Similar to donnae's yet at the same time completely different:

[My Friend Jack]

Chains - my baby's got me locked up in chains - but they ain't the ki-i-i-ind - that you can see-e-e-ee - whoa-oa, these chains of lo-o-ove, got a hold of me. Yeah.

[Deinonychus]

"Ah! Uh!"

"That's the sound of the man a-workin' on the chain ga-ang!"

(Either that, or a rutting impala. You decide.)

[Bill]

Isn't this where we came in?

[Deinonychus]

Thus completing the chain..?

[Royal Rother]

That's very good!

[lucyb]

Time for a chain-ge?

[Deinonychus]

Alice in Chains (etc)

[Royal Rother]

Chain me to the wall

[My Friend Jack]

Anyone else read "Gerald's Game" by Stephen King? Gerald's wife spends virtually the whole book chained to the bed after she fatally kicks him in the nuts during a bout of S/M. Just thought I'd mention it.

[Deinonychus]

Joyce McKinney.

(Now there's a memory for the older members...)

[My Friend Jack]

Was she the lady in the Mormon in chains scandal? Not sure that "lady" is the noun I wanted...

[Deinonychus]

(That's the one. And, no, you're right...)

[megustaleer]

I wonder if she bought the padlocks, straps, chains and ropes from a chain-store?

[Deinonychus]

(Maybe a Texas chainstore. Home to the odd infamous massacre.)

[megustaleer]

Which was perpetrated with a chainsaw

[Deinonychus]

(Well, yes - that was sort of the joke..!)

[donnae]

Are you arguing now you have the chain of command??

[Deinonychus]

Arguing? I was just stating the 'chaining' obvious..!

[Bill]

Which was perpetrated with a chainsaw

(Well, yes - that was sort of the joke..!)

Oh dear, the moderators are bickering already.

(Who'd have thought the Chain Chain would make it to a third page? Which makes me wonder if we're in the middle of a chain reaction.)

[Deinonychus]

Goldie Lookin' Chain...

..."your missus is a nuttah!"

[megustaleer]

Yeah, I noticed the joke. It had me in chain stiches.

[Flingo]

You know I think we are inchain towards Page 4....

[Deinonychus]

'China' (anag, 5)

Chain Pier (as at Seaview, IOW)

[Grammath]

Supply chain. What we retailers call the business of getting stuff from factories to shops.

[nospacesallowed]

:rolleyes:

Chain gang

er...whats the chain gang

[Bill]

er...whats the chain gang

I'm afraid it's you that's not making much sense, AJR. Do you mean, "What's a chain gang?" If you don't know what something is, look it up.

[Royal Rother]

Chain of events

(Looking at new threads in the last week, do you think this thread has succeeded in its aim? ;) )

[My Friend Jack]

Yes, with re-inforcing clips around the ear from Bill, it would seem. :D

[megustaleer]

Chain Ferries (I seem to remember crossing a few rivers on these when we drove down to Cornwall last year)

[Deinonychus]

'A chin' (anag, 5)

[megustaleer]

OK, so why hasn't one of the cricket fans come up with this one?

22 yards = 1 chain

[Bill]

We didn't want to spoil it for you.

You do wonder though about the chain of circumstances that has led us to where we are now: page 4 of the Chain Chain.

[Royal Rother]

The food chain

[Deinonychus]

'Inch 'A'' (anag, 5)

[Royal Rother]

Belcher chain

[megustaleer]

chain-link fence

[nospacesallowed]

I have a feeling this thread isn't going last very long . . . who agrees :eek:

[Deinonychus]

Well, I agree. It doesn't have a chance - I can't see it lasting beyond two responses, frankly.

In fact, I'd be amazed whether anyone even bothers reading more than a couple of words of it. What would be the point? Nope, it'll have fallen apart before we know it.

I mean, quite honestly, you'd think right-minded people in this day and age would have far more...(edited due to lack of space)

[megustaleer]

I don't agree. I reckon we'll get on to page 5 before we finish..maybe with a folk-dance to celebrate?

We could do a Grand Chain if we can get eight of us who are nimble on our feet ;)

[David]

I'm intrigued to see Apple Juice isn't ruling any more.

Isn't that just always the problem with pressed fruit beverages? They simply don't have the staying power for leadership.

What was it...a popular revolution by the caffeinated drinks range?

Plus ca chainge...

[megustaleer]

What can I call him for short? I can't use AJR now he's chainged his name :confused:

[Royal Rother]

If AJr hadn't morphed into noapcesallowed would he have been a part of a continuous-time Markov chain?

[nospacesallowed]

If AJr hadn't morphed into noapcesallowed would he have been a part of a continuous-time Markov chain?

hahaha you lot have to write nospacesallowed...first mistake already made by yours truly...RR look - noapcesallowed

[Flingo]

How about:

Nospacesallowed - allow spaces = No Spaces Allowed = NSA! Or we could just put Nos (its not no abbreviation allowed!)

[megustaleer]

hahaha you lot have to write nospacesallowed.
I don't have to if I don't want to!

Today I feel like calling you 'The Chaingeling'!

[Royal Rother]

Time to chainge page.

[megustaleer]

I said we'd make it, didn't I!
Now, what haven't we had?

What about a chain of events?

[Royal Rother]

Think I did that one a couple of pages ago.

Gold chain perhaps?

[Deinonychus]

Prefer the fake Welsh one (couple of pages back, post 34)...

I vote for a moratorium on all further 'chainge' posts. (Fat chance, eh..?)

"Me Tarzan - you Chain..."

[megustaleer]

Think I did that one a couple of pages ago.
So you did, sorry!
Gold chain perhaps?
Maybe an ankle chain?
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

I didn't understand post34, Deino. I assumed it was a song title/lyric, and outside any area of expertise I might claim...there's been a couple like that!

[Deinonychus]

Goldie Lookin' Chain (or GLC) are the very amusing Newport answer to the Wu-Tang Clan (ie a seven-man rap act). With remarkable broad-mindedness, the Welsh FA recently invited them to open the Wales/England footie match in Cardiff - and the band courted a tiny amount of controversy by dedicating their 'Your Missus is a Nutter' single to David Beckham.

I was right then!

Anyone else going to continue this thread? I've quite a few more, but if everyone else has had enough I'll wait a bit, and revive it again nearer Christmas. ;)

[Deinonychus]

Might as well give Tesco's yet another mention, since they seem to be appearing as regularly on this forum as they do elsewhere in the world. And they are, of course, a 'chain'.

[Obskua]

Do T*sco's sell that Greek dish beloved of horror film fans across the globe ?

I refer, of course, to Tex's Chainsaw Moussaka.

[David]

I completely sympathise with the impulse here to make T*sco an expletive.

The joke, on the other hand...
;)

[Obskua]

Aha - Expletive Delighted !

[My Friend Jack]

daisy chain?

[Royal Rother]

Ah, you mean Paper chains.

Nah, let's keep going. Just think of the chain reaction that might be caused once we are unchained from the chain chain.

[megustaleer]

MFJ, we had Daisy Chain a while back.

RR, you got the clue!

We could get a bit incestuous and use thread titles from BGO, if we get desperate, but in the meantime:

Dog chain

[My Friend Jack]

MFJ, we had Daisy Chain a while back.

I knew I should have checked. Now I just feel so... unworthy!

[lucyb]

and you a moderator too.... ;)

[Obskua]

Could there be a mention for those groups who on stage perform their songs exactly as they do on record - sort of Unchainged Melodies.

[Flingo]

What about a no entry chain (more often than not a rope, to be fair, but still - sometimes made of metal!) which stops you going up stairs or into rooms you aren't supposed to (eg in Nightclubs or Stately homes or wherever)?

[megustaleer]

Chain of Lakes.
There are at least 4 parks/resorts based round these features in the USA

[Grammath]

Mountains come in chains too, do they not?

[My Friend Jack]

Which, for some reason, brings me back to Joyce McKinney's friend! :rolleyes:

[megustaleer]

Do control yourself MFJ :rolleyes:

Getting back to the geographical, you can have an island chain, too.

[donnae]

Going back to our favourite shop on BGO - TESCO - is it a chain store?

[David]

Going back to our favourite shop on BGO - TESCO - is it a chain store?
No, Donnae, it's an EVIL store - EVIL I tell you!

Well, all right, but at the very least intermittently malevolent.

(Legal notice: the views in this post do not necessarily represent the opinions of BGO or its affiliates)

(Not necessarily)

[Flingo]

I think we need to put the door chain on while David learns to control his temper for when the T word is mentioned!

[David]

An adamantine chain wouldn't hold my Tescovine ire, Flingo!

(You're not telling me you're a fan of the Swan Centre outlet are you?!)

(Ah yes! I remember where 'nr Southampton' meant!)

[Flingo]

Not a fan, as such - but they have had Battenburg on 2 for 1 recently!!!!! (Could I make a chain of cake? Sounds tasty!)

I tend to shop at Asda mostly though! Closer to home - I don't actually live in Eastleigh, just work there (in the Swan Centre........)

I think you are narrowing down "The South Coast of England" by admitting to knowing there is a Tesco in the Swan Centre, David!

[David]

In fact I used to live in Chandlers Ford :). That was a good decade ago now - I'm further to the East at the moment (have to preserve a degree of mystery!). Now, do you remember Asda when it was a Carrefour? Restaurant was a lot better then!

Battenburg deal does sound good, I must admit.

Probably poisoned.

[Flingo]

Has always been Asda in my experience - have only lived down here for 3 years. Much more northern really (well, the locals keep telling me that Bedford is "Northern"!)

If the Battenburg is poinsoned then I think I ought to say "Farewell" right now, I might not get another chance with the quantities I have consumed.

[David]

Ecky Thump! Bedford!!

Had a friend there once but he had the sense like yourself to move south. I was getting tired of the visa process to go that far north to visit him, so it was as well, really.

(Braces self for northern backlash) ;)

Edit: Just realised - there's no mention of chains in these posts...

Excellent!

[megustaleer]

An adamantine chain wouldn't hold my Tescovine ire,

You've been reading Paradise Lost!!


What about wrapping your Tescovine ire in an anchor chain and chucking it into the Solent?

[Grammath]

An adamantine chain wouldn't hold my Tescovine ire, Flingo!

Tescovine - is that what my beloved employers use to grow their fine Chilean Chardonnay, Cotes-du-Rhone Villages and award winning Premier Cru champagne on?

Mixed emotions, eh David?
