What a retard

My response to that question would be "yes if you can stomach wearing slip ons in 2ft of snow in minus 30, or snow boots inside a nice heated office"
Oh I think I remember that one, when you were at the bank?
Most of us have been into the retard zone, some more than others

No idea why BC feels the need to try and belittle me because of them.
I'm sure he didn't mean it that way!

Ahh you will be okay!

Just don't ask anything which BC may feel is silly/idiotic/retarded and thus feel the need to belittle you, then you will be fine!

oh for heavens sake - and you are thinking that its the select few that pick on the others??????


I think you will find you are wrong and that everyone bar NONE has had some sort of run in with someone else.

Its real life (granted on a screen) and sh1t happens.

I started this thread cos its funny - no malice intended, and Amy whilst I think you may have taken things too personally we seem to be veering back into the name calling that got DBD banned, Butch I don't think you really needed to be sooo specific with the comment.

The "dumb questions" on here are tongue in cheek and when you move over here you realise that. Kind of a Homer Simpson "DOH" moment.

Lighten up guys this was meant to be fun

Well, it's likely quicker to open "a" bank account in the UK but whether or not it'll be of any use to you when you get to Canada is another matter.
