Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Haha!
I think there comes a point where one can try to be too politically correct...

I was upset by something on here the other day... Really, very upset. I did what one does when one doesn't like something on the internet: I scrolled on and that was that!

Here's my compromise. I agreed with the original feedback I received, that the thread title suggested that anyone who needed to lose more than a stone was "a fat git". But I've gone back as close as possible to the original.

I've been called skinny all of my life. Now 48 years old. I just don't get the offence!

Yeah, same here! Everyone in this country keeps going on about how skinny I am, yet my mother called me a fat git!
I still needed to loose a stone!

Good compromise Fetch.

In my experience as a moderator, we all have different things that affect us in different ways. One person's *shrug* is another person's red line. Hanging out together means learning to accept that.
