You do realise we are now even closer to seeing Stephen Hawking compete on Robot Wars....

absolutely hideous, yuck, I dont want one
Posted by chandler, 12:18, 14th August 2003:
 
but you might if you didnt have working legs
Posted by arsepuppy, 12:19, 14th August 2003:
 
I should buy one for my ex. She then may stand a chance if we were ever to have a race up the stairs.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 12:20, 14th August 2003:
 
If i didnt have legs I would want to be tied to a skateboard.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 12:22, 14th August 2003:
 
and shoved down one of those hills in San Fransisco. YEEEE-HA!!!
Posted by friday, 12:24, 14th August 2003:
 
If I didnt have real legs, then I would get false ones, not an unstylish wagon like that one
Posted by Rosie, 12:25, 14th August 2003:
 
friday - your not as lazy as us lot then!

:)
Posted by chandler, 12:27, 14th August 2003:
 
its not always a case of getting false legs. what about people who are paralysed? this offers them more freedom, more access to buildings that arent wheelchair friendly, the chance to look people in the eye when the other person is standing. more independence, i think its great

if only Wallace wasn't so stingey with his patent for the TechnoTrousers
Posted by arsepuppy, 12:29, 14th August 2003:
 
But if they have false legs, you can take them off and hit them with it. Like Paul McCartney may be tempted to do when he finds out that Heather's only after his money.
Posted by friday, 12:31, 14th August 2003:
 
there is that to be said chay of course with all due respect
:-)

Posted by chandler, 12:37, 14th August 2003:

Posted by arsepuppy, 12:38, 14th August 2003:

Posted by chandler, 12:38, 14th August 2003:

Posted by arsepuppy, 12:39, 14th August 2003:
 
DISCLAIMER: I don't like taking the mickey out of the handicapped. I just found the pun amusing. Please don't crucify me :)
Posted by chandler, 12:39, 14th August 2003:
 
so you are saying handicapped people in wheelchairs are retards?
Posted by arsepuppy, 12:40, 14th August 2003:
 
I never mentioned wheelchairs, tsk.
Posted by Sul, 12:41, 14th August 2003:
 
shouldnt it be "mentally handicapped?"
Posted by chandler, 12:41, 14th August 2003:
 
of course if you didnt mean the physically handicapped, just mentally then its still a shit joke from the point of view that tardis and Londis just end in the same 3 letters, they dont sound the same
Posted by chandler, 12:42, 14th August 2003:
 
ap: you said handicapped, you didnt say mentally handicapped or anything else, just grouped everyone there as "handicapped"
Posted by arsepuppy, 12:42, 14th August 2003:

Posted by arsepuppy, 12:43, 14th August 2003:
 
Should have clarified. But yes, it was a crap joke. It's because my brain in melting due to COMPUTERS BEING SHIT.
Posted by Victor Menendez, 12:43, 14th August 2003:

Posted by Victor Menendez, 12:44, 14th August 2003:

Posted by arsepuppy, 12:44, 14th August 2003:

Posted by chandler, 12:45, 14th August 2003:

Posted by Victor Menendez, 12:46, 14th August 2003:
