I aint miserable, I feeling fantasic, because Im gonna be one of these...'british youth representitive'....now could someone please explain what it involves

[jester]

Fucking hell. My model social structure gets better and better. Now Martins appointing a government and giving out medals.

Ettiene. Calm down. I wasn't dissing you, I was pointing out that you don't know everything about British Culture. You were basing your comments on a really tired British Stereotype made popular by Ali G.

Text language is a legitimate means of expression for a large and popular subculture.

I'm sorry if it makes you angry.

Oh and Peter.. back for a fix I see. Had breakfast yet?

texting talk is over now, we're talk about these - me being a british youth representitive we're having a proposal on that, the jesta free room where you can breath, and your nicely mended leg

[jester]

The Jester free room is brilliant. I can't post in there, if I do I've lost, if I don't Peters Won.

I notice that Le Pire was straight in there in a huff.

Jester,

I'm not angry, nor ever was. As for "basing comments on a tired british stereotype popularised by Ali G," wrong again. I was basing my comments on years of personal experience in your country.

No matter how many times you repeat this, it will not make it so. Just like George Bush repeated over and over that Iraq had WMDs. Sorry!

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go listen to the Cheeky Girls and Blazin' Squad. Sara Cox rules!

etienne

p.s. There's only one "t" in etienne.

[jester]

You weren't in a huff. What the hell were the flames about then. Or was the swearing in the lecture on language and expression a kind of contradictary oxymoron that I failed to pick up on.

I will never apologise for the Cheeky girls. Only in my great multicultural country could to Eastern European Twins top the charts with lyrics like "This is Life Touch my Bum."

We shall have to agree to differ, but I think just cos you don't like something, it doesn' mean it isn't legitimate.

[jester]

.l... I'm too embarrased to ask... but who are blazing squad?

how about this is life touch my bum, not yours

[le pire]

In a state of perfect calm:

fuck fuck fuckity fuck fuck.

The swearing was my legitimate form of self expression. Fuck is, after all, in the dictionary.

The TXT thing is really played out. See: Jester is boring comments.

Blazin' Squad is a chav boy band.

fuck actually stands for:

Fornication
Under
Consent of the
King

one of those little interesting facts i picked up doing ren faires. it was a legal order. dealing with women who refused to sleep with their husbands. if you did so, you could be ordered to "fuck" your hubby. "from unlawful carnal knowledge" hardly makes much sense, does it?

the thing about this thread which kills me is that jester and magrat are seemingly oblivious to the condecending/patronizing tone which is being used in most replies to them...

i'll forgive magrat - she's young... in a position so esteemed as that as BRITTISH YOUTH REPRESENATIVE i'm sure she'll wise up sooner or later.

jester... for someone older than i am - you are impervious to the subtle finesse of the english language... sadness, sadness. you think people actually are upset at things which have been said to them in this thread? talk about delusional.

but, you go forth and conduct your "social experiment..." that's fine and well... i still say that you are obsessed with martin and trying to get him to pay attention to you... and, of course - martin is very patient... wheels spinning... wheels spinning...

the thing is: now that you know, jester, that we are onto your game you feel the need to justify it. you flip-flop worse than a dying koi on my living room carpet (we've had an issue with fish tank escapees today...)

i don't know if this is an adroit maneuver or sheer stupidity on your part... i would like to (because i'm nice) grant you the former; but, i'm somewhat convinced that it is the latter which is the truth of the matter.

a good conversational spar is always fun to either participate in or read... though, i'm thinking that the match up is a little unfair. martin, etienne, peter, eric, et al... we all should be fighting with one proverbial hand tied behind our backs... you know?

anyhow - it's damn near 80 degrees here today... i'm off to take my dog for a walk in mclaren park.

ta-ta,

I've been typing with one hand behind my back for the whole thread.

I haven't even got out of 1st gear yet and probably won't need to.

[firegirl]

yeah... me too.

not too much of a challenge, eh?

[Peter Voice]

Actually, I believe I checkmated the fool 12 postings back.

He's a bit like Monty Python's Black Knight without the humour.
"Come back, come back, I can still bite!!"

Yeah, right.
