Had to share this with someone... London's very own superheo.

From the language on the website, I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be Growltigga in a leotard:

LOL,
Yeah, thats got to be Tig.

[Growltigger]

Hmmm, how did you reprobates know that I come from Kent.

Unfortunately, Angle Grinder Man is not me, although I have sympathy for his crusade (but not so much that the lawyer in me is itching to bring proceedings against for criminal damage on behalf of the clamping firms http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif )

I am currently running round Cheshire in a leotard and well padded trunks in my alter ego as "Captain Love Pump" (at weekends) and "Cheap Finance Man" (during the week).

Have you checked out the pictures page? Especially the "playgirl collection"

EDIT: And the testimonials... finding it very hard not to laugh out loud in the office here.

Well, it made me laugh. I'm sure spiderman or the X-men would never pose nude on their websites (if they had one).

The more I think about it, the more clever the whole scheme appears. For one thing it must be that much harder for anyone to take legal action against the guy (I suspect he crosses several significant lines with the 'legal advice' he dishes out) because to take legal action, you fist have to take him seriously...

Also, it might even be worth his while to get a court case and/or fine and/or short prison sentence for his activities because if the media picks the story up he could very easily achieve celebrity status and a very profitable 15 minutes of fame.

One of these days I'd like to figure out the logic behind those boots. Hmmm you're illegaly parked for 10 minutes so we're going to put a boot on your car and force it to sit there for many hours more. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

At least the idea has not caught on in Canada.

Hmmm. Now if there was an Angle Grinder Girl, That would get my support.

[narf poit chez BOOM]

probably a prank by a crank.

[Growltigger]

The testimonials are very humourous, I suspect the poor bugger is heading for a celbrity court case very shortly.

I am not even going to ask why you, Dogscoff, was spending your valuable working time perusing the "Playgirl" section of this website..

Is it because you missed the point that Playgirl means pictures of scantily clad men? and not pictures of scantily clad totty more appropriate for male viewing?
