We are only a few posts away from Godwins Law being invoked...

You know you're right David. I was reading the paper this morning and there was a story about a man who broke into an orphanage, raped and murdered 300 in the building, before setting fire to it and urinating on the ashes.

I was feeling revulsion and disgust, until I carried on reading only to find they found plans and drawings in the guys home, he'd plotting the act for years.

I felt such a relief and a smiled donned my face as I realise it had been well planned all along.

Tortured analogy alert.

Don't mention the war. I thought I got away with it but ssja got out his delete button.

Oh Whinge, you don't mention Godwins law until it's invoked, i thought i'd taught you this.

Interesting 'reasons' on last year.

Utter, Utter bollocks. But interesting nonetheless.

Aye, Wright lying through his teeth. "Scottish born"....

Li began the weekend by taking victory in the third A Flights event of the year, following the previous wins for Yuanjun Liu and Bin Zheng earlier in 2017.

After whitewashing Wenqing Liu at the last 16 stage, Li defeated former World Championship qualifier Qiang Sun in the quarter-finals, saw off Yin Deng in straight sets in the semi-finals before defeating Di Zhuang 2-1 in the final.

The weekend's second day featured the 32-player World Cup Qualifier, with Li qualifying alongside Yuanjun Liu to represent China in Frankfurt from June 1-4.

Li defeated one of last year's World Cup representatives, Wenge Xie, at the last 16 stage and also overcame Zhiyong Wu, Lihao Wen and Wenqing Liu.

Liu will be competing in the World Cup for the second successive year, after defeating Ende Zhu, Qiugang Su, Qiang Sun and youngster Xiaochen Zong.

In the weekend's B Flights event, Zizhao Zheng defeated Junyi Tang 3-1 in the final, with Haoming He and Jinxi Wu reaching the semi-finals.

Reading on Twitter that Jelle's wrist surgery today was successful. Guess that's him out of the World Cup of Darts.

Wondering what excuse they can use next year
