…pale will definitely not work,
trying to impersonate a Raven… :)

I’m flattered

Imitation is the highest form of flattery, pale imitations though they may be… ^_^

Not sure if I’m sane or not (especially these days!) but I do know that I love the way TMM writes. Very eloquent and articulate. Thanks TMM!

<blush>Awww…shucks, margaret…thanks!</blush>

That’s all I’ve ever seen offered from the subject poster…

He has that “I’m the only one whose sane, it’s the rest of the world that’s crazy” aura about him…

Even one? That’s predictable, as this is a lefty chat hall and it’s foreseen that even a first-day leftist poster will defend your lunacy.

Only predictable due to your reckless use of an absolute statement. Don’t blame me when you get caught with your own words.

Looks as if Wayne-o was the first jumper. How about…anybody sane?

First of all, you seem to be implying that Wayne is a “first-day leftist poster”, when in point of fact, Wayne has been here far longer than you.

Second, you seem to be implying that Wayne is insane. Care to provide corroborating evidence to back up that statement, or was it just a pointless insult?

Your posts looks as if you’re trying to look smart, as if you’re trying too hard.

Again, I’m sorry if the low percentage of errors in my posts irritates you so…but rest assured that I’m not “trying too hard”. As I said, I was raised to express myself concisely, and when I write, I tend to do just that…not by choice, but by habit.

A truly educated person wouldn’t brag about themselves 24/7 as you’re doing.

When have I bragged about my education? The skills I’m referring to were drilled into me in elementary school. I don’t brag, although I do decry the pitiful state of public education in this day and age.

There’a difference between irritating perfectionist habits and doing things correctly.

Care to enlighten me as to the difference? Should I manufacture a few errors per post, to appear more ‘common man’?

If we’re quite done with this subject, I’d like to ask if you would like to discuss the content of my posts, rather than their structure. Some of your previous posts seem to impugn my views…care to elaborate?

Do you have evidence that I am not sane?

Even one? That’s predictable, as this is a lefty chat hall and it’s foreseen that even a first-day leftist poster will defend your lunacy.

I guess you didn’t really get the point, dim-monkey.

Your posts looks as if you’re trying to look smart, as if you’re trying too hard. A truly educated person wouldn’t brag about themselves 24/7 as you’re doing. They’re the humble types, the low-key types. Do you understand?

There’a difference between irritating perfectionist habits and doing things correctly.

I enjoy reading your posts, and your opinion matters to me. Just saying, for the record. We’ll have to see if it “proves anything”.

Take it however you wish. Your opinion really makes no difference to anybody, one way or the other.

There are those here who would dispute that…and if even one person disputes it, your statement is false.

See why you shouldn’t make absolute statements like that?

I’ve been meaning to inquire about your redundant format.

Inquire away…although you’ll have to explain why you consider it ‘redundant’.

Why does your format look as if you’re trying to publish a novel? It rings a bell, one typical to that of an irritating perfectionist.

I’m sorry if error-free posts irritate you, TT, but I was raised to do things correctly. When I went to school, things like penmanship, neatness, and spelling all counted, which can give you a good clue as to how old I am.

And, you repeat the same righteous crap. Why is that?

Perhaps if you gave examples of the ‘righteous crap’ in question, I could supply a more specific explanation, but in general, I would have to say: because it bears repeating.
