    Yet over 40 thanked the idea of not saying anything if you've nothing nice to say.

    So based on a sample of 66, 60% think you suck. Good job!;)

    And 57 people who originally liked it didn’t like not saying anything, so that means based on a sample of 123 then 68% of people agree with what I say.

    You seem to use statistics like a drunken man uses lampposts – for support rather than illumination.

    Yes, I use statistics to support my argument.

    You do the same...it's just that the statistics, like your arguments, are nonsense.

    Wow, 26 people thanked me for my post (#8) obviously more people than I realised shared my sentiments!

    Oh you found your way back to this thread then?

    Shame.
    What if there was no such thing as a rhetorical question?

    Oh I didn't realise this was an argument? I thought it was just two people expressing their opinions? :rotfl:

    Argument. Noun.

    A reason or set of reasons given in support of an idea, action or theory.

    Why the need to come onto a really lovely and heart warming thread, and cause upset and discord?
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

    Today the video was going in this thread but a certain someone from the MSE team (cant say who just yet) was so impressed with how i did the proposal that it is going to be published on the site for everyone to see. It will be up on Wednesday morning :D

    By the way fufu_banterwaite you disliked the proposal and you're entitled to your opinion but you took it too far with that private message. I dont understand what your gripe is? We are happy, just leave us alone now.
