A thread which avoids the use of...

[cisamcgu]

A little bit of culture... a poem, perhaps ?

It was Moody Bill, from Liverpool, that caught the bicycle craze;
He gave away the good old horse that served him over the days;
He dressed himself with bicycle clothes, a gorgeous lycra glow;
He hurried off to shop, to buy a bicycle from the show;
But as he wheeled it through the door, with air of lordly pride,
A voice from the rear of the shop exclaimed, "But, are you able to ride?"

Is that the Street Level Rules, as laid out by Stovolt's?

I have, before this time, played a physical type of that game, called Bok. Players use the items atop a pub table (glasses, ashtray etc), they move them about the table with moves similar to those of chess, up to a status quo at which a player is able to shout "bok!". Games may last for hours. Outsiders attempt desperately to decipher the rules, but of course, they are fictitious.

This is a great thread!! What is it about? Is it still about how you sidestep particular letters? Or have we moved away from that?

The idea (so far as I am aware) is still to avoid use of the letter that lies betwixt M & O. It does seem to have veered off somewhat surrealy though.

...plus, as I stated as part of the OP, the whole idea arose out of the regrettable mishap with regard to the Cyclechat jerseys order, where a letter was left out of a word so that it became "friedly"...
