To whom was your remark @ 16.14. directed?

[ToraToraTora]

another thread ruined by the moaners!

[Mamyalynne]

It was in reply to Ummmm regarding why the OP uses the wording he does.

[Mamyalynne]

I made a decent reply regarding prescribed meds - 20mg of LSD versus half a bottle of Oramorph for example?

[wolf63]

Its funny that some people need to take drugs to make them go on 'trips' and I have to take drugs to prevent me doing so.

And from 1980 to 2004 I actually worked for a living :-)

[Jackdaw33]

In which case I apologise Mamya. I thought it was directed at me as it followed on from my translation post.

[AB Editor]

It is very annoying as it interrupts the normal flow of the thread. I have no idea why you do it, as you haven't always peppered your posts (in your previous lives) with cod-cockeny-slang. It's a fair recent affectation.

You'd get better answers if people could be bothered to translate you. I feel you're missing out on some of the discussions you could be having.

But then, maybe you don't care.

[Mamyalynne]

That's fine Jack, I can see how it may have looked like that - happens on fast moving threads.

[ummmm]

He does it because he knows it annoys some of us.

[ladybirder]

I quite enjoy trying to figure out the odd bit I don't get. I must be odd.

[Jackdaw33]

Very likely true, ummmm. He's a little rascal.

[Jackdaw33]

I agree, Ladybirder, but then I am odd. Took me a whole minute to work out 'flowery'.

[emmie]

what ever floats your boat i guess, can't see the benefits myself but if that's what they want to do, as you say let us hope they are not in positions of power, i.e in teaching for one.

if the thread's been ruined, maybe it's by people trying to figure out what you're saying. Why not just post in Wolof or Quechua and leave people to put it into Google Translate?

[ummmm]

I don't speak rhyming slang and I can't fathom why someone would use it when trying to debate an issue.

TTT is ruining his own threads.

[ToraToraTora]

oh dear, alans in a brahms again ummmm? and you DO know that one!

[pastafreak]

Hmmm...did TTT even bother to read Ed's comments? A bit silly coming from a grown man...and I don't mean the Ed!

[jno]

I expect he's trying to think of rhyming slang for "editor"

[ummmm]

No, I don't know that one. I tend not to retain useless information.

[ludwig]

What a load of old pony about ttt ruining threads. It's perfectly obvious what he's saying. If his contributions are annoying, just ignore them.
