Originally posted by stellspalfieTotally in sync with you, Stellspalfie, but the fact remains that the 'nok' street slang has been around for decades because
"they're not our kind" is so wrong i struggle to think where to start. what is "our kind"? nationality, town, street, sex, eye colour, human, cheese lover, alcoholic. no such thing as "our kind" as far as im concerned.
of cultural bias, intellectual snobbery, knee-jerk social rejection and pejorative repudiation of both groups and individuals.

Just like you... crazy enough to be and do something a little different (in your
neighborhood and in cyberspace). Cat's leaving the birds alone these days?

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyYeah it flew away, we never saw it on the floor and it seamed undamaged, so I think it recovered just fine.
