kickingwithbeerinthemorning all feels the same to me, tbh. Maybe it's just the inane vibe.

Re: petty squabbling and bickering
So, you mean I can ask an Oceanic denizen to say, "House of Fish and Chips," and they'll betray their heritage, kiwi or aussie that way? If they sound Scottish, they're kiwi?frank lee bent wrote: ↑Thu Dec 28, 2017 7:06 pm like the canuckles, they sneak round under a false flag nefariously sewn upon their backpacks of the larger superior nation in order to deflect the consequences of their frequent misdemeanors. in fact they are the descendants of lowland scots- the lingual relics are unmistakable in the pronounciation of the words fish, chips, and house.
by these tokens shall you know them.
prove me wrong- you can't!
i won't even elaborate on the ovine theme, other than to offer the ancient motto:
NZ, where men are men, and sheep are nervous
Reminds of the movie, "Inglorious Basterds" with Brad Pitt and others. A soldier gone undercover signs the number "3" the wrong way (palm out or in, can't remember) and he is discovered to be non-German. Chaos erupts.
"by these tokens shall you know them"
I'm going to try this!
"Say House of Fish and Chips."
"Beg pardon? Whatever do you mean?"
"Say House of Fish and Chips, to prove you're not an Aussie!"
[ Urgently, in a strong Scottish accent. ]
"House of Fish an Chips! House of Fish an Chips!"
"Ok, you're in, sheep lover."

Not if there's a fire, not even if you hear the sound of a thud from my home and one week later there's a smell coming from there that can only be a decaying human body and you have to hold a hanky to your face because the stench is so thick that you think you're going to faint.
Even then, don't come knocking...Not for ANY reason.

Re: petty squabbling and bickering
I agree, he seems quite lucid recently. He still throws in a fair few cliches but mostly it's coherent and well written.Barang chgout wrote: ↑Thu Dec 28, 2017 7:10 pm Kid's been doing ok imo. Certainly no worse than some others....... ( myself included).

Re: petty squabbling and bickering
he is posting mostly with respect, he is on the radar of the fascist mods though, in case he may offend any snowflakes here.kickingwithbeerinthemorning all feels the same to me, tbh
see, using the bernays technique- we have collectievly modified his behavior
is that a good thing?
idk
ok. maybe it should be a topic, but i am not mussolini
here is the deal on this forum:
speak to people here just like you would speak to them to their face.
i think that covers it
feel free to cite this post widely
we have agreed on a crackdown on malignant postings now
it is not going to be like thaivisa or anything
we want liberty hall, just do not attack fellow posters in ad hom style. attack their arguments all you want- that is the purpose of this forum- fair debate and social twaddle
Re: petty squabbling and bickering
I too have thought this forum needs a place to vent. Not so much about other posters, but life in general.
Look for it; The daily bitch!

Re: petty squabbling and bickering
not bad synopsis.
ie replace "site" with K440

Squabbling
Please show courtesy to new members and answer their questions kindly with the benefit of your experience.
Too much baiting and squabbling here
Over modding and under modding are being complained of.
Better no need to mod

Re: Squabbling
It was all going really nicely until all those K440 wankers started turning up here!
