It's ok - you made your saving throw today.

I seem to recall Pacharan was banned for repeatedly posting drivel after being told not to. Apparently, on banning, he welled up.

I don't think the mod believed the story about pulling an 8 foot fig tree across a barber shop floor. Either that or due to the flagrant use of one of those awful historic imperial units.

How do these people work? ...and what do they get out of it? They post elaborate waffle that while detailed isn't remotely funny. They don't interact with other posters. Is it some sort of exhibitionistic autism?

Please explain why you decided that humping a tree across a hairdressers floor might stop a child crying.
I am not doubting that it did - but what made you do it?

One day, when he has become a sporting god in India, he will relate that story and you can say "I was that man".

Unlikely, because this didn't really happen.

Personally I prefer to be a good citizen on principal. But each to their own.

The tree?

The little indian boy?

These questions should be answered!
