    I think I like it, but don't know what it means.

    I am therefore not sure if "eviscerating" you is a good thing or not.

    Maybe it's got something to do with !!!! in "!!!!-a-doodle-do".

    In which case, I think I'll pass.

    You are welcome to use it but only as part of the following sentences:

    1) Looks like the bears have eviscerated the bulls argument once again.

    or

    2) Ouch! I, a bull, have been eviscerated by the bear argument once again!

    Use them in good health.

    When interest rates go back up all hose new BTLers will be eviscerating themselves as average rents fall when housing ben and other cuts are forced upon the country.

    Yeah right, as the housing benefit cap keeps getting cut every year going forward, average rents around the country are actually going to rise every year? Yeah that makes a lot of sense???????????

    There are nearly 3000 people on the council waiting list around here.

    Don't count on the benefit capping lasting long.

    Well you are the only one I have ever heard saying that.

    You should tell all those protesting about all the cuts do not worry they will find the money from somewhere the cuts will not last long :rotfl:

    It does not matter how many people are struggling to find somewhere to live, if the government can not afford to keep paying out there is only one other option - Prices have to come down!
