Hypothetical meet up

You went to university for only 9 months? I guess you decided it wasn’t for you

I went to university for 4 years. I found that much of what they wanted me to do was not for me.

He never said anything to upset me.

Likewise. - I don't agree with a lot of his views, but don't let that prevent us from getting along.

I suppose he expresses his views in other forums where I don't go. I haven't been disturbed by what he says in this forum.

Don't venture into Debates. 🙂

I never do, for many reasons. 🙂

I don't understand why you even mention him. What Earl and I have in common should be no concern of yours. How you feel about him should be taken up with him, not me.

Would you ever call him out in public if he said something vile to someone you like?

What has this to do with the OP?

I might.

You can make of it what you will.

OK

Why do you comment on our mutual flirting, don't you have better things to focus on?

Yes of course; but you flirt with Earl of Trumps publicly, and he with you. It’s interesting behaviour in a public forum. You then go on about him being a gentleman because he lets you win at chess, then (after ghost gives you the idea) you pretend you were “joking”. This is also interesting behaviour.

Earl of Trumps is a hard right Trumpist who has often made racist comments in the debates forum. You like him because he flirts with you, I don’t like him because of his political attitudes and questionable values.

Each to our own. Either way it’s all interesting to me.

If you have political issues with him, then Debates is the right place, no doubt. Earl and I don't exchange many posts here so it should be easy for you to just let it pass. Nobody else is interested so why you? I think it is pretty harmless.

For the reasons given in the post you are replying to.

Do you flip a coin each day to decide which forum regular to go after?

Dive has a double sided coin "petty" & "nasty"
