As it's a cartoon, it don't bother me too much.

EDIT: Watched it all the way through, and it's a bit yuck, I guess.

Can't say I'm surprised at that. You often consider the day wasted if you haven't accused someone of making a fuss about nothing.

Meh, toughen up. It's a cartoon.
I'm well aware of that. Not all possess the stomachs of Master Ritchie, though. I think a cartoon is every bit as capable of being disgusting as any realtime footage TBH.

Ok, just had no particular reason to see how it pertained to me, which is why I asked. I'd ask why, but meh.

I of course realise now, you didn't actually want peoples opinions, you only wanted ones that agreed with you.

I unreservedly take back the comment, as it was clear bullying of you, and you only responded in a perfectly reasonable way. I am thoroughly ashamed of myself, tbh.

:rolleyes:

That much should have been pretty obvious really, I even stated such a thing. It's obvious that some people don't have a problem with it. I only want to see if there are enough who do for there to be good reason for the boss to ask for it to be taken down.

Still no excuse for your actual accusation, which had no foundation in fact AFAIK:)

I think there is excuse, TBH, you are often one to "dumb down" things in my experience. And don't do yourself the disservice of thinking it's only when I'm involved, although given my high activity I am naturally going to be more often than many.

Richard clearly you couldn't find an example of your actual accusation, so now your talking about "dumbing down", which I'm always guilty of, except when talking to you of course, then I'm very much "dumbing up".

Tell me one recent example of this quoted accusation please. When have I accused anyone of doing this. Not another thing you've just made up please.

Or alternatively you could just admit you were wrong, and made the accusation to belittle my opinion, as you often do to many members that disagree with you.

Or just say you were mistaken, ffs.

I can't say there is any example which comes immediately to mind, no. I won't retract the opinion, though, no, nor will I say it was a remotely spur-of-the-moment thought, because it wasn't.

You strike me as being one of the most "yeah, whatever" posters on this entire place, frankly. This in itself is a "criticism" of which far worse things have been hurled at people. What I said about "dumbing down" in the 2nd post is exactly the same thing I said in the 1st - dumbing things down, ie, saying someone is making a fuss that need not be made.

It is very rare for me to even think of belittling anyone on CW, however. Very rare indeed. As I said - I've thought far worse things about people than that they are laissez-faire. There are plenty of people on CW (who I respect far more than yourself) who I'd say something fairly similar about, in fact.

So, basically the answers "NO". Its clearly not the same thing. and you know it. Walls of rhetoric make no difference, Richard.

Lovely dig in the last sentence too, almost belittling to say you respect many more people here then me, but clearly it isn't, you said you don' do that. I could respond in kind, but meh*. Goodnight Richard :D

*Proving you right all along about my apathy, so I congratulate you.

I don't really see any point skirting the fact that I have little respect for you, it's hardly a secret.

But then that's not a true representation of people's opinions on whether or not it should be taken down. If you have ten people reply agreeing with you, then that could be reason to take it down. But if there are 50 people who think it should stay and have perfectly valid reasons for that, then that should be taken into account, and we wouldn't get to hear that side of the story if only those who agree with you posted.
