Thank you. Now we all agree that it's none of your business.

Originally posted by HandyAndySo......Randolf, lets get this. If its in a public forum then its my business as a member of the public and i have every right to ascertain why content was contributed. I may ask questions, seek clarification of salient points etc etc but not ask why you posted it. Ummmm sorry but that does not make any sense.

“Never argue with stupid people. They will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.”
My motives for posting anything anywhere, public or private, are none of your business. Does that make sense?
Originally posted by HandyAndyNo it doesn't make any sense, if you don't want people to ask you about your posts, the content of those posts, your motivations for posting then don't post them in a public forum. That makes sense, to think that you can simply post and then when someone asks you about your post say that its none of their business makes NO SENSE. If you don't want people to ask you about your posts, their content, the motives behind them etc etc in a public forum then don't post them there, slaphead. You have no jurisdiction over what questions may be asked and to think that you have is delusional.

So what were you doing with Bobs poem in hand Randolf? Were you caressing it like Gollum, my precious? Hoping that it had been plagiarized to confront Bobs with and publicly discredit him?

opposing arguments, but you do not have the right to demand that the poster disclose his/her
motives for posting.
By the way, continuing this foolish thread ad nauseam is only hurting Bobby.
Is that your motive for posting?
Originally posted by HandyAndyMy motive is trying to get you to fess up to digging the dirt on Bobs. This will free your mind and cleanse your conscience which to all intents and purposes is demonstrably defunct. We wont call it an exorcism, more of a wake up call.😵

Originally posted by HandyAndyYou see Randolf i tried to reach out to you, made room in my on-line presence for you, dodged the bullets, the electronic eyes and the machines guns in the hallway and then you then go and call me stupid. Hard to respect that Andy, you know what I am saying. I am not stupid Andy and even if i was why should it make a difference? You read 'Of Mice and men right? Steinbecks book. There is a rather telling moral lesson in it Andrew, you see, you don't need to be an intellectual giant to be a civil human being,

Guy don't need no sense to be a nice fella. ... Take a real smart guy and he ain't hardly ever a nice fella
Isn't that awesome?
Originally posted by robbie carrobieYou're right, Robbie, I shouldn't call you stupid. Ignorant, maybe, or rude. Or possibly shallow or crass
