I know a few people who are deaf and cant speak at the same time, I get along with them very well though.
Too personal, but since you've asked anyway, I was born deaf. My father clearly potted the brown instead of the pink.

Ok, sory for asking then.
Welcome to SI mate, think you'll like it here. Sometimes there can be the odd discussion which goes a bit too far between some members but overall this is definately the best forum out there to discuss Snooker. TSF for instance is crap. They have an obcession with cues and stuff

True, they do have an obsession with cue collecting and finding that magic cue that will take them from 50 to a ton. Of course, this is bunkum. A Paris won't make a rubbish player brilliant. However, they also spend a lot of time there discussing coaching, playing and playing tips and tips(!), and there are coaches on there, fully badged up to offer advice for free. To be fair, there are more players over there than here, and generally, that means they know much more about the game at all levels. It's a more serious forum. It's a good place for people looking to buy a cue or finding out about what to buy and how much to spend and which brands are worth spending some cash on. It's a bit dry though, some folk over there who have a carrot up their chuff if you ask me.

Nah, not as seriously as Maguire's face when he's cueing. He looks DEAD serious!

When people try and force you into dancing at parties, why is that seen as okay? I mean, when I try and talk people into putting the snooker on at parties they get the hump.

Quite a lot of women like snooker.
Not that you'd know it judging by the queues for toilets at the Ally Pally.

People invite you to parties? What, to make themselves look good?

They used to. But as I usually end up drunk, telling everybody who asks me to dance to get fuvked, they became less keen.
Good job too. So much snooker on these days. I ain't got time to snake hiss about.

Sounds sad. Snooker's great, but there are other things in life worth enjoying.

This side of the draw has turned out to be an absolute joke. I cannot see any other title winner than Robbo/Ronnie.

Dont know about you folks but Im enjoying every minute of this match
So far it has had a bit of everything, wonderful to watch.
Would love if it ended on a decider, a shame we've only had one so far and Murphy was involved in it of course.

They're the two favourites, but this is a decent match.
Second awesome match Smurph has been in this week.
