And people saying us being skeptical was just an OcUK thing.

Imitation is the best form of flattery.

Not as good as when Plato said custard on Fifth Gear.

 

[ahenners]

Awesome. Speaking of custard, didn't the guy on here post pics of his F40 with Birds Custard in a similar fashion.

EyeDot posted with custard in various places on his F40 as he had no Hovis at the time.

 

[Judgeneo]

Do they have Hovis in America?

That with the pictures on PH was rather good.

Never knew baguettes were Italian, had them down more of a French thing

 

[paddy]

I wish I had that kind of dough

 

[spoffle]

I am disturbed by the lack of "Hovis"

 

[Rybo89]

Hmmmm italian cheesy bread! Nom nom nom

 

[Matt82]

is "bread on the head" an ocuk thing?

I like that, good work.

Although I do question the need to prove yourself on an internet forum. Who cares if people don't believe you? It's highly unlikely I will meet anyone from this forum in real life so I genuinely couldn't care less if anyone disbelieved anything I said.

It seems that no one knew this guy was in an executive position at Google so his real life credibility would have had no impact whatsoever.

I thought the whole Hovis thing was a PH thing?

Posting on "internet forums" is real life, unless you're playing a part or something, in which case there's far more things to be concerned about than "real life".

It would appear not.

This is a US forum so the chances they read PH are very slim !

 

[Crizzy]

Doesn't prove he owns it though, just that he has access to add bakery goods to such vehicles? The whole hovis thing to prove ownership seems a bit daft? Or am I missing something

 

[Fr0dders]

It proves he hasn't just used Google image search.

But your right, it doesn't prove he owns them. Diamond Mark was the perfect example of this, posting photos of dealer demonstrators and other peoples houses.

 

[TripleT]

Whatever happened to DM? How was he outed, think I was away when it happen.

 

[Fr0dders]

He was banned after another "drunken rant"

and subsequently outed. Those that had found out who actually owned the house he claimed to own, that his bentley was actually a dealer demonstrator etc.. were waiting for the right moment to out him, but then he went and got banned one night anyway before they could do it. There was also people whom he had claimed to do things for, when he hadn't and money had been lended, but then started demanding it back immediately and threatening violence if it wasn't paid after apparently being lent in good faith.

After the info was shown to the mods he was never unbanned.

Whether he was even drunk at all was another matter, as his entire character (as we saw it on here) was a complete fabrication and as a real as your favorite soap opera character. So you had to wonder if he was ever posting drunk, and just reverting back to his true personality and explaining it away as him being drunk. Very strange bloke.
