Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: Liz the Squeak Date: 05 Feb 09 - 12:37 PM OK children, that's enough. Let's get back to the snow. Or not, because in London, it's mostly all gone now... :( LTS |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: kendall Date: 05 Feb 09 - 12:30 PM It is impossible to go through life without stepping on someone's toes. It is very easy to do in such a forum as this because you can't look anyone in the eye while you are trying to communicate. It's been my experience that many insults are generated in the person's own mind when they infer something that was not implied. Most of the people on this forum have above average IQs, and if they want to insult someone, they can do it and the recipient knows it without any question. |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 05 Feb 09 - 12:06 PM as a member who isnt good with words or their meaning I might say something that I don't know how to say I don't use fancy words or anything like that, I;'m jus a simple person and yet ever since I've been on the website I feel sometime other member insult me or bully me and nothing has been done about this I might get thing wrong but as lest I try and sort them out my way. |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: katlaughing Date: 05 Feb 09 - 11:04 AM As a co-moderator, I second what Kendall has said. This thread is being watched and personal attacks will not be tolerated. I would suggest you drop it, now. Use PMs if you need to talk it out. Feel free to PM me if you'd like. kat |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 05 Feb 09 - 10:23 AM ok I'll be the first to say that I'm sorry but I just want to make it clear that before you insult me or anyone else get your proof and then show us it and then maybe I/we can sort it out |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: kendall Date: 05 Feb 09 - 09:23 AM A suggestion from one who is neither a Scot nor an Englishman: Some of you are getting very close to personal attacks, and you know they are not permitted here. Don't be surprised if your posts disappear.Also, hiding behind a pseudonym to insult another member is not allowed either. |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 05 Feb 09 - 08:51 AM OK. she called me a racist I asked her where in o=any of my posts where I was being racist and if she can sohw me then I'm sorry. |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: manitas_at_work Date: 05 Feb 09 - 08:39 AM I said Guest,jag was a liar for calling someone he knows nothing about a coward, not you. Read the fucking posts before you junp on your high horse. If you posted under the name Guest,jag then you're lying about your identity and acting in a cowardly way by posting under a different identity. Now you've just done the selfsame thing as the aforementioned liar therefore you are liar. Where has Megan refused to show you? She probably hasn't even bothered to read your last few posts. Calling Megan a coward is a lie, telling lies is what liars do. |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 05 Feb 09 - 08:06 AM so if you don't know me manitas_at_work how can you say I'm a liar, Megan is a coward I have asked her where I've been racist and Megan has refused to show me. |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 05 Feb 09 - 08:01 AM where have I said things that are racist please show me |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: manitas_at_work Date: 05 Feb 09 - 06:07 AM I know Megan, I don't know anything about you except that you're a liar! |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: GUEST,jag Date: 05 Feb 09 - 05:55 AM tell the to Megan L who is PC in other words a coward someone who is untrstworthy |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: manitas_at_work Date: 05 Feb 09 - 05:46 AM Possibly getting on with a life? You should try it! |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: GUEST,jag Date: 05 Feb 09 - 05:43 AM what has happened to the coward right wing Megan L |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 04 Feb 09 - 05:18 PM oh here's a racist song by that racist group Gaberlunzie acccording to Megan L The Lion On The Gold (Gordon Menzies) For most of my life I have wandered the world Through many proud nations with flags all unfurled But in all of my travels no prouder flag I've found Than the red rampant lion on the golden ground It's the red rampant lion of Scotland North by the Shetlands and south by the Tweed It's honoured forever in story and deed First into battle it always could be found The red rampant lion on the golden ground It's the red rampant lion of Scotland We've lost men at Flodden, at Flanders and Spain More at Culloden and El Alamein But we've never been conquered and still we rally round The red rampant lion on the golden ground It's the red rampant lion of Scotland The thistle is bonnie when flowering alone But what dart or medal she'll cut tae the bone And tae Scotland my darling my hairt is ever bound By the red rampant lion on the golden ground It's the red rampant lion The lion of Scotland Of Scotland united and free (as sung by Gaberlunzie) |

Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: The Sandman Date: 04 Feb 09 - 01:00 PM yes,I agree with Goatfell.MEGAN was pretty rude to me on another thread . |

Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 04 Feb 09 - 12:04 PM megan L where is your proof! |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 04 Feb 09 - 11:53 AM megan L I'm not a racist If I had said thing in the past to make look like I'm a racist well I'm sorry about that but as I say you don't know me and yet you accuse me of racism, I love the human race I don't care if want race or creed you are,my brother in law is English, and so are many of my family, most of my friends are muslim and of othher faiths so how am I racist please tell me. |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: The Sandman Date: 04 Feb 09 - 07:06 AM megan l,what is your problem? |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: Stu Date: 04 Feb 09 - 06:58 AM The Aberdeen reference was because a girl was beaten up at a bus stop for being English, hence the reason for not wanting to visit . . . It always amazes me how there is so much hatred on these islands, but then we all pay for the sins of our fathers. |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: Megan L Date: 04 Feb 09 - 06:39 AM Believe me Sugarfoot the majority of Scots are not like that and you are right about me accusiong him of being racist his printed responses were designed to incite racisim therefore the motivation for them is racist. By the way I have found most of the folk in Aberdeen very tolerant even when I got lost and was crawling my car across junctions trying to find where the heck i was, only one person even sounded thier horn at me. |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: Stu Date: 04 Feb 09 - 04:46 AM Megan L did accuse Goatfell of being racist, and I just got fed up with yet another barely literate anti English/British rant: "there are people that live England and they think that England means Britain then they wonder why the Scots, the Welsh and the Northern Irish well some of them hate them." I don't actually think you're a racist, my apologies if you got that impression from my post. Good luck with the SNP - I'm totally in favour of home rule for Scotland and Wales, a United Ireland and England - in the absence of a constructive way forward the English could always thrash themselves with birch twigs until everyone decides they've atoned for their sins to everyone else's satisfaction. I have a friend who works in the parks department of a small town in Scotland where he is foreman. The men under him call him the 'English C*nt' and refuse to do anything he says, on one occasion telling him to "F*uck off back to Manchester". The management is actually turning a blind eye to this, and he's now looking for another job. Statements like Goatfell's above reinforce the view this might be a majority view north of the border. Luckily the Scots I know personally are great people. Puts me off going to Aberdeen though. |

Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: robomatic Date: 03 Feb 09 - 02:28 PM Congratulations! you've found a way to keep warm by ranting in the snow. We just wrap dead animals round our heads! |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 03 Feb 09 - 01:38 PM what about your English National Party? |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 03 Feb 09 - 01:37 PM i just hate being called Racist so watch yourself or the bullies might get you, as I Have said before where have I said anything racist. these people dont know me these ones that accusing me of being racist. The SNP want home rule for Scotland and the people that live here and the BNP OR the British Nazi Party are just a bunch of racist eejits who I hate, as I say these people that saying I'm Racist are just Bullies that don't even know me. so before you accuse me of being racist find out a bit about me ok. Home rule for England is that racist and what has this got do with snow |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: wyrdolafr Date: 03 Feb 09 - 01:26 PM Goatfell What's the problem here? Before you chipped in about "soft southerners are crying again and getting their facts wrong about Scotland and the north of England", the only person that mentioned anything about the north was Manitas saying "Scotland and the north of England" in reference to Scotland and northern England having relatively worse weather generally when compared to London/South East &c. Then you jump in about with "Manchester is in the north but it really in the South if you live in Scotland". I think even people abroad know that, but the point is no one has actually said different. You're just making strawmen here and accusing people of saying things that haven't actually been said! If you want to vent your hate about "Westminster" then fair enough (London-centrism is a bugbear of mine too), but don't try and do it through a strawman argument over a bit of snow. |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 03 Feb 09 - 12:51 PM show me where in my threads that I hate the English |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 03 Feb 09 - 12:50 PM and where have i said I hate the English as far as I'm concerened these peole that accusing me of being racists are just bullies |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 03 Feb 09 - 12:48 PM last thing since when it was to be a Scotsman who loves his country most of my family is English, Polish, American, Australian and South African and you call me racist. I'm not RASCIST I Hate toses sort of people so for the Last time I'm not racist |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 03 Feb 09 - 12:44 PM MY brother in law is English so accroding to you I should hate him you don't even know me and yet i'm being accused as racist. where is your proof. Read what is says on your passport |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 03 Feb 09 - 12:40 PM where in my post have I said that I hate England, as I have said I don;t hate England nor does anyone of the SNP hate England as a matter of fact some of the people in T=the snp are from England are they racists it's Westminster you the the government that we in the SNP hate what we want is home rule for the people that live in Scotland as a matter of fact I have family that are English cousins but has this got to do with the snow on Monday. anyone who says I'm a racist is talking through a hole in the head |

Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 03 Feb 09 - 12:36 PM i don't hate England it's westminster that the SNP hate |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: Stu Date: 03 Feb 09 - 12:34 PM Is Goatfell being racist? Goatfell, which English do you hate: 1) Just the one's you're not standing in front of telling them you hate them to their face. 2) Asian ones 3) Black ones 4) Jewish ones 5) Ones who have taken that ridiculous bloody oath and become British (are they English of they settle in England? They might say they are.) 6) Ones of mixed race (even fellow islanders perhaps from Wales, Scotland or Ireland) 7) Anyone who likes anything to do with England. Come on son, let's hear it. |
Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: Stu Date: 03 Feb 09 - 12:23 PM "britian is Scotland,England and wales and Northern Ireland isn't British but a part of the UK mind you there are people that live England and they think that England means Britain then they wonder why the Scots, the Welsh and the Northern Irish well some of them hate them."

Subject: RE: Coping with snow in Britain From: goatfell Date: 03 Feb 09 - 12:00 PM this a song which was written by Jim McLean Keir Hardie was a man who came from our land, And said all men should be free, But Wilson's in his place and it's a different case, And he won't be getting any help from me, 'Cause he lets Yankees in the Holy Loch and backs them in Vietnam For the Ibos in Biafra he just didn't give a damn. "It's thirteen years of Tory rule that got us in this jam!" (spoken like Wilson) Ach I'll no' vote for Harold, no' me, no' me. I'll be voting for the SNP. Captain Heath wants my vote, this messer in a boat, He says he'll tighten law and order, They'll be polismen galore, chappin' on each Scottish door, Till he's satisfied he's pacified the Border! Remember back there in the good old days before the Labour came, When the Tories were in power, they were saying just the same. "It really isn't our fault, chin up now, play the game" (spoken like Ted heath) Ach I'll no' vote for Edward, no' me, no' me. I'll be voting for the SNP Jeremy Thorpe does his bit and on the fence he'll sit, Arguing about Federation, But we all know the score for a Union's been before, That's why Scotland's just a region no' a nation. For he's a wishy-washy-waverer with Grimmond for a pal, He thinks we're all too stupid or too poor to rule ourself, "We're all English, I mean British, I mean, dash it, what the hell!" (spoken like Thorpe ) Ach I'll no' vote for Jeremy, no' me, no' me, I'll be voting for the SNP. |
