TWTD Glossary 22:08 - Mar 12 with 6008 viewsmonytowbray

Was just thinking after referencing Burnley earlier that happened YEARS ago with a former poster. I expect some posters newer here must get confused often.

So, let’s say someone needed to study TWTD’s history for a TV special, and you had to summarise a TWTD exclusive saying or contextual quirk in relation to it’s origin/meaning, what would you say?

TWTD never forgets…

Lucan's train journey - you really had to be on the forum as that one unfolded though. Perhaps we could have one of those crime scene recreations based on it one day.

Some posters would demand to see evidence, and bully you until you showed it or backed down.

I'm sure we all have our fingers crossed - a way in which to express possibly ambivalent feelings, possibly with a view to outraging the hard of thinking.

The original post was, IIRC:

Is Haribo still ever mentioned or am I wide of the mark with that one?

I only saw it in passing but it seemed quite a key topic at one point.

Mopeds home from northern away days?

Probably going off the topic of glossary now though.

I Googled 'Context justifying prejudice' and am now thoroughly confused, I can't even work out if it is the context that tries to justify the prejudice or the prejudice that seeks to justify the context.

To get 'Joe Royle'd' - To have one's wedding ruined by external influences

To get RKD'd - To be unmercifully trolled on social media before finding out it's a member of your own family doing the damage.

No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.

Fish puns - why do we do it? Why? You get sucked in but there is no enjoyment in all these tedious word associations; however it just takes one and then they are all over the plaice.
