Bakerboy - come this evening a wave of Ramadan peace will spread over this forum. Stay and you might even enjoy it.

don't feel like you have been singled out - this place is a refuge for piss-taking misfits.

Methinks there's a generous ex husband somewhere in the mix.
I haven't read the rest of this thread but that is truly one of the most sexist things I have ever read.

Indeed. One should see it as a testing ground. If one gets too easily irritated by the playful banter on here, one is unlikely to succeed in the maelstrom of frustration that is life in the Middle East.

Toodle-pip!

Baker boy Your sensible question was asked on a thread you started re Christmas day lunch.

Your 1st post 12.20
This will be my first Christmas in Dubai.
Where would be the best most festive restaurant serving A la carte on Christmas Day Evening?
where do you normaly go ?


My reply

A lot of places do a Christmas Brunch. There is so much choice and price ranges. Wait until nearer the time and All the hotels will start advertising. Plenty of Christmas Dinner options too. Christmas is lovely here. More decorations and Christmas spirit than you will find in the UK :-)

Oh ...and welcome to the Bored.


There were then a lot of posts with the usual banter re the pros and cons of Christmas and early celebrations.
You came back on the bored at 8pm and this was your 2nd post

Ok ok ok, So some of you are so Scrooge like maybe it is best that you sit indoors with a plate of dates, a Black Sants's hat saying Bar Humbug to all those people Happy to follow the tradition in a non Christian country!!

For me, I will give the cook a day off and me and the partner will go out and have some fun.. First the Beach though, so Brunch is out.... Maybe an Egg and Bacon sandwich and a glass of bucks Fiz to get the day going....

OOH, I wonder if I can get some of the miseries on here to sing the theme tune of Eastenders so I dont feel home sick... All Practice now: "DA DA DA DA DUM...."

So, Christmas tree up at the end of November, Cards sent Mid-November and Bucks Fiz from the 01st Dec.....


I replied
and besides being a Twat.....You are?????


Your 3rd post! 9.02
Look, we all have something to bring to this discussion. But I think from now on the thing you should bring is silence.



and it goes rapidly downhill from there with you insulting Autonomy as well.
In the meantime you also entered another thread about 30 mins before most of the above started and amongst other things posted this...

An overweight, over-the-hill, nicotine-stained, borderline-alcoholic homophobe with a superiority complex and an unhealthy obsession with male bonding?”

Am I close??

which was in response to a comment that Auto had made which had nothing to do with you.
You then went on to attack Millhouse with
Any similarity between you and a human is purely coincidental!
Besides the posts that you and I had.
And you then cry cos you think you are being bullied!!!!

Please remember that not all personalities are the same. You, me and others have no right to have a go at someone without expecting a response..... Indeed

And it was a posting on another Middle east site that commented on this site. In fact quiet a few people commented that the site was unfriendly.
I have to agree - I was willing to give it a go though. Only a couple of people answered, the rest were taking the pee. Re read your thread, it goes the way most threads go on this board see comments above!
Do you really feel people act like this in real life? As you know, it is easy to hide behind a joke name and picture. I normally find that people who act in a condesending way normally are not what they seem in real life. In here they can pretend to be somebody they are not. Or they are simply bullies. who i absolutely detest.
If I found this from anybody in my employ or if any of my friends acted this way, they would be out.
You are right, I was a regular visitor to DXB, but now spread my year living between London and Here.
May I ask whay your employ is?
Anyway I have given far too much time to this subject..just goes to show how bored I am today
Bakerboy, stay or go, it is up to you but most newbies, once they get the feel of the bored, quite enjoy it.
Ramadan Kareen to all our readers.
