Just remember what Ignatz Semmelweis's studies teach us.

Good heavens, is DinG giving birth?
Congratulations in order?

Blimey Less "loath" assuming you missed the "e" out...loathe that's a bit strong.

I love you.
In fact I hear voices, I have to love you.

The rules are there to be interpreted by the moderators, not by me.....we are expected to accept the decision of the moderator, we are not supposed to question the decisions made by the moderator......in the main the moderators only intervene when they have to.
I think that they believe we can( to some degree) self moderate.
Life is full of rules.

Not pedantic, certainly not gradgrindesque ... if it's anything, it's Carlinesque. In his "7 Words ... " skit, he talks about something vaguely similar. As in, "It's ok to prick your finger; but not ok to .... " Self-moderating should work on a forum like this. In the same way that communities, streets, and neighborhoods were self-governing back when I was a nipper.

I think F.A will be ok as long as it is bitter or sour F.A

Sweet F.A may not be palatable

So.... you were saying something about the TV licence?

We never used blooming acronyms in the RAF!

/me runs & hides behind the big OT sign.

I could claim auto correct was at fault there but I'm loath to do that.

Loathe isn't even strong enough,

I can believe you hear voices, I doubt very much that you pay attention to them though, after all, the only thing they would be repeating to you would be, "shut up".

I could stand you in small doses, but then, small doses of anything as poisonous as you is all that anyone could stand.

I know it isn't anything personal, you are just as nasty and condescending to other members of the site, we should be grateful that you exist just to make our lives more worthy than they would be if you didn't come on to show us how marvellous you think you are.

Now then, enough of my hero worship, would it be possible for us to get on with our conversations without you interrupting? If you could just do that it would prove you to be the superior being you try to convince us of.

Nope..wrong again Gordo..
You obviously haven't read any of those copies of the San Francisco Chronicle held in the Reference Section of the Accrington Library.

You did not make it clear in the post that quoted 'Odd Bodkins' that you were referring to any publication.
So Gordon was, in essence, right.


Why would Gordon want to read such a publication.....and would he even know it existed?
If you are referring to a particular publication, then this should be made clear by writing (perhaps) the full title and putting it into italics so that it is plain as to your meaning.
You seem to take pleasure in trying to belittle other forum members.
You have done it with Gordon, you have done it with Dave in Germany.
Do you really need to do this to make yourself feel superior.
If you do,then you need to find a better way of finding self fulfilment.

More than one euphemism? And as not too many folks believe in the Third Commandment any more, maybe we should call it "archaic." Except for conservative (not as in "tory" ) fundamentalist muslims, or American born again weirdos, not too many take blasphemy all that seriously any more, or are even sure what "blasphemy" is.

Maybe DtheP is attempting politeness. Euphemisms are most commonly used to avoid offending people. For example, you phone your bank. A recorded message comes on: "I'm sorry; I'm away from my desk right now. Please phone back. Your call is important to me." Now, isn't that better than: "I had to take a shiite. Call back when I'm done."?

[Margaret Pilkington]

The attempt(if it was such) at politeness missed the mark when the poster commented about the badge for Gordon......and when you look the badge is insulting and derogatory in that it calls Gordon'mediocre'.
Who died and left Dthep47 as King?
DtheP47 would not know politeness if it jumped up and bit him on the behind!

Hey Eric gotta defend Gordo here it was only one apostrophe missing there.
Although he may want to plead ignorance and it would be a good defence.

Again you cannot resist a dig against another forum member.
