Don't be jealous. All the ingredients came from Lidl. The whole week I've been eating super rich foods from Waitrose. Wanted something plain and simple. A slight variation on fish and chips. Quite tasty.
Just eating some of the Leonidas Bon Bons I bought on a recent trip to the Netherlands. She cuts, I choose. No arguments then.0 -
Endgame...
No. You should use an old one that's got its own DVD drive. (Like I do.)
After all, you can afford one: you're so rich...
Keep digging.
(Going down to dinner, now, but don't let that deter you. Venison tonight. Red meat, red wine - so I'd be careful if I were you.)

I use my girlfriend's old stuff. I get her a new laptop and use her old one. New mobile; she gets it, I take the old one.
I'm not bothered about 'stuff'.
Is that what your mum cooked for you?
I've prepared Yellowfin Sole baked with a crust made with freshly milled peppers, extra virgin olive oil and sea salt...with chips, for myself and my girlfriend. Too lazy to go out.

Tries to leave the table and escape through the door by using the sentimental "Cute little Donnie" tactic, with "girlfriend" and "mum" well to the fore, using them as a shield.
You're a games player, Donnie. You've been getting away with it for a long time on here, using bullying tactics against posters less able or equipped than you. But you've finally encountered a professional who can, if necessary, beat you at your own game.
You tried your usual tactics, more or less in the usual order.
Opening move: "I'm so clever".
Challenged. Response: "I'm cleverer than you are."
Challenged. Oops, I made a bobo; I'll try to bluff it out.
Bluff. Didn't work.
Abuse. Didn't work.
"Prove it!". Backfired.
"Boring". Didn't work.
"I'm so rich I've retired in my twenties". Gamble. Dangerous move.
"You're an idiot". Didn't work.
"Are you still at school?". Desperate.
"Girlfriend" and "Mum". Help; get me out of here. (Unwisely coupled with "Aren't you jealous of me?")
For a games player, Donnie, you aren't very good.
Clearly educated (spelling, sentence construction, use of paragraphs, reasonable vocabulary), somewhat cunning, but impetuous, childish and not very bright.
So, what will you try now? "I don't have time for this: I've got more interesting things to do"? Probably tempted. But now I've pre-empted that one, you may attempt something different. (I can guess what.)
Advice. Stick to things you know about and stop trying to get your rocks off by being abusive to people on here.
(And don't let your "girlfriend" eat too many chips; you will regret it.)
PS.

That one will come back to haunt you.
Interesting remark, though.
:wave:
Don't laugh at banana republics. :rotfl:
As a result of how you voted in the last three General Elections,
you'd now be better off living in one.

All this for a DVD drive? Why not Bluray!0

Another painful to read thread :rolleyes:0

But you've finally encountered a professional......
:rolleyes: Speaking of remarks that will come back to haunt you....
There was me thinking that I'd given you a way out of your embarrassing argument.
But, being a fool, you just couldn't see it(much like your earlier argument against using a portable DVD writer).
Maybe you should heed the saying "Tis better to be thought the fool and remain silent, than speak and remove all doubt"0 -

I drop by on the off chance it's not full of sanctimonious drivel, but often you disappoint..

You win some, you lose some; that's life.
Don't lose any sleep over it.
