I've just ordered one of those new fangled Nike+ chip things that go in your trainers and tell your iPod how crap at running you are. Looking forward to getting amongst it when it arrives. Anyone got any experience of these things?

Yes. And it's not funny. Agreed, within reason.

I take your point Clarry and, of course, you're right. The old Winterval banning Christmas one is a classic. But... ...the Irish do get St Patricks day off. It's a public holiday accross all of Ireland. My ex's N.I family used to give me some right stick about it. The fact that this kind of thing upsets people to the point of voting for fascists speaks volumes for the intellect of the people putting their ticks in the boxes.

True Mike, but a proper pasting on national TV is bound to filter down even to the pond life.

Well said Richard. Makes me feel sick to be honest. Hopefully the exposure will show these fascist idiots up enough to put people off ever voting for them again. Get them on QT I say.

Should have given up after Astral weeks (Van and You). And it's more like 40 years.... Not even a fan of Moondance Blandy?

There's only one Van the Man, and he ain't no fretboard-twiddling, Jacko-collaborating, poodle-rock ponce. But is he a Guilty Pleasure, though? Nah. All pleasure no guilt. Had Astral Weeks on in the car this morning. Marvellous. Well, yes. A contender for Greatest Album Of All Time without a doubt. But he's been churning out identikit Rent-A-Van albums for about 20 years, now, the miserable old git. I gave up after "Enlightenment" (but I should really have given up after "Inarticulate Speech"). Oh I dunno. Back On Top is a cracker. But yeah, they do all sound the same. Good job that sound is a great one innit?

I can't work out whether it's a good thing for a band to have 0 in this poll or not.

Leppard for me. Hysteria is a belter. And I don't feel guilty about it.

Crisp. And orrible.

So a large number of people on this site stand to wipe their arse and sit to have a piss. Astonishing

Nor wearing white boxers shorts I dare say.

easier access to buttock crevass? when sitting, surely you have to move off the seat slighty, so you can physically get your hand up your arse to wipe your bum? standing and then semi squatting is just a natural extension of this: it give you more room to maneouvre. Ah, but the slight movement off the seat is only done with one buttock, avoiding the 'clamping' issue.

All standers are closet paedoes then! Can I be both please? Why? Do you fancy Jeanette Kranky ?!!! She's an old woman. Making him neither, not both. Doesn't she dress as a young boy? Ah yes, but then she is Jimmy. Jeanette is all woman :nod:

I guess the question should be changed then to, How many of us had mothers who didn't understand the effect on the buttocks, and anything remaining between them, when standing up?

It seems that the standers, stand up, and then adopt a crouched postion so that everything is presented as if they were sitting down. Why bother getting up then?

Yes. As an adult human I found it to be no problem to adjust my sitting technique, raising the buttocks slightly higher than normal before going in.

I'm not sure how you are anatomically, or technique wise, but as a sitter I can honestly say this has never happened to me, nor can I see how it might.

Eh??? When it looks like you can wipe no more, just spit on some bog roll and have one last swoop. Youd be surprised what comes up. Its not as if its disgusting. If you don't you end up with skid marks in the underwear! I've become a recent exponent of this in the last year or so. What a revelation.

Indeed. Bog roll is used too mind, not just the hand.

As do you Chris. I thought you went for sinks in women's toilets though? Or is that just at work? :winkold:
