You nailed it, exactly what is missing from this forum when you are not here , you are still No1 on the Newcastle forum but that would quickly change if you stop being critical of Sunderland
The Quietest Room In The World
"Sometimes, you need a little peace and quiet to stay sane, but it turns out that too much quiet can drive you crazy- or at least make you hallucinate. That's what scientists at Orfield Labs in Minneapolis have found by studying how subjects react in their anechoic chamber, also known as the world's quietest room. The sound level in the room, which actually has the Guinness World Record, is -9 decibels, compared to the average "quiet" room's 30, according to MPR News.
The key to the level of silence is the fact that the walls, floor and ceiling absorb all sound, rather than reflecting it, as most surfaces do. Thus the term anechoic: no echo. It's so quiet that you can hear your own organs: your heart, stomach, even your ears, which make a tiny amount of noise. It turns out that it's not an especially pleasant experience, especially in the dark. The longest that anyone has ever spent alone in the chamber? Forty-five minutes."
Pretty mental. Makes you wonder, when you're sitting in a dark room with everything electrical switched off, what is it you're hearing that keeps it from being so far off from the silence of this room.

If you want a laugh. Read the '**** jokes thread' on the prem board. Its ****ing hilarious. Some belters on there...
For those on here that have met my brother they will know what he is like. For those that haven't here is a sample of one of his posts and an insight of what I have to put up with..
"I had dream we won the championship then went on to win the Premiership.
Kim Jong un was the manager. The fans applauded in unison we were all in the same union Unison.
Half time entertainment was the executions of citizens who used the internet or people who dared to laugh at the managers hair cut. Weird truly weird".

RAW if he posted that why wasn't he one of them executed at half time.
That's the bit that makes me think we didn't win the Championship

There are some crackers on there mate. Too many to mention here.
The (only) one I posted, my lad told us the other night when we were all pissed up. Had beer coming out my nose. You might need to be pissed to find it funny though.
My fav is the one where a lass bakes something and asks the bloke for an honest answer. It's **** you fat ugly c***. Couldn't tell it here for laughing so much!!
I love this place!!!
