Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Yes, Guy Fawkes did break his neck on the noose but the punishment was still carried out in full.

A bit like when Cromwell died and the monarchy was restored - they dug up his body, hung it for a bit then stuck his head on a spike.

Probably more for the grammaitcal thread but Fawkes wasn't hung. Meat is hung as are pictures and heads can be hung in shame ;-) Fawkes' was sentenced to be and was, hanged (and drawn and quartered)

'Mon Jeff, it wasn't like your fight poll was like really serious and intellectual (and I did vote, and in the Chuck Norris one too). Deathmatch gives pleasure to millions* of Fetchies, as do whimsical and farcical polls like yours.

Don't be a grouch, just re-post it.

*probably not actually millions......
