Come out come out, where ever you are...

[bigbadwolf]

I don't remember being rude/nasty to Keef either. Please clarify your reason for pointing that out.

Of course I'm glad I started this thread. It's just a shame that some people got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning.

[sophiesofa]

Crippes. Can I hide behind you Tony hiding behind Dazie? I think everyone should kiss and make up.

[MrBen]

ok - I take back the warts bit.

And I'm off outside now - its 29C in my garden. And I think I just saw Sean Mac in my vegetable patch but it could be heat haze. It probably be wasn't though. He'll no doubt be there. Hiding under a courgette plant and talking about films.

[????]

it can't be him - He's working on that loft conversion over the other side Mr B

Come on people it's toooooo hot for all this aggro (apart from on 'On the Ball' obviously)

[Brendan]

Your right there MrBen, the SeanMac is omnipresent. I?m sure there?s more than one of him.

BBW you?re doing yourself no favours with the machismo. Considering some of the insulting and offensive stuff you have decided to post up here Jah has been perfectly entitled to say you what he has. A lot of people may not have done so but Jah speaks his mind and he wasn?t being unreasonable.

The fact that he is 20 years your senior (and you are aware of this) also means (well at least where I come from) that he has the little bit more licence to speak his mind than you as the younger man do. Within reason of course.

Innit! Respect for your elders! ... to a point.

[RosieH]

To be honest, I don't really hold with that point in this context. Because let's face it, if Jah is turning up with two beautiful women on his arm, it's not really as though he needs anyone to offer him a seat.

More a case of showing everyone a bit of respect and common courtesy.

Save it for the ring boys. We've enough with those blow-in types fighting on the Lane as it is...

Belive me that's not what I was talking about at all. In fact it couldn't be further from what I meant.

It?s got nothing to do with people needing something because they are somehow weaker or less able. It has to do with respect for experience and standing.

Anyway people in England don?t often get me on this point they seem to prefer the insipid borderline aggressive rudeness that passes for manners in London. Or the morally vacuous but hugely sanctimonious crud that some people flaunt as manners in order to show themselves to be of some kind of better class.

[dulwichmum]

Can I just wade in here and say that I have, on occasion, laughed with you BBW. But in general, you are crude and charmless. One of the reasons that I seldom come on the forum anymore is because some of the posts you have written have turned my stomach.

[RosieH]

Ahh Brendan, see where you're coming fron, but think I still disagree in this context.

It's a bit nebulous, but I'm not sure at which point I give someone respect for being older than me (a year, 10 years, when their hair turns grey?) Guess for me it's more a generational thing, if pushed I suppose I see it as over 60s if I had to try to put an age to it, and I'm not sure it would apply to a clearly virile man in the prime of his life with beautiful companions on his arm (although an entirely other sort of respect due for that!)

Anyway, potato potahto, think we agree that people should all show a little more respect.

[mockney piers]

?Ni?os ni?os, c?lmense!

Come on BBW, the maverick poster who shocks sleepy forumites form their bugaboo induced torpor act is getting a bit tired.

You've often proved yourself witty, clever, even erudite. I'm in no position to dictate anything to anyone but I bet I'm not alone in being happier with your good humour and up to here *does Hispanic waggling flat hand near top of head gesture* with your 'dickhead's 'shirt lifter's and general pointless swearymaryness interjected at EVERY opportunity.

Swearing and crudeness, like many things, benefit from less is more.

[bignumber5]

people should all show a little more respect

And not just towards elders but across the board: I think a smidge of mutual respect is sadly lacking.

Respect in general is something that feels like it has slowly been phased out of UK life, and I find it incredibly refreshing when I come into contact with it from external origins. Not to needlessly join the wolf hunt, but Facebook stalking and similar, when taken to the point of badgering people, is exactly such a lack of respect. People have boundaries that they like to maintain, such as between online-forum type personas and their actual life, and it is nice and courteous to respect that...

I agree with that.

You still don't really get my point on the other stuff though. In fact your ideas kind of highlight how people all (everyone that is) seem to miss the point of manners. But it's too much to get into. I'm not out to chnge the world today.

I'm well aware of your displesure and resentment of me D.M and I have made a conserted effort to rein my neck back in as a sacrifice of my bile and viterol to get you back on board.

I do however take exeption to your cowardly jumping on the band wagon of discontent against me that has risen from what I believe was a well meaning thread designed to invite some more shy posters from the wood work. I now realise that my efforts were in vain but I did not intend this topic to end out as it has.

[mockney piers]

Back on topic, many people have very good reasons to try to maintain their anonimity online, though even some of those are acually happy to say hello in the flesh.

David carnell on the other hand would be forced to kill anyone who unearthed his true identity!!!

[dulwichmum]

"I do however take exeption to your cowardly jumping on the band wagon of discontent against me"

I am not being cowardly in my jumping on the bandwagon. It feels creepy the way you stalked me on Facebook and told me you had photos of me etc. I am voicing a concern - no sooner are you back from a ban, then you are once again, back to your old self, with talk of "playing with" yourself etc.

Really now, I have said it all before. This talk is not intelligent, it is base and crude and offensive.

Brendan, it may be too much to get into, but I'm intrigued. And I can assure you that I really don't miss the point of manners.

I don't associate manners exclusively with giving someone a seat: that was an, albeit glib, shorthand for deference to the older and wiser. My point there being that I think to qualify as older and wiser, you've got to have been around a certain length of time, and the person in question hasn't.

My other point being that I think everyone deserves to benefit from good manners, not just those that have "experience and standing".

I've taken into consideration what everyone has said about me being creepy and I understand, but it has been blown out of proportion to extent that I'm being branded as some sort of predator, I'm not.

You find my humour to be crude and offensive. It is true that I do have a barrack room humour and can conjour up images of severe brutality and violence but it is only in my head, not being mentally directed at the those I've seen on facebook. I have a vivid imagination but I wont apologise for it.

I've never said this but I think that I might as well get it off my chest now.

Even though it is woven into the content of your blog and 'persona' on the forum I find your advocation and humour directed at the vile trade in people utterly despicable. You may find it suits the character of Dulwichmum to have a regular string of housekeepers that you suggest have been smuggled into the country against their will. It is in fact (as I'm sure you're aware) a heinous trade that brings barbaric suffering on those it manipulates. To joke about the suffering this incurrs is crude in the least.

Another aspect of your character is the mocking and degrading of those in financial difficulty. I'm no homeowner and I rarely have a pot to piss in but there are people on this site who've suffered serious, serious financial hardship due to the economic downturn which you portray your 'husband' as someone who may or may not be responsible. Some may have even lost their homes and there are those in other parts who have even taken their own lives and worse due to their sudden difficulty. For you to then parade yourself as some one forced to endure Morrisons and go about saying "buck up sweetie, it'll be over soon" whilst there are some on their knees with no where to turn is literally kicking them in the face while down.

I admit that I do have my faults and I can go over the top but so can you.

That's all I have to say.

Take care D.M.

On the ball?

Is that a new sex game?

[giggirl]

Brendan, like RosieH I'm intrigued by your posts on this thread. Are we really that ill manned as a nation? It's very sad if we are. Do you really think that we are worse/better than other countries?

Don't you think though that a lot is to do with accepting personal responsibility for how we behave towards others?

Well I must say you took criticism much better than a certain other individual who shall remain unnamed who flounced, quit whilst claiming to be banned, stalked then solicited outside forces who attempted to bring the forum down with denial of service attacks. Compared to that you're an absute sweetheart wolfie ;-)

Give as good as you get, and do it eloquently.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

I can honestly say, Brendan has displayed the most exquisite manners I've ever come across in a man under 70.

[mockney piers]

I'll vouch for his being an old school gent in his 'Brendan' persona. I'm not quite sure what to make of his 'Tony.London.Suburbs' one mind.

[HAL9000]

I've been working on a missing pet cat and dog detector in response to recent posts on the forum. It's based on pet ID chips. However, I've discovered that those chips have an audio backdoor - which I've now hacked! My detector picked up this from somewhere around Forest Hill. If anyone can identify this sad little moggy, please let me know. Sounds like he needs a little TLC:

Doink ...

Hmmm ...

I'm pretty sure it's made of rubber ...

Doink ...

It bounces like rubber ...

eeeeeyuk ...

It tastes like rubber ...

My bone is made of rubber...

Dum dee dum .... it's rubber ... dum dee dum ... it's only rubber ... dum dee dum ...

They've given me a RUBBER bone!

I'll show 'em ... I will ...

Doink ...

Dum dee dum ... dum dee dum ... dum dee dum ...

OK. OK! I know is only rubber ...

... but it's all MINE and I love it - slurp slurp, lick lick ... wha'chew looking at dawg?
