Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Excerpt from "Seeress of Kell", Book Five of The Malloreon series by David Eddings.

Dear Do I
you start a thread titled "Greatest TV Ad of all time" with that horrid excuse of sales pitch?

I think this is the first time I have seen someone troll their own thread! and in the OP! Gratz it has to be some sort of record.



Ah the the bliss of not having a telly!
