"All your responses give me the wonderful feeling of gate crashing an exclusive dinner party full of pretentious twats by pissing on the table."

Hope you are male.

Careful, Jewely.

>>Hope you are male<<

I suspect you'd have to get real close to find out.

My goodness. I've just come back to this
thread. What's going on here?
This has gotten a bit out of hand.
It's not funny when it stoops down to this.
Whoever said, "Sticks and stones ..." didn't
know what they were talking about. Words can
hurt, and they do.
Use words wisely, - not to hurt.

Please?

H,
At least you are balanced. You clearly have a chip on both shoulders.
Anyone that has the need to attack so many people indescriminately to in order to prove either their importance and/or intelligence only suceeds in proving their own failings.

I am disappointed too I thought that such childish pleasures were the sole function of the immature. i.e. like the drunk teeager who thinks it's somehow life affirming to stand in the street at 3 am and scream obscenities just to upset the people whose circumstances they neither know or care. Once they sleep it off because in the morning they'll realize who the fool really is.

Well sorry folks, but I certainly saw the humour and wit in Houllies
posts and enjoyed them. Along with that, he blended in a few
truisms, perhaps stuff some did not want to hear, but sometimes
the truth hurts.

Call me immature or whatever you like, I'll just call you an
old fart :)

I'd much prefer more Houllies on OLO, compared to the religious
nuts which we have to tolerate on a regular basis. But that is
just me. I refuse to take OLO as seriously as the rest of you,
it seems.

If it upsets you Foxy, then don't comment at all. I mean no offence, and I agree about the sticks/stones thing, but I'm not one for Bibles and turning the other cheek.

Such is life; or a part of life. I've said before I'm not proud/ashamed. (Though it is a little irritating to be given a lesson in behaviour...)

Besides, as I've said it's a part of life;-especially on Forums. It would be appalling if this forum was swamped with this, but as a pragmatist I'd suggest that some locking of horns adds a zestiness to forums!

I'd guarantee that OLO would lose members/observers if we all agreed,-OR disagreed in a 'frightfully nice' or even affable manner.

I DO take discussion here seriously (Yabbs!), because opinions are generated on many occasions, by some fairly intelligent folk;-friend OR foe.

I have to say though, that in my professional/personal life...I behave completely differently!!
