Should Bin Laden have been taken alive?

I thought that this thread might turn interesting, but it has just become annoying. What on earth are you people arguing about? No way is it going to reach page 17 when I announce that I am leaving.

Is there not some place else you can go to to debate with intellectual equals Miles?

No forum were you can go among your ilk and argue over who will be the next Orwell?

It's such a shame that you have to share your vast intellect with us unwashed masses of sheeple.

No, I am staying here because I am both stubborn and there are good minds here. Adam you seem to have a humour bypass, you miss all my one liners. I made that post because I was building up to my quite brilliant leaving on 'page 17' part. You buggers can argue all you want, I really don't mind. I actually quite enjoy it.

I have no intentions of being the next Orwell. Just as I am going to leave my secret album in the drawer, I am going to allow Bilbo to compile his favourite posts for my first book. I will be long dead, I won't care.

haha that is so true, even now with hornfinger he's arguing in all seriousness something that was obviously meant to be ironic about the name being incorrect

I think sarcasm just doesn't translate to some people unless you have a clear smilie next to it indicating you are being jovial.

But it is amusing to me. I miss Legion, we used to laugh in private when I would say something clearly as a tongue in cheek joke and someone would go off on me (often Adam it has to be said) and I'd just go with it and let it run for my own amusement which seems to be what hornfinger is doing here.

In unrelated news, I just voted and then went for my fortnightly tanning session. I am in love with the girl who works there. She is amazing. But she doesn't like me.

Have you also had a 'humour bypass' or do winking smilies no longer show up on your screen?

See this is the problem. To those endowed with the gift of subtle humour, having a smilie at the end is just ghastly, like putting canned laughter to tell the stupid when to laugh.

My motto is that if someone is so stupid that they may not see what I'm saying is a joke then really I don't mind offending them.

I always use them... too much of communication is non-verbal.

If you leave them out then most of what you write gets influenced by the type of mood whoever reads it is in.

Cheer up when you read my posts then.

Sure... and I'll just smile whilst beating my crotch with a meat tenderiser whilst I'm at it!
