World Naked Bike Ride



Wow this is amazing, it's kind of like one of those chess
grand masters playing simultaneous games against 20 people.
I'm in awe of DR's ability to keep track of who has been
insulted, who is yet to be insulted but needs to, and who
needs to be insulted again.

taunt DRS but I draw the line at actually bothering to
respond to the rubbish opinions)

That's your problem, not mine. Get over it.

This is not a manual filing system. It's Usenet.

No Usenet guide to netiquette advocates top posting. It's
selfish and stupid. Only people who think they are more
important than their readers top post.

You didn't start this. It ws that ******** Andrew Morris. If

by now so the rest of us can get on with life.

You really must stop using words you don't understand.
What I wrote wasn't whining, it was a clever play on
your mistake.

You practically define whining, but certainly define
pathetic.

I think this really is going a bit too far. Verbal abuse and
wishing harm on somebody because they don't agree with your
personal asthetic sense of text formatting will probably do
nothing but lower people's opinion of you. It's just text --
read it and deal with it. Perhaps you need to take your own
advice and just get on with life.
 
No Andrew, little could lower peoples opinion of him
any further.

Whining that you don't whine. original, if nothing else.

Still whining and hardly clever, it was a standard 5
year olds response. still, that probably qualifies as
'clever' for you.

whine verb {I}

1 to make a long, high, sad sound:
- Leon's dog was sitting by the door whining, so I thought
I'd better take it for a walk.

2 DISAPPROVING

If you whine, especially as a child, you complain or express
dissatisfaction continually:
- Alice, if you carry on whining like that I won't take you
- do you understand!

whine noun {C usually singular}

an unpleasant high sound or voice:
- He could hear the sound of hammering, then the whine of a
circular saw.
- She delivered the speech in a high-pitched nasal whine.

whiner noun {C} DISAPPROVING a person, especially a child,
who complains or expresses dissatisfaction continually

I'm afraid this sums up your signature line perfectly well.
Still don't you get it?
