RE: FAREWELL TO ENGLAND — Jolly 'OL England

Can you point out where I labelled you with the word 'prejudice' please, Galrads.

Although to be grammatically correct, in order to have labelled you, I think I would have had to have used the word 'prejudiced'.

RE: New change to Forum page

I use the mobi site via my mobile phone.

I appreciate that you're still working on it as I've had a few 'coming soon' messages, but I miss being able to quote on the forums.

I also find the blogs unusable. When I first started using the mobi site, I could only access the first page of each blog. I think now I can access more pages, but only see half of each sentence of the replies.

RE: Favouritism

Yeah, but what if Harbal is going through the memopause?

RE: The New York Daily News bestows an honorarium on Donald Trump

Am I accurate in believing there is some kind of a process for selecting presidential candidates, Conrad?

Only your post to me appears to lack either a logical basis, imagination, or both. laugh

RE: The New York Daily News bestows an honorarium on Donald Trump

It can be very difficult to break out of a role whilst remaining in the same environment.

If you elect an unsophisticated showman as president, he remains in the spotlight.

Unsophisticated, sensationalist journalists remain the audience and critics.

It was never a well thought out choice. At least not by the electorate.

RE: FAREWELL TO ENGLAND — Jolly 'OL England

How do you think I've labelled you in my post, Gal?

RE: Favouritism

Oh my, Harbal's snubbed Miwagi. stuck

RE: Favouritism

Oh my, Miwagi's flirting with Harbal! rose

RE: Favouritism

A bit like 'you can take the boy out of the backstreet, but you can't take the backstreet out of the boy'?

RE: Good Radio, Good Smoke

My daughter tells me I'm a badass grandma. I'd love to meet the others. giggle

RE: Good Radio, Good Smoke

It's lush and I'd gladly share it with you, Track.

It would be nice to have your company.

And in return, you'd get to see a posh, old Brit grandma get squiffy on 2 G&T's and the fumes off your smoke. I suspect that might be unmissable. giggle

RE: Good Radio, Good Smoke

I have some roast vegetables, nice bread and some G&T.

What are we listening to? laugh

RE: FAREWELL TO ENGLAND — Jolly 'OL England

I think you've just cited 7 Muslim mayors over a 10 year period, Galrads.

I realise the UK appears small to Americans, but I doubt that's even proportionally representative of the Muslim population, never mind a conquering mass.

Do you remember Grenfell Tower?

RE: The Bedroom, etc

Talking of which, I need to be up in a few hours. Nos da. wave

RE: The Bedroom, etc

No, I kind of scrunch up in state of exhaustion. laugh

RE: I want to start a family

Give it another 5 years, or so and you could be a grandparent.

After the day I've had I can confirm it involves as many hospital appointments and is equally as fraught as being a parent. stuck

RE: The Bedroom, etc

Yeah, but I can't even be bothered to toss, Merc.

RE: The Bedroom, etc

At least you're getting your leg over, Merc, which is more than most of us get.

I just sleep with a pillow inbetween my knees because they're getting a bit crunchy in my old age.

RE: Pillow talk.

Have you got it on the fridge, Slice?

I guess everytime the thermostat kicks in, it would be like one of those massage beds. dunno

RE: Pillow talk.

My pillows came from the pound shop. I don't think they have a talk function.

They certainly don't have a loop system, so I wouldn't be able to hear them even if I slept with my hearing aid in. dunno

RE: I love you, but......

I'm not sure who is in a relationship with whom, or what the nature of the relationships are from this message you cite Heavensmile.

However, each one of us can only live our own lives. We can only allow others the space to pursue their own lives, we cannot live their lives for them.

This message appears to be half allowing space and half interfering with someone else's chosen path. It's perhaps not quite as selfless as it's trying to appear.

It is difficult to respond to. It is perhaps emotionally manipulative, leaving someone feeling guilty if they pursue their own path. Maybe no response would be for the best, at least for the time being.

Maybe allow some time for everyone to find their own paths.

RE: REAL Life Pet Peeves

Okay, option 4, or 1, on hold for an indeterminate length of time. Hope you can stand the synthesised Bonny Tyler muzak and the premium call change in the meantime. giggle

RE: REAL Life Pet Peeves

That was a good effort John, but it lacked conviction.

I think we should try to at least appear more upset about our nationalities.

Y'know, like, if only we were real, live Americans like everybody else. crying

And not being funny, or anything, but you're a bit brown. It's like you've been holidaying in Marland, or something.

RE: REAL Life Pet Peeves

She doesn't like foreigners, John.

You can cry and wail at the disappointment and butt hurt of it all with me, if you like.

RE: Israeli snipers kill 16 Palestinian protesters and injure hundreds.

I had an Israeli lover when I was at uni. He was conscripted into the army and said they all knew they were targeting civilian populations when following orders, in breach of international law.

We know that the Americans, the allied forces, the Middle Eastern armies, everyone is guilty of war crimes of this nature.

My lover had shamed himself to the point he found it intolerable to live in Israel. At the point he thought he was going to die, he didn't take it like a man. He was held together with metal plates, his scars were numerous and healed. He was 20 years old when I knew him.

If people think it's their promised land, and God is in their hearts, they can share.

Sending boys off to kill women and children against their will, well, God isn't in the hearts of those in power and it has nothing to do with religion.

There is a difference between following a religion and being a murderer. This isn't about Jews, Muslims and Christians. It's about power, greed, hate and murder.

It's unsupportable.

A pupil cannot learn from a teacher who assumes the pupil is privy to the teacher's thoughts.

A pupil cannot learn if essential information is withheld.

A pupil can only learn from logical fallacy by challenge.

RE: The Biggest Mistake you can make is...

So, if I'm offended by the torture and execution of children, it's based on egotism and false beliefs?

I shouldn't protest, or take any action with intent to stop the torture and execution of children?

I shouldn't acknowledge my offended thoughts or feelings, or indeed feel offended at all?

Healthy repression and oppression all round, eh?
