And finaly, thanks for the sentiments, GG. I saw this thread go up right at the very start....I've just been sitting back, biding my time, laughing my guts up all day. No offense was taken, and I'm sure that no offense was intended, either by the OP or by any of the contributers.
h34r: Well being the original poster I hope that you and others on here see it for what it was mate and if you have in anyway taken offence, which I am sure you haven't by the sound of it, then I am very sorry Mate. GG I agree whole heartedly with your sentiments mate and good on you for saying something but I can assure you my intention was very far removed from running Mr Butters down.
Butters and like Elk (you know who you are) make this forum and I reckon there are very very few here that have 2500 plus posts to their credit. Just think for a minute every post takes what, say 5 mins to respond to?, Butters not only imparts a big hunk of his time but also his knowledge to this forum. My point for this post was for those, especially the likes of Butters was to take the p#ss and air their frustration in a comical manner. We have all got to admit we see some crazy stuff get posted here, LOL the frozen chickens for example, but we also see a mind numbing amount of the same thing. "Why is my airlock not burping?"
The fact that Butters was the object of this post was simply because I read the "Kitten" rant (found Butters response hugely funny) and could feel the pain of yet another dumb question but to Butters and others absolute credit went on to answer the question, as he always does. The fact is Butters and a hand full of others regularly respond to the dumbest of the dumb to the best of the rest subject matters on this forum with the same encouragement and enthusiasim day in day out, I am very appreciative of that. But I have got to admit I also like the every so often big loose and rant.
So mate if your ever in Brisbane or if I get to Adelaide, I want to kiss (I will take my teeth out) and make up and buy you your fill of beer!
....sometimes a post like this is good for the soul
That's what I thought too!
This is classic, aussie's (and others) taking the piss. Thanks for the laugh guys.
Love your work butters, your a top bloke!
Agree!
Chappo, you'll need a sheep, a bottle top and some Khe Sahn and all your problems will be solved. :lol:
That's very true mate, can I borrow your sheep Baa Bra, a bottle top and your CC CD? Do I mash them at 70 for 90mins and what hops would you recommend?
Now Butters for the final time! My bloody airlock has stopped bubbling should I now bottle my beer?
