    Is this lyrical_gangster geezer weird or what?

    I've had more private messages from him alone than I've ever received from the rest of the forum members put together.

    Maybe he is just lonely? :eek:

    I've just noticed that all his posts have disappeared.

    I did forecast in an earlier post that he may disappear up his own ar******. Looks like I got my assumption right!

    I think he's just deleted his posts on this thread...maybe because he achieved what he set out to do; turn the discussion to be more about him and his alleged intellectual prowess.

    He clearly assumes others are less intelligent than him and he certainly doesn't see his attitude as a problem.

    He'll be back...

    Was never about me. I just made a joke about the way someone phrased a sentence, and they then decided to overreact to it. Which generally, I'd say these are the type of people who get bullied in the workplace, at school etc - natural victims who can't understand banter, so take stuff overly personally.
    :):):)

    And you are/were?...
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    Looks as if I was right; Looks like I was right; I was right; My assumption was right; etc etc.

    Are you sure you were journalist? Which publication? The Beano? Viz?

    Looks like the village idiot is back under another name. :rotfl:

    so you think having a 'bit of banter' and ' a ;laugh' is appropriate when people are facing real financial hardship?

    you take over a thread where people are asking for help for your own amusement.
    thats how you help ' the poor'
    they aren't a sub species by the way.
    they are normal people trying their best ( on the whole) and you see fit to use them for your amusement.
    am i the only one who isn't laughing?
