No (just to get the last word in) the problem is that you can't even insult someone in good faith here without somebody wishing to investigate the origins of the insult.


I look forward to reading the debate about whether it is possible to insult someone in good faith.

And I bet you know a song about it too ...

What exactly are we talking about?

Sodding off, hogs breath or flipping sideways from sunday.

That's it -

I'm really going -

By the time you read this I will be in bed.

I won't even sneak downstairs to see if someone has replied or not -

You certainly won't catch me posting a reply -

Oh my god I think I'm developing hogs breath.

It's something you get when you spend all your time in front of the computer and don't brush your teeth ...

... and you end up haviing to clean the sod off ... before it builds up too much and you have to flip it sideways to sunday (in the vain hope that you'll do something about it then)

Now you post anon, but your posts are so easy to spot as to be ridiculous.

Mick - The only ridiculous thing being displayed here is your latest paranoia about your latest bogeyman.

No matter what rubbish you (as a 'moderator') publicly and irresponsibly inform our forum to be the case to fuel your latetset witch-hunt - it remains a fact that I have only ever posted on our forum under my membership name.

I will leave anonymous posting and imposed censorship - on our forum to our 'moderators' and will try to set a better example of posting behaviour than (some of) our 'moderators' do.

"I look forward to reading the debate about whether it is possible to insult someone in good faith."

That wait may be a long one. It is demonstrable that before we can make 'sense' of what you said, Lox, we first must define the parameters of the vocabulary. First, what would constitute an insult? Second, what exactly do you mean by faith, and why would you assume that the faith you DO mean is necessarily good (or bad for that matter)? The 'looking forward' bit is also interesting, because it presupposes that you yourself have faith, and subsequently that 'faith' that you reference in your sentence quoted about will probably be shaded by the faith you possess.

Anyway, there are real philosophers here, so I will just say hello and how's it hangin'? Keep well. And you didn't answer me about Suzie Creamcheese.

Date: 28 Sep 06 - 07:51 PM

I think the creamcheese could be a source of the hogbreath

I would argue that looking backwards presupposes considerably more faith, especially when you're coming in to land, however I am pleased that your paragraph recognized more than one faith and appears to be open to the existence and validity of other hitherto unconsidered types of faith.

As for being shaded or illuminated, you can have faith that the parameters of my vocabulary could indeed require a satisfactorily long period of time to define, and in all faith I have no desire to be shady.

I am curious as to how you support the claim that there are real philosophers here or indeed where they are meant to be exactly, or perhaps less facetiously how one is meant to distinguish them from other types (note I have omitted definitions of "real" etc).

other than that - HI - it's hanging loose like a long neck goose - and you?

Everyone has faith, Guest. The only question is, what do they have faith IN? With most people, I find their faith in the power of money is practically unshakeable. This was not so, however, on the decks of the Titanic in its final few minutes...

Oh, I'm sure some deals were offered... ;-) And a few may have been taken. But my point was that there are situations where money will do you no good at all...and people tend to forget about that most of the time. That's because they have a lot of faith in the power of money...far more, in most cases, than in God, King, or country.

Well I haven't been around here for awhile. And y'know what? It feels like have my own life back! I'm much less stressed, happier and best of all, I now have more time than ever to do all the things I LOVE to do! To spend time with the friends/family I'd neglected for so long staring at this computer screen I'd almost forgotten what they looked like. To dream and hypothesize and even dare to voice my ideas if I please, whenever I please, however I please without attracting the venom and bile and bathroom "humour" (?!?) of a slew of complete strangers.

Anything I miss about Mudcat? Well, yeah -- I do miss Mooh's posts. His friendliness and helpful advice/suggestions re guitars and music teaching. So I do check back here once in a while just to see what he's had to share ....

Anyways, it's been wonderful not being here for a bit. I'm really enjoying it! And it's gonna be a much loooooooooonger bit too. Guaranteed!

Just to please a few of you Mudcat relics, of course.

;-)

All the best,
