    How do you know i cant afford bananas ?

    I dont even like them.

    I only buy them to throw to poor monkeys like you.

    That's very generous of you mate but owing to being sensible with my spending I've got a decent amount of cash in the bank and don't need charity.

    Gotta love the way the people urging everyone to be positive are so aggressive and rude when they post here. Is there some sort of rule that says you have to act like a bit of a jerk when you tell people to cheer up :rotfl:

    I dont remember urging you to be positive.

    I dont remember telling anyone to cheer up either.

    This was a joke i wouldn't waste a good banana throwing it at you.

    You realy need to lighten up and get a life how old are you?

    Have you never heard the saying we are here for a good time not a long time.

    Also there are no pockets in shrouds?

    You can save all the money you want but it wont make you happy getting out and spending time with real people will do that not wasting your time on here you seem an intelligent person you should get out more.

    You can ask with or without respect i dont mind.

    But the answer is that many spend hours and hours on here debating something that may or may not happen.

    I haven't been to a zoo recently, but debating on internet forums isn't something I tend to associate with a monkey

    I was merely defending someone who was being attacked for no good reason.

    You aren't defending one person against attack, you are instead attacking everyone else on the board.

    Not that I mind, feel free.
