    It's not our fault if you can't afford a house. Maybe retrain in something, or get yourself a bird and buy together?

    Condesending? Ignorant? Unhelpful? just some of the words which spring to mind.
    Contrary to popular Bull wisdom, some bears actually have decent jobs, and some cash (and occasional girlfriends too)!
    Perhaps I dont wish to spunk my hard earned money on somebody elses NE. Just maybe I'd like to bide my time and wait for the market to drop further. Then I'll get better value for money and satisfaction in not pandering to the insane ramblings of a fat bull!

    Now is there anywhere I can rest this case? It seems to be full of irony and hypocrisy.

    Oh but I wasn't flaming or baiting anyone, just point out a fact of which the evidence is littered all across these boards. :T

    What a great thread about bulls baiting.

    Posts 1-7 are just baiting of the "bulls" on here.

    Is the OP confused or just not able to read the baiting by his/her own group?



    What a tag team you make.:rolleyes:

    Don't play holier than though if you do the same your self.
    I aint defending either side but it is plain to see you and other take part in the same posts/abuse which you are moaning about!

    So how about cut the pathetic "bears do this" "bulls do that" post and debte actualy things that matter rather than "your gang did this".:rolleyes:

    the last thing I'd want to do is bail out an over leveraged bull. :beer:

    Thanks but I am happy waiting this one out with my deposit as the last thing I'd want to do is bail out an over leveraged bull. :beer:

    To be fair i think we could all agree that their are posters like that on both sides. EG look at the start of this thread.

    Yeah I agree there are some on both sides.
    I just think that there seems to be more uber bulls who congregate in packs and pick off "non-believers" with their inane jibberish

    I'm off to pay my contribution to my local innkeeper's pension fund.

    see you later.

    Guys I'm not sure making light of Chunkys dire financial situation is very fair. Whatever happened to compassion?

    It's people like you who are partially to blame for this bubble as not only couldn't you buy a house without committing fraud you can't even live decently and pay its mortgage with 1 salary. :rolleyes:

    I think that this whole thread, which was started by the aforementioned Shakerbaby, is ignorant and unhelpul.

    To be fair if you set yourself up as a bull and posted you would find out it is fairly even :) (I could give you some names I have had a lot of trouble with)
