Why is the Big Board open to anything?

[wunt be druv]

Its basically a board to discuss favourite baked potato fillings - mine plain butter and cheese

It`s got to be a nice crispy skinned potato with chili con carne and grated cheese on top.

So in Portuguese, please explain why a table is feminine?
Wasn't sure if "The Big Board" was the correct place to ask, so it's here instead.

And yet the French form of table is masculine, the plot thickens.

As it is in German. In German the word for a girl - a word generally feminine in nature, you'd think - is neuter. WHY.

More likely to be nutter than neuter given some of my recent experiences.

Considering some of the girls I've dated neuter seems absurdly appropriate.

 

[Southern Scouse]

Perhaps table in Portuguese is feminine because tables belong in the kitchen, as do women...................
Wait for it.......Go!

This is a football forum??

 

[Driver8]

Cheesy beans for me.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

I tried Facebook once. Didn't like it - nobody wanted to talk about either faces or books.

I find it hard to believe football is still allowed to be debated on the big board.

Never discuss politics, religion or the 4-2-3-1, as my gran used to say.

 

[Meade's Ball]

I come to NSC for emotional advice and for new recipes. Oh, and to takes notes on when people are on family evenings out or on holiday so that i can befriend, find the address of, and burgle when away, only to offer complete support and shock when they return whilst sipping some delightful pilfered whisky from the tumblers i half-inched and wearing a hat i construct of stolen underwear.

 

[Meade's Ball]

ps - cheese and beans with a side-dollop of coleslaw.

 

[brightn'ove]

Don't like baked potatoes.

 

[Direct Dave]

Just to recap folks, this topic was started by me, not questioning the varied subjects people post about on here, but the way the NSC forum sections are organised, or not the case may be.
Please just take it as just constructive criticism, separating the football stuff from the general stuff, for me is just a neater and easier way of forum use.
However I'm quite happy to follow your ways.

As for the jacket spuds and their fancy fillings, please just leave them and their little plastic forks in the office.

Don't like baked potatoes.

[Cheshire Cat]

Don't like baked potatoes.

Burn, burn the witch......

Cheese, tuna, mayonaisse, butter, spring onion, black pepper, and maybe a helping of baked beans on the side..

Always makes me laugh that "beer" in Spanish is feminine, and "dress" is masculine. Never could work that one out.

Not going to go for the bait, definitely not......no. No way. (bites lip!)

 

[e77]

I seem to recall a vote on splitting the board along football and non-football lines and it went overwhelmingly in favour of keeping the status quo.

Wouldn't mind separate song suggestions forum though!
