On seeing Anton dressed as Dracula:

I see Anton is finally admitting his true age

From the 5 thoughts thread
1) Can Aljaz wear those trousers every week?
2) I wonder if Aljaz could wear those trousers next week?
3) Is it possible for Aljaz to wear those trousers again?
4) Can someone ring Vicky and get her to give Aljaz that style of trouser forever?
5) Someone needs to stitch Aljaz into those trousers...

.
I like someone who knows what they like!

From The ' 5 Thoughts - Week 6' Thread

5) Some say that animals can sense oncoming disasters, with wildlife and pets being reported fleeing the area and showing signs of fear before earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Dalmatians evidently have this gift of prescience also.

Okay, but the song was still a haunting rendition of the doomed Cathy's feelings for her lover and Kate Bush portrayed it that way rather than as Carry on up the Wuthering
"Oooh, Mr Earnshaw, you are awful!"

Re: Mark's previous experience
If I were mummy Wright I would be wanting a refund from Sylvia young for all those years dance training at Sylvia Young or did he have a special exemption from each and every dance class that the tthe rest were doing.
I think he opted for the 'Woobie Face Masterclass'
Money well spent

Re Steve's degree in English and Theatre Studies
I distrust any degree that has "Studies" in its title.

What's wrong with "English and Theatre"? And why not "English Studies and Theatre Studies"?
That course is the "I'm a treeeeeeeeeeeeeee" version.

As opposed to the French "Je suis une aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarbe" version

Re- Claudia's absence.

It would have made sense, indeed pure common decency, to just acknowledge that there was a family involved and, even if it was, as some would have it, 'trivial', that some people would put their children first and to hell with a television show. The fact that it was something so much more serious is (or should be), really, inconsequential to how people here should have reacted, which is to say nothing or at least have understanding that that's how Claudia, or anybody, want to deal with the situation which they faced.

But, noooooo. You get some people thinking 'Hang on, I'm from the internet, I must have a say. I must have an OPINION! Free speech and all that, don't you know'. The BBC have said this. Why, what is behind this story? Is there more to it, why are we not being told? There is mystery here, and I shall have answers! Why is the family dealing with things in this way. I'm from the internet. I am IMPORTANT!

In the meantime, all right minded and, basically, normal humans look on at these people and think 'Idiots'.
Bravo Sir.
Bravo

From the same thread (a day late, but who cares?)

Anyone who had a go at Claudia over a situation which anyone with half a brain could predict would probably turn out to be serious, and anyone with a quarter of a brain should have appreciated was none of their business anyway, should take responsibility for their own small-minded, judgemental and prejudiced words and not go looking for scapegoats for their lack of empathy. The BBC did NOTHING wrong. The people who made the distasteful comments on the other thread are 100% at fault and need to step up and accept that without making mealy-mouthed excuses and attempts at justifying the unjustifiable on a question of semantics.

I hope Matilda makes a full and speedy recovery. I doubt anyone connected with the show even in a small way ever reads this board, but if by some chance someone did/does, I hope they pass on all of our sincere good wishes to Claudia and her family from this the well-wishers on this thread.

From the Non Appreciation thread.
Obviously electric fireworks no real stuff
Toffee apples , candy floss,

Sausages and baked potatoes in the fire.

Jack Frost,

Scarves and winter jumpers

Have I mentioned I am scared of fireworks and don't actually like fireworks night.

I just think it could be interesting and different , music suggestions please ,I am no good at this sort of thing.

Also tonight reading about how very busy Mark has been through his teenage and presenting years, I do feel we should call him Mr Mitty,

Mr Mitty and the goat wrestler, they sound like a country and western group. 😃😃
Just to lighten the mood somewhat.

Also from the non-appreciation thread:

Karen and Kevin's wedding - imagine their First Dance.
The flailing limbs could take out half the guests
Sometimes it takes but a few words to conjure up an indelible image

On the difficulty of the rumba for men:

Of course the rumba is harder for the men! As a lady I find dressing in nude chiffon and gyrating my inner labia against the thigh of a near-stranger seventeen years younger than me in time to a full orchestra playing Phyllis Nelson's Move Closer while showing my sex face to an audience of millions on live television comes entirely naturally to me.

Well I think that it's fairly certain that Mark will cry after his
Oh yes. I can see it now...

"I don't know what's the matter with me," "Karen just choreographed such an emotional routine," "I'm not normally like this," "The whole idea of dancing and the effort involved just makes me so emotional," "It's not like me at all. I'm sorry. I must look ridiculous. I don't know where it's coming from." ***

Some less than fond memories of Kristina and Jason's AT may have influenced these posts:

Simon and Kristina do AT *Braces self for hairsniffing stalkerography*
Oh dear, it's going to be Simon standing still while Kristina bucks and kicks like a donkey about to be gelded.

In 41 posts, 34 different people have been nominated or had their posts quoted as POTDs. How, exactly, is that incestuous?

What is your problem with this thread?
It's not the first time you've sneered at it.

I believe standard DS advice is "don't read it if you don't like it"

I think the UN's true mission has been realised (from the ITT thread)...

I know there's Syria and Ukraine and Ebola and stuff but I feel missing out on Aljaz dancing as, presumably, some kind of scantily-clad sex-slave to It's Raining Men is something I can finally write to Ban Ki Moon about.
EDIT: Oh dear, I've quoted someone who's had a post highlighted on here already. I'm going to be damned for eternity.

< takes off socks and puts on specs > it appears that over half the contributions are from the same 5 or 6 people....

More of a village really. Not counting you though, cos you dont feature in the thread.

My nomination, from the isnt alison fat and useless thread....

She's a perfect role model to show that an obese person can be physically active without adverse outcome, and indeed can enjoy that activity. And believe it or not, people are more than their physical appearance and she's a great example of somebody who meets life head on with good humour and enthusiasm.
Brava
