What are you going to continue with UG? A mutual admiration society? lol

Please don't call me ignorant and I wont call you an arsehole my friend.

Urbane Guerrilla · 02-08-2009, 06:32 PM

Ali, in those moments when you are ignorant -- and if I'm not -- I'll tell you so. If you're going to be an arsehole -- not likely, as you have a knack for avoiding that -- I promise I'll call you on that too.

Aliantha · 02-08-2009, 06:37 PM

Well, some people think I'm an arsehole that's for sure. Lucky I don't give a shit about that though (pardon the pun).

I just don't think it's fair to suggest someone with a different opinion is ignorant. Perhaps they see facts from a different perspective or have different motivations, but that doesn't make them ignorant. It makes them different, and possibly helpful in situations which require diplomacy, which is what I think is sadly lacking in this instance.

Can't hide from me! (runs after Classic)

Aliantha · 02-08-2009, 07:44 PM

ok, now the mental image I have is of classic running around the couch being followed by UG in chainmail carrying a horse whip. lol

Trust me, it's funny!

Don't forget the bagpipe.

Don't forget playing Monty Python's The Lumberjack Song on the bagpipes. It does fit.

It will have to wait, though, until I've finished chasing Classic around the sofa. Puff puff puff.

Then we can refresh ourselves with the haggis and the whisky and the bashed neeps. Sort of a post-Burns Night supper.

OK, you are creeping me out now - A LOT!

Urbane Guerrilla · 02-08-2009, 07:48 PM

It also sounds like "shingshing shingshing shingshing shingshing!" Somewhere between pocket change and the rustling of leaves.

Aliantha · 02-08-2009, 07:51 PM

lol...thanks for that. The image is so much better now.

BTW, I think classic is getting tired. Keep running UG.

Urbane Guerrilla · 02-08-2009, 09:41 PM

Arf arf arf.

Aliantha · 02-08-2009, 10:21 PM

Bruce! You're killing me!!! A girl can only take so much you know. lol

TheMercenary · 02-08-2009, 11:55 PM

And the Haggis.

Aliantha · 02-09-2009, 12:18 AM

ok, now it's just too funny.

THAT'S ENOUGH!!!
