Old timers squabbling about whatever?
Maybe the forum should take the Soylent Green approach, when the old timers get to 65 plus we just obliterate their accounts and turn them into biscuits....

Someone who could drive a chariot..sorry
wrong film.
Any old geezer from the forum, we have a plethora of the squabbling old buggers to choose from ...

Cmon, EB, you know you were insulted with the best of intentions… ?
Lods was pretty handy with chariots back in the day, I wonder if he could adapt to those new fangled round wheels though…? ?

I can drive a manual OK, but I'm not comfortable with the new automatics, which basically drive themselves...and don't get me started on those electric models. :

You got the insulted bit right NT, maybe we should have a rookie list on the forum where ageing posters can be put on before being delisted.
We can all wear our cardigans and have our own special thread about Viagra and Hearing aids etc...
Reckon Lods would be a very safe Chariot driver, think he has a Corolla from memory??.

That's a pretty good memory.
Mostly Corollas, currently a Yaris
I did flirt with a Daihatsu charade for 300,000 km ;D

The way I used the phrase "old timers" was to denote people who have been on these forums forever, i.e "an experienced or long serving person." This is a perfectly legit definition of the phrase. It can also be used to indicate an old person. At any rate, I apologise if you found this to be insulting or derogatory, although I would prefer it if you approached me directly rather than engaging in back door, indirect, inflammatory jibes.

The facts don't lie. The majority of regulars on here are :
a. over 50, and the rest are over 40
b. white.
c. male
d. Victorian
e. Carlton supporters

This forum was set up for Carlton fans, so I have no issue with point e. It is perfectly reasonable and to be expected. Some people may have no issue with points a to d, but I do. I think the site experience would be better with greater diversity.

I feel like I should be apologising for being a white male over 50 from Victoria.
My indirect jibes were more in jest than inflammatory but I seem to have the perception you think us old Victorian Whities are holding back progression on this forum and our old timer chat is putting off new younger members?

Must every thread become hijacked to be about race, gender, age, sex, religion, diversity etc debate? I am frankly sick to death of it and just about had enough.
