I do have to say that when I'd seen you'd put your degree down (especially with it being in engineering) I did giggle in an "aw, bless 'im" way.

You really needn't have done it. It's not becoming.

Yes, his post history seems to be one big rant, doesn't it?

Better not upset him though, he has an LLB from Manchester...
Do you think you are somehow going to "win" this internet argument?
Ive got news for you...
I'll be completely honest with you BSR. I'm not out to win. I'm just out to wind you up now!

How many of the responses on this thread now relate to the original point? I am hijacking your thread!

Honestly?
That is really your mission?
SO 2 pages after I said "Im obviously in the minority here therefore I will accept that I am wrong" you think there is something clever in running on to the thread to drag it out for 3 more pages?
I am genuinely totally and utterly confused as to why on earth you would want to do this?
It doesn't make any sense at all.
WHy? What is the purpose?

YOu sound like one of those ranting wierd groundworkers you see working on the roads.

Mr Pedantic spell weird... apply your pedantic rules to yourself will you.

You see... i doubt it... not beyond the tip of your little nose anyway !!
Oh I am so ashamed.
A man who can't use punctuation properly has spotted that I misspelled "Weird".
He is so clever and I am so stupid.
Well done Hemmingway.

You don't have to be ginger to be ugly, although it helps. Ginger fat and ugly is like the holy trinity of the unpopular in the playground world. Even being reasonably good at goalkeeping doesn't get you out of that one.

I see, well I am fat, ugly and strawberry blonde. I am however adept at tending goal. I cant form opinions of my own either, anyone want to bully me?

Boredom?

And I believe it was you who pointed out that the thread "was 6 pages long" as if it was your own personal achievement...

It's great being a bored nonentity who isn't full of his own self importance...!!!

On the other hand we do need a goalie, so you can play, but if you let too many in, you're dead. Got it, Coppertop?

Except for your degree. THat's important isn't it? Its a good tool to heighten the value of your opinion and attempt to devalue the opinions of others.
But well done anyway.
Congratulations on achieving your impressive goal of making a thread a bit longer.
Wish I had such a strong sense of ambition.

If someone says something that you agree with, there are one or two logical options as follows:

1)Quote them and say- yes, I agree with that
2)THink to yourself "I agree with that. Ive nothing more to add so I won't bother posting"

EIther are equally acceptable. Either express your agreement to verify thier opinion or don't.

WHat is not acceptable, and is in fact downright moronic is to quote them and type "+1"

It is a fking ludicrous thing to do. Totally meaningless. YOu cannot add a number to words. Maths doesnt work like that.

Can you people who do this just learn something from this thread:

JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE ELSE ON PISTONHEADS HAS DONE SOMETHING- IT DOESNT MEAN YOU HAVE TO DO IT TOO.

Let alone doing it at every opportunity every hour of every day.
Stop it at once.

I repeat: You cannot add a number to a word. It is totally nonsensical.

The End.


Edit: ANyone who types "+1" as a response to this thread is as unfunny as the people who do it for real. TOo predictable. 0/10 for originality.

Don't be ashamed, just don't be a daft bugger either !!

There is a difference between "can't" and "can't be arssed to spell/punctuate check my posts on the interweb when i'm banging out a flippant post".... can you appreciate that !? Well can you !?

Yes i am so clever and you could do with a combine harvester hair-cut !!

Thank you but my name is not Hemmingway, but for you and you only, you can call me Mr Hemmingway, if you like wiierdo !! hehe

Says the man who took his screen name from an ice cream flavour from the nineties, which in turn took its name from a children's picture book character from the seventies, who then started a thread to try and tell everyone he'd thought of it himself because "chunky" rhymes with "monkey"?
