'taking' offense says it all really...

Selfish bastards with a monumental sense of entitlement..

It's bad manners to take something without asking first...

I am not offended yet. I think that shows a disappointingly low standard of vitriol here.

And did you realise if you are a performer you can "grow your audience" - I thought if this ever happened it would be the audience that did the growing not me - perhaps if you water them enough?

My pet hate is TIMES
You can have 1 PLUS 2 but you ADD the numbers.
And when I went to school you could have
2 TIMES 3 or you could MULTIPLY 2 and 3. Now (on Countdown) they TIMES them - no, no, no.

Hey Tiger Balls, its Pecker. Saw your Tweet about Trump. Man it was like you pistol whipped a blind kid. When the herd loses its way the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray. But Dude that was A real HARSHMALLOW right between the hockey sticks.

Its good that you guys have been through enough crap that unimportant egos have no need to take offensiveness personally.
Its an important measure of wisdom, unless preachy crap like this is offensive enough to gag a goat.

There just isn't enough people taking offense nowadays.

Our new kitchen is nearly finished after about 10 days of madness.

I'm sure someone could take offense at that if they try hard enough. Go on. You know you want to :-)

At the risk of being wierdly smeared, sued and screwed, the lewd orange one is also known as 'He who should not be insulted'.

How shall we not insult you master? Shall we not mention your immature stupidity? Your vengence when bribes are not paid?
Your actions when called before justice? Oh how shall we ignore your short comings as a human being, oh great Master?

At the risk of being wierdly smeared, sued and screwed, the lewd orange dude is also known as 'He who shall be obeyed'.

Thou shalt not insult him with facts.
Thou shalt not insult him with truth.
Thou shalt not offend him with reason
Thou shalt not tender history but his own
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's truth
Thou shalt not take any dictator before me
Thou shalt not honor anyone but my children
Thou shalt not covet any golden towers but mine
Thou shalt not golf at any golf courses but mine
Thou shalt see that everything is mine, this land is my land

I am offended by this thread because - although its intention is to offend me - it does not offend me!

Thus, this thread at the same time offends me and does not offend me / it should vanish in a cloud of logic ...

Glad to hear it Andreas :-) We have moved from Salford now to the edge of the Yorkshire Dales and the Tour de Yorkshire passes our front door sometimes so we now see a lot of cycling. If you ever pass this way pop in. You will be more than welcome.

Norman is an android whose head exploded, kind of, because of human logic. One of the best old Trek episodes.

Then there is Baum, a smart alec AI smart bomb that decided to arm itself and countdown to the dismay of a spaceship crew in the movie Dark Star.
The debate with Baum, programed by humans, is a cult classic.
Baum could kick Norman's ass.

There is a computer programmed by, I think, the Chirpsithra (who get drunk on electric shocks), to acquire all knowledge, but when it does instead of telling them it just shut down. Why keep working if you ken all...

The Philosophy of Logic is the best philosophy
One simple bit of logic, makes college life sublime
Now instead of study, we have leisure time.

Because ..
The more you study, the more you know,
The more you know, the more you forget,
The more you forget, the less you know,
So Why Study?

The less you study, the less you know,
The less you know, the less you forget,
The less you forget, the more you know,
So Why ..., why, why study?


For computing the more you compute
the more data you have to become searchable
the more you search the less you have time to compute
So why compute
