    Was CUK better in the old days?

    Apparently it was. Obviously something as left wing democratic as a poll doesn't really answer anything because it doesn't take voters' sense of self-importance standing in the community into consideration but it passes the time when I'm working on a Monday night.

    Everything was better in the old days. Especially sweets. Whatever happened to those sherbet things you dipped liquorice sticks in? WTF was in sherbet anyway? Has it been banned?
    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

      Except probably the internet? Unless we are very specific how recent the old days are

      And I'm pretty sure those still exist, although recently they changed the packaging since having the liquorice sticking out was a massive health risk

      They even still sell Sherbet Dib Dabs (which your username reminded me of).

        The internet was definitely better. It's just gone downhill since day one really hasn't it.

          It was better when I was a mod.

              I've got some at home except they come in a plastic tube now and not paper

                Everything was better in the good old days.

                Mind you, it's all relative...

                  The Sherbert Fountain has the liquorice in it and it's now in a plastic bottle.



                  And Dib Dabs are very much on sale.
