Nexie smiles alluringly over his shoulder at Badger's back slapping, 
secretly glad that his palms are seeking a higher target at last, whilst 
simultaneously admiring Cips pert bosom as she looks on voyeuristically, 
vigorously knitting an angora cosy for a theraputic massager.

I have it on good authority that the M6 to Stoke is paved with tarmac, 
and parts of the victims of the West Country Mafia.

Ah! That all makes sense now. I thought it was "a woman sconed". No 
wonder the missus didn't understand me hiding all the currants.
I'm still not sure why scorned women become hirsute though...are they 
lycanthropes? It would explain the whole monthly thing and the obsession 
with hair removal, but I can't say I've ever noticed excessive fur.

More appropriate than burning or making a stool out of her? I bow to 
your greater scientific knowledge, Sir Bors the Badger, and wink slyly 
at your geography.

Ah, there you have the advantage over me, I am but a common town 
pervert, whereas you have the natural proclivity towards deviance 
nurtured by living in the wilds of the North, surrounded by animals and 
naive virgin policemen.

Ah, you're confusing troll-hunting with being a troll. Trolls cannot 
resist the urge to reply, regardless. It's no indication of success to 
be replied to, just that you exist. Quantum physics and existentialism 
would be revolutionised if it was Schroedinger's Troll.

Not to mention the chicken wing the KFC put in my intestine.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if it was all true, or at least 
inspirational source material for real government research.

Lol. Is it a coincidence that Pope John Paul II (the voice of God on 
Earth) was a goalkeeper in a former career too? Jesus was stated to be a 
saviour and keeper of men (but not in a homo***ual way, I'm sure). If 
the Islamic faith allowed images of people to be shown in mosques, I bet 
Mohammed would be depicted wearing gloves.

It's attributed to Lincoln, although to be fair, many people have said 
similar things - the earliest I've found was reputedly said by 
Pythagoras over 2,000 years earlier. Oscar probably very wisely saw the 
irony of regurgitating a similar witty phrase, and kept silent.

The Society for Hunting Ignorant Trolls is now in session. The first 
motion I propose is the appointment of a Trollfinder General with the 
honorary title of "Sniffer", who must be willing to probe deeply and 
remorselessly into all manner of hiding places, crevices and Priest's 
holes, rooting out with an accusing finger and a wicked tongue.
It is a missionary position, and pays the princely sum of 3 groats per 
annum, with a bonus of implements of torture in the annus primae, 
insignia of a pearl medallion or necklace and prime cuts from the spit 
roast at the annual society banquet (along with the usual droit de 
seigneur over the underlings).

Nominations will be received in secret and the position determined by 
the black ball procedure (or automatically decided by a 147 break).
