Made In Brixton reality TV show is coming.

[spanglechick]

I didn't! How did everyone else know? I read back and nothing really stands out apart from two comments hinting at it, but they could also mean something else.

it was:
a - too tailor made to bait ed and others
b - too far away from how television works WRT to casting
C - I've met teuchter. They wouldn't have even met him for a casting, and i'm pretty sure he wouldn't have bothered applying.

You lot are touchy about age! Don't know hendo or Gramsci (yet?)- but think I might be the oldest in that list, and I'm not even that old! What's wrong with being older? I like being older. Plenty of my friends never got the opportunity. Do I have to start the sing if you're glad to be gray thread?

At least we don't have to worry about being vibrant and edgy. And it will hopefully make TV vampires leave us alone, can't be all bad.

Innit, apart from my achy knees getting older has been great.

'cos it's teuchter, winding up the Brixton forum is his hobby.

 

[girasol]

For a minute I was confused and paranoid I thought the whole 'Made in Brixton' was made up, but that's not his style... I think I get it now.

It's not bad when you consider the alternatives

Thats a lot of effort to go to to come across as a dull, self-aggrandising narcissist.
Is train spotting not exciting enough to keep him occupied then?

Sense of humour failure.

 

[friendofdorothy]

Sense of humour failure.

Didn't realise it was supposed to be funny...

You whipper snappers make no sense these days with your new fangled wind-ups.

 

[girasol]

To be honest it would have been better if it had been true... Better as in 'more entertaining'...

Are you having a go at trainspotters?

 

[Ms T]

have you just called Ms T 'older'?! you're a braver woman than me

It has been noted.

To be honest, I'm not sure the TV producers would be interested in my Brixton life. It's really quite dull.

 

[Ms T]

buscador I think the older urban masses would make a more interesting programme. I'd include you and friendofdorothy, Dexter Deadwood, quimcunx, editor - of course, Ms T, hendo , Gramsci ...I'm sure there are others

Like you, for instance.

bindun, anyway...

 

[Ms T]

I think you'll find they lived in Surbiton.

gentrification. 1970s surbiton = 2010s herne hill/brixton borders.

Not quite sure why some people are trying to spread the idea that it's made up but you should trust your own judgement and treat what the mob says with a pinch of salt.

was it 100% honest, truthful and unfabricated, then?

oh, so this could actually be true? I hope it is

 

[Onket]

Interesting.

I have zero interest in being in the show and am apparently too old, anyway. I am happy for teuchter to represent my views.

I am also happy for my views to be represented by teuchter.

 

[teuchter]

I think it's a small minority who wouldn't be happy with me representing their views, and they are mostly just trolls and troublemakers.

 

[teuchter]

The important thing is for people to use their critical thinking skills and not be intimidated by the monothought clique.

 

[friendofdorothy]

Are you having a go at trainspotters?

No. I find trainspotters are usually quite inoffensive.

I'm used to be part of a small minority, but I've never been called a troll before. I thought my troublemaking days were over.

You are not a troll.

Troublemaking is not trolling.

Trolling is winding people up and getting them to waste there time replying. As Teuchter has just done.

Did you drop your sense somewhere?

 

[boohoo]

The first rule of urban75 Brixton thread fight club is you do not talk about Teutcher.

One man's winding people up is another man's troublemaking.

 

[teuchter]

One man's troublemaker is another man's freedom fighter.
