Guest Moomintroll Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 In slight tangential defence of throbber, there is a bit of high camp in boxing. Being good at it gives folk the confidence to dress how they want. Just look at some of the stuff folk wear in the ring or at the press conference. A boxing gym can be a “safe space” where emotions are laid bare and folk have the conversations they’re afraid to have in the outside world. The two multimillionaire blokes on tv skelping each other is just the tip of the iceberg and below that there is so much good that comes from the sport.Yes, if you are actually good at it you can wear what you want. What's your excuse? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The support you get from other people in a boxing gym is second to none, my head has sadly gone too far to get back into it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Folk who's use the app - thus causing quotes to be quoted within quotes - should be made to converse in their own part of the forum. You're making the forum untidy, you knaves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyAnchor Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Football fans should be allowed to throw missiles at players of the opposing team who score, run to them and put their finger to their mouths. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigma Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 The people who type "haha" in Limmy's Twitch chat when he just breathes or pulls a face need dragged out the back of a dark alley with a dog lead and shot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKMAN Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 The whole media and social media outpour over the death of Caroline Flack, seems to have ignited an amnesiac epidemic to the fact she caved her boyfriends skull in a couple of months ago. It’s beyond laughable that people are suggesting the CPS were in the wrong to charge her, as a result of her losing a job on some shite reality tv programme. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
