Oooh a lot of birthdays today. Happy Birthday Happy birthday to *Beth* for tomorrow

Ah, everyone remembered today. Nice gesture!

Happy day to you all ! ! !

Happy birthday everyone!!!!

Happy birthday to all!

Many happy returns of the day to all of you!!!

Thankyou everyone .

Happy birthday to the 4 other people here whose birthday it is today; and happy wedding anniversary to those concerned .

Happy birthday to all.

Nearly missed this thread because of its title.

Yep - Happy Birthday!!

(But why the odd title for the thread? Why didn't you just call it 'Happy Birthday'??!! And please, don't keep using the word 'lord' like that - I know a fair few people on here who might be offended by it.)

Happy Birthday to all concerned. Have a wonderful day.

Happy berfdee, all!


i notice tho that Mr GoneChopin etc habitully writes lord with a small l. that's all right innit it? i think its capital in the title becos the parson changes the initial to a capital. or should we make this another proscribed word [have i spelled that kind of -scribed right?] Im trying revert to using caps but i got out of the habit yonks ago so lord would always be lord to me.

i can always remember alt+66 is B cos i get upset when people refer to the Bible as the bible.

...are you drunk?
happy birthday everyone!! whenever it was....

well, yeh!
. . on that lovely poem you printed up there.


sorry about the parson!!! - shall i explain? if no, please jump to "end"!

you see forum rules dont allow jargon but some time ago a computer person talked about the "parser" - that's jargon.

its a little computer routine that looks at a string of alphabetic/numeric/other characters being input to check for things, like swearing frinstance. - it's like parsing a sentence.
it usually changes or assigns things on the fly like replacing bad words with ###s
modern computerers write these routines (which they call objects) in drossy high-level languages which they go to great trouble to make abstruse. me, i do this stuff in assembler which is clear and easy to understand (and results in smaller hugely faster objects).

but i read the post as "the parson must have deleted it" or what ever it was. so when ever i refer to how the abrsm computer alters things, like putting capital initials on a topic title, i reckon it's the parson doing it!
Sorry for my sense of humour.

"end"

hmm, yes there must definitely be something causing such strange statements .

(I found it much easier to do the capitalisation by hand then, no need for assembler, there would have to be a lot of posts before I'd be writing any of that . Anyway must be back off to my other window for some nice high-level C++ programming).

I misread your reply as " I do this stuff in assembly" first time round, no doubt with previous snippets of the thread in my mind ...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Happy birthday!

It's strange that we've already had 10 birthdays this month, and we're only on day 3!

happy bday everyone! this does seem a popular month for bdays in general ive noticed!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

*bakes extra large cake for all of you!*

happy birthday everybody!

edit: and thank you niki_flute for the birthday wishes in advance!

(note: will not be online tomorrow for fear of sounding like Sir Prancealot on this thread lol!)

Happy Birthday everyone!

I thought this was a completly different topic (the title).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EVERYONE!

Joining !

same, happy birthday all the same!!! enjoy!!

not sure i find it offensive but rather a bit irritating. it doesn't 'sound' in my head like a 16 year-old either. its use reminds me distinctly of mississippi's older inhabitants, not of an english teenager... and spell it with a capital "L"

Yeah...I thought the thread title was a bit random! Lord does offend some people- especially christians so please don't use it GCBS. but still HAPPY BIRTHDAY FOR EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD!!!!

I find it irritating as well, I had the same thoughts as Noodelz when I saw the thread title.

Car Expert

j**** wept! are you sayin we can't use the word 'lord'.

can we use 'and' and 'the' etcetera.
the way you lot are trying to ban words, posts will soon look like

### #### ## ## ######## # ##### ### ####.

dont any of you turn on your tvs after 9pm. if youre irritated by whats said on this thread then by ### you got some waking up to do when you hit reality.

are u just trying to provoke gonechopin. if not, why not leave off.

flippineck.

Isn't this meant to be a forum for all comunities and faiths? You need to be more considerate on here as it offends some people. In the Jewish faith, they spell it like G-d sometimes. They are only following one of the ten commandments.

And if you like your forums with ######## then I suggest that you leave this place.

flippineck.

cor stone the crows. thats g-sharp major.

Yeah, I'm with Noodelz here. It can be offensive to religious people who like to browse the forums. On TV you can just change the channel, but here you would have to stop using the forums if you wished to avoid this. It is also GCBS's new "habit" of doing this in the subject lines of threads for no real reason to an excessive level. It's just showing some courtesy for other readers.

Happy Birthday people!

Happy Birthday to all!

I found it a weird title as well, but I prefered not to make any remarks about it as long as nobody IS offended, just for the sake of peace. Let's keep it a little more relaxed.

Hmm... D#, E, D, D, G#, C#, F, D#, E... that sounds quite good actually! Reminds me of my serialist composition!

ok...*edges away silently*
