Well that's just what I'm on about. Sometimes I feel much misaligned on here!

People often talk in riddles that sometimes need scarification.

oh ffs. missed pacific

I don't goose the point of this thread?

You all do alright, in general. There's no need to be so self-defecating.

good efforts all round - really quite funny. been a long time coming.  now give up while you're ahead.

Some times I feel I am being ostricheyesd on here!

Don't worry Ante, we have every confidants in you.

Good moaning! I thought I'd just mention that in pisssing!

Here's a compilation of things written by 16 year olds in GCSE Exams (these were published in a newspaper some 20 - 30 years ago; made me laugh so much that I cut it out and kept it):

Ancient Egypt was inhabited by mummies and they wrote in hydraulics.

Moses went up on Mount Cyanide to get the ten commandments. He died before he ever reached Canada.

The Greeks were a hightly sculptured people, and without them we wouldn't have history. The Greeks also had myths. A myth is a female moth.

Socrates was a famous Greek teacher who went around giving people advice. They killed him. Socrates died from an overdose of wedlock. After his death his career suffered a dramatic decline.

In the Olympic games, Greeks ran races, jumped, hurled the biscuits and threw the java.

Julius Caesar extinguished himself on the battlefields of Gaul. The Ides of March murdered him because they thought he was going to be made king. Dying, he gasped out: "Tee hee, Brutus."

Joan of Arc was burnt to a steak and was cannonized by Bernard Shaw. Finally Magna Carta provided that no man should be hanged twice for the same offense.

Queen Elizabeth was the "Virgin Queen". When she exposed herself before her troops, they shouted "Hurrah".

Sir Francis Drake circumcised the world with a 100ft clipper.

The greatest writer was William Shakespeare. He was born in the year 1564, supposedly on his birthday. He wrote tragedies, comedies and hysterectomies, all in Islamic pentameter. Romeo and Juliet are an example of a heroic couplet. Romeo's last wish was to be laid by Juliet.

Writing at the same time as Shakespeare was Miguel Cervantes. He wrote Donkey Hote. John Milton wrote Paradise Lost. Then his wife died and he wrote Paradise Regained.

Gravity was invented by Isaac Walton. It is chiefly noticeable in the autumn whn apples are falling off the trees.

Johann Bach wrote a great many musical compositions and had a large number of children. In between he practised on an old spinster which he kept up in his attic.

The sun never set on the British Empire because the British Empire is in the East and the sun sets in the West.

Queen Victoria was the longest Queen. She sat on a thorn for 63 years.

Abraham Lincoln's mother died in infancy and he was born in a log cabin which he built with his own hands.

Obliviously not many were interested in this novel thread!

Not to mention old man Steptoe!

Watching some Moody Blues, nostalgic vids, last night and overcome with emulsion.

The lack of enthusiasm and cheese for this thread amazes me.

Getting back on track  what about Refugee for Terrorist. Common mistake nowadays.

Great list ombh but this made me wince.

Sir Francis Drake circumcised the world with a 100ft clipper.

Just looking back over some BGT performances, and how good it was, when Hollie Steel got a standing innovation!

Well that's a matter of a pinion!
