Hi all
from scanning the forum how decent most of the posters are.

Definitely a noob, haha! Put downs tend to be far more eloquent and obtuse than your average forum!

Wasn't there a post-count auction a while back?

I think there's been a few in the past

Is there any chance we could have some more blonde gangsters? I feel blondes are under-represented in the murderous gangster fraternity.

It's racism.

Once you join this forum you can never leave...

This is true, I only came here to ask a question about a new build.

I don't understand why society glorifies gangsters (thugs) and their actions

So anyone that enjoys crime movies, LA Confidential, Goodfellas, Godfather, Pulp Fiction, etc...is glorifying crime?

Most sensible people are able to appreciate it as entertainment without glorifying it. It's just a reference to some good movie characters as far as I'm concerned.

one thing il ike about this forum is there are times you can be insulted and not twig till the second time you read it.

Back in the day, they had a bit of class and style.

Unlike the thug life throbbers of today.

Dennis Hopper's character explains why Sicilians aren't blonde very succinctly in True Romance.
