Lovely stuff, alfie. Not a word we see often on here.

Reminds of the time Jeff used 'oeuvre' when describing some j*zz singer.

Although he was being deliberately pompous whereas I suspect yours is accidental pomposity.

F*ck off, Tino, can you not see that I'm already grooming alfie?

Lived in Charlton for a bit a long time ago. Fully got cut off by the marathon.

We're not quite cut off but getting around can be a bit slow. I've been known to get livid about a lack of access to places I'd no intention of visiting.

Fist.

Looks like the mass shootings thread is going off on a tangent again, might have to tell everyone about the time I single-shotted a koala and her joey with a recurve bow. Used to love my job as a children's party entertainer.

Pity that Shah and Sean are incarcerated/dead as I suspect there would've been extreme p*ss-taking.

I do miss my morning times with Shah hope the dude is still climbing the corporate ladder

by Mind the windows Tino. Thu 27 Apr 2023, 11:35 am

Corporate ladder? I thought Shah just busted heads as a security guard? Maybe I missed something when I was dead.

Security guard as a job, Jihad as a hobby.

Lad was doing well, getting into management and shizz

Maybe he was Jerry Springer's manager... or his head of security perhaps?

I wish someone would hurry up and invent the cat dealership so I could trade mine in for a new kitten or two. She was cute for a while and then turned into a spiteful, savage little c*nt.

I disagree, I can see that you are someone who doesn't leave their little echo chamber so can't handle views they disagree with.

Your positions are poorly through out, poorly argued, and you lack the ability to engage with my ideas.

Your only responses are hissy fits, name calling and moral grandstanding.

I've had a few tussles with Duty over the years but have to say he has absolutely demolished Truss on the mass shooting thread. Ref needs to stop the fight.

Although I think Dooty needs to lower his expectations where TBone is concerned. He literally got busted having an argument with himself using an alias. That is the level of Truss's posting.

by **Galted** Fri 28 Apr 2023, 10:48 am

Whether you agree with Duty's opinions or not, he's in a class of his own when it comes to debating.

Was about to post the same. He dug out that survey by hand then buried the fat yank with his own shovel.

Duty will read this so... Anyway he's usually bang on about data just questionable about the interpretation. He is also, rarely for this kind of environment, happy to debate them rather than rely on using CAPITALS

FACT.

But is there not ultimately a sense of futility about winning an argument against a complete stranger on the internet? I mean, what's the point really? Mind you, I think that about life in general so maybe I'm not the right person to comment.

I think my cat read my post about cat dealerships. I was just scratching her chin and when she'd had enough, instead of savaging the offending hand she gently pushed my finger away with her paw.

I always entertained a misguided hope that the internet would make it impossible to cover up bullsh*t and that the truth would inevitably find its way out, but it just turns out that it makes it easier to find the amount of concurring idiots needed to represent your own opinion as FACT. Tw*tter is just a goldmine for this, I'll quite often see the same clip of a television debate with supporters of each faction claiming that their representative 'destroyed' the opposition. I reckon the Americans have the right idea about weapons, it's much easier to have someone paying attention to what you have to say if you're pointing a semi-automatic rifle at their forehead.

Did you ever watch Don't F*ck With Cats on Netflix. You'd like it been a cat hater. Good chance the main character was SerialDAVE.

I mistyped it and put F*ck with cats into Google. It was an eye opener. I'll never get those hours back.

Be careful what you wish for , Galted. I am currently blessed with two kittens : both are cute and adorable , but :

One has developed a habit of leaping onto my leg , arm or upper body without warning and immediately clinging on with her (impressively sharp) claws. No malice intended of course - and good exercise for her. But light clothing is insufficient defence and I am running out of band-aids.

The other has a particular interest in climbing onto the keyboard of this device. The other day she hit "delete" just in time to destroy a lengthy (and carefully composed) post on this very site - thereby undoing twenty minutes work and depriving the rest of you of some undoubtedly brilliant insights Smile

Has also attempted to access various addresses of her own choosing. Unsuccessful so far : both "n1111*66666666y!" and "111555....yCH7" produced the reaction of "Site not found" from the server. But I live in fear that one day she will accidentally log me on to some Dark Web Porn site and invite prosecution by the authorities...

Demands for breakfast at 5.30 am are just a minor issue.

Probably true... I'm familiar with the wide streets but not sure about the others.

I'm going down to Alfieland in a couple of weeks for a footy match (Carlton-Collingwood) and to catch up with an old friend... who's done quite well for herself. I'll ask about these claims, rIck, and report back to you.
