Bigmouth Strikes Again

[Cubist]

Ah, but will it build a straw man and talk about the elephant in the room?

Here is the news.



Cyclechat today is still reeling after 16 consecutive pages of mindless posting. Following an unspecified attack on an unspecified poster by a self appointed vigilante, rioters rampaged through a thread in the General area of the forum, brandishing pre-conceived ideas, ripping up lines of argument, & hurling irrelevancies. Damage is widespread, with a charity shop in the area described by locals as being reduced to a ‘complete peanut’. Asked about his behaviour, one of the rioters wearing a ‘snoodie’ answered ‘its cos ov that Bigmouth innit’ however he did not appear to know who or what ‘Bigmouth’ actually is. Youths believed to be from MTB who smashed up Café appear to have been unwittingly controlled by criminal Roadie elements, who quickly moved in and stole all the cakes.

The forum, which houses a large C+ immigrant population, has normally been considered peaceful, although local gang fights frequently break out in so called ‘Helmet Wars’ and there have been fears about cyclepaths in the area.

Police supremo Admin has been criticised for not locking up the threat and all it’s inhabitants at an early stage, but some fear that any restriction on posts from pointless trolls and unpleasant persons could escalate to include harmless idiots and bores. However a tough stance can be expected if the trouble continues, with reports that reinforcement moderators from other major forums YACF, Bikeradar, and Road.cc may be drafted. Rumours that an american could be asked to take over supervision of all UK cycling forums have been denied by a governement spokesman who said ' The situation at BROL is completely different - they are all weirdos there, and we have enough of them ourselves already.'

Local reaction has been mixed. A social scientist from the mainly intellectual quarter of Campaigning said ‘This is what happens when people are deprived of Cycling Facilities for too long’ , while others believe problems are caused by cyclists being continually confronted by pictures of expensive bikes they can’t afford. Many in the mostly Righteous area of Commuting want to see tougher enforcement of the law, especially for other people.



It has been suggested that this was not a spontaneous outbreak but a planned attempt at disruption intended to demonstrate to students how underlying tensions in a community can be brought to the surface by a single unimportant trigger from an external agent. At present, however, the community spirit has clearly resisted any such attempt and official opinion favours the ‘Bit-of-a-twat’ theory.

oh yes indeedy, though I think the idea of just the one elephant in the room is a bit limiting

 

[Cubist]

Only if one keeps straw in the fridge

How do you propose to do that? Have you seen how much room an elephant takes up?

Couldn't you just put it in a small trunk?

[Red Light]

Absolute editorial genious

He hacked it off my phone

 

[Speicher]

Beware that which you ask for. I'm prepared to bet serious money that Reg has some photos of a fairly impressive nature. Not necessarily his mind.

It would not be his mind that I would like to see photos of.

Inane humorless provincial doggerel seeping from every pore, the crevices in your pharisaic facade reveal a malevolent narcissism, devoid of reciprocal compassion but merely betray an egomaniacal obsequious cancer infecting all those that are unfortunate to fall into your vainglorious self righteous insipid excretia

Bombast and menace coupled with a phoney jocularity to seduce and ingratiate yourself in a community that feels repulsion at your obsequious peremptory dogma

Can you get that off toilet seats?
