RE: Compound Words

Mousetrap

RE: Maria Helen

I am sorry to hear that, I hope you are soon able to forget.....

RE: Why are modern adverts, so manipulative n materialistic?

Everything in life is an advert, in a sense.

The clothes you wear, the car you drive, the opinions you espouse, are all an advert for who you are.....

RE: We want Brexit

The question now is, how long will it be before the British government finally admit that Brexit ain't gonna happen?

RE: Elephants evolving to be born without tusks thanks to ruthless poachers

Another thing communism has brought the world.

RE: What you watch mostly?

I like me some Hannity......

Good to see some sanity!

RE: Prison Riots

Most prison sentences could more constructively be replaced with corporal punishment. And save the taxpayers a fortune too.

RE: What you watch mostly?

Infowars is a great news site.

RE: Maria Helen

Good on them! This is very sweet.

RE: Are women over 40 really having a hard time finding a partner on dating site?

A slight twisting of my words there, friend.

What I said is that most 50 year old men would be perfectly happy to date a 20 year old woman, if they got a chance.

But the reality is that women tend to have hang-ups about age, and so virtually no 20 year old woman, in a Western context anyway, will date a 50 year old man. The afore-mentioned 50 year old man therefore tends to date closer to his age. My point is that this is not necessarily out of choice on the man's part.

For the record, I am 46, and most of the women I have dated were actually older than me. So there ya go!

RE: Ireland V New Zealand......................Rugby

Good heavens. I see Ireland actually have won. Wasn't expecting that!

RE: Should laws that restrict access to guns be abandoned?

Oh wait, didn't they do exactly that during the Cultural Revolution?

Now there is a lesson in where Political Correctness takes you!

RE: What you watch mostly?

An interesting tangent, Lee.

I must admit that I for one had assumed you are a bloke. No offence intended, if that is not correct.

RE: Are women over 40 really having a hard time finding a partner on dating site?

To sum up, I think that, having read some of the posts from women over 40 in this thread, we now have a much better idea of why they are finding it difficult to find someone!

RE: Do you play cards

I'm not sure if some of the folks on CS are playing with a full deck?

RE: What do you call a dinosaur who is the life of the party?

Here's one for you Americans:

What do you call a party of dinosaurs?

The Democratic Party.

RE: Should laws that restrict access to guns be abandoned?

No doubt the loony left will want to ban dogs next.

RE: black girls

It is an established fact, known by literally everybody, taht all Dutch people, without exception, are prone to sweeping generalizations.

RE: Guess Who!

Cher?

RE: What are the biggest dating profile No-No's?

I'd say the most irritating things is the "whining" profiles.... you know the sort of thing "I don't want this, I don't want that..."

RE: HILLARY CLINTON 4.0----RISE OF THE WITCHES

That wasn't a civil war, despite the frequent (and erroneous) use of that term in modern discourse.

It was a war between two separate powers.

A civil war, by definition, is when two or more forces are fighting for control of the same country.

RE: Do you play cards

Shuffling is surprisingly hard.

I have always wanted one of those electric shuffling machines.

RE: What do you call a dinosaur who is the life of the party?

Q: What do you call a dinosaur who is considering doing something?

A: Dino-might.

RE: What you watch mostly?

Exactly.

Mainstream news is just dumbed-down infotainment, interspersed with frequent Trump-bashing.

RE: Do you play cards

Sometimes. But not for money.

RE: What you watch mostly?

How about non-mainstream news?

RE: Billy Idol - Becomes American Citizen

A vaild point, although, to be fair, Dubai has a much higher percentage of non-citizens working there.

RE: Are women over 40 really having a hard time finding a partner on dating site?

Most women, yes, but definitely not most men.

Your average 50 year old male would pick a 20 year old woman if he thought he could.

RE: 2 words backwards

RE: Are women over 40 really having a hard time finding a partner on dating site?

As we have heard on other threads, plenty of younger men are interested in mature, and older women, but the women concerned seem to hate this??!!!!!!
