I could understand the problem if he was living at your house - but this
is Usenet - just don't answer him if you feel it's gone on long enough.

 

There will always be people who differ on this point.

So I've heard.

 

shit - you're not coming to Ally Pally this year, are you?

 

Wel, I really don't want to talk ill of the dead, so to speak, but as
another current poster to this newsgroup is showing, it's possible for
one person to ruin the "newsgroup experience" for another. It did get
to the point that as soon as Anne posted anything she was attacked.

 

Paul Corfield? I don't ever recall having seen him drunk.

 

It's....complicated.

 

No, but I'm running a sweepstake on how long your malice towards him
will continue. My, you're a bitter man.

 

Look, I told you it was a fucking joke.

Jesus, Engineers have got *no* sense of humour. Twat.

 

What? Petrolcan fell over and his perception made him think it was the
bike that was toppling?

 

Of course, the joke here being that you're an engineer, yes?

 

Well, yes. 'cept I'm not really anymore.

 

It still works on many, many levels.

 

No, he walked over to his bike, and (I think) decided as the world was
swaying that sitting on a sensible BMW may help, somehow he then threw
the bike on the floor, and was left standing there looking gormless
wondering what hads just happened.

It was then that the realisation of how drunk he was set in and he said
something like "Fush ish, I'm pished aren't i?"

Heh. I are not an engineer, but I do play one on the internet.

And play at being one of an evening.

I am. But I make it a life rule not to punch people who have mates with
semtex.

Me neither, I was preferring to PetrolCan. Or something...

Tch! I'm not. That's some grubby little American institution that will
let anyone join if they're willing to pay. The IEE is completely
different.


Er... dunno why I bothered setting the mode in the first place, that
went without saying, didn't it.
