    Firstly, I don't always agree with all NATs decisions, however he can be reasoned with, which is indeed very rare on most forums.

    DA will get over it, being an agent, he has the hide of a Rhino
    Enough people have questioned it. We're defending a bloody pimp here. Surely that's message enough.

      You are a married man you are use to it.

      Your assumption I am clairvoyant and omnipresent is very flattering but despite what you & my wife believe I'm not psychic or a deity.
      Humans are complicated. What they say or write is not always what they mean.

      I have a cold and feel tulip so getting cross with you and then writing ranting carp on another thread was amusing.

      And to be fair I didn't want to be like those posters in other threads who say things like "My friend says", "My sister says" etc. with " and 10 of the other women I know with different doctors agree with them".

      If that was what was happening then sorry to hear that.
      The only idiot who sent me a rude PM got some mouthfuls in public.

        Because despite finding NAT frustrating he is actually an intelligent chap doing a dirty job.

        I used to do that, but for various reasons I don't anymore. I also won't say if there is not more to it than that.
        I'm prepared to accept there was more to it and I don't know.

          Sorry, but can't answer that.

          Says vetran, passively aggressively not rising above it and thereby being sexist.

          The trick is to allow for the fact that there may be more to it. Where you give the benefit of the doubt, and how much, is entirely up to you.
          Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

            I was joking, SueEllen thought it was funny or at least she joked with it. She may have constructed a Vetran Voodoo doll for all I know, would explain the back ache!

              Nah that would take too much effort.

                The word bigot is a contraction of the phrase "By God, I'm right". Nothing to do with projection and everything to do with hating anyone who has a different view to you. It's a very isolationist standpoint, previously used in religious arguments, but seen in other areas too.
                Basic reading comprehension would do you well before you start using a dictionary. I neither stated nor implied that bigotry had anything to do with projection.

                  Ah, you got me there with your quick, witty comeback. 3 weeks to think it up? Are you as thick as champ, or thicker?
