  • I agree fully.

    No doubt that get's notched up as a win.

    But then, who really cares?

    Oh, that's a cue for my favourite forum related cartoon. :)

    Oh look. A collective round of mea culpa's and grumbles about the futility of arguing on the internet.
    Who could have predicted that. In october last year.

    Ah bless. Onto the ad hominem phase now.
    Empirical evidence suggests that this will go on for a bit, before a mea culpa moment and some self flaggilation for "falling to geneers" level, before running around the forum telling everyone that I'm on ignore.
    Textbook.

    Given the recent bout of self-awareness, I can't imagine we will see them all here again, pointlessly arguing over this issue or that. I mean, they surely can't be that hypocritical, can they?


    Still its nice that theres a support mechanism in place.

    Is that all the non-bulls lick on each other?

    EDIT: I've had to put an explanation on the bottom of the photo to explain it for 'dunce' geneer. You see, when we are at work or at home and bored, we might choose to fill a few minutes taking the p*ss out of someone on the internet. However when we are out and about in the 'real world' we really don't want to converse with nutters.

    Hopefully that clears up the joke for geneer. LOL, he's so slow! :rotfl:

    geneer talking to himself and quoting his own posts again

    is there any hope for this fella?

    "yeah right of course you did LOL".

    Funny. You wouldn't have thought this simple statement would take up dozens of pages, over multiple threads over 3 to 4 weeks.

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Own goal I'm afraid. Oh and also bonus points for effectively negating the intent of your original "effort" whilst simultaneously cutting across the whole point of the cartoon. Apparently arguing on the internet with strangers is exactly the same as arguing in real life. Bravo sir. ;)
