Connery was always the best.

I liked Layer Cake BTW.

This thread reminds me of all the meandering, heated and ultimately pointless gun and knife threads we used to have before they got banned.

I've let it go. I suggest you do the same. Have a nice evening.

Many of us on this forum are mature gentlemen.
The use of Pussy Galore is rather inappropriate.
Pussy Occasional would be more befitting.

That's untrue, how about telling the truth....for once.

Maybe you can't because it wont assist your agenda.

When you come here you are expected to read all the rules. Time and time again people come here from no where swinging a baseball bat when all they needed to do in the first place was to read the rules.

You can go on and on and I don't even know what your avatar was like, I really don't care now because it isn't going to change the world.

Now you start this thread (in the wrong forum that has nothing to do with Rolex discussion again against the rules and forum protocols) to marshall animosity towards the moderators, and that is not something I will tolerate.

Either get with the program son or get out of Dodge, its easy.

And yeah this isn't a debate.

I understand Stevo. We all need to play by the rules. But aren't you breaking the rules by having a gun in your avatar? Just sayin'.

When someone gets banned, are they banned for life? Or will they eventually be able to post again someday?

Thanks.
