replied on: 9/23/2003 6:26:16 PM Quote... maybe you would be so kind as to copy some stuff about tvs and cars out of a book on to this forum to help me? Rather than cut and paste I offer a little advice. Learn to ride a bike. Listen to the radio. Both are far better for you. |

replied on: 9/23/2003 7:35:00 PM Re: "Basically in response to my last post you have resorted to personally attacking me by implying that i am mentally handicapt? clever clogs give yourself an round of applause. you should be in parliament with debating skills of that magnitude." It appears that you are also capable of laughing (I presume that you have a mouth) but lack a fundamental understanding of humour. Perhaps you would rather we resort to fisticuffs. You name the time and place, and I'll show you that I'm your superior both intellectually and physiologically. Any time (apart from weekdays and Wednesday nights). Any time. |

replied on: 9/24/2003 2:24:01 PM Chicken. That's the fourth name I've called you: moron, special needs, sonny and chicken. If you want to add retard to that list, then that's fine with me, but I haven't and wouldn't use that word myself. You should be ashamed of yourself. Perhaps you would care to have an intellectual debate, then. You choose the subject, but I suggest that each exchange should be limited to 100 words. I'll start a new topic just for us. |

replied on: 9/24/2003 4:53:13 PM Now I'm a peakyblinder fan, and correct me if I'm wrong (I can't be bothered to trawl the forums for the evidence) but didn't you refer, with a measure of glee, to both Mr INEEDHELPPLEASE and the charming rotunda pants as, I quote, retards. Something about having seen the back of them. I was outraged, of course, such language. And it turned out not to be true. I seem to recall challenging you to provide evidence of their retardation, a mostly outdated concept in polite thinking circles. |

replied on: 9/24/2003 7:01:21 PM Thanks for the support, racheymaus, but I can handle this on my own. I don't believe that I have ever used the word 'retard', even in anger. If I have, then I apologise to all cerebrally-challenged folk everywhere. For evidence, however, see above. |

replied on: 9/25/2003 4:18:10 PM The question of violence is no gauge of morality or otherwise. Within our society we choose to condone and condemn various modes of behaviour, depending on what suits our needs (or the needs of the power holders). So we have been taught to perceive violence as a less valid, less eloquent mode of expression than words. Could this be because it is easier to restrict the proletariat's access to education than to physical training? 'I like bullfighting' - Pablo Picasso, 1923 'Yeah, it's a big laugh' - Ernie Hemingway, 1942 'And boxing's really life affirming' - Samuel Beckett, 1978 |

replied on: 9/25/2003 7:02:19 PM I think you're bang on there, sister. We've always sorted things out with our fists down our end, but we're beginning to use our voices now too. I'm the first of my lot to go to university. I tell you, there's nothing more dangerous than a thug with a doctorate. |

replied on: 9/26/2003 11:19:38 PM But I have to say, you're right. We should, surely, take some sort of pride in our mother tongue. Enough to want to talk it proper. I'm sick of reading about the 50p that belongs to the carrot (stay with me), is it really so difficult to get a grasp of the genitive case?????? I know English is the second hardest language to learn, but come on HELPI'MHARDTOPLEASE, have a go. It's great fun when you try. And proofreading throws up some really hilarious anomalies. This one time, right, I was trying to write 'calm', right, and I wrote 'clam': MUCH HILARITY ENSUED. Mr Blinder (Doctor), when you claimed to have written text books, you made no mention of whether they were published, purchased or read. Care to back up your swagger? Oh, and did you spill my pint? |

replied on: 9/28/2003 12:45:42 PM So might I have read you, then? Are you David Crystal? I hope so, always had a bit of a thing for him. Mmm, tidy beards. All that Ms nonsense. Pah. You're all man to me. And yeah, I could go for a bit of a rumble. Anything to protect the honour of my metaphoric pint. Let's say 90 second rounds, best of three, no knives, nunchuks welcome. That be ok? I'm free on Wednesdays if you wanna make an appointment for a spot of whupp-ass. |

replied on: 9/29/2003 9:59:06 AM You know I can't do Wednesdays. I'm not Daviod Crystal, no. Davina maybe, but not David. What can I do to prove that I'm all woman? Ask me a question that only a woman would know the answer to - something about menstruation, and I'll prove it. Nanchuks! They were all the rage when I was at school. What happened to them? |

replied on: 11/7/2003 12:47:29 AM My opinion, for what it's worth, and I think Dekster does seem to have gone off now unless Peakey really did actually sort him out, was that he probably wasn't actually from Coventry because he was too articulate. With greatest respect to Coventry folk, and generally they're nice enough people, but if we were to compare the West Midlands to a tray of kitchen knives, Coventry wouldn't generally be the one you would select for slicing a nice leg of best beef. No, my suspicion is that Dekster was from somewhere like Brighton. Lets hope he has now found a website where he can make contact with other folk like himself, God bless him, and explore it with like minded folk. But it's just an opinion. |
