India is choking to death - why isnt Greta over there?

[walrus]

So Larry you are artistic so does that give you a free ride to carry on as you do.!
What it does it leaves us with a problem it seems to me you are very compulsive and you are angry with other that don't see things in the same light as you.
Your a artist as well you are talented but my word you are heavy going remember there are other on the forum you need to remember that regardless your on a different wavelength in what you believe in.
So Larry show some leeway to others and stop looking for fights I make no apologies for giving you stick weather your artistic or not remember you kick me I will kick you back but harder.!

Except i have never kicked you. Never said a harsh word to you. Given you an easy ride mate, absolute carte blanche while you have constantly stuck your oar in sticking up for Brock, Gandalf, and the rest. You want to believe i am angry then believe away but as a Brit you should know better. I have always called a spade a spade because i assume we were all big boys here and it turns out most are just soft lads with a victim mentality. A lot of the crap they come out with is simply inexcusable but you always have an excuse.

Seriously you guys need to lighten up. Think about how ridiculous it is for you all to constantly refuse to step out of the party line and just gang up instead of consider another point of view. Look at this thread and how Gandalf has admitted how nauseous he feels when people are positive about stuff he has no time for. It is a completely mental way to live your life.

This thread poses a question but really it was a shit stir form post one. I answered the question but people were not interested in truth or reality.


The FACT is what they were looking for all along is justification for the repulsion and hatred they all felt toward a 16 yr old girl who they all think should know her place. That is God's honest truth. And for grown middle age men that is pretty lame stuff.

Even those you lot call Snowflakes would be embarrassed by the stuff in this thread.

Greta is not saying anything new is she,? we have heard it all before have we not.!!!
We have all had problems with ourselves and family airing one's dirty laundry in public does not good what so ever.!
But you must admit you do go in for the kill and you give no quarter so in the many exchanges with Miles Lyle Brock etc myself included I tried very hard to be not involved but alas you did push buttons.
You not a stupid person but you have been acting stupid with others I used to enjoy the forum but it's a battle ground I am no 👼 but neither are you and we are all as bad as each other things have got way out of line.
Fuck I am 60 in march time is going by I would like to see Steve back Brock and may be if the mods think fit let him back.
To start a fresh more of a bunch of friends and not like the bunch of twats we have turned into sad indeed because we were friends were we not we had a laugh.
So MODs give Brock a chance and maybe just maybe you can see if we get along.!!!!

Thanks for being the grown up Rich. Yes it is true I do come out swinging. I think because a lot of us do not feel the need to be join in with a lot of the banter in your group it is seen as being aloof when in reality we all get along fine and talk together outside of the forum despite being very different.

Nobody is as blunt and offensive as me and a lot of that is down to frustration with the fact that what was once a Saddo for all, is now an us and them place, with very divided factions.

It has become increasingly polarised and I really do not understand the thinking behind a lot of the attitudes you all share and the opinions you guys post everyday.

The easy thing would be for me to just give up and leave you guys to it but the reality is a new victim would be sought out.

Master, Ryanman, Kirk, whoever would have to be the odd one out. I know you all do not see it like that, but it is what it feels like on this side of the wall you have all built around yourselves here.

Nah the easy thing to do would be to stop taking it so seriously and realize differing opinions thousands of miles away on a forum should cause you no issues with your stability.

I am so glad that we all are saying that we all are guilty. if I'may generalized a bit it seems like certain posters get more personal and tend to insult people's physical appearances and families. I think it is a cultural thing hey if you have certain types of insults I'm more or less acceptable in different cultures and the other cultures was on the receiving end can I call you digest what appears to be highly insulting and having down a bit too deep and far it is a very interesting phenomenon. I can never understand how certain things bother one type of people while at the same time not bothering another type of people

How neat to see you kids making up again. Makes Israel and Palestine look like the Treaty of Paris, but bless you all.

Someone needs a hug.

The insults thing isn't cool. I tend to do it when insulted myself and it ends up a duel to the sharpest edges. It doesn't run deep though, I say it to say 'How does that feel? Not very nice, right?' We can all do better. I am not a monster, but I can get mean if pushed when I don't know why. Far more human than sociopathic really. A long way off from my Halcion Devils advocate days, but still a fiery forum volcano at times.

Beanz claims to be the most aggressive poster, but many of us can be too, and I am definitely one of them. I guess being called a loser gets to me sometimes. It shouldn't as I am a reasonably successful person in my field, but I guess it brings up images of homeless shelters and things which I have spent all my life avoiding and which was of course not my fault as a child. I get prickly. I have worked hard to be not be a loser, to not fall into those traps, to not be a nihilist. I try with every day to do something.

My thing about not hurting children is very sincere and pure and sure I can sound cynical about adults, but it is only because I hate to see children hurt. I am someone who for years has been against bad parents and passing down debt to the next generation. I wouldn't be like the Taliban as argued but a fair parent and fun. It won't happen though as I am too old and if we are going to be fair to the environment then I have more than enough nephews and nieces already.

On the environment of course I want a clean planet. Less plastic, more nuclear and so on. In the olden days milk was in bottles, why did they do away with things like that? Why all the packaging on Easter eggs and why bother with Christmas Crackers? Aren't they silly? So yeah, I don't hate Greta or anything and was teasing with the squinty thing. I just think it is all a bit manufactured in terms of her backing. I love nature and don't want lung cancer. Of course I want a clean planet.

I won't bring up families again, but I am not much of a loser. I don't sit on park benches drinking whisky from paper bags or anything. I go to work and function like most people. I do my best. Kind of ordinary really.

Any how the climate is changing is it man made may well be.
I think the people in Yorkshire who's homes have been devastated by floods would have something to say about it.
I have to think has a November ever been so bad the weather is terrible shit I live on the hills so I am lucky.

[Fatboxingfan]

Good points all around. Seems like we are all making progress. Let's give credit now to someone who made the first conciliatory move, and that is Beanz. Without him saying what he said this would not have gotten off the ground at all.

if I have ever said or done anything that genuinely hurt someone's feelings, I DO APOLOGIZE NOW AND FOREVER.
