Looks like the chaps on here are playing a game of 'whose sport is the most macho'.

'Drag' racing is not macho..

I'd rather watch drag racing than cycling.

I would imagine you would be watching whatever your soon to be ex girlfriend tells you.

scrubbedexpat141

Now now, no need to get personal, if you're trying to get a rise I'm afraid you wont...If I can avoid being annoyed by my 5 year old nephew then I'm confident I can avoid people with your level of intellect.

I made a statement of fact that drag racing would interest me more than bicycle racing because it would, not to upset you or provoke response.

Oh well.

commander

lighten up...

oh i am of low intellect now am i?

because i dont spout mills and boon rubbish to complete cyber strangers?

you will do well here, befriend seven seas

scrubbedexpat141

I don't mind banter, but I wouldn't get personal. Perhaps different standards rather than intellect.

I don't spout m+b rubbish, I've asked a lot of questions and 99% of people on here are brilliant at offering help for the logistics of moving but also for the less scientific / black and white decisions that come with it.

commander

fair enough, you even abbreviated Mills and Boon. Paints a picture in itself to be honest.

Why not get personal,(as long as its not tooo personal and nasty) we are all pretty much strangers?

scrubbedexpat141

I don't get why you'd want to just be rude to someone for the sake of it? I'll have plenty of banter with mates and strangers but wouldn't go looking to cross any lines.

If that's what you want to do then fair play to you but I'm sure one day you'll get a dressing down that you will or will not deserve. Maybe that's why I don't do it. Maybe it's because in this instance I've asked a lot of the people on here and being rude is not how I've been taught to say thanks? Who knows mate.

Rossi take the piss out of Commander, we all do, he is the resident wind up merchant most of us just ignore him, he has a soft side which he reserves for the 25th day of every alternative month but it is there.

Where of course, riding a bike in skin tight lycra is......

commander

yea take the piss, have a bit of fun, lighten up..

We all take the piss out of Blue Cat also, she isnt really a person more a forum pixel, whose life primarily is to plug useless shit business's around the UAE especially some poncy hairdressing salon that obviously gives her a 5% discount on her blue rinse.

i come on here to get away from the seriousness of my work, family and other aspects of my life..

If i offend people by not taking the majority of posters on here (some of who would burst out greeting if faced with a days work) seriously, then so be it.

There are many posters on here i have respect for and many i think are oxygen thieves.

weasel central

thanks dude
