Never seen them. Will she post a picture of them, all naked and stuff?

Don't let the door hit you on your ass on the way out.

Hey, what are you still doing here?

capnhowdy · 08-06-2006, 05:17 PM

as usual he was gaming for attention.

SteveBsjb · 08-07-2006, 10:47 PM

You gamer you!

You really had me going.

I thought this was one of those AUTHENTIC "good-bye because I'm mad at someone" threads. Did you know that there are people that really read "words on a screen" and get upset, and instead of just leaving forever, they post a "good-bye" thread first and then watch it hoping to get lots of "please, stay" responses?

Ahhhh, the old swan song routine!!

And you'll never be happy here until you understand and accept that.

Flint · 08-08-2006, 08:35 PM

Will you teach me how to be happy?

08-09-2006, 03:49 AM

Ahhhhh, grasshopper, you seek that which is sought by all and which many will find; however, it is not your destiny. The closest you shall come is to find a deep satisfaction in knowing that you have made others as unhappy as you are yourself; unless, you seek out the one and only one who can guide you through a perilous journey along the road to happiness. You must go, grasshopper, to find the one called "tw" and bind yourself to him so that you may learn the facts, just the facts, that will give you new eyes with which to see the world around you. True happiness may only be realized by weighing the pros and cons for each of life's situations; so, I relinquish responsibility for your training to your new master, "tw."

Only a child or someone who deals in emotions would find that funny.

Or a mental midget. Or most recently, someone who is daft.

Beware the mindbenders!

xoxoxoBruce · 09-06-2006, 08:57 PM

Criky, Tin man, nobody was bashing the Brits. You weren't following (or comprehending) the previous three posts to that reference. Besides it was made by a canadian, to boot.

09-07-2006, 05:43 AM

Sorry xoxoxobruce, my sincerest apologies. You're quite correct. I failed to check the nationality of thrillhouse and speed read my way through the prior posts. Unfortunately, I'm using my Mac at work when I'm in the Cellar and have to dodge my boss when doing so which sometimes means I don't pay full attention to what I'm reading.

But, before reading those posts I had been on some other threads where I'd come across a couple of genuine sarcastic swipes at us Brits and my dander was up. Third time round it was a case of what you call 'three strikes and you're out' moment.

Besides, I thought the smiley, and the fact my riposte was so obviously crass and stereotypical of insults aimed at Americans, gave a clue that I wasn't being too overly sensitive about the comment. Friends?
