I canāt tear my eyes away. Itās like some mutant offspring of Kuato, Mr Hanky, The Face of Boe and Han Solo in Carbonite.
Not that popular on Twitter, sadly.
Meh, the masses donāt understand anything. Itās a cult classic in the making.

The inspiration actually comes from a classic. Itās one the few decent lines that āMike the Cool Personā got in the Young Ones. Christopher Ryan got jipped for lines on that show.
I feel like Iām carrying this thread on singlehandedly, either through āreplying to myselfā, or creating disgusting sausage-based Sepp hybrids that elicit disgust and wonder in equal measure.
One depressing little thing from this left-wingerās perspective was all the talk of sponsor power today. āAh, FIFA have had it now, because VISA and McDonalds are saying itās wrongā.
*sigh*
Itās a short read, but worth it as it uncovers an interesting conspiracy theory. 
FFS Ohio, itās not widely known, but The Manās banning of pap was part of a coordinated attempt to wean him off conspiracy theories.
Now you come along and put his therapy back months.
Cheers, mate!
summer world cup 2015 would be pretty sweet tho! I would be so pumped if they announced impromptu world cup tomorrow!
I am u-turn anyway, i am pro-blatter now, i am going to my local polling station tomoz and vote for him. I admire his fuck-you attitude! I have got no problem with him making a little cheddar on the side. I would be exactly the same if i had his job.

Which in itself, is a conspiracy theory.

Years now, thanks to your intervention, bletch!
They always say that about sponsorsā¦until the controversy blows over and they get back on boardā¦
Itās pretty clear to me that at least one of Papās investigations must have been getting pretty near to The Truth, for The Man to shut him down like he did. I wonder which one it was? Prob i.e. the one where the Twin Trousers are still standing, or i.e. the one where there is no moon.
Ha, I seriously doubt it. The only thing I was seriously discussing this year was the nasty business in Westminster, and thatās more news these days than conspiracy theory.
There were obviously a few people that took the hump so I just took a lot of that discussion elsewhere. Weirdly enough, it was all the people that hated conspiracy theorists that ended up bringing conspiracy theories up over the past year.
We will never know why I was banned. I doubt steve knows. Iād expect reinvestigatepapsbanning.com to become a thing in the near future. The theories will rage for years.
Without the ban hammer, papsweb would have been stillborn. Much more fun here than the other place!

Yeah, this is undoubtedly true, but itās only because weāve got most of the funnest, funniest posters from other places. On that note, we still need to get a couple more people before we can truly say weāve got the band back together.
I would like to see:
more Smirking
Lighthouse
Whelk
sadoldgit
cat
bridge too far
bucks
I believe we may have secured the membership of a certain Old git tonight.

What I find weirder than any conspiracy theory is how people can be interacting with each other on a forum for 5, in some cases 8 or 10 years and have never met each other. Theyāve probably had more time spent with each other than some of their closest mates, and letās face it, some of the man love on this forum runs pretty deep. And yet they donāt actually ever meetā¦for years and yearsā¦ That feels so sad!

Iāve said before; poster intention plays a lot into it. If someone sees a forum as a place to exchange ideas, then itās one thing. If someone else sees it as a ready supply of people to take aim at, it becomes another, and it is natural that theyāll try to belittle anyone with slightly purer motives, even if those motives are having a few beers in a local pub.
The tumbleweeds currently rolling through TMS will chase them here soon enoughā¦

I noticed that too, but actually think itās a bit more profound than that. Last couple of years, muppetry has been more of a movement (if only across the site) than posting in a certain sub-forum. The funniest thing I think I ever read was on the main board, by Bear; the loss of the Muppets is going to be felt throughout.
There have been 1.2K posts here in less than a couple of weeks, almost, and sometimes to a fault, pure Monkey Tennis. Itās TMS writ large, and while weāre going to have a couple of initial problems with boundaries and suchlike, I think thatās a fucking solid base for a decent forum.
