hahahahaha Oscar Childe more like it as remember I'm only 17 according to you....... I wish.

Yeah, I am a bit ADHD but that's because on the Jungian types personility tests I'm classic ENFP.

I'll bet you're INTJ-------?

Tell me later.... My darling husband wants to take me out for dinner. I hope he doesn't suggest Swiss Chalet!!!!!

For what it's worth if you are always trying to be a catalyst and argue with people then naturally if they've never met you they will probably percieve you as rude, abrupt and arrogant and not like you.

If you make an effort to get to know people and then debate with them in a healthier way you are more likely to cultivate friendships.

It's not re-inventing the wheel but I recommend such books as "Negotiating to Yes", "How to Win Freinds and Influence People".............. You can actually speak to people and challenge them with out getting them so offside- that is true intellect.

I think even Wilde would be hard pressed to come up with such devastating calumny.

i'm actually tryin to work out whether your at no 2,3 or 4 on oinks list!

havin a healthy online debate doesnt normally include being rude by callin people thick because they may post a message differently to you, i think that was actually uncalled for an would think that they deserve an apology imo

i would also think there are also a few individuals that as you've so kindly come on an thoroughly enjoyed yourself by winding up, are probably hopin you have a lovely dinner an are hopin you dont get overcharged or get mawled on the bus home by a rabid dog, have a lovely evening.

How thicke am I. I thought the number was a reference to an imperial measurement of your weight.

Still, enjoy your dinner and try not to entertain the other diners too much with your rapier wit. Maybe a forewarning of the fact that you're a little bit wooooah and a little bit waaaaaaay could help calibrate the onlookers. That said, i'm sure they'll just be chuffed to be in the presence of what looks like Jo Brand

After reading this drivel of a thread I've actually changed my mind on the whole culling debate.

Dear James,
You seem to be under the misapprehension that I have no friends. I have more friends than I can handle. I neglect people horribly,because unless people are really amusing I lose interest, all except for about 3 really close friends who I love no matter what.

I wonder what you would consider a healthier way to debate? while eating a salad perhaps?

You stick to reading those books and get back to me with your superior intellect....I'll look forward to it.

el richo ----- I don't know who Jo Brand is not being much for the telly,but yes, I'm not that fat, but the attitude could be me. I have always identified with Patsy from Ab Fab she's definitely like me.

What's a Brit doing with a Mexican handle?

scottandsel, You're a bit weird yourself girl, I like it. If my IQ is 17 then yours must be about the same.

The dinner was blahhhhhhhhhh ,but we had a nice walk, skimmed some stones in the lake and watched the sun set holding hands, wished we were on Glastonbury Tor instead, soon!

Dear Kate

Salad's aren't always healthy- that's a myth.

On planet Kate I'm sure you have lots of freinds.

Maybe you should read books too then you might be more interesting.

I found you amusing initally- more laughing at than with but like all clowns the act soon get's tired.

I remember you remarking somewhere that Canadians were "passively aggressive". Open your eyes that is to you only.

I'm off to read my books I think I have an Oscar Wilde somewhere or maybe even a photo of paint drying to stare at.

James

Actually, I think I agree with that ^^.

Kate has potential to be a human being but unfortunately doesn't want to grasp the opportunity.

Schade.
