Fair point. All sorts of people manage to resist talking to him
though, and I don't know if that is his *sole* purpose, or whether he
just has a remarkably Des-centric view of life. I mean, we're *all*
self-centred, but it's not like we sit around waiting for the next Des
post so we can be snooty at him, or whatever it is we're (and by 'we'
I mean 'everyone who is not Des') supposed to do, according to him.
*sigh*

Yeah well. It's not as much fun when we can't throw them on a bonfire
anymore.

Utter rubbish, in fact. I've commented on this before: I don't
deliberately post inflammatory stuff, in order to elicit responsee (Christ,
this iMac keyboard is ****ez). It appears that my opinions offend more
than one, but my 'fault', i.e. where I anger the Clique and incur their
wrath, is that i) I refuse to shut up when they tell me, and ii) I don't
take their mindless (and unjustified) abuse without talking back.

Do you, perhaps, have in mind such mindless (and unjustified) abuse as -
well - this, for instance:

No, because the above wasn't abusive.

HTH.

Well, it certainly *reads* like a gratuitous and unprovoked swipe at Cab's
SO. Perhaps it is unfair to make the same demands of a Frenchman's use of
English that we would of a native English-speaker. Nevertheless, I would
counsel you to be aware of the fragile sensibilities, and the zero-tolerance
of syntactical or grammatical solecisms, which prevail here at ukrm ;-)))

I suspect that Des, perhaps more than others, is already aware of them
and offer that you consider counsel yourself, particularly in the matter
of Des and trolling.

You know it. I know it. We all know it; all except the man himself, of
course. No harm in gently pointing out the logical inconsistencies,
freelance insults and slapdash hypocrisies whenever they occur, though.
