So what would be the key attributes of a master wummer if you were to advertise for the position of head wummer at Wummery School?
I’d offer up stealth as a key factor. To blend in to the surroundings un noticed is for me a key pillar of a wums success.
I think winding up opposition fans is probably the most attractive element of football... Certainly is if you watch Newcastle as your team anyway Thankfully, the Sunderland fans that have managed to get through the initial gateway/barrier to online taunting (being able to read and write) are usually completely paranoid from a lifetime of hiding their abilities for fear of burning at the stake, that they mostly wind themselves up. My strategy was to post something relatively innocuous, even friendly, wait for one of the urchins to notice "he's not from round these parts" and just watch the two braincells collide in their head.... Now, they will call me worse than **** on their board, but if they ever looked back to the beginning, they'd see the times they went absolutely nuts, I only ever actually jokingly insulted them after they found the red mist descending and started the unpleasantries If you are prepared to reply to them all night on just one occasion in this fashion, you get yourself a reputation that can be used to full effect in future Is it mature..? Is getting upset/angry when a team loses a game mature? Is chanting at football grounds mature? Is discussing football endlessly on a forum mature? We aren't a mature bunch... Embrace it
I think there’s an element of long game planning needed above all else. Sprinkle a few crumbs, smile nicely..... then pick your prey. It’s a bit like hook a duck the way you wait for the duck you want to come back round again even though you know the prize is the same
A quick in and out strategy but leaving your mark in an almost unemotional, matter-of-fact way. Not even any laughing smiles needed. That can hurt the opposition so much. It helps to identify and bring out the nibblers.
Not a fan of wummery but if a person wishes to indulge it should be restricted to the football and not where a person is from. The cheesy chip, blue pop, six fingered crap that gets thrown about by both sets of supporters is not, and has never been funny. Makes me cringe with embarrassment, no matter who it's thrown at.
But the language I refer to is the sort of ****e that the knuckle dragging idiots use down mine and many a local who are happy to glass someone just because of the team they support. I link that bollocks to people who actually wish harm on someone, that's all. It breeds hatred amongst idiots.
Howay, that's a bit much and your issue which you are projecting, nobody else's. I very much doubt anyone making a joke about incest or cheesy chips or fizzy pop or lack of education in a city, or mining or whatever, wishes harm on someone else I feel the need to protect you from going to games and hearing football chants. Football fans are obviously mass murderers.
I don't like cheese, haven't had blue pop since childhood and had my 6th digit removed last autumn so IN YOURE FACE!!!
