper on the cobbles is,glass every fucker and team those Digital watches up with Donkey Jackets.

The miners united,will never be divided

I do really wear a digi Casio,and like it! The rest is Autumn fashion foresight...Get on it.

Obviously everything on this thread is purely subjective, and so useless, evidence, with the exception of Reg's assertion that if you want to find a really kick ass internet cafe with the best Java roast at 4am, you better be in a flavella or up a treehouse in papua new guinea or on the Mongolian steppe.
