Just referring to the post number isn't funny anymore.

 

That's just a repeat of #3330...................................

 

 

Cheers,

Mick

This is all well and good, but I've forgotten yet again on how to go to a particular post number. And I've asked this question before! I know its something straight forward, but I just don't remember or can't figure it out.

 

Probably someone will point out, my own post with the correct answer.

I don't think that's it. I think what kevinlms would like is to be able to search for a specific post by its position within a thread (#5305). The post ID for links (p=2671988) is a unique ID for the post in the entire database. What's annoying is that to get that unique ID for a link, you have to right-click the post's thread number!

Yes, I want to look at say post #3330.

You can get close : Divide the post number by 25, then use the integer of that number in the web address at the top of the page.

OK close.

 

In the example of #3330, dividing by 25 gives 133.2. So you need to go up to the next whole page, which is of course 134.

That's right, though it's probably a good idea that anyone doing so also removes the value for the post ID after the page number (even though it seems to still work):

as against:

Given there is a (gay) porn parody film title 'Shaving Ryan's Privates', isn't a pity there aren't also titles 'The Loin King' and 'Parry Hotter'?

 

Jamie

 

No comment on that, but I am reminded of Mike Harding's brief parody of the mawkish "Deck of Cards", recorded on 'Mrs Harding's Kid', which finishes up: "One card took out his privates and spread them on the bench. The sergeant leaned over and said, 'Oooh, snap!'"

 

Edit: typo.

I was looking for a family-friendly model railway forum when I came across this, so sorry for interrupting, I'll keep on looking elsewhere...

I lost my internet connection last night and so spent some time talking to Mrs BoD.

I was amazed to find out she no longer works at Woolworths.

I was sat listening to some music the other evening when there was a knock at the door.

On opening the door I was confronted by a stern looking police officer.

"Is there a problem officer ? " I asked.

" We have received a complaint about your dog, apparently it has been seen chasing a man on a bike " he informed me.

" Sorry officer but it can't be my dog " I replied.

" And why might that be ? " he asked.

" Because my dog can't ride a bike ".

Paddy's mother-in-law asked anxiously, "What happened"

 

"I'll tell you what happened! I sent an email to me wife telling her I was coming home today from me fishing trip. I get home and guess what I find? Your daughter, my wife, Jean, shagging Joe Murphy in our marital bed! This is unforgivable! This is the end of our marriage. I'm done with it. I'm leaving ... permanently!"

Ah now, calm down, calm down Paddy!" said his mother-in-law. "There is something very odd going on here. Jean would never do such a thing. There must be a simple explanation. I'll speak with her immediately and find out what happened."

Moments later, the mother-in-law came back with a big smile. "Paddy, there, I told you it must be a simple explanation ............. she never got your email!"

Why do they put a flavour on packets/tins of cat or dog food?  It's not like we're going to try it just to see whether they're lying or not.

 

Well.....you say that, but our cats have very clear gourmet sensitivities, which they make clear when I buy some cheap sh1t from one of the German pile-em-high-sell-em-cheap supermarkets of the year (in Britain, certainly not favoured, although widespread now here in France) emporiums. Box-shifter is most appropriate, except that you have to shift the boxes. Their displeasure is indicated by uneaten, smelly and hard to dislodge remains, plus a continuing vocal cry for something better, without which they bu**er off down the road to the old lady who will give them her own dinner, for a bit of company. We have threatened her with sanctions, such as never speaking to her again. Strangely this has met with a level of derision I had not anticipated - I can only surmise it was lost in translation? I get much the same response from the current Mrs Storey as regards brand issues on certain clothing and footwear items. I defend by identifying my use of certain discount warehouses for my entirely essential model railway items, but this argument is unbelievably dismissed. Am I missing something here?

 

On the other hand, our dog will eat anything, but I pay when I have to scoop later. Perhaps they would do better to describe the output on the tin, rather than the input?

Is there any difference?
