    !!!!!!. No-one else got your 'point', due to it being a stupid point that was incorrect and you were shot down because of this.
    Frankly, you're an idiot. Is your only motive on posting in this thread to try and stir up racial tension where THERE CLEARLY WAS NONE INTENDED ?
    When you grow up, hopefully you'll realise that you don't have to take offence at the use of a word and give it connotations that it was never meant to have. The word monkey was NOT used in this context as a racial epithet.

    Your bringing up other racist words, that no-one else has used anything like, shows your personality clearly. You are pathetic.

    I look at what you've typed and I'm not surprised that you don't get my point. Why call me names? Monkey is not a term that should be used to describe anyone, I find it offensive. You may not, but I and others do. If you find that unacceptable it's your problem to deal with as best you can.

    I can see 'slowhand' becoming a term of racial abuse ...
    You might as well ask the Wizard of Oz to give you a big number as pay a Credit Referencing Agency for a so-called 'credit-score'

    It looks like 2 people thanked your post. One of them thanked every other post in the thread too, and this is a common occurrence by that username, so that one can be discounted. So you were effectively 'thanked' by 1 single person, which in the scheme of things, is pretty much irrelevant.

    Thanks ;)

    Of the 1493 views on this thread, and as I said discounting the person who goes on thanking sprees for entire threads for no apparent reason, 1 person thanked your posts. Percentage-wise, that's pretty much as close to 0 or no-one as makes no odds :)

    edit to add, on that note I'm off to enjoy my weekend. Hope you have fun finding racism where it doesn't exist. Keep fighting the good fight :)

    You said no-one else got my point and clearly as you admit two people did..one would be enough to prove you wrong and you were. Could you be wrong also about the use of the word monkey when describing someone at the end of the phone? Y/N ?
