We have exchanged P.M.'s he even knows my name. Why do you say crap, when you don't have a clue what is going on ? You just like to get involved?
When you are not a woman and the person knows you are not a woman it is indeed insulting. I am sure you would like everyone refering to you as male, or perhaps you would, not everyone does.
Keep in mind ...[text shortened]... concern of yours. I indeed will think, (believe) what I want as you and all other posters do.
I replied to your post because your attack on Grampy seemed unjustified, and your post seemed slightly sexist. I'd have done the same if it had been the other way round. (I have called out Grampy on sexist posts before.)

Really...So does my cat 😛
What did yous learn today at school children ?
"Baa" said the first lamb
"That's good young one" said the ewe.
"Baa" said the second lamb
"Excellent pronunciation little one, have some grass" said mother sheep
"Moo" said the third lamb
"Moo ??" said the ewe "what sort of talk is this ?"
"We were doing foreign languages", said the lamb 😛
Originally posted by NordlysI am sure Bobby is pleased, with your great concern for him. You are entitled to think what you want, as am I. If you think I am going to sit by while Bobby throws insults at me, both you and him will have to re-think that, and I would do exactly the same thing if it should happen again.

This Down syndrome kid is playing in the street, and he hears the ice cream van jingle in the distance. He runs up to his front door, and bangs on it shouting....
(from now on, the italics will be used to show the voice of the kid.....)
"muum muuum, ice cream van....ice cream van
Then, when his mother answers the door, he says "10 pee fu cone pleese
His mother gives him 10p, and he runs down to the van and says " 10 pee cone pleese"
The Van driver makes a cone up, and sticks it in the boys face.
The boy rubs off the ice cream, and runs back to his mother...."10 pee fu coner pleese"
The mother looks at him puzzled, but thinks nothing more of it. Hands him another 10p, and he runs back to the van happy.
"10 pee cone pleese" says the little boy
The Van driver makes up a cone, and sticks in in the little downs kid's face.
The kid runs up to his door again, and says "10 pee fu cone pleese "
This time his mother is suspicious, and when she hand the boy the 10 pence, follows behind him to see what happens.
The kid goes up to the van and says "10 pee cone pleese"
The Van driver makes up a cone and sticks it in the boys face, at this his mother rushes up to the van...."What are you doing ? how dare you do that to my sun"
The Van driver says " tell him tu stop maikin a fool u me" 😛

Keep in mind th ...[text shortened]... al, not that everyone and their dog can't comment on it. That is where the insult comes from.
Being a man/woman myself I feel very strongly about this issue and just had to let this out.
Originally posted by thymeWhen I attach the quote like this I am talking to you....Pay attention, that is exactly what was done. If you don't know what is going on, best not to say ANYTHING !

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyRusty, if this is the post that started all this kerfuffle, you're not on the same planet as I am.
Why keep on fingering it to death? For God sake, either have or gather up the man/womanhood to let it go.
Man/woman is a bit outdated, but it's meaning is exactly the same as if he'd used Xe - would you have got uptight about that? I've always assumed you're male, but I've slipped up several time before in my guesses, so even when I'm practically positive I still say he/she.
Just go find something else to do for a bit and stop making a fuss about a storm in a teacup. Or tell me to bag my head, at least then you'll have a legitimate topic to argue with!
