    I'm happy to not win something if I'm not capable of winning it. That's life.

    If you're too stupid to work the answer out then have some self respect and retire gracefully. If you're too stupid to get the answer when it's hidden under a little grey bar or so stupid that you don't notice the answer when it's already been given in the thread then I think natural selection will probably deal with you itself, next time you try to cross a road or change a lightbulb!

    Re: those long lists of prizes won in signatures. Remember the Harry Enfield character whose catchphrase was "I am considerably richer than you"?
    Then why come to MSE...it is in the spirit of this place where everyone helps each other.
    At some point every one of us have listed competitions and given answers...we give and we take...personally I don't think it isn't in the spirit of anything....it is mutual friendship and assistance.
    We share..someone else may win a comp where I give an answer..and I am as pleased about that as if I had won.
    Please, if you don't understand, do not be here. But think before criticising:confused:
    Good Luck All

    Kindly don't make assumptions about people you know nothing about it is insulting.

    I for one am not stufid I have an Masters degree which I passed with honours but unfortunately I suffered a serious , sudden brain injury which means I am no longer able to do many of the things I enjoyed.

    I am so please i found such a friendly bunchof people who help each other out and are genuinely pleased by anyone getting a win.

    You obviously spent time reading the previous comments or, you are the same person who began all this but with a different signature which wouldn't surprise me as the language style and content bare a remarkable similarity.

    If you don't like the community you do not need to join in unless your life is so shallow that the only way you get your kicks is by slagging other people off.

    :cool:
    If at first you don't succeed try, try, try again.

    then, i find that people are moanng, erm, so call me a bit confused.com!!!!why are they looking on this website? and further more, crikey!!!! they are up in THE early HOUR'S (un-intentional joke there, lol) posting moaning posts!

    so here's a BIG THANK YOU to all those that are being helpful!!!! :T (and the other's well, i'm far too polite to be drawn down that alley:mad:)
  • Thank you to everybody who provided the answers.
    I got a few on my own,the salt one was a bit obscure for me.

    as for the person who keeps registering to back up their own argument, so sad!! :rolleyes::rotfl:
    Wishing you a lucky 2023: 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
  • I do hope it's not being insinuated that I am the one posting here under various different guises. You're welcome to ask an administrator to check IP addresses...you'll find that you're sorely mistaken.

    I said my bit about how I didn't exactly agree with all aspects of this forum and 'comping' in general and then I moved on.

    I just find myself compelled to pop in and see how people are getting on with the competition. Todays answer had me stumped for quite some time...I've a feeling the next few questions might be toughies.

    I can definitely confirm that I'm not anyone else on this board. I'm just an individual with an opinion, like everyone else. I agree with some not with others.

    Love this comment though -

    "Maybe we are not all super brainy, or ever passed an exam (although does have a Dd taking 14 gcse's including Russian, Italian & Spanish at the moment all at A*/A apart from textiles and games which are a/b. She already has gcse Latin & German A*)."

    Sorry, what's your point?. Are you suggesting your lack of knowledge is somehow negated because you've managed to spawn genius offspring? Maybe she could help you with the answers?
