No, I've never looked at it either. It looks like a complete waste of time.

I have also never posted or even looked at the Someone has to be last thread either.

As for myself I would never post to a thread like this one. Or anything to do with the Middle East.

Anything other than a genuine music query from an anonymous guest !!!

Anything that has more than, say, 60 replies. I just can't sit still to read that many, and by then, I'm sure someone has already said what I would have said.

Any thread that I can't be nice to Martin Gibson on. Be Blessed.

Evidently, the prepositionally correct.

Threads you are never going to post on:

Pretty much all of them. I'll help the best I can with musical requests, but get a little tired if the question has been asked 15 times before...

I see no value in listening to LittleHawk's take on the world. (well maybe bits of it, but the verboseness puts me off)

Little Hawk has a pretty darn good take on things, IMO. Never found him to be at all verbose. His ape, however, . . . .

A list of threads that Martin Gibson guarantees not to patronise might be of interest for some people.

There are no guarantees McGrath. And life isn't fair, either.

Ever wonder why people say they are going to take a shit, when, in reality, they leave one?

I will never post to a lyric request having anything to do with sea shanties or Irish Republican songs. That is because I don't know any sea shanties or Irish Republican songs.

I will also probably never post to any thread about folk festivals in the UK or Canada since I don't live there.

And I have posted to Chongo Chimp threads in the past, but will not do so again since I refuse to write in that pseudo-Phillip-Marlowe-smart-assed-private-dick style.

Oh! The pity of it all! People who will not post to the MOABS and its ilk! OHHHH! It's so sad.

And then there are those people who can't bear to write in Phillip Marlowe style!!!!!! I weep for these poor lost souls, adrift in their world of self-imposed limitation.   (sob!)

Now, you can't call that verbose, can you, Ed? By the way, what exactly is folk music? :-)

And why would anyone sit around trying to remember what threads he doesn't post to? :-)

I have it on good authority that Blackcatter will never post on threads such as this.

Thanks folks - I have to say William Shatner has never beamed me up (in the facial upturn of the oral cavity dept)

Er... just what is your preposition there?

Have you heard the rumour that Georgiansilver and Martin Gibson are one and the same entity?   'Twould explain things.

From: Georgiansilver

GUEST. Anyone with any modecom of sense can see that you are the initiator of the rumour as they only have to study a few of the threads. Historically, mudcat members have knowledge of both his character and mine. I am the person you see and he is by his own admission a fake. Your immature effort to cause some sort of confusion has failed. Be Blessed anyway.

One's real, one's a fake. Hmmmmm. How does that disprove the rumour?

I heard a rumour that this Guest is not the Guest who claimed to be the Guest that was offended by the Guest who posted the stuff about the Guest who got into a big fight with Martin Gibson about Guests who post as other people's Guests. I wonder if it's true?

"Guest". Anyone can see from studying the threads that you are the one trying to start the rumour. I hope you feel that you have achieved something from it in your anonymity, other than proving your lack of etiquette and knowledge of Catters. Be Blessed.

Generally, threads like this.

Never opened that Mother of all one, and I absolutely detest all those US/Iraq related discussions which distract many from the music threads, and nationalistic discussions generally. I do however really get my rocks off with instrument threads.

Oh well...

Peace, Mooh.

Talk about waiting your time by posting on these threads.


Never trust rumors, unless they're about tumors.

I don't respond to posts with titles having more than one exclamation or question mark. Like this:

Need help with Transylvanin rhyme scheme!!!!!

or

Prince Charles secretly a Rastafarian????

Something tells me the posters are a little too squirrely for me to help them.
