I made a mistake. Get over it. Compared to the happiness I have given people on this forum (mod: shurely shome mishtake?) it was a smallish mistake, a misjudgement, a miscalculation.
IMO anyone who is offended by some words has a problem themselves. They are all available throughout the net, in the dictionary, used in the playground, on TV, etc. You should educate your children, not try to hide the words from them. Teach them how to swear freely, intelligently, gloriously and when not to of course in certain company.
I have apologised, and edited out the offending words. Not much else I can do.
Your foul words weren't a mistake - they were deliberate attempts at being vulgar, crude and disgusting.
You were just showing your TRUE debauched nature. You're VILE!
What's particularly disturbing about your reaction is how you seem to think it was amusing to be so crude and base. You're gutter scum.0 -
You will note that earlier on in the thread I apologised to you for the slur. Quite often, in polite company, if someone has misjudged the mood, the moment, and then apologised, it is customary for the offended party to say something "Well I didn't like it, but as you've apologised let's just get over it."pickledpink wrote: »Your foul words weren't a mistake - they were deliberate attempts at being vulgar, crude and disgusting.

So how about it PickledPink? How about you and me bury the hatchet and for one night only call a truce?0 -

In polite company people don't voice the words you did.
And your attempted manipulation to try and make me think you're actually a 'nice guy really' doesn't work.
I'm sure other people can see through you too; you are transparent.
Let's just agree not to respond to one another. OK?0 -
Ok in a bid to make this friendly again (I missed the cause of the anger earlier)
I have a tumble dryer
I don't have a dish washer...well unless you count 3 growing lads who want pocket money.:rotfl:
I don't have a degree
But I do have a very high IQ
I also rent
But it's social housing
Erm where does that put me?
:rotfl: We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

I think a tumble drier gives you free pass to the 'haves' group.;)0 -
Aahhh but I think the fact that the door of the tumble dryer has to be wedged shut with a tin of paint might make me an almost have! :rotfl:We made it!

I agree - although it was the not swearing in front of women and children bit that made me quote prosecuting counsel in the LCL trial (-:...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

You don't simmer stuff for long on top of an Aga! You might bring stuff to the boil, but you don't simmer for a while, as it causes the temperature to drop.pickledpink wrote: »Mind you, NDP, your family have lived EVERYWHERE it seems - except near you.
Eh? I'm sure you are trying to insult me, but I don't quite get it.
But I'm not quite sure where you get that from. I was born and brought up in south-east London, where my parents and brother still live. About 6 miles from our flat. My Dad works a few tens of yards away from where I do, so I see him a lot.
My sisters live in my parents' country house in Kent, all of, ooooh, 55 miles away....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

We have a dishwasher
I have 2 degrees and a post-grad diploma
I rent, though, so like you, I'm chav scum
