...as bitching on a very sensitive thread is not a good idea.
a) I have already explained my position on the thread in question.
b) Nothing wrong with my arguments. Bloody sight more sensible than some on here. And they don't come from up my backside, being as my head isn't there. Unlike some.
Sorry....am off on a sidetrack here, but keep giggling about references to 'HQ' or 'Headquarters.' I'm visualising a sort of Dad's Army or General Melchett, Captain Blackadder et al down in the trenches. Either that or lots of jolly hockey sticks, ample bosomed Guide leaders.
So sorry Cari, Lucy-I'm sure you're all lovely and nothing like the above, it's just something about the word 'headquarters'.
Good advice which I'm going to take also [being confused as to why 'bitching' on a thread is 'bad' but 'calling' someone a bitch is acceptable . #doublestandards ....
Exactly Eloethan- and the only thing to do is to keep away from GN as long as this nasty nonsense goes on. Only came back to respond to some pm's saying the same.
Well said Elegran I am all for a spirited debate but the insults are not necessary. Once a thread descends to name calling I usually stop reading it only dipping in occasionally to see if sanity has been restored!
Oh, stow it, the pair lot of you. Why clutter up the site with days, yes days, of to-and-fro "its your fault" and "you started it"? Either call it a draw or arrange a meet-up somewhere equidistant and square up behind the bikesheds.
jingle Your first post on this thread included the comment ..........
"Nothing wrong with my arguments. Bloody sight more sensible than some on here. And they don't come from up my backside, being as my head isn't there."
When some people were upset your comment might be directed at them, you said it was my post that had "riled" you, which was:
"If you have to resort to insulting those with whom you disagree then it seems to me you don't have much confidence in your ability to present a coherent and sensible argument."
Given that you thought my remark was "bloody toffee-nosed rubbish" which had come from up my backside, I'm not quite sure why you didn't say it to me directly at the time.
