I use to have that exact joystick, incidentally - pretty decent, as I recall. Instant crash if you so much as breathed on the Kempston interface sticking out the back, though. Can't imagine that anyone actually managed to rub one out to Sam Fox Strip Poker or Leisure Suit Larry, but anything's possible. Hot uncensored NSFW pics below for those too young to remember.

I've just realised that's not the four-colour CGA original. She was probably magenta in that one. Modern kids don't know they're born, with their 16-colour EGA displays and 3.5" floppies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A plane flying into the tower for instance. A pretty big error, but still an error.

Given that big luggie apparently couldn't keep his own marriage oath to his first wife, he's got a d@mn cheek expecting anyone else to swear an oath to him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Ah, the days when geeky VLs such as myself could make cutting-edge double-entendres about floppies that confused the auld yins. Now, we are the confused auld yins 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance you don’t know a mason. You might not know they’re a mason, but you must know at least one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might be a "I don't know any racists" situation, where ICR just hasn't looked at their social media. The only mason I've ever met was an auld boy who tried to sign me up at a few charity events, but it's possible there are tons of them kicking about who haven't died yet and they just don't talk about it with regular folk. You do get the impression that it's very much an aging organisation that'll probably be dead in a few decades, but maybe that's just what they want us all to think. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh the guys i know are more interested in golfing than wearing an apron etc. given most of the folks in response teams now are 20-30’s id say theres very little interest in the masons etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad was one, and my brother is one. One of my mates is a funeral director and he is one as well. He tells me that he has loads and loads of cases given to him by the family members of masons. Membership is falling so when old guys die, the families are left with all kinds of stuff they don't know what to do with. They give it to him and it ends up stacked with all the rest. It really is dying out. One thing my brother found interesting - when my dad died he got all his masonic stuff. Looking through it, there was stuff from the lodges in Egypt during WWII that my grandfather was a member of. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Freemasonry is dying out- good news for Celtic then. They've really, really, suffered these last few years through masonic refereeing conspiracies... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
