Here (taken for a dating site troll)

I saw part of it (that's what a trailer is) and it was hideous imo.

You know, I don't think I'm preaching about other people daring to have a different sense of humour. I'm preachin' about behaving unacceptably to other people. It all seems pretty nasty to the women, and that is the problem.

FWIW (if indeed its worth anything) I didn't find Trigger Happy TV funny.
I wasn't offended, it just didn't make me laugh :)

Animation · 02/01/2012 18:16

I laughed - except for the black one - I have no excuses or justification or rationalisations. I found the sketches funny...there was a resemblence.

I don'r need anyone to be my conscience here. I have one of my own.

toweraboveyou · 02/01/2012 18:16

I've been trying to draw a picture of myself to show funny it can be but I can't draw anything that isn't still incredibly handsome.

JenniferEight · 02/01/2012 18:19

ah, so in theory this could never, ever happen to you, OP

toweraboveyou · 02/01/2012 18:20

Nope, far too beautiful. It's a burden to be honest.

OP posts:
JenniferEight · 02/01/2012 18:20

Oh unless of course you are black. In which case, we can get past the handsome bit and just focus on your general 'darkness'

toweraboveyou · 02/01/2012 18:22

I'm not. But why would you focus on that? Everybody has said that one wasn't funny. And you couldn't get past the handsome. It's like a wall.

Everyone, eventually, except for the bunch of weirdos on PH who still think it's great.
And the 'brilliant' guy who drew these in the first place.

JenniferEight · 02/01/2012 18:27

Does your wife actually use MN?

toweraboveyou · 02/01/2012 18:28

I didn't say he was a brilliant guy. I said he was a brilliant troll. Skeletor is a brilliant villain but I wouldn't ask him to babysit.

OP posts:
toweraboveyou · 02/01/2012 18:28

Yes she does.

OP posts:
Get0rf · 02/01/2012 18:28

I doubt the 'wife' exists, tbh.

xyfactor · 02/01/2012 18:28

Hahahahahahah @ babysit :)

toweraboveyou · 02/01/2012 18:30

If my DW doesn't exist, I have larger issues than laughing at some pictures. But then if my DW doesn't really exist, how do I know any of you do either?

OP posts:
JenniferEight · 02/01/2012 18:31

I think promoting someone else's nasty trolling is really suspect behaviour.

JenniferEight · 02/01/2012 18:32

Can you not get her to come on this thread then? It was her idea after all.

I'm desperate to know who she is.

toweraboveyou · 02/01/2012 18:33

I don't find it especially nasty. A lot of other people found it funny too but most of them were quickly bullied off the thread and called stupid.

OP posts:
TowersWife · 02/01/2012 18:35

I am real Grin
I am a regular and have namechanged obviously as my normal profile is open.
(get HQ to check if you think I am a sockpuppet, I promise I'm not though)

I laughed at these pictures. Other people have laughed at them too, not just Tower. I thought other people would laugh so it should be shared. Some of them did, some didn't.

Namechanging back now, tatty bye :)

Animation · 02/01/2012 18:36

"A lot of other people found it funny too but most of them were quickly bullied off the thread and called stupid."

Grin Yeah - how ironic is that!!

xyfactor · 02/01/2012 18:37

Isn't he allowed to post JenniferEight?
Being desperate to know who his wife is makes you sound sort of....well, desperate.

:)

toweraboveyou · 02/01/2012 18:40

Maybe now that I've told Jen how handsome I am, she hopes I don't really have wife?

OP posts:
TowersWife · 02/01/2012 18:40

Oi, DH, stop trying to flirt with Jennifer! Grin

Pliny · 02/01/2012 18:43

Yep I would have changed name too Tower's Wife, cowardly though it is, I'd be pretty ashamed too so I'm guessing you are too.
