Offensive? Goodness me, you must make snowflakes look positively robust if you found my comment offensive.

I'm not one to wield the SpaG baton for the sake of it, but someone who complains about those around them making errors, whilst making multiple errors themselves, is fair game.

Now run along and cry to your mummy.
You Pr1ck

You make comments and criticisms out of context and far from the spirit of this thread and the make a comment like cry to your mummy.

You Pr1ck.
I expect he will be back for another go shortly. I hope not because it's messing up the thread.

Knock it off chaps. His response to a post that included the term 'how am I supposed to soar with eagles ... ' was perfectly reasonable and rather obviously amusing.

You're in danger of turning Classic from the Mrs (Vol 2) into Inter-necine PH Warfare over apparent sleights (Vol 3,450).

You suggest we knock it off (which is what I was hoping would happen) then you stir it up again by taking a side rolleyes

I've just had to explain at length to my girlfriend that my moleskin jacket isn't actual made of mole's skin.

This wouldn't have been half as amusing if I didn't recently need to do the same regarding my camel coat.
To be fair to your girlfriend, she wasn't being completely daft regarding a camel coat.
Have you got a pair of crocs?
No; why do you ask?
Of course, pedantry matters and my coat is camel coloured wool.

We had a new one last night:

"What are you going to cook?"

"Spag bol"

"But I don't like mince! Can't you do meatballs instead?"

I can see her point, at least you have something to chew with meatballs...

I wasn't thinking of the colour; more the fact that camelhair is used for clothing.

Discussing concerts with the wife last night.

Her, "I've been to see Drake, Whitney and Nicky Minaj"

I replied, "Is Whitney dead now?"

Her, "Yes but I saw her when she was alive".

No S*** Sherlock.

other way round wasn't it, came out on the 8th, he died on the 10th?

So in the history of music has no artist ever had an album/song released after they had died?
